Skoolstah! Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 So I started painting again after a long hiatus last summer and bought a Chaos battleforce box to start adding to my existing army. Here are some pictures: http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/7461553/398453585.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/398494440.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401503818.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401503819.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401503822.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401500878.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401528499.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401528501.jpg Raptors http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/23868905/398515735.jpg Chosen http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401700222.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401700225.jpg WIP rhino http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401768769.jpg Comments and criticism welcome!

Lachdannan Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Really nice colour scheme there! Like it alot, and good painting to boot. Hope there is more where that came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah! Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 Thanks a bunch. :P I'm having a bit of trouble making the rhino "pop" adequately, but hopefully some spikes and chaosy stuff manages to cover that. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIDM Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I really like them, but IMO crab/lobster claws on a human is a bit silly, really silly in fact. I always laughed so hard at this guy/thing http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-AFig1N97pgY/TYo2tSkVlFI/AAAAAAAAGIE/XtSb8uu0uHo/s400/HeManClawfulComplete.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kierdale Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Very nice work! Great colours. They look nice and uniform, but with each squad individual enough. I particularly like the raptors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah! Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 Thanks for the feedback. :) The raptors took me awhile to paint, as they're the old metal models, as opposed to the finecast ones. The constant chipping of the paint was driving me nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Carnelian Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Love that color scheme! Got any fluff to go with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah! Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Thanks. Nah, was gonna make them a Slaanesh-worshipping legion heavy with daemonettes, but after they :cussed up the codex and made all daemons generic, I switched to undivided. Didn't bother to come up with new fluff to compensate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 How about showing us the fluff you originally came up with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah! Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Don't think I even have it anymore. Was hastily scribbled on a piece of paper that is probably lost after I moved. I'll cobble it together again someday when I feel creative again. :lol: In the meantime, here are some updated pictures of the WIP rhino: http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401824157.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401824158.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401824159.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401824160.jpg Still missing a head on the combibolter guy and some chains and stuff.

Skoolstah! Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 Working on berzerkers. 3 complete so far: http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401935162.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401935163.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401935164.jpg Decided to paint them in my standard army colors, since my noise marines and plague marines are also painted in the same scheme.

Lachdannan Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Those bezerkers look great! Good to see them in another scheme for once. Awesome looking Rhino as well. You should be proud of these guys. http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401824160.jpg Though I think I can here them banging to get out.

tyrannosaurus Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Great colour scheme and I especially like the faces, I do my skin blue too but these look better than mine :( - could I get a recipe for the faces please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah!

Thanks for looking. I use Vallejo Game Color paints, but you can also use the GW equivalent. Start off with a mix of 1:1 Sombre Grey (GW: Shadow Grey) and flow-aid. The flow-aid should be thinned with 20 parts water vs. 1 part flow-aid. Paint another layer of the Sombre Grey/flow-aid mix, then paint with 1:1 mix of Wolf Grey (GW: Space Wolves Grey) and flow-aid. Add layers where needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah!

Sergeant Cohen Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Great Color Scheme. What colors do you use for the armor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah! Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Thanks alot! The color I use is Scurvy Green from Vallejo. Or if you're using GW paint, it's Scaly Green. Think it's been discontinued, though. :devil: A little update on my possessed: http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401987476.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/401987477.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoolstah! Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 Took a break from the battleforce and started working on a model I've left unpainted for 3 years: http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL725/2563728/14594283/402473216.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razblood Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I thought these might be Alpha Legion when I saw the armour scheme :lol: Very crisp work :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
