Spaced Hulk Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 TITH...I finished my Crimson Fist's Primaris Kill Team: Led by Lieutenant-Commander Ramiro, they're on extended deployment to scour the ruins of New Rynn City for surviving Ork warbands.

Redrandy93 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Spaced Hulk really impressive job on the Crimson Fists squad. What blue did you use? Thanks in advance.

Spaced Hulk Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Cheers! It's Kantor Blue, shaded with Army Painter Dark Tone, then highlighted with Alaitoc blue and finally Hoeth blue. I can't claim any credit for the recipe, as it's almost exactly the same as the Citadel Colour App version Edited January 24, 2021 by Spaced Hulk Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/401/#findComment-5658565 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axineton Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Is the dude with a robotic leg a kitbash or is that an actual mini with a robotic leg mate?

Spaced Hulk Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Is the dude with a robotic leg a kitbash or is that an actual mini with a robotic leg mate? It's a conversion/kitbash mate. The bionic leg is from Anvil Industry, which I 'grafted' onto a normal Primaris leg just above the knee.

Magos Takatus Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Is the dude with a robotic leg a kitbash or is that an actual mini with a robotic leg mate? It's a conversion/kitbash mate. The bionic leg is from Anvil Industry, which I 'grafted' onto a normal Primaris leg just above the knee. I like how closely it pays homage to an old marine miniature. I was pleased to see that. Nice work on the Fists. :) Spaced Hulk 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/401/#findComment-5658621 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrion Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 http://www.solegends.com/citcat1991a/cat1991ap006smcommanders-00.jpg Spaced Hulk - that captain update is sensational. As is the 3rd ed command squad sergeant update too. Soon as I saw it I recognised it. It's probably older than most fraters!

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 It’s certainly older than this frater! God-Emperor if the old metal models aren’t gold.

Magos Takatus Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 It just occurred to me, the Jes Goodwin miniatures on that page have aged so much better than the other sculpts. I wonder when the models were sculpted in comparison to each other?

Valkyrion Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 As far as I can tell, 'Imperial Commander' (Marneus' first name) and Space Wolf Commander were both 1988, whilst the Captains were 1991. The captains were actually in the Blue Catalogue in 1991, so may have been released in 1990. Apart from their size, being notably smaller than even normal marine models let alone the primaris range, the captains hold up really well, especially the UM and DA, if a little static.

MrSpoon Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 YITH I attempted to airbrush some marbling effects. It was beyond frustrating; I found I was in the perfect temperature where my white paint became more viscous (it is pretty cold in the UK at the moment; even more so in my garage) so it required extra thinning. The paint was then so thin it ran when it hit the panels I was painting even when I was very sparing with it, leaving me with with a splodgy mess.

Axineton Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Yesterday in the hobby I primed a Death Jester and Shadowseer I bought pre built last week and a Primaris chaplain along with a few power swords so I can practice the power sword glazing technique.

Focslain Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 YiTH I mapped out my next big build. An Imperial outpost made from the gang stronghold. Basic floor plan is as follows: The internal space is 11"x8" and I'm not sure what to place in it, if anything at all. Friend suggested a comms relay. I have stuff for it, just not sure if I want to. Might build it just for the heck of it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/401/#findComment-5660069 Share on other sites More sharing options...

painting.for.my.sanity Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Yesterday IRL I celebrated two years with my partner. YITH, she gave me a Triumph of St Katherine (and I proceeded to spend much of the day assembling it). I guess my current expansion to my Order of The Iron Veil has gotten a bit bigger. It's definitely the most complex model I've ever worked on. Currently looks like it'll be in 21 subassemblies, that'll get assembled into eight blocks (which I'll photograph so you can see all the later obscured detail) before completing the model. For those wondering what I got her - those massive Mason Cash mixing bowls you see on Great British Bakeoff.

Focslain Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 YiTH - Got both watchtowers and the bare bones of the 8 wall sections built. The tower is taller then the base bastion. Also ordered three bastions for my FLGS as I might as well get that out of the way.

Axineton Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 TITH I assembled the hardest and most difficult miniature known to mankind: the Death Jester! Also built four of the terminators from the space marine heroes series 2 set and swapped their left arms for the left arms from the terminator kit that I got really cheap. Just need some deathwatch shoulder pads then they can be primed.
