Sky Potato Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 TITH I completed decal and basing work on 14 Intercessors. I started them on Saturday, so I’m quite happy with 14 in a week. I’ve also made enough of a dent in my painting backlog to justify assembling my Indomitus marines. So I got the Assault Intercessors and Eradicators de-sprued, de-mouldlined and assembled. I just need to get the gun barrels drilled out now. I might even do the Outriders today as well. The HQs and Bladeguard from Indomitus are going to get some serious converting into Minotaurs so I won’t be touching those for a while.

BitsHammer Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 This week in the hobby I've slowly been working on my Indomitus models for Black Templars and finally pulled the trigger for a second army to work on/play while the Marine meta largely continues in my area: Dark Eldar. I'm thinking of going with a sort of White Goth theme but splash in a different color for the left arm to give the army some visual identity (I don't know, I've just wanted an asymmetrical scheme for a little while now and this is a good way to do it). I figure white would let the army stand out on the board without doing more saturated bright colors, plus they're a Xenos army I've circled back to a few times in the past. So now I've got Drazhar, a box of Incubi, and a Talos/Chronos kit all sitting on my desk as well. Pictures to come, but for now it's all the less exciting assembly stuff.

Syrakul Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Made another kitbashed spawn. Started quite goofy then had to work a lot more bits in to even it out... its ultimately way to large (size compare in album) but quite majestic IMO Still requires GS to even out the gaps.

Bryan Blaire Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 TITHI primed all the pieces for my converted Hounds of Morkai unit - now to determine a paint scheme and figure out what squad will be next!

BitsHammer Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 (edited) Still slowly pulling myself out of my hobby rut I fell down, only built a Klaivex and Drazhar today. Also, I never noticed how a Primaris looks next to a Drukhari (nice and chunky): Been trying to do at least a couple models a day to work on fixing my hobby rut (and I recommend it if you need to work on your pile of shame but are lacking motivation), though I haven't gotten any painting done yet.

BitsHammer Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Keep up the good work, Fulkes. :tu:Thanks! I'm working on curating the content I read online as well since I found I can be dragged back into that downward spiral if I read too much salt, but I'm just happy making progress. Settled on an idea to base the Drukhari color scheme off of an Idoneth Deepkin one for Dom-Haim which should pop nicely with greys and greens for the armour set over a win red cloth. Thinking of fluffing up the army as Drukhari that have left the Dark City for one reason or another so they soend most of their time in real space with the goal of finding or siezing a Craftworld to turn into a city their own. Marines are Templar through and through though, though I plan on trying some stuff to try and make the armour pop a bit (plus order transfers later this week) and splash a little yellow into the scheme reminiscent of the 2nd ed Templar art by Blance and do yellow weapon casings. Still deciding on a Crusade badge though.

Doghouse Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 TITHI I've nearly finished a basic battalion of a Captain, Lieutenant and three Intercessor squads for a rather obscure Chapter, undercoated a second for a DIY Chapter and looking at Black Templars for a third.

Syrakul Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Spawn was started a few days ago, but I usually have to do a bit, leave it a day for the glue to reeally dry (as I continue to mangle it the joins should be solid) Possessed was one nights work, happy with results so far. Now to let it dry for another pass tomorrow~ Ordered the 60?! 32mm imperialis bases from rural quebec...

Karhedron Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I have now finished my Space Wolf Bladeguard Veterans and I am pretty pleased with how they have turned out. They hit the balance I was looking for of being definitely wolfy whilst still being recognizably BG veterans.

Axineton Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Very cool Karhedron love the oldskool bases. TITH I assembled a box of intercessor assault marines for my Deathwatch. I’ll prime them at work in January when I’m back after Christmas. Tomorrow going to assemble the Primaris Apocathery for the Watch too.

Mendi Warrior Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Today I received my latest bits order and got a shipping confimation from FW for the 2 sets of AT Atrapos knights I ordered late yesterday in the evening.

Axineton Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 TITH I assembled the Primaris apocathery, Lt Calcius and the terminator librarian that was released a few months back. Gave them all deathwatch shoulder pads. The apocathery has a Raven Guard shoulder pad and I’m think either Hawk Lords or Rift Stalkers for him. Calcius has Ultramarines shoulder pad due to him being blinged out in Capital U insignia and the terminator Libby I’ve not decided on which chapter he’s coming from although his staff has a bloody capital U as part of it so he’ll probably be Ultras as well.

Redrandy93 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) Brothers I finally finished another UM Tactical squad. That makes it 3 done and 3 more tactical squads to go for the company I am working on. Already did the 2 assault squads and have part of the two devastor squads done too. the command squad will be a while before I do that.

MrSpoon Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 YITH I got my painting station setup in the new house. I did some tweaking of a few models and Guiliman in a nearly finished state. His base just needs varnishing with ultra matte but the airbrush and associated kit is 4 boxes deep in the garage with no where to use it.

painting.for.my.sanity Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 TITH I finished my Dialogus and started a Mistress of Repentance - determined to get my "Seriously" vow complete for all 12mths of this year. Given I'm no longer going to be able to see family this Christmas, and the GF and I will just be staying at home, I wouldn't be surprised if I manage to get Tariana Palos done before year's end, too.

Guest MistaGav Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Finally got round to building the two Gladiator tanks that I've had since they came out. Still not sure whether to try and magnetise to switch them into impulsors or just glue the top hatch on shut and leave as is. I already have an Impulsor anyway so no huge loss.
