Being deployed overseas... I can\'t finish my path to redemption until I get back. Here is my unfinished projects Dark Angels/Master of Ravenwing/RW. The Dark Angel & RW I was looking for was the medieval- pre heresy type.

 

As for the Master of the Ravenwing. He is shooting a Ork nob in the face with a plasma cannon, smacking down a other ork who accidentally shot his battle buddy with his rocket on the other side. While a another ork is going rambo on him completely missing him. I wanted to show the Orks viewer the childish character Orks display. I figured if it\'s the ONLY jet bike in the whole imperium. I add skull servitors to constantly monitor it flying with the jetbike. The flaming skull is so to represent one of the fallen heads. I wish I waited because now GW came out with the Plastic MoRW; I\'m so pissed off now messing with the metal one.

I'll have to echo Furioso-Prime: Yeah yeah, I heard ya. :P

Seriously though, I vow to complete the paint work on my combat squad of bolter marines (not the bases):

gallery_59244_5847_68369.jpg

Edit: And they are done!

Roughly, they need the following for me to consider them done paint-wise:

-All mold lines rescraped, repainted. -Check! Well, almost all mold lines, I think a couple were fiddly or didn't make themselves known until late.

-The guy missing his pauldron needs retraining on how to wear his armor and the squad's artificer serf needs shooting. Someone make a note to have a Librarian and Chaplain find a more competent, less "trying to get their master killed" serf for me. -Check! He was joined by a couple other Marines that had some armor issues, but they have all gotten themselves back together.

-Someone isn't even wearing their Chapter colors. This is unacceptable. -Check! All Marines now have their Chapter markings

-All units need greaves and helms repainted to proper black. -Check! All repainted

-Highlights. -Check! Armor has edge highlights.

-Squad markings. -Check! Tactical squad markings all applied.

-Company markings. -Check! All knee-pads or greaves have this applied.

-Campaign marking. -Check! All five members have the Quelling of Hybreon IV task force marking applied.

-Devotional text and any honor markings earned (knowing this bunch, that seems a little unlikely). -Check! Couple earned unique marks, several have devotional or Legion-honoring text applied to their armor.

Here we go!

5 man PA DA squads with no upgrades are going for 90 points a pop.

So, they are finally complete for the month! Some better images and close up/detail shots will be forth-coming on my Stoneburners thread tomorrow.

As for the Master of the Ravenwing. He is shooting a Ork nob in the face with a plasma cannon, smacking down a other ork who accidentally shot his battle buddy with his rocket on the other side.

Love the charging Dark Angels pose... the equipment and armour look more related to a Heresy Era warrior... but very dynamic nevertheless. The master of ravenwing is an excellent idea. i am not in favour of modelling gunflashes and plasma bolts on models as they look too static...but the plasma cannon taking off the orks head is absolutely great! I think the flash from the camera detracts from your paint work.

 

 

Hopefully here is my "Path to Redemption" making a Dark Angel mod for the Space Marine video game

 

if you did the DA mods then well done indeed. They do look very realisctic..... but that won't qualify for the Path to Redemption event. We'll wait until you are redeployed and get your brushes back in hand!! ;)

Excellent...someone heard me shouting!!! :devil: Bryan, in your own inimicable style, instead of simply stating that you would complete a combat squad...you had to give us the exact detail of all the exquisite modelling you plan to do...attention to detail is something...but what you achieve with your models is entirely another thing!!! B) Nice to have you back!!

 

 

... and then there were NINE!.... :D

Sir Tancrede, I beg you, I simply must know... how did you get that gradiant effect on the power sword? I've been trying to do my power swords like that forever and I just can't do it.

 

Please, from one battle brother to another... teach me!

Small note. THe Current year is 12.M3 (the year 0001 happened in M1.)

Meh...don't blame the plagiarist, I just copied and edited another brother's mistake :P

Oh...um, oath complete...stand by for another oath, since my last test is tomorrow, and then I'm relatively free for the rest of the month.

Tancrede, your winged sword on asmodai's shoulder is...exquisite! If only I had seen that before I started freehanding the chapter badge... 30+ shoulders down the road, I'm not likely to change my technique (although...why not, I already have three sorts...thirty-ish with the master of ravenwing shoulder pad, ten or twenty with the DA shoulder pad, and nearly fourty with my own inferior freehand chapter badge...)

All right...additional oath of moment for October:

I, march10k of the 5th company, Dark Angels Chapter, First Legion, do vow to complete the refurbishment of the fourth squad of the same company not later than the end of the current calendar month, as follows: Seven brothers are merely in need of rebasing (actually, two need their shoulder pads highlighted to match the rest of the squad) to match the new scheme prescribed for the army. One brother needs both a new base and new armament in the form of a plasma gun. One brother needs a base and new armament in the form of a multi-melta. The brother veteran sergeant is in need of no attention. The estimated points cost of the squad is 215 points, as the aforementioned sergeant bears a power fist.

gallery_13203_846_53215.jpg

(hobbyist's notes: the bases are the ones taken from the marines in my previous oath... and the 4th squad will eventually have a melta and a multimelta, the plasma gunner, once finished, will be swopped with a squad that currently has a melta and a plasma cannon. And if GW deigns to grace us with sergeants who have access to combi-bolters, the sergeant of the 4th will get a combi-melta and the squad a drop pod...the combi-melta will fill in for the melta on arrival, since that turn, they only get a snap shot from the big gun)

gallery_13203_846_7904.jpg

Second October oath complete! ten tacticals with plasma gun, multimelta, meltabombs, and powerfist comes to 220 points.

Thanks for coments, brothers.

 

@Avon Rekaes :

how did you get that gradiant effect on the power sword? I've been trying to do my power swords like that forever and I just can't do it.

 

Please, from one battle brother to another... teach me!

I don't have an unpainted model atm, so I can't make a tuto, but here is the recipe :

- base of all the blade in ice blue

- highlights with a very thinned mix of ice blue + white (up to a 25/75 mix)

- on the opposite, shadows are done with glazes of enchanted blue, to a last glaze of regal blue

- last, extreme edge highlighting with pure white.

 

 

As soon as possible, I'll try to make a tuto for those blades, as I'm happier with them than with my "traditionnal" method.

I tried, but I can't find my original post!! She's lost in 18 pages of greatness, so I'm being naughty and making a new one here...

 

 

....wait....my October vows were supposed to be appended to my September vow post??? Geez, that'd be a really long post, come February....
