Warpaths own view of the Heresy (WIP-thread)

Hey mates,

finaly I got my hands on some of the HH Miniatures of the FW range, but not only some ordinary Minis, far from it!
Angron, Loken and Abaddon visited me last Week and thats why I started to build them, and afterwards I will paint them.

In time there will be the other Primarchs and important Characters in this thread too, so stay tuned and feel free to coment!

 

First, I started building the base for the duel, I have to say, realy nice work with tihs little piece of art, no mould failures to correct but... well there was one thing I disliked about it... they send an oval base with it, where one can place the debris-scene on... but it only fills ca. 50% of the base!

Something I could not, would not stand in the room, so I started to fill up the base with some kork(cork? dont know the exact word sry)... it gained some height, what seemd legit in my eyes, next step was cutting it in the right shape of the base and building a smooth way between base and scenery...

The 2nd step was to think about the many tiny details the base has... skulls, skeletons, helmets, debris, parts of walls, pipes and so on and how to copy the grade of detail for the self builded part, but(!!!) without overloading it!
While unpainted it may not seem to look as it could distract from the minis in the end but there´s quite a lot of stuff on the base... thats why i decided to do a bit less stuff.

Right now, there are some self sculpted broken wallparts and bricks 2 skulls from the secret weapons range, a solitary boltgun and a broken pipe... oh yes and a shoulderpad on the backside, plus a mix of sand/earth to cover the cork.

It was at that point of progress I realised I have to cover all of the premade earth of  the base too because it would look quite strange to paint it so that will be the next step.

My ideas for the next steps:
-more broken walls?

-perhaps a half burried Space Marine?

-some more pipes or rods?

-parts of armor/discarded weapons?

 

I you have some ideas, comments or critics let them be heard right now my brothers in arms... brushes... whatever! Feel free to say what you think!

 

stay tuned !

I like the buried marine idea - or maybe a half-ead guy kinda crawling away from the massive grudge match going on behind him...

 

I also vote you put this in the works on progress section of this site - it'll get more attention there.

 

Look forward to seeing more.

Hell its about time... thanks for some kind of highly infective disease I wasnt able to go to work for some days, and managed to to some seariously hobby stuff instead... not only build a Marine here, or paint one there...thats why I say hello again over here after quite a while...

The Start of my HH Army is a small but nasty Destroyer Squad ( you know... the fellows with rad grenades and rockets... hm? ^^)

Hope you guys like what you see, and would apreciate some feedback!

So feel free to coment and criticise :)

Well...only Charackters was the initial plan... but... i could lay my hands on 20 MK II Marines+ Bolters+Upgrade sets, a Contemptor dread, a preator blister, and some MK IV Marines... for 100€( thats cheap... :D ) And so I decided to do a small 30k army around my Charackters... and with the tutorial for the MK armours over here... perhaps the army wont be that small in the end ;-)
