Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Yeah, it's me again. you know, the guy who cant seem to make up his mind on an army :D so, to deal with this, I decided to start four armies. yes, four. the first army is the Dark Angels I started about four months ago. then, my 8 year old decided I should do Blood Angels for him! the third army is going to be my beloved Black Templars, a friend of mine wants to get into the hobby, but can't afford it right now. so, I'm gonna let him use my Templars for now. and the fourth, is gonna be the Marrines Errant, this is so I won't be ashamed to put mini's opposite of 1000heathens! the plan is this,start with four 1,000 point forces, and build in 500 point intervals from there. hopefully this will keep me focused enough to get something done. Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 A shame, I was hoping you'd go for a Badab War Chapter, so we could properly whup the crap outta each other sometime... :D Seriously though, best of luck, man. That's a hell of a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biohazard Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Marines Errant are a far more interesting colour scheme than the Smurfs anyway :tu: This is one hell of an undertaking here, best of luck with it ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, by the way heathens, do you game at bosco's at all! I haven't had a chance, more due to not having anyone to play against yet, and some real life issues. Is that an invitation? Marines Errant, huh? They'd be fun..... for me to murder. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 @1000heathens well yeah, of course it is! but I have a serious defict of painted minis! and I suppose I need to get the Badab War books now, I don't know if they have any special rules or whatnot. crap! but I can knock together a quick force of the trusty old greys. there are almost always people there on sundays. I'll prolly run the Errants out of the Vanilla dex if they don't have special rules. and you'll have to be patient with me, I am still learning the rules. I'm more of a hobbyist! and remember, If you ain't Cav........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 truth be told, I started as a 68W, reclassed to 19D while stationed at knox, then went to Ranger school, then got attached to 1/75 in Lewis. the thing I am most proud of achieving though is my spurs! AND, I will be adding pics of the HQ's for this project, today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 It's alright, I reclassed to 25Q myself. I don't hold it against you, lol. Looking forward to these HQ's man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 well here we go, pitures of the HQ's except force 4. I had originally decided Imperial fists, but the new GW yellows blow (i miis golden yellow!) then it was gonna be smurfs, but 1000heathens had to have a Badab War chapter, so it became Marines Errant. and the model I had built is very FISTY (sounds soooooo dirty) so now, I have to model LT. Commander Anton Narvaez. prolly gonna put him in Heresy armour, or a roman-esque segmentata thing! first a group shot http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125235.jpg now, the DA master http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125312.jpg gotta find his iron halo, and finish his powerplant/banner Also, does anyone else notice the cooling coils on the combi-plasma seem to be glowing? huh, weird. if anyone wants to know, I painted it white, asuryen blue wash(old), white drybrush, thats it here's the BT chaplain http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125333.jpg he is actually a lot closer to completion than he looks. now the BA captain, I am posting more of him because I need the most C&C on him. I cant paint red very well! what do you guys think? http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125409.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125424.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125445.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125455.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120911_125504.jpg his helm, jump pack and wings are done, just need to finish him these next 4 are a test mini for my marines errant color scheme, I know that in cannon they are blue and white, but I like silver. I always follow the rule of cool! http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120826_135834.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120826_135854.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120826_135904.jpg this guy was a lesson in a new metal technique, practicing my blue, and freehand chapter badges. as always C&C are deman.....welcome. watcha think heathens, can I stand on the same table as you? don't know how my post got doubled, I'm hopeless.

Hyaenidae Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 watcha think heathens, can I stand on the same table as you? Hell yes, lol. Not a bad start man, and your take on the Errant's paint scheme looks pretty cool. The technique you used for the red on the jump pack is great, copy it on the rest of those fellas. Let's see more!

Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 12, 2012 Author Share Posted September 12, 2012 well, it's always nice to get the good 'ol 1000heathens stamp of approval :P and I must admit, the main source of inspiration is your Astral Claws. too awesome of an army to not make an overt homage too! you made me fall in love with blue and metal! so heathens, what do you think for Narvaez, heresy pattern armour, segmented armour, or "gasp" a combination of them. I'm kinda at a loss. maybe I'll knock up some sketches tomorrow and put em up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 Well crap, my drawings are a bust. my scanner is having a rainman moment, so no sketches today :) so I'll just have to do a quick knock up of my idea...... well after my to-do list I should be ableto get that up.

Honda Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 @FP 1. I like what you did with the BT chappie crozius. I was thinking that might work for a similar guy in my crusade and it's nice to see it already modeled up. 2. The silver/blue definitely works and Silver/White are equivalents as far as any historical heradlry goes. 3. I like what you did for the lightning claw. I knew GW gave us knives for some reason. :P Onwards Brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 oh, those lightning claws are actual lightning claw blades from lightning claws :lol: I got them from the LC's I butchered to make the more sword like LC's for the black templar termies. they come off like punch daggers, but they have been well recieved at my local game group!
