pingo Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Hi fellow Ultramarine fans! It's been a long time since I posted any pictures of my models online. Anyway, I thought you guys might like to check out my Ultramarine Librarian, pictures of which are on my blog, here. I'll post a picture here as well (I'm kind like that :P). http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7dL4sT_ipPk/UIsADLq4M4I/AAAAAAAAAA8/ps0nVlbY7Og/s400/Lib2.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264351-pingos-ultramarines/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Very nice. I notice there's writing in the appropriate places, brother. That's what I like to see. Very well done it is, too. Use a micropen? :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264351-pingos-ultramarines/#findComment-3220930 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use a micropen? :) Thanks! No, I don't use a micropen, though it is a technique I've heard good things about. I just use a decent brush with a nice fine point, thinned-down paint, and a light touch. I 'wiggle' the brush a little as a draw it along to give an impression of different letter heights. I also try to leave little spaces occasionally to give the impression of words.

Emperors Immortals Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Pingo, beautiful work mate!!!! Are teh wolves for tournie or just fun? Lastly, are you a bloody Aussie or something?

pingo Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 Thanks, emperors immortals! I'm not much of a gamer since I play quite rarely and tournies aren't my thing. But my Wolves are intended to be a bit more of a hassle to deal with than my Ultramarines have been. A touch more competitive I suppose. But mainly, it was Dan Abnett's portrayal of the Wolves in Prospero Burns that inspired me to start a force of them for the sheer fun of it. No, I'm not an Aussie; I'm from the hemisphere that has regularly been voted 'Most Northern' for the past 5 billion years. Specifically, the UK.

pingo Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 Sorry folks, I totally forgot to post a photo of my Terminators on this thread after I posted them up the other day! Will rectify that immediately and will spend double time in the practice cages. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nwTWzHEBZps/UI2dRzh8Z3I/AAAAAAAAAC8/pUtO5yM_8GE/s1600/2012-10-27%2015.32.27.jpg Loads of pictures are on my blog.

So we are not counting geomagnetic reversal then? :lol: The SH conversion pieces look great, I cannot wait to see your SWas im a fan of your work. Also, the Aussie comment was meant to be more fraternal then accusatory :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264351-pingos-ultramarines/#findComment-3227276 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pingo Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 Quite I while since I posted anything, but I got some photos of my Command Squad done. As per usual, lots more stuff on my blog. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CVgbDIwZAaA/UKpuJDBRsFI/AAAAAAAAANg/NsuELuj_biQ/s1600/2012-11-11%2016.10.58%20-%20Copy.jpg These guys were a lot of fun.

Marius Thorn Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Fantastic painting - I will be ecstatic if my Ultramarine force (coming soon) turns out half as good as that!

pingo Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Thanks for the kind comments ;) It spurred me on to post another mini: my power armoured Librarian kitbash. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ySEzgPxoVvY/UL45-do2wMI/AAAAAAAAAU8/jc9lBTpPgh0/s1600/2012-11-11%2018.11.08.jpg I did this quite a while ago now, but never mind. Lots of different bits on this guy. He was a blast to build and paint.

Tyrannicide Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 These are fantastic. I like the Librarian but not a huge fan of the psychic hood, I'm afraid. I really like the Command squad though. The Champion and the Mk. III-armored plasma gunner being my favs. Clever use of bits. Maybe the pingo ate your baby. I really felt that it needed to be said sometime... That is all. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264351-pingos-ultramarines/#findComment-3255333 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxichobbit Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Those are some very nice Ultramarines. I've had a look at your blog too and your Space Wolves are top notch - some very well thought out conversions and poses, especially the posing on your Wolf Priest. It's nice to see someone who collects the same two chapters that i do. I'll be following your blog from now on i think :).
