ChaoSam Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Okies so after 8 years in and out of the hobby I decided that I would do something unthinkable; complete an army. It's a 26th founding codex chapter in it's infancy. The chapter name derives from a quirk of the geneseed; an overactive betcher's gland, which turns a battle hardened astartes into a slavering animal in the heat of battle. As such a Venomous Maw marine will never remove him helmet even outside of combat, and only the most honoured and veteran battle brothers are permitted to enter into close quarters combat unless absolutely necessary. Speaking of which,,, http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0057.jpg Acutus Lingua, Chapter Master of the Venomous Maw http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0059.jpg Honoured Brother Arcturio, Personal champion of the Master http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0060.jpg Honoured Brother Markyurio, chapter banner bearer http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0058.jpg Honoured Brother Callifex http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0061.jpg Honoured Brother Graxinth (burdened with the honour of rare mk vi power armour, a scarcity in such a young chapter) http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0062.jpg Honoured Brother Vansk http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0054.jpg finally a humble tactical marine and my test piece (all comments/questions/criticisms welcomed) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283851-venomous-maw-diy-chapter/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaoSam Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hail brothers, a busy day and muchos distractions meant I haven't managed to get any paint on my models today. HOWEVER that'll change soon, and as a lil teaser of what's to come may I present to you  http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0063.jpg Ferrum Craw, Master Artificer (forge father) of the Venomous Maw Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283851-venomous-maw-diy-chapter/#findComment-3533348 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaoSam Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 so built the last tac marines I could for now (the new tac box makes wanting all my marines in complete marks of armour difficult lol) http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0074.jpg And my first ever attempt at decals went okay, although it could do with being a lil lower I guess http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0073.jpg Hopefully get these fellas all painted this weekend, and then maybe my techmarine as a treat thanks for all the praise btw, it'll go to my head Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283851-venomous-maw-diy-chapter/#findComment-3534082 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoSam Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 So I made a start on my first tac squad, and whilst I'm a painfully slow painter for the first time I'm really enjoying painting my models xD (more of a gamer)  http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0075.jpg  A vibrant red mist filled the air as the perfectly orchestrated barrage of bolter fire met the massed charge of heretic scum. Cilan's enhanced senses could taste it, and it made him salivate. "sergeant, enemy armour on our left flank fast approaching!" The brother sergeant looked to the left, whilst lazily spraying the oncoming cultists. An unseen grin fell across Cilan's face,and he turned to meet this new threat; A leman russ battle tank approached, it's many heavy bolters spitting death and it's punisher cannon roaring, festooned with chaos symbols and banners proclaiming the omnipotence of it's new gods. The mighty vehicle pressed in on the tactical squad, it's weapons all coming to bear down on the already beleaguered Venomous Maw. Sergeant Cilan raised his combi melta one handed and laughed; "I've eaten bigger things than you".    Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283851-venomous-maw-diy-chapter/#findComment-3534473 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaoSam Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Not had much time for my marines lately what with it coming up to xmas and black friday and stuff (yay working in retail ) but have been making steady progress painting up some marines and sternguard. WIP pics on the way at some point but until then: http://i1256.photobucket.com/albums/ii491/comradechaos1/DSC_0078.jpg Picked these fellas up today from my local GW. I'm pleased with how the catachan heads worked on the scouts (they were in a baggy in a draw for the last 6 years) but I think the h.bolter guy is deffo my favourite. Not sure what to paint their fatigues though what with their armour being white and pauldrons purple. Suggestions, comments, criticisms etc all welcomed :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283851-venomous-maw-diy-chapter/#findComment-3538718 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what to paint their fatigues though what with their armour being white and pauldrons purple. Suggestions, comments, criticisms etc all welcomed The Heavy Bolter guy reminds me of Random (X-Factor, Marvel comics) Quite a characterful group with the Catachan heads As for the colour scheme for the scouts, perhaps a darker shade of white or even grey, with a much darker shade of purple as scouts have to be able to blend into their surroundings Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283851-venomous-maw-diy-chapter/#findComment-3538724 Share on other sites More sharing options...
