Hyaenidae Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Dude, yes. Love the old model, man, he looks great! I'm quite partial to the psychopath with the chain-glaive too, very nice bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 Dude, yes. Love the old model, man, he looks great! I'm quite partial to the psychopath with the chain-glaive too, very nice bro. Most kind, seeing as you're the one who's minis tempted me to start MM in the first place. Flamer 2: Wanted to use the Forgeworld PH flamers ideally, but the damn things wouldn't fit! Arrrrggghhh. One more to go, then I might start thinking about some paint for these boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obscura Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I'm reminded of the quote by Chesty Puller when he saw the Flamethrower for the first time, "So where do I put the Bayonet?" Â I can't believe i haven't done that yet. Â Keep up the great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 And the last Marine is done, using Khan's arms and swapping the blade for a Wolves chainsword: Now all I have to do is paint the beggars...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I see what you were going for pose-wise, but (no offence) it looks wrong here.I would suggest twisting the torso and head to help give him that assault look, like the khan model itself. Right now, he looks like he just realized he didn't use Duracell batteries in his chainsword. Â Looking forwaord to more, man. Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 Like I say, the head in the photo isn't actually glued down at all, I think it slipped around just before the pic was taken - I agree though, the angle at the waist is definitely up for change. I have no desire to try to reassemble that weapon/arm combo again though. Â Precise movements are not easily performed by those with fat fingers! Â Love the idea though! Â "Crap.

NightHunters Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Loving the second flamer, really nice! Â And yeah, bit of posing on the last guy and he could look very angry! Â FTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Okay, base coats on: The Khan chainblade will have to stay the way he is, sadly - I tried repositioning him and broke the damn thing. Rhino: Hardly the best photos in the world, but they serve to give some idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 I proudly present the Mark 1 Imperial Bumblebees! :D Well, that's what they remind me of anyway. This is the first coat of Sunburst Yellow over the Iyanden Darksun basecoat. Now, 1000 Heathens has 2 coats of Sunburst on his, it seems, I'm just concerned whether that would be too bright or not. Pre dirtying up, that is. Opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHunters Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Look good to me, 2nd coat can't harm, sepia wash to tone it down if need be and if you're going heavy on the battle damage there won't b much left of the base anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I use a watered down Devlan Mud myself, gives it more of a filthy look. Ideyan (sp?) darksun, sunburst yellow, devlan mud, sunburst again over raised areas, chipping / damage, highlights, weathering powder...is my painting sequence. Gives it that nice dirty mustard look, but hey, if you perfer a lighter color, go for it man! Looking good so far, bro! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Pictures are not the best but they give some idea. Chapter badge still to apply and I have to designate one as the scholar-brother, but pretty much satisfied.
