Semper Fortis Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 TITH I, too, continued on with my ETL vow. Recon squad almost done. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/277/#findComment-5076122 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magos Takatus Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 TITHI received my Chameleon paints and have started testing them on some ancient plague marine models. The effect looks interesting but when I get able to set up my airbrush again I'll be able to try them on something more suitable and hopefully the effect will be smoother than using an old paintbrush.

Machine God Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 YITHI - went to West Edmonton Mall wearing my B&C baseball shirt.

N1SB Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 A little belated, but I painted my 1st Primaris Marine. Was the free one my local Warhammer Store gave me, was testing Deathwatch scheme: Brushed metal effect to make the black more interesting. Used Tamiya Grey Metal, "inked" down a half tone with Tamiya Black :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/277/#findComment-5078286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOneTrueZon Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 TITH...found someone who was doing a sidewalk sale and had a huge box of 40k stuff with a price tag that confused me.  Me: "Is that price for the whole box?" Duder: "Yup" ::sips Miller Lite:: Me: "Were these yours?"Duder: "Nah, got'em from a storage locker sale! You know what they are? There's a weird one with a naked lady chained to a robot... ::looks at me a little warily:: Me: "Yeah I know what they are, stuff is pretty worthless, lucky for you I'm a madman willing pay what you're asking. Here ya go!" ::pays the asking price and runs off the down the street laughing manically::  Right place. Right time.

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 I’m almost afraid to ask what the price was, and for how many models....  Twenty cents? Five bucks, 50?

Semper Fortis Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 @TheOneTrueZon, loved the dialogue. Thanks for the laugh and congrats on a good deal! Â TITH I made more progress on my ETL vow. Finished the Legion Recon squad, except for the basing. Tomorrow I start on the cataphractii. Will do all the basing at the same time so I don't get flock and stuff around the paint. I tend to get messy with basing materials. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/277/#findComment-5079948 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magos Takatus Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 TITHI sprayed the Riptide I'm working on Khorne Red and given it a panel wash. Since I don't have a reference photo of a Riptide in Farsight Enclave livery I will continue with other parts of the model until my 7th edition minidex arrives. Normally I'd just paint it as close as I can without reference, but the model is a gift so I want it to be as accurate as possible.

Hfran Morkai Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 TITH I received SW Contemptor, standard Contemptor and a few extra bits. Â Can't wait to see if I can mix out parts between the Dreads as would like to use the Wolf legs with the standard Dread to dilute some of the bling.

The Emperor needs those Marines, Marine!   And TITH I painted some more on cataphractii. Tried a slightly different yellow recipe and had a major fail. Sigh.

Hfran Morkai Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 TITH I placed my smallest FW order to date. Â I picked up a set of the Legion Tank Crew despite not even having plans on armour yet (want to build my army almost as an invasion force so starting with the pods and moving towards heavier lists later). I just couldn't miss them, I love the MkIV chap in particular, apparently his vehicle's arsenal isn't enough. Â If the stuff is still round next Friday I'll order a bunch of Seeker and Umbra Ferrox Bolters, MK II command and maybe another set of the crew.

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 TITH I completed a small greenstuff mold experiment for copying details from one model to another, and was reminded of the fact that blutack and resin don't like to play nice. As soon as the greenstuff finishes curing i will have completed my Necron deathmark lord conversion, so I'm listing that as a win for the day.

Callan Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 TITH I completed my second ever completed mini. I've been painting most everything in big batches, but my local GW has a cool "competition" to encourage us to get painting, and this is my submission this month.   I'm still a novice, but I'm proud of my progress.

Viridia Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Looking sweet there, Frater! Looking forward to seeing more DG from you if you've got a plog going on. Â This past week in the hobby, I've been going over the bases of my Iron Warriors again to give them a second coat of Stirland Battlemire, and I am wondering if you're actually supposed to use Stirland Mud before applying the Battlemire. Also experimented with Agrax Earthshade for the first time ever, and looking the worn effect it gives on metal, and painted up a little bit of my Deredeo for the ETL at present, partially because I'm on lates which I detest, and partially because I'm trying to work out how I want it to look.

lhg033 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 TITH (technically last night) i actually put brush to mini for the first time in a long time. Primed, base coated and washed 3 easy build intercessors. At this rate I may actually finish these in a reasonable amount of time.  I've seen it said before but these really are nice/easy to paint with the GW method. Admittedly i've yet to block in other colours or even remotely highlight but i really relished the time to sit down and paint and am looking forward to doing more.   I may have also created a monster - I left the models on our dining room table to let the wash dry so i could take a look this morning and my 9 year old son found them. He is now expressing an interest in 40k...... it's not like he's obsessive (100's pokemon cards, knows all the details) or loves board games....  Just bought first strike for him to look over.  My wife is going to kill me. Semper Fortis and Kite Senet 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/277/#findComment-5089108 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 TITH I realized I'm not a fan of painting the first Emperor's Champion model (the one he's two-handing the sword in front of him). I mean, it's a "neat" model, but to use it as a Raven Guard Champion doesn't really fit the motif.  I dunno. Either I'm being extra lazy about it or I'm not creative enough.  At the same time, "Champions" have never really settled well in my head-canon. I really think that is the one thing that should "belong" to the Black Templars Chapter. You know, "There can be only one" kinda thing.  /vent OFF Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/277/#findComment-5090013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
