Chaplain Raeven Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 You can do what you want mate, just don't glue the round support in the hatch. That way you can use the AC's of Landraiders if you ever get a crusader and visa versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJD Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) I haven’t yet sealed any of my army. Mostly because in the back of my mind I never think of them as finished and I plan to go back and fix little bits. I have suggested trying a few games of 8th with a friend and if I am going to be playing and transporting them I think they need varnishing. What varnish would you recommend for this army.

JJD Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 (edited) So I finally started building my Rhino/ Razorback I intend to leave the top loose to swap between the two options so I decided to paint the interior. I’ve had a bit of a nightmare building the rest as my plastic glue had spoiled.

Komodo Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Nice start on rhino/razor. As for weapon option I recently considered las-plas turret, I think in 8th edition you can shoot both, which is 1 las shot and up to 4 plas shots.

JJD Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) Well it’s taken over a month to finish but here is my finished Razorback And because I am a horrendous completionist I used both forgeworld doors but saved the front panel as I though it might get too busy. I will probably use the front panel on the Predator. Now onto the Predator. Let’s see if I can do it in under two months.

Dark Rage Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Very nicely done, like all the little details and the red weapons are a nice touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenz Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Looking good, the details on the console are terrific. And a month is pretty good timing when you’ve got a baby in the house!

JJD Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) @ Komodo - Thanks I am really pleased with this one. My edge highlights are getting sharper. @ Dark Rage - I wanted the red gun to fit in with the rest of the army particularly the land raider. I think it’s the right amount of red. Not too 2nd edition I hope. @ Greenz - 4 and 18 months now and they sure do take up your time. I do like to get all the details I can’t help myself. My only regret is putting the ram on the front as it doesn’t fit in the space in my KR foam and sticks into the land speeder space but hopefully I can work around it.

JJD Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) I’m usually quite focused as I don’t get much hobby time but as I was making a start on the predator I was hit by inspiration. So here is the very early stages of Azreal Supreme Grand Master of the Dark Angels. I need to work out the colour scheme for the robes and there is more green stuff work on the watcher.

JJD Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 I am leaning towards doing the back of the cape purple and the inside bone white. The apron and the hood would also be bone white. I would appreciate any input and suggestions. elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostrael Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 To have a bit of contrast when looking from the front, you could have different colors on the inside of the cape vs apron and hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJD Posted January 7, 2018 Author Share Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) To have a bit of contrast when looking from the front, you could have different colors on the inside of the cape vs apron and hood.That’s what is making me unsure. The armor is going’s to be green obviously so do I make the hood and apron purple or is there a good third colour. Or do I make the hood, apron and rear cape bone white and the inside of the cape purple. I’m struggling to visualize a colour scheme that I am happy with.

Helycon Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I prefer the outside of cloth to be bone colour, and the insides contrasting. It makes more thematic sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostrael Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Jep, go for contrast. Try out a color scheme, best way to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 If it helps at all I went for this for my Azreal - I am not a big fan of purple myself but prefer a dark red ;) Contrasting colours would be the best way to go so as to help the different layers stand out. On the same model you are using I went with this scheme but you would have to pick an alternative colour to the dark green for the rear of the cloak.

JJD Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) I’ve set my mind on bone white robe and outer cape with purple inside cape. It feels right for Azreal unforgiven and Penitent. I’m waiting for the green stuff to dry overnight. He should be ready to prime tomorrow along with the Predator.

JJD Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 I played my 1st game of 8th edition today and where better to start than Warhammer World. It was my first game in about 2 years and I played against my friends new Death Guard. We played 30power level and it was quick and fun. All that was left on the table at the end was his lord of contagion 6 pox walkers and my biker Librarian. I had a great day out and took a quick family photo I think once my youngest starts nursery I will try to make a few more regular trips.

JJD Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) So I decided to finish the Predator before I start on Azreal. I added a layer of highlights between warpstone glow and moot green a mix of the two. The highlights show up a bit more on the table top. Hopefully you don’t think it’s too ‘Tron’. Obviously I painted the inside too. I have a problem. Edited January 31, 2018 by JJD Raztalin, Lostrael, Komodo and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJD Posted February 15, 2018 Author Share Posted February 15, 2018 Very nice work with the Azrael conversion, I look forward to seeing it finished. Awesome army photo at Warhammer world. I’m looking forwards to finishing him. The limited edition Chaplain is a great model. I’ve had the idea for the conversion for quite a while but I’ve been waiting until I had the confidence to try it. I know the idea came from someone posting in this forum. I wish I could remember who it was . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJD Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Azreal is coming together nicely. A bit of touching up sword and banner to go. So can anyone suggest an effective way to paint a black power sword. robofish7591, Interrogator Stobz, Chainsaw89 and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
