Poukis Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hello everyone! It's been a while! Join me as I will try (in vain?) to paint a Baal Predator and a Stormraven in 2 days! It's been half a year since I've painted anything and I'm planning to paint them in a high standard (I had a plog that I must resurrect eventually) so these days are going to be fun, fun, fun! Pics when I get home! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249731-insane-vow-completion-effort/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 This I would very much like to see! I really hope you get it done, time is beyond tight! C'mon, go to berserk mode! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249731-insane-vow-completion-effort/#findComment-3025797 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poukis Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Aaaand after a really full day at the office I faltered... I thought it would be impossible... And it might really be... But screw logic, eating and sleeping! We have a vow to complete and our chapter's honour is at stake! 00:12 First pics... http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/570/dsc0239mp.th.jpg What they should look like in roughly 40 hours... http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/2958/dsc0238tr.th.jpg I have never attempted something like this before, it will be fun :( So quick question to anybody who sees this and answers, I was generally playing a mobile list with baal predators, las-predators, a vindicator and some razorbacks. If I added the stormraven to that list what loadout should I choose?? Any suggestions are good, it's just that I like to glue things on and I have no idea what's good for it!! :lol: I'll start with the pred to give time for any answers!! There we go!! EDIT: This has gotten even more fun now that I've realised that I have forgotten my tank brush back home :P EDIT2: 01:52: Aaand finished basecoating :/ I realised that I also forgot my spray can and had to do it by brush :( Also identified major possible problem as I only have half a pot of scorched brown left.. I'll cross that bridge when I have to :/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249731-insane-vow-completion-effort/#findComment-3025980 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for the hard one ;) EDIT: 03:21. aaand Scorched brown is over :( I'll have to go buy a new one tomorrow.. At least I managed to finish the first hand on the stormraven... Hopefully tomorrow will be more productive :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249731-insane-vow-completion-effort/#findComment-3026065 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Looks good Poukis! If they look anything like your completed Baal it'll be a jaw dropping success! Very impressive stuff - keep at it!

Poukis Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Gaaah, I give up! (for today?) I finished the pilot and gunner plus some tiles, plus some red in general, but I'm just too tired :P I think that I'm getting old ;) It's not too hard though, since it will be mainly red, it doesn't have too much detail. Aaanyhow, I'll try to do it on the following days but I'm really doubtful because I don't have any time at all :) But it feels so close... I might MAKE time :ermm: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249731-insane-vow-completion-effort/#findComment-3026952 Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Legion Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Looking awesome!!! That was the look I was going for for when I make my vehicles. I'm glad I got to see what they'll look like someday.
