Chaeron Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 I love the fiends, how did you make them? I wish I could tell you accurately as I didn't make them myself, bar adding arms! However, visually, I'm pretty certain it's the use of the Tyranid Ravener Brood bodies, with Daemonettes on the top - which works really well visually. I bought them second-hand, because I loved them - and added the Tyranid claws (which is how they'd normally look) to the lower half of their bodies to make them more lethal. What can I say? I really think it works! Anyway, here's where I am currently at after yesterday's work! Starter with a Rhinox Hide base, getting in everywhere fleshy: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Base_zps9e438739.jpg Proceeded to then drybrush Averland Sunset -trying get that tone and depth between the recessed areas, and make it look similar to elephant skin, wherever possible: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Layer_zpsb9a6c5fc.jpg Then, started to pick out all the flesh disturbances in Screaming Skull: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Flesh_zpsc66161d5.jpg And all three had that done: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Fleshed_zps7871230a.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262615-death-guard-rebuilding-a-legion-110119-the-year-ahead/page/6/#findComment-3865118 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaeron Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 My thanks gents - really do appreciate it. Just a little WIP of something slightly different: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Fiend1_zps2fcf96d3.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Fiend2_zpse121ce0a.jpg Getting there - few things to pick out and finish, some of the highlights (two layers) are washed out in the photos, so I may go one brighter. Quite happy all told though!

Chaeron Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Since then, I've ploughed through a few things, first - Obliterators: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Oblit_zpsb5c9e08b.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/OblitsProgress_zps29298558.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/OblitsWash_zpsebf877cc.jpg And then that bulk batch of Plague Marines: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Batch_zpsccbe464a.jpg Blocked colours: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/PM1_zps05d72c6a.jpg With flesh and weapons done: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/PM2_zps2a356c66.jpg Now onto basing and tidying the white, before washing...

Chaeron Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 WOW that is alot !!!! Calling for an Orbital Bombardment NOW!!!! Bring it :P I instead deployed an Orbital Bombardment of ink... This was the result: Ploughed through: inked/washed and finished basing near enough. Tidied up anything that that didn't cover. What's left? Eyes! Sinister glow to come tomorrow. I did a few extra (three) for good luck (okay, I miscounted...) as well as a Nurgle Lord and good progress on Kranon too. Productive! Just need final spot checks on the Obliterators and the Fiends, maybe a tiny bit more on their respective bases, before basing all three Great Unclean Ones, and I'm done! Will then have nailed approximately 3,000 points in no time at all!

Chaeron Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 All complete! Took a bit longer than I'd hoped - but I wanted them to be done well and right! Excuse the tone of the photos, lighting in the room was bad so increased the contrast - hope it shows them off better? Anyway, here's one of everything: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/CallofChaos_zps0063d270.jpg A nice side view: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/CoCSide_zps356e87b9.jpg The 'big guns': http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/GuOs_zps50a9a4aa.jpg The right side: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/RightPM_zps882f4f9c.jpg The left side: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/LeftPM_zps1f173774.jpg Phew! Quite an effort - really pleased generally as the vast majority of the Plague Marines were salvage jobs, hence why there is some discolouration in places. Overall, a new lease of life - so I'm pretty delighted I've rescued them for the army. Very proud of the GuOs too - they are really, really neat. Cheers for all the comments and criticism - really appreciate it and it has definitely helped and driven me on as ever to do these justice - I just hope that I have... Massive thanks to Semper for running this, as ever, hero. You can never get enough praise for the sterling job you do! Well done everyone who has contributed, either in support, vows or pledges, and that just leaves but one more thing to say... ...bring on the ETL.

Chaeron Posted January 6, 2015 Author Share Posted January 6, 2015 Well done. Really like the Big Boys in the back. Beautiful work Thanks gents - really appreciate it! Post-Call, I've been doing a bit more detailing on my Imperial Knight to make it look more like a Legio Mortis engine... http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Knight_zpsd85502fc.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/KnightSide_zps6ee16ef9.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Darkside_zps6bcd7370.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262615-death-guard-rebuilding-a-legion-110119-the-year-ahead/page/6/#findComment-3912113 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Ladies and gents... We have a Warhound! http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Warhound_zps1e41f9d6.jpg Obviously, colours are going to change to bring it into line with the Legio Mortis - reborn in the forges of Mars! I'm wondering whether to keep it 'classic' or not, mine however stands significantly straighter. As it's had an updated Plasma Blastgun, I'm wondering if ablative plating up the thigh might help to both bulk and protect the model from looking too spindly. Any thoughts?

Chaeron Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 So after not posting in this thread for awhile... a photodump of the last couple of months! I entered the following for the Daemonic Pact and was lucky enough to be awarded Artisan of Chaos for one of my three Great Unclean Ones: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/GuOFront_zpsd9a57b33.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/GuOBack_zps23885d70.jpg I then painted Ahriman for the Daemon Forge as I needed someone to offer a bit of sorcerous consultancy to the Legion: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/IMG_2806_zps5ozhxo7z.jpg Kilofix's generous reward for the victorious generals of the ETL III was a Praetor to commemorate our glorious victory. Here's the first of many to come, the Praetor with an honour guard of his fellow commanders and Terminator retinues just to show him off: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/LegionTerminators_zpsgx65qfs7.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/CloseLegionTerm_zpsnzdbzni6.jpg And then for this month's Daemon Forge, I've completed Vrosh Tattersoul: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/VroshFront_zpstoba7gw3.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/VroshBack_zpsxxrgh3dk.jpg Couple of photos as I transfer my stuff into cases...Inevitably, more to do - but getting there slowly but surely http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/GuOsFoam_zpsm1n1oilw.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/Heldrake%20Foam_zpsth0y9hzz.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/BiggerFoam_zpsrmeszpwm.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c254/TheNewAgeOutlaw/GW/PrideoftheLegion_zpsq5znqpej.jpg Filling them up is great fun - shows what you have at a glance. I thought buying a load would make it easier, but there are always things that don't conform size wise... More will be needed! Hopefully soon I will have a bit more time to dedicate to bigger projects... But this charts the last couple of months for me. Looking forward to the ETL already!

Dragonlover Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 So, are you labeling the cases, or just relying on the subconscious 'well, I remember putting that in a case in this part of the room somewhere...' method?
