Grizzly_bear Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 No boyscout bandolier, lol. Taking a little break from the Scars today, I had some inspiration for the AoV chappie I started some time ago - the arms are new: http://i.imgur.com/tS1jhTg.jpg this has given me great ideas on parts to use for your chaplain.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 7th? Loool like chaplains then? Where's the head from btw? There's been two incarnations of BCK, the old 2nd ed one with the half-metal face, a Sally chaplain I started converting from the jump pack chaplain, a termie chaplain that I converted for a friend a long time ago, a Crisons Fists chaplain from the power fist model, and now this guy. The head and body are from the same model: http://i.imgur.com/HuB7V.jpg It was in finecast and the first one I bought was in terrible shape. The tubes on the helmet were almost completely gone thanks to voids and air bubbles, the crozius was messed up, the left shoulder pad had a giant void in it, and the thighs where all crusty with... I dunno... whatever that finecast error is where it looks like elephantitis, obliterating the detail. While I was waiting for the replacement to come in the mail, I chopped up the bad to see what I could do with it. The book on his hip I managed to salvage and later used on my AoV libby, Oberin: http://i.imgur.com/FV0856D.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 Trying out some paint chipping on the first jetbike: http://i.imgur.com/ehGCpFJ.jpg I'm going to have to get a different white paint because it's not chipping like it should be. I might have to dust off the airbrush for the rest of the Scars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherJim Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 wow how have I missed this! looks like I know what im doing tonight! nothing to say other than wow, I am envy. the chipping looks great, afraid to ask but how do you keep it so (for lack of a better word) neat? whenever I take a sponge to a mini, sh*t goes everywhere but where I want it... keep up the great work!

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 The chips aren't paint dabbed on with a brush, they're actual paint chips. I made a post a while back explaining the process: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278032-bcks-thread-of-stuff-v-legion-begins/?p=3466343 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherJim Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 that's what I get for commenting before reading :( poor protocol ahh the old hairspray technique, for a moment I thought it was liquid mask... thanks looks like you are getting decent results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 I tried the liquid mask once, and I don't know if it was a bad bottle of the stuff, or if there was something on my brush that reacted with(nothing that I could think of), but stuff stuck to my brush like iron filings to a magnet. Ruined it, in fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 I will for the next one. I've never stripped FW resin before, and the chipping isn't too bad on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostMalone Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I haven't stripped resin either so let me know how it progresses. I think ill attempt a similar effect for the fists, can't wait to see some more progress brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherJim Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 huh, all I know about liquid mask is that you should apply it with a toothbrush, as in flick the brush with your finger so it splatters onto the model, then paint as normal, then remove mask with an eraser... ive heard good things about olbas oil for stripping resin, though I've yet to try it, should strip finecast aswell, though I cannot be sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Phantom Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) Wow, how could I have missed this for so long!These conversions are amazing BCK and I can't wait to see some more painted. Edited October 16, 2013 by Star Phantom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 Thanks! :) Once I get the amount of chipping I want on my V Legion guys nailed down, there should be faster progress in the painting department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 26, 2013 Author Share Posted October 26, 2013 All of that stuff about me wanting to change Legions was lost in the crash, including the Crimson Sons idea by Heathens. That's a little disappointing. Last night, some jerkoff took a sharp turn too fast and drifted into my lane, and when I swerved to avoid him, I hit a huge hole where the asphalt met the dirt, and it killed both tires on my passenger side, as well as the front rim. The rear rim might be damaged too, but I don't know at this point. I'm hoping the damage is limited to that, and not anything else. Even if I can claim this on my insurance to save some money, the deductable will just about clear out what little money I had saved, considering I've already spent about $800 on the car in the last two months. With that will probably go any chance of ordering stuff for the new Legion idea for some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laborious Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Crap! So sorry to hear about that, BCK. :( Perhaps you could put your Greenstuff-Fu to use in the meantime knocking up a praetor model plus a few other HQ choices like Apothecaries, chaplains etc using whatever spare bits you have knocking around? Then hopefully a couple of months down the line you'll have enough to order some Forge World goodness. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Damn. That sucks, brother. Glad you're safe though; that's the important part. Here's the Crimson Son pic again for you, so you can start painting up those jetbikes..... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
