Ironwrought Huw Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Built the champion of the chosen squad of my Chaos Ultramarines - former Apothecary Venatio, Butcher of Thrask. Built and painted 3 more members of the first "tactical" squad (What do you call squads in a chaos marine army which follows the Codex Astartes to the letter?) Oh, and sliced my thumb open with a scalpel while trying to remove the flash from some chainaxes. I sense that my chosen squad will be blessed by Khorne from now on...

Dark Angels come pretty close On that note, I'm making solid progress still on my Dark Angels Tactical squad from Dark Vengeance. I've even started on the Libarian and Captain - but I've slowed on those... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother dean Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Glad we've got everyone fooled on both sides... I watched my wife build a quonset hut repair shop while I built tank traps and spackled... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 ...finished all the Broken Arrows infantry I had on my workbench, aside from the Librarian. I'm quite pleased with them, really :) I have to compartmentalize models quite a bit for the techniques I use, so I don't really get a satisfying look at them until just about the very end of the process.

Benzin ninja Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Yesterday in the hobby, I (finaly) finished my Terminator squad by getting my grazing Termi done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akylas Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Basecoated the army of three last stragglers I need to complete a tac squad, painted a lot of bases of guys who I had done before deciding on a base scheme for my army (I think I'll have nightmares about Steel Legion Drab paint), learned my only standard size brush can no longer hold a point, and learned I have a deep loathing for having to superglue non plastic "flying" jumppack models onto their base (why is the slot so much bigger than the piece I'm supposed to glue into it?).

Ace Debonair Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 ...Bought a Warp Talon box and a Terminator Chaos lord box for the epic kitbash potential, only to get home and realise I have no basic chaos marines/ terminators to kitbash with. Not exactly the great return to hobbying I'd planned on after all. Still, I'm sure they'll look good on my shelf gathering dust while I go mad over the new loyalist stuff in a couple of weeks.

FashaTheDog Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Looking at my Red Scorpion repaint (2.5 DYI companies into Red Scorpions) and actually realizing that thanks to vowing Guard in the ETL, I am actually almost done with a Battle Company as I painted up two full Assault Squads and two full Tactical Squads with a full Devastator Squad started as well during the event. I also painted up a bunch of other random stuff too, some Red Scorpions, some Dark Angels, some Guard, some Chaos, some Angry Marines, and some Ad Mech, but today having finally lined up the Red Scorpions on a shelf until I can devise a means of transporting them, I had not realized just how much progress I have actually made! For the Emperor and Skittles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) ordered a Legion Praetor set for Jaspcats Battle for Humanity! and lost my love for 40K oh, I also got my hands hands on a Rogue Trader Rhino!

ShadowSong7007 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Cleaned off all the nasty Dark Angel insignia from the Dark Vengeance models. First time using a dremel for detail work and I'm quite pleased with it. Terminators are primed and will work on the bikes tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Dremel tools are God's gift to modelers. Heck yes! I have two of them. And today, I decided to try for a 30k army of the V Legion. May the Emperor have mercy on my wallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Dremel tools are God's gift to modelers. I need one of those! also in the hobby, I decided to step up my game in regards to modelling and painting, time to bring a little grimdark to the XVIIIth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 ... Came to the decision to sell both my Dark Eldar and Daemon armies aswell as some other unneeded models to begin my 30k army. I have also come to my complete and full decision that I will dedicate myself to the XVI Legion, for I am a Son of the Warmaster and rightful Emperor of Mankind, and I will not be denied what is rightfully mine.

Aqui Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Today in the Hobby I have seen with my own eyes...fluff for the Rainbow Warriors! A nugget, the tiniest morsel (page 18 of the new Codex), but I think that after a fair few posts (well, quite a few) on their FB page (when they had one) GW decided to throw me a bone (they probably had enough of hearing from me ). I wonder what I have to do to get more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How'd you do it? No, its not that hard, but adds a nice bit of realism to a model. I do a drybrush of vermin brown, getting heavier nearer the intake, followed by a black drybrush just near the intake itself. After that I wash with Druchii Violet on the bits where the black is, and then do an overall wash of Army Painter Strong Tone (old Devlan Mud equivalent) to finsh off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
