Cornelias Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Yeah unfortunately i use now obsolete "Iyaden Darksun" over a black undercoat with a "Gryphon Sepia" wash, i managed to get a few pots when it went out of production but i'm going to see how much of a match "Vajello Heavy Goldenbrown" is as those pots won't last long when i start painting vehicles.

Honda Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Yeah unfortunately i use now obsolete "Iyaden Darksun" over a blackundercoat with a "Gryphon Sepia" wash, i managed to get a few pots when it went out of production but i'm going to see how much of a match "Vajello Heavy Goldenbrown" is as those pots won't last long when i start painting vehicles. I suspected as much. :( You might give VMC Yellow Ochre 121 a look. It's the closest thing I've found to Iyanden Darksun, and it's so close I don't think you'd notice.

Cornelias Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 ahh nice one, i'll need to order myself some, the thought of not getting a correct colour match has been haunting me :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/271467-wip-orphans-of-the-kraken/page/2/#findComment-3595787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelias Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa54/cornelias/SOTE/scouts.jpg First 5 members of my new scout squad built, including a grenadier.... Another 3 shotguns and 2 ccw scouts still to come, i'm trying to give them all a very individual look with a nod to the older scout models thrown in.

Uprising Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Wow, those scouts and sip in general looks amazing. What parts were use to make the heavy bolter?

Cornelias Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Wow, those scouts and sip in general looks amazing. What parts were use to make the heavy bolter? It's actually an Advanced Space Crusade scout heavy bolter i just changed the barrel as the original wasn't "beefy" enough :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/271467-wip-orphans-of-the-kraken/page/2/#findComment-3604321 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 The h-bolter, those knives...no bloused sleeves? ;) But seriously: excellent stuff. Very much looking forward to seeing them done.

Very much looking forward to seeing them done. I'm saving the bloused sleeves for a veteran scout squad/ salvation team that i'm writing up a set of rules for, they'll be very close to the original scout models :) I've two 5 man squads of the old plastic ones i'm going use to convert them but i'm still a wee bit away from starting them yet....

Redlead Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Loving your Scythes Thread. Really like the Scouts Salvation squad your building are you adding a marine to the squad and in the rules your writing, I read Orphans of the Kraken by R Williams not so long ago and its inspired me to start a few scout squads but never got them finished. Great stuff. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/271467-wip-orphans-of-the-kraken/page/2/#findComment-3817222 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battybattybats Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I'd deliberately have mismatching paint actually, including on the same model. With the events the chapter has gone through even getting paint the same as home may be impossible so repairs and replacement equipment might show up as patches of different not-quite-the-same yellow or pieces of new armour not quite the same yellow as the battered scuffed old parts on the same miniature.

Yeah turns out the vajello was a pretty good match, not had time to paint up much atm as everything is packed away due to me buying a new flat (seems to be taking forever to get it all sorted out between estate agents, banks, lawyers etc.) Here is what i was working on just before i packed everything away.... My new Cato Sicarius counts as Pretty much all of the highlighting and fine detailing still to go but he's coming along nicely i think :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/271467-wip-orphans-of-the-kraken/page/2/#findComment-3819588 Share on other sites More sharing options...
