Just a pic of one of those and one of your robed (already painted) GWs. I want to see how much they look or not alike. No need to shift your painting plans for me. Thanks though :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/10/#findComment-3357530 Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) seen your marines on gw site today I uploaded some photos to the GW Flickr site.

elmo Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 No problem - anything to help a fellow Brother :) I will be dividing my time between my DA and Xenos but I have now wound up the last of my IG. I am planning to get 10 or so RW done a month so this WIP will not go completely dead As well as an evening or two weathering the last lot of my Knights of Caliban above (damn you Stobz, you are never satisfied ) Just a massive for all your interest and comments - it has motivated and kept me on the path of the Unforgiven. Now where did I put that Riptide? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/10/#findComment-3358452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizara Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 even shorter marines lovely lol. Guess they could be perfect for heresy era, because you could say, the slightly shorter guys are terrans, while the taller ones are calabanites. Looking good, and yeah I think its random on GW's flicker pics, but when I saw yours, I knew who they belonged too.

elmo Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) To break up the DV bikes I am planning a Chaplain and a Techmarine conversion - reading the Ravenwing novel the techmarine is discribed as having black armour with red shoulder pads. The question is if my Librarian is in all blue armour and the plan is for the Apothecary to be in all white armour would it make sense for the Techmarine to be in all red? I know I usually do my own thang but has anyone got any ideas or should I just go my own way. Also I will be trying to mate up one of the DV bikes with the AB sidecar - has anyone tried this? Oh and I forgot from the list above that I also have a Nephilim to magnetise and paint - good job I bnought an extra 2 spray cans of Chaos black.

Interrogator Stobz Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Black armour, respective coloured pads. That's my vote :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/10/#findComment-3360771 Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Thanks Stobz - that is sort of my thinking too but I may also go with the respectivly coloured helmet (the Stormbudgie had the same thing). On second thoughts an all white Apothecary would look a little silly - pads and helmet white methinks. Don't want my RW to look like multi coloured clowns Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/10/#findComment-3360775 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Pads and helm sound good. That's going to be quite the black swarm of death when you're done!

Captain Semper Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 How about a single red (for the Tech) and a single white (for the Apothec) shoulder pad? It might be a situation where less is more. They will stand out even more in this sea of black! :) Kierdale 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/10/#findComment-3361078 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I'm going for that look too CS, less is moar! It seems once again Brother Elmo and I have similar projects on the go, let's see who gets finished first I may even add blue to the right pad of my DW Libby if I end up going down that track Doing the helmets and pads in specialist colours will look great Elmo dude, get onto it to provide me with inspiration :D stobz Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/10/#findComment-3361270 Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 This will be almost a full 2nd Company to add to the 4th. Who said I should go for a full Chapter when I first joined BnC? Seriously - who knows a good rehab centre - I need to get a grip on my plastic crack habit!!! http://i814.photobucket.com/albums/zz66/jonbrooks_photo/P5030027_zpsf3ad2697.jpg http://i814.photobucket.com/albums/zz66/jonbrooks_photo/P5030028_zps16819db8.jpg My 2nd Company will be Sammi - Done HQ squad/Black knights Librarian - Done Chaplain Techmarine 8 x Attack squads - 2 done 2 x Support squads Nephilim Stormraven - Done Landspeeder Storm (cause I can!) - Done Just short a couple of LS and ABs. The next couple of months will see me slowly working on the bikers in the picture a squad at a time - some of the figures will need alot of care as they where saved from previous owners. 1st Company next Kierdale and Interrogator Stobz 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/10/#findComment-3363372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Nah, that's not the 2nd Company. The 2nd Company is an undisclosed number of all that stuff. You need WAY more for your stuff to be undisclosed numbers! :D (Feedin' the habit!)

elmo Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Here we go with the first vow for ETLII I, Veteran painting servitor Elmo9141 being of sound mind, poor eyesight and shakey hand, hereby answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete RavenWingCommand Squad from the Dark Angels Codex to a total value of [pointvalue tbc] on or before August 15th. Success will bring eternal glory to the Sons of theLion and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame, andre-education in Room 42 under the ministry of Stobias Weatherbottom McGerkenshaw III's Chaplain Dreadnought Lucifer, until the year-end. So do I vow and so will it be! For Caliban and the Lion!
