Axineton Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 TITH battle for Macragge turned up in the post. Only bought it for the crashed lander. All the space marines are in it and so are the nids and termagants along with all the other bits and pieces. Only things missing are Lieutenant Varras and the fusion core. The minis have been overpainted so gonna strip them down and redo them I think.

Hey, didn't the doc tell you to keep it elevated? The trick is to lay on your back and paint up above your face. That'll keep it from swelling. :D  And TITH I finally finished my assault squad. I'm really happy with the job and the basing works for me. Now to figure out what's next. I also used Perfect Paper Adhesive for the first time today. @Subtle Discord has been going on about it and I thought I'd give it a try.

Reldn Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Today in the hobby, I've been heavily debating again if I want to start working on a second 30k Legion...and if so, which one. Â I also purchased 20 Volkite Chargers...and have no idea what I'm doing with them all. *laughs* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/271/#findComment-5028269 Share on other sites More sharing options...
treadhead Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 @reldn: (sung to the tune of rollin by limp bizkit)  Alright, partner Keep on choomin', baby You know what time it is Throw your hands up Ladies and gentlemen (Redacted by the Inquisition)Keep on chooming baby Move in, now move out Hands up, now hands down Back up, back up Tell me what you're gonna do now Breath in, now breath out Hands up, now hands down Back up, back up Tell me what you're gonna do now Keep choomin' choomin' choomin' choomin' (what?)Keep choomin' choomin' choomin' choomin' (come on)Keep choomin' choomin' choomin' choomin' (yeah)Keep choomin' choomin' choomin' choomin'  As for which legion to go for as a secondary, do you want a force you could field as a combined list ? (IE some more heretics) or just something other than your current colour scheme for a break?  If it's the former maybe some deathguard or emperors children, If it's the latter how about some imperial fists or raven guard  Back on topic: TITHI Painted some more poxwalkers and bought a can of retributor armour spray for my inbound custodes purchases Viridia and Reldn 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/271/#findComment-5028274 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 TITHI continued work on my command tanks. Most of the Primaris’s dish is painted, need to paint the antenna to complete that. Excelcior is having the front side doors repainted a nice white-over-bronze, which allows for some more differentiation with the colors and details of those peices. Probably try a marble vein effect tomorrow and see how it works (hopefully I don’t frag it up too badly).

Reldn Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Today in the hooby, I'm working on yet more Word Bearers. This time a 10-man Support squad with Flamers, working on slightly modifying a BaC chaplain to have a Volkite Charger in place of the Plasma Pistol and working on the Gal Vorbak...again... (I've been having a terrible time getting these guys assembled. The glue just does not want to set for some reason).

treadhead Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 @Reldn Have you considered employing the dark art of pinning? I find bonsai wire is ideal for it flexible enough while still being strong and as a plus it comes in decent sized rolls relatively cheaply. Â TITHI Applied the transfers to my converted primaris captain, did some more work on the 30 (out of 40) poxwalkers and buying a coronus (the answer is yes just not yet) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/271/#findComment-5029907 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semper Fortis Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 TITH I started on a Javelin Attack Speeder with lascannon.

Just need to gather the requisite materials and I can begin the ritual. *laughs* I'll keep an eye out for the bonsai wire and give it a try. Which size do you recommend? Â Hobby plans changed a bit today: Got my Chaplain converted, and instead of starting on a Support squad armed with Flamers I have started on a second 20-man Tac squad.

treadhead Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 @Reldn The stuff i use is about 1mm in width  TITHI Experimented with agrellan earth technical paint while helping my nephew base some of his 4th company smurfs, things i learnt 1: that stuff doesn't do many bases as it has to go on really thickly 2: use the wash afterwards sparingly 3: never leave the paints unattended when his 3 yo sister is nearby, she did her nails with the agrellan earth paint (quite neatly but her mum was unimpressed) Reldn 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/271/#findComment-5030704 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axineton Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 TITH I bought dark vengeance on eBay for £75 still wrapped up.

Ascanius Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 TITH I finished up my last four Hormagaunts and thus ran out of unpainted models, so I bought Simple Green and a can of flat black Rust-Oleum primer from Bunnings so I can strip and repaint some old ones.
