JeffTibbetts Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Going well, but you know that you wrote the name of your knight upside down ? The chest plate goes the ither way around. I didn't notice that either... I guess it's like that so the pilot can just look down and read it when they forget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Well thankfully it can be fixed as easily as a layer of gold paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassWave Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yayy! More knights! Already looking charactful too judging by the modifications to the mask. Is that a blind "eye" I see on the knights head? I guess we'll find out if that was caused by the Jackal. This is the knight that goes with your Ripley inspired pilot right?

miteyheroes Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 That torn-off-mask-and-blind-eye look is very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 Morning guys. Fiddled with the helm a bit, finally got it to sit straight. Here's a little bit closer look. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/661/LyXqVP.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/537/rseHFw.jpg The battle damage isn't quite as smooth as I'd like, so I think I may go back and play around with it a bit more. This should give a decent idea of what i'm going for though. Replies! @ Jaspcat - Knights *are* AdMech! Specially this one. House dan Elsan is really closely tied with the Loyalist Adeptus Mechanicus contingent on Korrianna Forge. @ Slipstreams - Haha, I have two more Ursarax to finish. Maybe that will be my project for today My magos dominus is a rather tame FW Titan tech priest. Could always use another one though, right? @ Teetengee - No worries, and thanks for stopping in to say hi! @ Warspirit - Haha, that's hilarious! Can you tell I've only worked with Cerastus pattern Knights until now? Thanks for letting me know. I suppose I might have figured it out eventually @ J-Tibbs - Haha, I may have some pants labeled like that @ Kol - Indeed! It's Gryphonne sepia wash is already drying. @ Basswave - Yep, all jacked up on the right side from a swipe of Jackal claws. Just nicked the eye enough to kill it. I'm thinking of chopping up those cables on the right side as well. Thunder Daughter (or Kara Ha'kaen in Old Korriannite) is the war mount of the recently promoted Matriarch Julianna dan Elsan. The one you're thinking of is Samantha dan August, pilot of Ga'Hadreel, the god ender. But, she does kinda look like Ripley crossed with Harleen Quinzel doesn't she? @ miteyheroes - Thanks! Truth be told, I have a bad habit of being none to gentle with my plastics when de-spruing them. Just worked out in my favo(u)r this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 ooo looking good, so stealing the damaged faceplate for my Nurgle Knight when I eventually (maybe one day) get round to buying one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flint13 Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Evening guys. Mostly done with the carapace. Just needs those final edge highlights and she'll be all finished. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/537/xEaiy2.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/911/neN4kh.jpg Also started work on the toes ^_^ http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/912/6jslqw.jpg @ STD - Fair enough, borrow away! @ Anaziel - Thanks! That's what I was hoping for. @ Barabbas - Glad to hear it. @ Augustus - Thanks buddy! Not quite as battle damaged as your contemptor, but I'm getting there ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Bjoern Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Exellent work Flint. I like the half torn-away face plate. All the Details are turning out very well, specially the dead optical sensor were the part of the face plate is missing. Just for info, Vorax class Battle Automata are crap to assemble. Three are three too much. Never again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barabbas Sogalon Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Damn, you're painting that knight faster than I can do a simple legionary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Lookin good Mistress Flint, :tu: First mini I see after waking up (or part of) and dayum girl your whites are whiter than white (British Soap powder reference). Whenever I pant white it looks like I have painted with my toes (not a brush, my actual toes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 ll the Details are turning out very well, specially the dead optical sensor were the part of the face plate is missing. I actually missed that earlier and now that I've seen it, I'm even more in awe. Really a cool concept and execution (pun intended!), Flint. Nice work!

Flint13 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Today saw a wealth of time put into the top carapace of my new Knight. Gosh highlights take awhile when you do them right ^_^ Anywhosit, look what (frickin finally) showed up in the mail today! http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/538/sKQrDN.jpg Yay for drunken credit card binges! Replies: @ Dark Bjoern - Thanks! I thought it was a pretty clever idea myself. Still debating how far I want to take the battle damage though. Haha, glad those Vorax weren't high on my "to buy" list ^_^ @ Barabbas - the secret is sushi, a foam roller and netflix. Also, a reckless disregard for my own personal comfort. @ STD - Thanks! I think those few HH 3rd legion Astartes really helped me figured out how to do a solid white color. I seem to be able to mass produce it reliably now. @ Augustus - Glad to hear it came out subtle but awesome. Any ideas on other fun bits I can bang up to make her look awesome? @ Forte - Uh oh... did I accidentally use some risque slang I am unaware of?

Slave to Darkness Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 @ Forte - Uh oh... did I accidentally use some risque slang I am unaware of? If he thought the same thing I did then yes.

Flint13 Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 Evening folks.Got a little work done on the banner. Basically finished except for clean up Also finished the last of the armor bits and got started on the reaper blade. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/537/oIRv6H.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/537/m5eX1r.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/537/vFi8Q5.jpg @ STD - Haha I figured as much.Thanks!@ Basswave - I like to imagine Alan Bligh casually trying to hit the post box with a well aimed toss from his office window, and shrugging indifferently when he inevitably misses for two months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 @ Basswave - I like to imagine Alan Bligh casually trying to hit the post box with a well aimed toss from his office window, and shrugging indifferently when he inevitably misses for two months That would explain why their boxes are consistently beat to Oh, and nice paint.
