Unknown Chronicler Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 They would be some good looking Ultramarines or Iron Warriors, their looking good brother! I can't wait to see you paint them bad boys! FOR THE LEGION!

Olis Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Have you thought about the glorious Seventh Legion, brother? The Imperial Fists scoff at the need for toned done colours! Bright yellow is about as eye-catching on a brown or grey battlefield as it gets (unless you use day-glo colours...). :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270497-small-legion-project/#findComment-3295631 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomus Sardauk Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Why not try White Scars? Or Salamanders? I've seen alot of pre-heresy armies but the Scars and Sallies get no love...

matchbox Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 +1 for IF Just because yellow is a pain to paint XD Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270497-small-legion-project/#findComment-3296176 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Furious Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 so back with another update on my legion... as you can see I have chosen Imperial fist! Because at heart i am a BT fan and my favorite Primarch is Rogal Dorn. Again the model you see is still WIP and still getting use to the yellow :P look forward to the next post CM Furious Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270497-small-legion-project/#findComment-3302773 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Looks great... from a distance. Any chance to have larger pics? It's difficult to appreciate the details from this size. From what I can tell, you have great eye for detail buy maybe the yellow is a bit too bright... It's personal taste of course but I'd say some shading could help bring out the details more and tone down the brightness. I look forward for your next update! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270497-small-legion-project/#findComment-3302792 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Furious Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 Hello everyone! yes it has been awhile since my last update on these bad boys, but in this update i have completed my squad of Mrk II Imperial fists; so after painting these five, i've decided that I'm not such a big fan of the yellow :/ although I love the Imperial fists, I just don't see myself collecting them, so my next project will be Blood angels, so we'll see how that goes :) CM Furious Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270497-small-legion-project/#findComment-3338487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Sondar Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Really like the sergeant in the combat squad. I also think you have a really nice yellow there. A word of warning, if yellow has got you down, red is quite a bit of work to get right too. I wholeheartedly suggest a mixed legion force then you can pai t what you fancy and prevent that sick of painting too much of one colour feeling. I'm biased as I want to see more Fists! Whatever you decide happy painting. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270497-small-legion-project/#findComment-3338786 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Furious Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 thanks Lord Sondar, well my lastest order of forge includes X2 legion Mrk IV and 1 legion Mrk II, so im going to make the Imperial fists into a complete squad, and add some blood angels.

Lord Sondar Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I'm looking forward to seeing the results. I've been working on some heresy era Blood Angels myself, I've nearly finished my first ten man squad. I started before Betrayal was released and will have to swich things around to make the full 20, I've got a missile launcher and a plasma gun in the squad at the momment. I plan to use then for 30k/40k and get maximum use out of them. I'm going to do something similar to you and mix-up things up a bit. I like the challange of a new paint scheme. For the Blood Angels are you going for a bright red or more muted tones? I kept mine fairly dark and love the broody look it gives them. I'll put some pictures up in Hall of Honour when I'm done.
