Syrakul Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Been working on my red corsairs, because with current busy schedule its easy and fun. And the darker sketchy style I'm trying on some perpetually unpainted spawn ive used in all my chaos armies for years. Criminal that.

BitsHammer Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 On a whime dug through my pile of shame and found a Vanguard starter, an Impulsor and a Repulsor. So it looks like I have a decent selection of units to pick from for a Crusade.

Doghouse Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 TITH I got my Assault Intercessors, I rarely gush over models but the bare heads are amazing. Beautifully scaled so they look like they fit in the helmets and full of character with two lots of ten seperate designs. The powerfist assembly is fantastic and so is are the legs doing away with the seperate parts to the front of the greeves. Easily my favourite Primaris set to date.

Vermintide Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Finished off this Baal Pred that had been sat on the shelf awaiting highlights and transfers to ease myself back into things. Also finally started priming some Indomitus stuff... How long has it been? Like, September?

Not sure I know which you mean on those, the only ones I can see are the mohawk guys, the rest are bald or buzz cuts. I will say the builds on them in general are seriously nice, I never had to look at the instructions once while making them. They are really intuitive in their build design. Nice job on the Chaplain.

WARMASTER_ Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Agreed I think they’re the best Primaris kit yet!

Karhedron Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I have been having a lot of fun running a jump Sanguinary Priest to accompany my Sanguinary Guard, Attack Bikes and Inceptors. I think he will be a regular feature in my lists going forward. The only downside if that my old 3rd edition metal model was looking rather small and sorry for himself. I needed something more fitting for my Warlord. The model is based on the Bladeguard Ancient from Indomitus. The grail comes from the BA accessory sprue while the chainsword arm and tilting shield come from the Primaris upgrade sprue. Technically there is not such thing as a Primaris Sanguinary Priest but since I plan to run him with a suit of Relic Armour anyway, I figure I can get away with. I am pretty pleased with the way the conversion turned out. I had to fudge the wrist holding the Grail slightly. When it first tried it, he was holding the Grail almost sideways which looked wrong with the horizontal blood inside. I added a triangular wedge of plastic to straighten the wrist. Close up it looks slightly odd but from normal viewing distance it is OK. I used a Gravis shoulder pad from the Primaris upgrade sprue to match the style of the Baladeguard. This is the only thing I would change if I were doing it again as I had to pack out the inside of the pad with filler to fit on the Tacticus arm. There model doesn't actually need this size if shoulderpad since the other arm is covered by the robe and the pad is not visible. Anyone else wanting to try the same conversion, a normal size Primaris pad would be easier and look just fine.

Redrandy93 Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Today i finally finished two squads of tactical marines for my UM Fourth company. That makes two assault squads done to go with them. Also started another tactical squad for the Fourth company. Hopefully I will finish them alot quicker than the prior two.

Syrakul Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Spent nearly 2 hours digging through old 20+ year old crappy models I had stored away thinking I could make space or something. Models too new to be oop treasure and too old to be viable in a current army (gen 1 plastic CSM horribly painted type stuff) Couldn't throw it away, no time to creatively deal with it, so there it will sit another decade I guess...

painting.for.my.sanity Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 TITH I finished the marines from my copy of Indomitus (my partner got the Necrons)... well, really they were finished last night, bar a tiny bit of work needing to be done on the bases in my coffee and lunch breaks once the textured base paint had dried overnight. I've got some annual leave later this week, so will sit down and take some pretty photos of the Eradicators (the last unit) plus the whole force together.

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 TITHI got lucky and decided to pop into a Half-Price Books on a whim, and discovered the following.... I am a very happy Daimyo-Captain. Having very briefly skimmed it so far, I am delighted to find in-universe lore, and my mind is already whirring to try and figure out a way to convert the scenario in the book to modern play.

MrSpoon Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 TITH I completed my Ultramarine repaint project (well, phase 1). I managed 117 models in 118 days. 3 short of my original plan as the eliminators got bumped to phase 2. I spent some time with the proper camera to get some shots (album here if you aren't already bored of seeing them https://imgur.com/gallery/1J7xh4d) I wasn't expecting it, but this Lt is my stand out favourite of the lot. And the blade guard are my favourite squad.

painting.for.my.sanity Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I've not been in that much of a painting mood the last few days - I think it's the building excitement about finally being able to play Cyberpunk 2077. I've been in a bit of a game-y mood though, so have been playing a bunch of BFG:A2 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/396/#findComment-5642203 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vermintide Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Finished up this fellow. He came out quite nicely.

Gederas Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 TITH I did some trading of things I realized I didn't have any intent on really touching at all next year. So, no longer own any Custodes/Talons of the Emperor outside of Trajan and Valerian/Aleya. Ghaz&Makari, Meganobz, Nobz and a Knight Valiant. Buuuuuuuut, I got a bunch in trades for my Emperor's Spears.
