Nemac Vradon Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 So I've been tinkering a little bit trying to make some unique Chaos Havocs for my Death Guard. First off I tried using the heavy bolter from the CSM kit and as the picture shows it was a little heavy one end. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7Bu9Mx9lmaE/Unlb4wBGpYI/AAAAAAAAA28/QcnwH9gIsHM/s400/IMG_0468.JPG I think the chainsword from the CSM Raptor kit looks pretty cool and adds to the chaos feel so I'll be keeping that bit. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nu0czHLeq6s/Unlb-9pYX3I/AAAAAAAAA3E/hHRA7OAHKGw/s400/IMG_0472.JPG This is what I ended up with. Still may look a bit heavy one end but the larger stature of the marine with the bigger pack does help to improve this. I will also be replacing the torso with that of the Forge World upgrade kit I am waiting to be delivered, just to keep the army consistent. And as promised earlier and almost a day late is my Soul Grinder. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BM3csMNd0Lo/Unlfl3ylWlI/AAAAAAAAA3Y/SOjCPP_0aEY/s400/IMG_0476.JPG More to follow.

Chaeron Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Cheers mate. I've just had a look at your tanks and they look really cool. how do you do the dirtied armour look? I'm currently just dragging the brush over the armour in streaks of Agrax Earthshade and Nuln Oil. It works but gotta make sure I don't leave a block of white anywhere or it just looks out of place. Thanks! It's actually a heavy wash of just Agrax to start with, followed by a heavy wash on Nuln thereafter. Will often highlight various things between stages - but naturally the crux as you say is avoiding spots! Use the same system for any form of armour, seems to work well. Love those new guns - great work! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282433-nemacs-death-guard-pics/page/2/#findComment-3514497 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemac Vradon Posted November 6, 2013 Author Share Posted November 6, 2013 So today I received my order of Mantic Zombies. pretty cool kit because you get enough parts to make thirty zombies. Combine that with the forty or so Cadians I got as part of a bits trade with my brother and I think (provided I have worked this out correctly) I should be able to make two units of 30 zombies. I will probably play them as Cultists for now because I'm not sure on whether or not I will have Typhus in my army. I like the model, but, if anything like the current Abaddon model it will be a little small for a terminator. Anyway... http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iPVZh61L9UY/Uno7ZmCNkgI/AAAAAAAAA4g/TyFL09SndUc/s400/IMG_0479.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-JYApY6_dkS0/Uno7Zh8xtcI/AAAAAAAAA4c/WbF1EUlgOnc/s400/IMG_0480.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-85fLAK0EgQg/Uno7ZjNlJoI/AAAAAAAAA4Y/NrUb4NIohuc/s400/IMG_0481.JPG C&C welcome as always.

Nemac Vradon Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 Thanks Uprising :D I have had an idea on how I want the Heldrakes to be modelled in my army. I'm not a major fan of the model for them so I'm going to use Stormtalons instead, but will change them as follows. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-f74oh8eZwtg/Unv_FLds_kI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/vjVPO9v147Y/s400/Hell+Turkey+Plan.jpg And yes I did spend too much time making this picture :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282433-nemacs-death-guard-pics/page/2/#findComment-3516271 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemac Vradon Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 I managed to pick up a Rhino on ebay for a few quid but when I got it, it was in much worse condition than I had expected. the doors where previously mounted with sponsons but soemone had tried to dig them out and it was such a mess that new doors wouldn't fit in. Fortunatley I had still got the middle sections and top plate from the Vindicator upgrade sprue I had bought a while ago and used those to fix it up. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BSiVywmps1A/UoHv7Ky6cBI/AAAAAAAABAs/ASqu0SwxJq8/s400/IMG_0491.JPG The front plate is removable so when I get another vindicator upgrade I can run this as a Vindicator or a Rhino and the same with the next one. all Rhinos in my army will look like this now. because when I do the next Predator it will have the outer sections of the Vindicator side panels to represent extra armour. I also finished the first eleven Zombie Cultists. this is the close combat bunch. All I need to do is the Flamer guy and three more Zombies for this squad to be complete. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-udgq9-82_Fg/UoHwlOwN13I/AAAAAAAABA8/Lflb4PJSSXw/s400/IMG_0492.JPG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282433-nemacs-death-guard-pics/page/2/#findComment-3519650 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemac Vradon Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 I've finished assembling the Havoc squad. Managed to chop out the loyalist shoulder on the heavy bolters to fit in the Forge World one. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FOC2WVG7XU4/UoOEsyqHwDI/AAAAAAAABBU/O6Kbh4BVu_I/s400/IMG_0496.JPG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282433-nemacs-death-guard-pics/page/2/#findComment-3520698 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemac Vradon Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 Thanks Chaeron, I've just sprayed the Havoc's so I'll be working on those next. Progress is getting slower mind, because I'm painting some DA for a friend. Hope to have those done by the end of the week (Sunday not Friday :)).

I'm definitely interested in doing something like that, but this project will have to be finished first.

Son of Barbarus Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 This is a very nice looking army (and by nice I mean gross). I am currently painting a Death Guard army in the same scheme and it has been cool to see your army progressing. Keep up the awesome work!

Nemac Vradon Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 @Chaeron, well I really hope I'm not still doing the same army after 18 years. might get bored of green and white :) @Son of Barbarus, thanks dude, I have neglected it for a few weeks having started a new job, but it is the Christmas holidays soon so I'll have plenty of time to add to it :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282433-nemacs-death-guard-pics/page/2/#findComment-3547157 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemac Vradon Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 OK so I've neglected to add anything to this thread for a good few months now. I have however had a little bit of inspiration recently and started on my army again. First I finished my second predator. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8l6tc1fWEOw/Uy8jsCpiEmI/AAAAAAAABDs/vIZyFojuWEo/s1600/IMG_0517_2.jpg And the first four of a six man squad of Plaque Marines with Melta guns. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cw1niVa3oxs/Uy8jsMZJ91I/AAAAAAAABDo/RYOVAVka4v0/s1600/IMG_0520_2.jpg Enjoy! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282433-nemacs-death-guard-pics/page/2/#findComment-3630904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
