GodEmperorOfMankind Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Greetings Brother! That's a great start right there! I do hope you cleaned off the mold line on that marine before you painted him :P So are they an iron hands successor? The Autocannon Dred parts, where are they from? Keep up the good work!

I do hope you cleaned off the mold line on that marine before you painted him So are they an iron hands successor? The Autocannon Dred parts, where are they from? Keep up the good work! They are indeed a IH successor chapter, you can follow a link in my sig to learn more about them. Sadly I did not remove the mold line I am still new to painting and working on the figs. Autocannon parts came from puppeswar His leg is from maxmini arms are from IH chapter kit, head and shoulders are from chapterhouse.

Uaronain Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Some shots of some more tac marines getting ready, the powersword sgt will have a decapitated necron wraith head in his hand. Sorry for thequality of shots but once again this is my crappy phone. More work needed onthem some need shoulder pads, other back packs, some need purity seals or loincloths etc The multi melta gun guy needs a lot of work and more guitarstring (cables) between his weapon and backpack to simulate that it is fused tohis arm http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164712.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164723.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164743.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164809.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164815.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164836.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164904.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_164854.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270407-lpc-steel-vanguard-project/#findComment-3294910 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uaronain Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 My very first dred, mortis pattern! Remember those great organizationalskills I wrote about in my first post? Well I kinda lost all my instructionsfor the dred and the thunderfire cannon. Here to winging it! We are glued and primed (except the arms need fitted better and glued and trimmed even more) http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_220526.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_220533.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130130_220542.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270407-lpc-steel-vanguard-project/#findComment-3295127 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uaronain Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Thanks for the feedback guys! I am currently in the middle of a battle with my thunderfire cannon the whole no instructions part was killing me till my wife found them hidden right beside my desk Friday I should have a better update with pics and saturday I should make progress somewhere as well as I have a day off! And yes they do look like arnold termies! I like how they look, I wanted them to look different than vanilla marines.

Uaronain Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 Ok guys not going to lie, this is a much more pain in thebutt than my last army. Mind you last time I played it was 4thedition and I was younger… my BT were basically black primer, decals and alil bone white So a lot of this is very new to me; such as washing, drybrush etc and as you will see I have a lot of work left to do. http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130203_161955_zps3f0dfffe.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130203_162009_zps8a35cfa2.jpg “Leaning into/ bracing with his flamer” http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130203_160635_zps9306c600.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130203_160734_zpsfbb78e1e.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130202_140633_zps574987eb.jpg Mortis Pattern Dred still being worked on….

Llagos_Tyrant Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 They look good. Definitely a unique commitment to Iron over Flesh that surpasses even the Iron Hands. I must say though, I could only imagine an interaction between them and any other Chapter beginning with "Do you even live, bro?"

Uaronain Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 They look good. Definitely a unique commitment to Iron over Flesh that surpasses even the Iron Hands. I must say though, I could only imagine an interaction between them and any other Chapter beginning with "Do you even live, bro?" Maybe any other chapter besides the IH themselves. I am sure they would be looked at with suspicion by a great many chapters because of the whole machine thing. But at least techmarines and the ad mech would find them unique to say the least. Like I have said before, I wanted them to be different than the other 1,000 chapters out there and I hope I managed to do that :) On a side note the rest of the tac squad will be worked on today and if I have the will I will start on the tfire cannon. I still have to put together my master of the Forge and the techmarine that goes with the tfire cannon. Also anyone have any ideas as to where I could find plasma cannons for the mind wiped slaves faithfull servitors? or should I just try to kitbash them also?

Any pointers on the storm talon? I am just about ready to start on it.... should I paint it in pieces before it is put together or just paint it after assembly?

Uaronain Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 Sorry for the delayin an update but things have been busy in my neck of the woods! I finished thetech marine and have the stormtalon primed and will work on it this weekend. Thisupdate is more about what you will see coming. http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/IMG_20130301_121716_zpsdd1ae07a.jpg Pictured is a valkyrie (will be a vendetta), a leman russ(will be magnetized between battle cannon and executioner), predator, avindicator another iron hands conversion kit a plasma cannon servitor kit. anda TINY pic of the tech marine. You can see my puppies in the background also,so now you have seen the devil cat joey and my devil dogs Hazel and Dexter. Not pictured is my greenstuff, my greenstuff industriestentacle maker, assorted bits from small companies across the interwebs. Therewill be another rifleman dred with the same auto-cannon arms as my first one.The chapter I am making will use IG allies heavily and they will of course beall sorts of ad mechy! I will make use of the microarts studio guys for my rankand file IG men so they will be my version of the tech guard. This is a picture of a fig I plan to convert for my countsas Marbo! I have yet to name her but she will be a sister of cydonia aka a techpriest assassin. From lexi: Theywere noted as being a law unto themselves and answered to no authority beyondtheir unknown masters within their homelands. Its members were noted to beaugmented both mechanically, chemically and genetically to enhance theirnatural abilities and making them superior killing machines. http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff225/uaronain/countsasmarbo_zps05cf2880.jpg So I have a loton my plate to get to work on guys! Wish me luck and I hope to have the talondone soon so my LPC vow can be finished and I can move on to making my army! Asalways I look forward to your comments. I am also searching for the right conversionproject for my counts as harker also so if you have any insane ideas throw themat me!

Rotties and Dobbies are both great breeds and my two are HUGE puppies.... just over a year old HI..finally some proper IW elites.. I'm curious..where do you find those shoulder pads? chapterhouse maybe? IW elites? Sorry I dont know what that means -_- The shoulderpads are indeed chapterhouse! They do some great work over there and are always fast and reliable! Once I saw they had the cog shoulder pad I had to buy some. I am hoping they put out some more stuff soon.
