Sixestohit Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 As of yet, no! ^_^ I've been toying with the emperors children (thanks for your comments in the other thread by the way) but think I'll be taking your advice and sticking with my angels! My spartan assault tank arrived today so I'm going to make a start building that, then it's back to painting the rest of this 20 man tactical squad up! Should have more results later this week ^_^ James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Anytime, mate :) Always glad to give advice to my fellow hobbyists! And I'm most definitely looking forward to seeing the next update! Cheers, Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aqatone Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Damn I do love me some nicely painted Mark II, III and V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixestohit Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Not a huge update, but got an assault marine done. I would have had more painting time, but I was building the spartan assault tank this week. I didn't even get the damned thing fully built because I need to wait for some blood angel doors arriving! http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd354/Jamesthegreatest/DSCF2823_zpse0378a98.jpghttp://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd354/Jamesthegreatest/DSCF2814_zpsbc5c5817.jpg James.

Quixus Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Very nice, but shouldn't the left shoulder pad go on the right arm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 He looks great, but as Quixus has pointed out, squad numbers usually go on the right shoulder pad and Chapter symbol goes on the left. But it's not too much of a problem, because your beautiful painting counter the fluff mistake :P I'm looking forward to the next update!

SnorriSnorrison Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Very nice painting there. Smooth finish, and the subtle highlights fit very well! Did you use any kind of varnish? I'm wondering because it is a very matte finish on the red. Keep this going please, you got some very fine miniatures here! :P Snorri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannicide Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I still can't get over the red. :angry: Very nice depth and I like your choice of bits. Can't wait to see more, especially the Spartan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixestohit Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Hey guys, thanks for all the wonderful comments. I put the BA icon on the right hand shoulder because when I started playing that's where the chapter icon went :) As this was a 30k project, and I was rewinding time I decided to rewind time on the models too and put the angels icon on the right as a kind of nod back to older times :) I should have probably explained that earlier :) @Snorri: I use Vallejo matt spray acrylic :) James.

Doghouse Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Gorgeous models, big thumbs up from me. :( I really like the reversing of the icons and squad numbers, the single roman numeral really does give them a Legion feel. The little bits of gold really do make the models pop. Really looking forward to seeing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 As this was a 30k project, and I was rewinding time I decided to rewind time on the models too and put the angels icon on the right as a kind of nod back to older times :tu:I wasn't even concerned with the paint job. I just thought those shoulder pads should have the shorter part of the extra brass/copper plate in front so that you could use a bolter or other "longarm" more easily.

Sixestohit Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 @Doghouse: Thanks, that means a lot to me! Oddly enough, I've just spent the last couple of days reading your thread a few times over for a side project I'm doing with some truescale heresy Raven Guard ;) @Quixus: Ah I see what you mean, and I agree. It looked kind of wrong to me too, but blame forgeworld, that's the way they have them built on their website! :lol: @Night Runner: Many thanks, you're too kind. James.

DarkMark Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Really good clean work. There's someone doing a similar blog over on the Ammobunker, you could have a look to compare and borrow any ideas if you like. :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixestohit Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 Hey guys, been a while! I've been working on my True Scale Blood Angels Contemptor, which was built by a friend. Here's a shot of him: http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd354/Jamesthegreatest/1-8.jpg I've got a few more pics of him up over at our heresy blog at: James.

Tyear Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I love him mate. He's great, what is the pelt supposed to be, a dog? If so, that's one HUGE hound, did they go to Fenris? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixestohit Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 Originally when Steve made him he was a luna wolf, so I think it might be a Cthonian doggie or something, they breed them big there ya know! :) Quick fluffy stuff: He saved one of the mournival on Murder, got dead and stuck in a dreadnought, was awarded said pely from the mournival for his sacrifice. :teehee: James.

Sixestohit Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 @Tyear Thanks, unfortunately a full army pic would only have the stuff in this thread on it currently, but I'm working on more infantry to try and get the numbers up! ;) @Zedrenael: Many thanks!
