esinhorn Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 Not sure like I said Cheapo,but my current is a cheapo and has served me fine for years. I wanted a new compressor and brush w/built in cup and found that one with both.Extras never Hurt Here is the link http://stores.ebay.com/funhobby Here are my models for the book Characters from Left to Right Justicar Gallo,Malchadiel,Dumenidon,Hyperion http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/001-83.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/002-85.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/003-82.jpg I did Sothis later but switched it up by moving the auspex Sothis now has the swords since he was described as being tutored by Dumenidon And Malchadiel has the Psycannon for gaming purposes ( I feel better fits his tech nature to have him wield a relic like a psycannon) http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/004-76.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinhorn Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Last night it was bothering me that Malchadiel has a Psycannon and not twin swords. Enter the Clones. I used the exact same bits to make a twin falchon version of Malchadiel John Woo Hyperion coming very soon ;) http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/006-56.jpg I masked with the smallest tamiya tape and protected the mini with Silly Putty( The worlds best flexible masking material) http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/007-48.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/008-39.jpg Well my first go with airbrush blades had mixed sucess,just need practice is all,did'nt help the airbrush spit water on the blade right at the crucial point. I used Praxi White drypaint to kind of pull it back togther. I am having problems getting the reflection right on the falchon though. Gotta few spares of those that I will practice with. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/010-26.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/014-12.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/011-21.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/012-20.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinhorn Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 Second batch of blades came out much better,getting the hang on it. Even for the Falchion too. I used an old Metal Kngiht I had to be Brotherhood Champion. The metal ones had cooler bolters /w belt feeds. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/002-89.jpg I have the alternates for Hyperion and Malchadiel http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/003-85.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/001-86.jpg I also picked up Crowe http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/004-80.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 So After working on the Brotherhood Champion for like for four hours today,I finish him and I am very happy with the results. Then this Build magically appears,Needless to say this is the new Champ http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/008-41.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/007-49.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/006-58.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 Ok so the Brotherhood Champion got a total rework from the metal body. But I am so much more happy with this Champion,looks like what I picture Janus to look like. I have a good handle on NMM powerblades now. This might be a good Pre-Heresy Style for the Original 8 or super fancy Purifyers Templar Tabards,DA hooded Helms,Knight body. I also reworked the base,using a choice terrain bit that was waiting for the right model. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/012-21.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/013-15.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/010-27.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/009-32.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/011-22.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinhorn Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 Banged out the Stormraven today,just need to add a couple of transfers and some light weathering. I added a Knight chest and pad for the pilot,the gold Aegis looks good through the cockpit. Never happy with a stock model I scribed out the flaps and positioned them down. Which is accurate for a aircraft on the deck or coming in low for a attack run. I fiend for the day they make plastic Thunderbolts. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/001-89.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/002-92.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/003-88.jpg I also finished of this Termie Justicar with Thrice Blessed Daemonhammer and Psycannon http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/004-83.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/005-69.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/006-59.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/007-50.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 Finished off the Stormraven,a good job I could of done better. The transfers I wanted to use broke and I had no spares,so I had to made do with what I used. I did not preshade the aircraft either,but that aside I still have a good looking model http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/008-42.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/009-33.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/010-28.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/011-23.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/012-22.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Even though it looked cool as hell,I replaced the Psycannon with a standard stormbolter. Now he is the perfect model for Grand Master Mordrak Guess I HAVE to make me some Ghost Knights now :P http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/004-83.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Ok like I said with this weapon swap I now have my model for Grand Master Mordrak. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/005-71.jpg And the first Ghost Knight,still have to do the blade. I like the idea of Ghost knight being like Spectral Black Knights. I made a dark metalic mix with boltgun and black and then gave the model a wash of Nuin Oil. I drybrushed the text first silver,then white and hit that with Waywater Green glaze. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/001-90.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/004-84.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/003-89.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/002-93.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oiad Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 This is really building into quite something. Angron is fantastic. Give us a heads up when you get around to creating Taremar "the Gold" Aurellian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oiad Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 You'd have to ask A-D-B to be sure. Before the book was released, his character was simply called Aurellian. No first name or nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted May 31, 2012 Author Share Posted May 31, 2012 A little tip when it comes to airbrushing the blades I have yet to see anyone add. When masking the blade with tape,once taped spary with matt varnish. This prevents seepage under the tape. When you move the tape for the second side of the blade,spray again with varnish before highlighting. I tried to skip this step today with bad results and had to redo blade on this Apothecary http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/001-91.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/002-94.jpg I also finished two more Ghost Knights except for the blades http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/009-34.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/010-29.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/005-72.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/006-61.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/008-43.jpg I also started work on the Brotherhood Banner and two more standard Halberd Knights http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/004-85.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/011-24.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/012-23.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinhorn Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 I finished the Brotherhood Banner Bearer. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/002-96.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/001-93.jpg Then whille on the can reading the Grey Knight codex I saw the Ghost Knights get to upgrade a guy with a banner too This one I got to freehandmI gave it a Legion of the Damed esque feel to it. Are they related somehow to the Damned,spurned on by the same insane devotion that follows after death? I used the name Mortain for the banner as that was the planet the Squad died on. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/003-91.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/004-86.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Yak Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 You have some fantastic Grey Knights here. That brotherhood champion is unreal, brilliant use of the Dark Angel head. I think your ghost knights look really good and the banner is class. Is there any chance of a group shot of them all? Great work. The Yak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
