Brother Captain Arkley Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 While I dont share your enthusiasm for moustache whirling duo of 40k :) I am looking forward to see your take on them..... I guess you are thinking recast? Well as you say it gives to a nice testbed for "Grey WB" and dipping your toes into 30k :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 I just really like bad guys, I don't know why! :D And yeah. I don't endorse re casting at all. i think the quality is bad and generally hurts the hobby. However I can't prove it, and if anything it has made me more determined to buy the "real" mini than I had before (the cast is still sweat). Again, no idea if it is a re cast, I just have my suspicions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Arkley Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I agree on the recast... But never look a gift horse in the mouth I like bad guys I really do just not them 2 Which makes me wonder why I like your Word Bearers DAMN YOU TZEN!!!!!

Brother Captain Arkley Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I will stick to Iron Warriors :P But I am looking forward to seeing how you do this :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Me too actually. I have never really painted anything grey before. At least, not an entire miniature, so this could all go really really pear-shaped! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Arkley Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Nah man I think you will do it great. You have not disappointed yet :P No pressure :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Haha, well, we shall see! Took me ages to be relatively happy with my current red, so this process may take a while! :D Having to wait for the green stuff to set before I can undercoat it, so mostly twiddling my thumbs now, could paint another cultist.. but meh... cultists... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Looking forward to this buddy. Will there be any conversion or will it be a straight build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Arkley Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Terminators? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 No conversion on this guy, just a straight up paint job. Once finished though i do have some terminators I need to convert and paint. I really should finish these cultists off though :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 So here is a quick update pic of Kor Phaeron. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/kor1.jpg I really haven't enjoyed painting this so far, not because the sculpt isn't great (it is) but because the low quality of the cast has really damaged a lot of the details. I am going to continue paitnign him for the time being, but I won't be surprised if the model doesn't get finished, or gets rushed. The lesson here is just because you may be able to get something cheap, it doesn't mean you should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the best way to look at it mate is a test for the 30k WB Army you need :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 I haven't had much painting mojo recently, but yesterday I spent the afternoon painting a cultist. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/cultist13.jpg Still have seven more of these to do, so painfully boring!

Tzen Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Well, this is a truly awful paint job. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/cult14.jpg I still need to finish the gas mask thing, the silver needs to be touched up, but I am trying to get the cultists finished quickly.

Brother Captain Arkley Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 They are fodder anyway :) But I will be critical as I am sure you want honestly you can tell you did not enjoy painting it. Can't say I am a huge fan of the models either :(... I would prefer multipart kit for cultists man I think they would sell like hotcakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah same. I can't pin point what it is about these minis, but they bore me something stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thamier Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah same. I can't pin point what it is about these minis, but they bore me something stupid. they need more converting thats the problem ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzen Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Fifteen down, five to go! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/cult15.jpg My trusty ten year old camera died last night, so I am having to get used to some new fangled contraption. So yeah, picture quality may vary for the next week or so! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 Well, number sixteen finished. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/cult16.jpg Not great, but not brilliant either. Don't really like this new camera I am using if I am honest. Doesn't quite take pictures as well as my old one! Ah well, first world problem!
