Crypt Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Hi all, Here is my first blood angels themed army, a small Lamenters force, this is my first attempt at painting both yellow and battle damages wich are pretty heavy (especially on the furioso) there will be some additions to this force in a near future, I'll post them here when they''ll be done. dreadnought : http://img541.imageshack.us/img541/6664/s6304209z.jpg death company squad : http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/4644/20110707202710.jpg http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/8167/20110703115107.jpg Lemartes (Old School) : http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/844/20110902140138.jpg/ Tactical squad 1 : http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/9990/20111016042749.jpg Tactical squad 2 : http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/9915/20120310111527.jpg Commanding Officer : http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/107/20120226232843.jpg Sanguinary priest : http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/8061/20120306171058.jpg Honor guard : http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2240/20120307165913.jpg Hope you'll like 'em !

Tellos05 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Very nice lamenters you got there. Good use of bits and poses! The checks are spot on how are you doing them?

Durus Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Beautiful army! Not really a fan of metal hair on marines, but the painting is outstanding. Are you going to add some battle damage on the Death Company as well ?

Doghouse Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Very nice indeed. Lovely yellow you've got going on and the weathering is really nice. Hope to see more of these guys. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3018769 Share on other sites More sharing options...
killingstuff Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Love the Lamenters scheme, Yellow armour with Black and White checkers is badass. Also you've executed the yellow and the checkers brilliantly, the battle damage is also a nice toutch.

Lachdannan Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Really nice marines you have there. The yellow is pulled off nicely and i'm a big fan of the battle damage. I think it might have been a bit too heavy on the dreadnought, but that's just taste. Still, cool looking force, what are you planning to add next?

Crypt Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share Posted March 19, 2012 Thanks a lot ! @Brother Syth : Next elements are : 2 rhinos (old ones), space hulk's terminators, An old techmarine, a librarian made out from GK bits, a chaplain, and maybe a stormraven if I have enough time to do all this in the next month... @HJL : Correct, but it's only at an early stage of painting : barely undercoated, I have enough work on it to keep me busy a full year I think ! @durus : Not sure I tried to add battle damage to the DC but failed so for now they'll stay clean until I find a way to do it good. @tellos05 : To do the checks I start by drawing the lines to create the pattern before filling in the black squares and it takes lots of time to do ... Thanks again to all of you ! Crypt Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3019180 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Lovely effects on those models. And a gorgeous yellow to boot. Kudos good sir, kudos. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3019574 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakkin'Outta'Control Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Love the subtle conversion of the old metal space marine captain. The rest is pretty darn amazing aswell!! I've always wanted to try battle damage on tanks/walkers and if I did, I want it to turn out like your dread. Gratz on the great models sir Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3019733 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crypt Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Thanks a lot for all those kind words Here is my last addition to the army : the Space hulk Terminators. Small changes on 'em, mostly to remove the Blood Angels shoulderpads or adapt them to the Lamenters, I tried to keep the conversion at the minimum. I hope you'll like em ! http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/1946/20120414160424.jpghttp://img254.imageshack.us/img254/6671/20120414160447.jpghttp://img820.imageshack.us/img820/4008/20120414160539.jpg Crypt Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3039475 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lestat Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Your DC and Terminators are really bad-ass! Superb paintjob - a really nice, solid yellow and the reds and purples set it off nicely. The dread is a little too battle damaged - but thats just my personal taste.

reckoning Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Very nice yellow youve created here. Those SH terminators are my favorite. Looking forward to more.

augustmanifesto Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 hahah jesus this is awesome. My hats off to you sir -- not only a great force, but a great YELLOW force. Somehow, there tends to be many fewer good forces which are yellow...B) My only criticism (please, forgive me) is that the battle damage on the Dread seems overdone in the wrong places and with too large brown areas. But hey, what do I know, I have yet to conquer yellow like you, sire ;) What are you thinking for the bases?

Crypt Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Thanks guys for the nice comments ! I really start to think to redo the dread to decrease the amount of battle damages... If I avoid lazyness :D For the bases they are all done with a ship floor theme (way to fit both badab era and post badab), some are coming frome microart and some are scratchbuilt. I'll add pictures of it later. Crypt Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3042744 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crypt Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Hi there, Here is the last addition to my army : a Librarian, mostly from grey knights bits and a bit of greenstuff hope you'll like him ! http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/1677/20120422025345.jpghttp://img696.imageshack.us/img696/4458/20120422025501.jpghttp://img208.imageshack.us/img208/49/20120422025526.jpg Crypt Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3044958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Very cool army man, the Libby is great. The Termies are my favourite by far though. I always metaphorically kick myself in the balls for not being involved with the hobby when that Space Hulk set was released... It was the original Space Hulk that got me interested in GW!

Rogan Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Very cool army man, the Libby is great. The Termies are my favourite by far though. I always metaphorically kick myself in the balls for not being involved with the hobby when that Space Hulk set was released... Speaking about being an unlucky chap: Back then, I asked my girlfriend whether I should invest my money in a few of these sets or not. Well, guess what she adviced me to do! Today, I saw two sets of SH being sold on eBay - 200 € each. A man can just bear so much. Worst of all: I do own a copy of the game - factory sealed... Well, sorry for all my whining. Your lamenters do look great - I'm thinking of starting another SM style army, and your Lammies are certainly inspiring. :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249236-lamenters-force/#findComment-3045335 Share on other sites More sharing options...
