Now I actually just found this in my junk box.

I need to find a way to dissolve the glue so I can strip it for parts.

Ideas?

If you were building Dark Angels, I'd suggest scavenging it for parts of a Titan: tower for leg guards, turrets for feet...

This is my first attempt at writing fluff for a miniature. Let me know what you think:

Captain Valdor Skaren, The Bloody Handed, Butcher of Morgary IV, Moritat of the Sons of Horus

Just something right off the top your head, eh? thumbsup.gif

And here he is after a good days painting:

Nice. I'd like to be able to paint as well as you if you had a bad day!

Thanks for the kind words guys!  It makes my traitorous heat warm!

 

Here is Skaren finished except for baseing and weathering.

I don't have my weathering stuff with me at work here, so it will have to wait till I get home in a couple weeks.

 

So these guys will be next in line:

Started on a different color scheme. This time using Tamiya's clear blue, like Forge World used for theirs.

 

First test: Army Painter Plate Mail spray undercoat, slather on Clear Blue, wash Coelia Greenshade, Matt Varnish spray:

Second test: Army Painter Plate Mail spray undercoat, slather on Clear Blue, no wash or varnish yet.

I'm going to try a Biel-Tan Green wash on the 2nd one tomorrow. We'll see how that goes.

If it darkens significantly ill approve, far to bright at the moment and I'm starting to see what you mean about the clear blue.

 

I think successive shades of druchii violet burl tan green and guillaman blue might help but that's just my opinion

on the Tamiya clear blue.......maybe a different approach. It has struck me that the HH paint schems, especially the FW ones, are definately about thinking outside the normal hobby box!

 

I mean, I never would have considered a light olive green (tamiya Med. green) as a base for the Sallies.

 

but maybe, just maybe we can all come together for a brother in need. 

 

I make two suggestions for a new recipe,

 

base with 50/50 mix of leadbelcher/black

layer w/leadbelcher

highlight with runefang steel.

coat with a 50/50(or whatever) mix of tamiya's clear green/clear blue.

 

or

 

base with 50/50 mix of lead belcher/moot green 

add runefang to the mix and highlight

add even more silver and edge highlight.

coat with Tamiya clear blue.

 

just a couple thoughts

 

 

and as tomorrow is Ak permenant fund dividend time. I am likely to order an airbrush tomorrow!

Heck yes prime I am excited for you msn-wink.gif

Sadly I just had to pay 400 for a dishwasher to be installed so I'm a while from some more resin.

so you're saying us mortals get to catch up a bit!

and the wife gave the green light. she said pick out an airbrush kit and she'll buy it for me.

looks like I'm settled on the Iwata Revolution with a silver jet air compressor.

so I guess it goes without saying my paint efforts are on hold for a bit.woot.gif

censored.gif yeah! I just got an ebay order in, looks like my praetor is getting that drake cloak! I have already dry fitted it, and will have pics tomorrow. next up it paintng the Praetor.

this is starting to get exciting.

and the missus threw a snag into the "HELLHAMMERS"She likes purple, so it looks like some loyalist EC's for allies for me. I can now justify those gorgeous paltine blades and phoenix termies......with out the whole "counts as" thing! i had a feeling it would be purple or yellow with her!

Haha, my wife thinks the Night Lord scheme is nice, which is sort of against the point.

 

Started building my Iron Hands. Waiting for massacre before I make my oath.
