the damned artificer Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Yeah I can probably do that :D I'm however really considering kitbashing some mk II or III armour and some other parts together as that's a long way up the road to making a descent pre-heresy IW marine :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254659-a-tale-of-20-gamers-a-galaxy-asunder/page/17/#findComment-3151192 Share on other sites More sharing options...

the damned artificer Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 If I signed up for the Iron Warriors, what's the first deadline? Well technically the first deadline was August 31st, but since you'll be picking the mantle up this late I personally see no problem in prolonging your personal deadline :D What does everyone else think?? Nighthunters, those Alpha Legionaries are incredibly awesome! They really capture the black ops feel perfectly and the colour saturation is gorgeous :D And those eye lenses are so intense and really capture your eyes. Hydra Dominatus!

Lachdannan Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 I might do a test model, and see how that goes. Though if someone more motivated comes along, then by all means they should get the chance. Just out of curiosity, what's the first milestone?

ThisisJimmy Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I might do a test model, and see how that goes. Though if someone more motivated comes along, then by all means they should get the chance. Just out of curiosity, what's the first milestone? Iron Warriors and Imperial Fists, eh? As I understand it, there aren't any fixed amounts you have to paint. For guidance, it has been suggested that people try to paint a 5 man squad every month. But it isn't a hard and fast rule, you could substitute the models for something equivalent, such as vehicles or characters. Hope that helps mate.

the damned artificer Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 The Damned Artificer, Post 4 - WIP Legio VII - The Imperial Fists Time for a small update:A better picture of the tartaros terminators:http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/tartarostermiesdone.jpgAnd then painting is progressing on the Land Speeder:http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/LSwip1.jpghttp://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/LSwip2.jpghttp://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/LSwip3.jpghttp://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/LSwip4.jpgThe tail number and diamonds icon are meant to be squadron number and insignia as I really like the iconic look of playing card logos, and I intend to incorporate them into the fluff like i did the ace of spades :yes: I try to differ from using company markings as I like the idea that the army, under Rogal Dorn or the first captains command, is comprised of units from the entire legion, and not just one company and that vehicles in general doesn't display specific company markings as they are all part of the legions arsenal. But that may of course change along the way if it turns out to be too hard to keep track of :) The laurel on the nose is from the old 2nd ed devastator marines transfer sheet and I thought it looked awesome and could easily act to denote the speeder as being assigned to the first company for now :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254659-a-tale-of-20-gamers-a-galaxy-asunder/page/17/#findComment-3153477 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaemonPrinceDargor Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Looks a lot like Angron to me Agreed. I have no idea why some people think that's Ferrus Manus, he wasn't anywhere near the Isstvan system at the time....
