The Unseen Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) Today I finally took my 1st step towards realizing my dreams of a full beaky army. Only took a lot of practice to figure out how to make small molds and make bubble-less casts. On a side note...anybody need 90 or so original plastic BaC MK IV heads that I won't be using? lol http://imgur.com/XwA3KQS.jpghttp://imgur.com/wmVFiae.jpg I would be more than happy to take those off your hands mate... If you were serious. Wanting to change all my heads to either BA specific or MK4. Also, nice cast on the beakys.

Space Truckin Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) Suffering from withdrawal symptoms today. The plastic crack has been locked up in the attic since late April / early May. Keep catching myself either constantly checking BnC or combing ebay for deals on the Calth boxset, lost patrol or that imperial knight box. work + newborn + new home = no free time edit: i just caved and bought lost patrol off of ebay. I feel so dirty.

Cpt_Reaper Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 TITHI did my first arm conversion. Nothing major, just a cut-and-rotate below a shoulder for my last combat squad leader. Also began planning my darkshroud conversion.

Pioantom Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Tith I made my 1st special order at my FLGS. A full psykana division, Yarrick, and a missionary (to use as a priest). I feel that this will begin my fall from the emperor's grace as my next order will probably be deamons for summoning purposes.

Duymon Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) Today I finally took my 1st step towards realizing my dreams of a full beaky army. Only took a lot of practice to figure out how to make small molds and make bubble-less casts. On a side note...anybody need 90 or so original plastic BaC MK IV heads that I won't be using? lol I would be more than happy to take those off your hands mate... If you were serious. Wanting to change all my heads to either BA specific or MK4. Also, nice cast on the beakys. Sure i sent a PM. should be easy ship since we're both in USA. Update on *Beaky Quest* Today in the Hobby I successfully copied the MK 6 shoulder set that came with my Tac Squad. Because I have no pressure caster I have to use a blunt pin to pick each of the little bubbles out of the studs before putting the other half of the mold down. The results work very well though i do get tiny airbubbles on the inner shoulderpads which don't really matter. http://imgur.com/1Zc5snz.jpg I also tried casting the entire torso but it's really rough on the molds since my parting line is right under the belt, making for a completely mold-line free cast. I could only make about 10 or so before my molds broke up, but I can always remake them in a few minutes (sans 4 hour RTV cure time) Here are my results thus far. THe Gun arms are a little loose since they're pinned but not glued in yet to facilitate easier painting http://imgur.com/JmG00cT.jpg I'll probably keep at least 1 original of every MK VI bit (Heads, torso, shoulders) so that I can continue to expand my Beaky army of doom. Considering tearing all of my BaC marines apart in order to convert them to Beaky-ish marines but with MK IV arms and legs kinda like the FW ravenguard calth upgrades **EDIT** During a boring HR Phone Conference I started painting up a ravenwing sergeant. Black marines are sorta like a cop-out for painting. I just airbrush them black and then add in eshin grey highlights and details by hand. Buuut.. I'm lazy so I'm happy with the result (and yes, I put myself on mute and just started airbrushing during the stupid phone conference) I'll do the bike later http://imgur.com/wtoimUl.jpg Edited July 21, 2016 by Duymon Space Truckin, Servant of Dante, Grotsmasha and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/186/#findComment-4447017 Share on other sites More sharing options...

treadhead Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 TITHI Finished base coating my fire raptors hull and started dong the smurf blue and metals for the first ball turret, Also did a gk list for a 1850pt game on tuesday (only 21 models but one is a knight titan crusader) this will be the first time I've bothered using a nemesis strike force as i usually just run a cad . Fingers crossed my usual lack of luck with deep strike armies doesn't come into play.

treadhead Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 And rightly so psycho it's a very nice bit of kit bashing, as for the mold lines spotting them is half the reason i take pics of my work, because the eye always misses one (or two) but the camera (and by extension all of the web denizens) never does @subtle discord: love your work can't wait to see the finished (assuming you do finish placing all those rivets with such micro metric precision ) article Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/186/#findComment-4450764 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Truckin Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 TITH - I received my copy of Lost Patrol in the mail. Thanks ultra fast ebay shipper person! Can't figure out if the look of contempt from the wife is because I sneakily bought more plastic space men or if she's dreading that she's gonna have to play a game or two with me. shandwen and paulJam 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/186/#findComment-4451965 Share on other sites More sharing options...
