MordentHex Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Ya i got to tone down the eyes. Seems i got carried away with it. Way to much bling for even an EC to pull off. Sheep, that Rhino looks great but the colors seem to lack shade depth. Your havoc launcher does look better. I'm stealing that idea! "Chaos Dildo launcher": Slaanesh only wargear section for new Codex chaos for points cost. Thats where Fabius actually got his "rod" of torment. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254659-a-tale-of-20-gamers-a-galaxy-asunder/page/25/#findComment-3204455 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisisJimmy Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Cheers for the kind words everyone, kind of shocked me with the positive response. It is honestly really motivating, so it is much appreciated. @MordentHex - Really nice EC you're developing there. I am a fan of that metallic purple, and the standard you are producing at such speed is awesome. Maybe a bit much on the OSL from the eyes, but very nice nevertheless. Magnificent stuff as per usual sheep. I'm a huge fan of the really beat up marines and all the dead IF are just gravy. With the lefty marine, I sort of took the easy way out, I just used the usual bolter holding left hand, flipped it over onto the right hand and then swapped the thumb to the other side (if that makes any sense). Can't wait to see what you knock out next. In other news, I've finished up the GS work on my White Scars and they are nice and ready for a priming. All the models now have some sort of extra added on to them in the shape of pelts and the like, and I've started to work on adding extras onto their ride.

Lord of Blades Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 RPR: that looks alot better since you changed it, nice conversion ;) Jimmy: great minds think alike, I've done a lefty too, they are really hard! Well done on those conversions. Mordent Hex: EC's look great mate, I think you may have gone alittle heavy on the glow from the eyes, but I'm sure it looks great on the table :) Latest recruits for the SoH. Completed the tac squad and their ride http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/IMG_0977.jpg Obviously running a missile launcher and plasma gun gives the squad alot of versatility on the table and helps with those pesky terminators in 6th. Next is their ride. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/IMG_0980.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/IMG_0982.jpg I used the deathwind launcher from the drop pod kit as a pre chaos havoc launcher, I think it look pretty brutal and alot better then the chaos dildo launcher. and a final group shot of all the SoH model completed so far: http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/IMG_0993.jpg Those builds... are sooooooo beautiful :D I love your work, sheep!

Lord of Blades Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Has anyone recently dropped out of the project? I am really eager to join this project, and would love to participate. If I can pop in, I would love to do Dark Angels or any other loyalists.

Ironwrought Huw Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I've gotta say everything's looking great guys. I'm starting to think I should pick up the pace a bit, you guys are really out-producing me in terms of work. I'm currently working on a purely A/T (2las, 2missile) devastator squad, and I've re-built 3 of my old devastators (from a different squad), re-jigging the squad to be anti-infantry (2 bolter, 1 plasma, 1 melta) The re-built: (basing needs working on). I also attempted to do that fancy direction-lighting on their helmet lenses. You can see that the results were... 'unique'. Similarly, the highlights on the helmets need touching up (the lead marine looks like he's got Graucho Marx's eyebrows ;) ) but other than that, I'm happy with how they're going. http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/Huberticus66/P1011839-2.jpg Here's the sergeant for the A/T squad. Not sure whether the arm looks better pointing up or down. http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/Huberticus66/P1011844-1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254659-a-tale-of-20-gamers-a-galaxy-asunder/page/25/#findComment-3205158 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord of Blades Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Thanks guys :cuss I made it onto the GW White Dwarf daily blog :) Not surprising, your models are amazing! That dreadnaught is beautiful in every way, and I won't be surprised if they feature it in a White Dwarf even.

Rune Priest Ridcully Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 Everything is looking great as ever, especially the free hand done by everyone. Sheep, would it be okay for me to attempt to imitate your sons of horus color on a small squad of them that I am going to add to my 40k era Thousand sons? (fluffwise they opposed Abbadon's rejection of Horus, and fled). I have primed the captain, and may be able to get a pot of snot green and so work on the Salamanders should hopefully resume soon.

the damned artificer Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Technically it's not really a land raider, although it's based on the same knowledge it is supposedly a tank class in itself, like the rhino and land raider chassis' are :D And it's enormous and really cool yeah :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254659-a-tale-of-20-gamers-a-galaxy-asunder/page/25/#findComment-3210357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
