Candleshoes Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Those colours on the right pauldron's shield make the model and bring everything home. Excellent work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Carnelian Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Wow. That Marshal has so much character. Love your use of the Centurion head as well. It makes him look even more unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Christopher Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Thanks for all the kind word. They really are appreciated, as they show that some people look at my work and enjoy it. Lord Andreas, the base for the inquisitor is called "Alaine, female paladin" from reaper miniatures. Just a word of warning: she is roughly as tall as a Space Marine, maybe even bid taller (depends on the perspective, I guess). That was quite a big issue for me when I 'discovered' that nasty fact.

Brother Christopher Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 As it often is with me, I'm starting numerous projects to leave them after some time. I'm trying now hard to change that, and limit myself to two ongoing projects: one scratch-building and one painting. That way I'm hoping to have a steady progress of things. I managed to paint a Black Templars Relic Contemptor and without much further ado, here are the pictures: http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1090648_zps0263c1be.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1090652_zps0cd4cd2a.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1090650_zpsa1777507.jpg It seems that dreadnought are now the thing for me, as I'm currently working on an Ironclad: Progress on the highlights. It took me two hours to get from this: http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1090707_zpsf27dd7f0.jpg to this: http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1090800_zps7160e73d.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1090801_zps2dd59219.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1090802_zps0827ad4b.jpg I'm not sure if the amount of time and work shows in the quality of the edges, though. I'm finding it annoying to discover that my pace is becoming slower and slower. Anyhow... C&C as always welcome. Thanks for reading! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Christopher Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 Years have passed since I've updated this thread. This is due largely to two facts: I'm not a consistent hobbyist and I've posted most of my progress in the thread in the Black Tempalrs subforum. But, as I'm proud of having actually finished painting some models (unfortunately, only 'finished painting', not 'finished as such' because the bases are still in a raw condition) and I remembered about this thread, I decided to post some pictures of my Black Templar Centurions. Let me know what you think! http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/2%202_zpsr4uwbavv.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/3%202_zpsjkkmutjc.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/1%202_zpsqw1lp12f.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/2-2_zps4dkwo8ll.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/3-2_zpsfssqz4va.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/3-3_zpsrzi1cobb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldier of Dorn Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Noice. Freehand is on point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Christopher Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Cheers for leaving the comment and visiting. I'm trying to add some character to the models with freehand painting (and to turn people's attention away from the overall quality of my painting with something that seems 'nice' at first glance).

Dosjetka Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Your freehand decorations really help me forget that I strongly dislike the base models. Nicely done. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Christopher Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 I want to share something red. Below are some photos of my Thunderfire with a Techmarine gunner and my (ekhem) Master of the Forge with all the equipment one needs to mend a tank, kills some xenos and watch a favourite TV series at the same time. The MotF is equipped with two servo arms for HEAVY lifting, a plasma cutter and a flamer, a conversion beamer and a 'handy' servo arm for precision work, welding, holding beer and what not. In total, it seems, he wears a servo harness weighting an equivalent of a storm talon (and that is why he's kind of short - the weight shrinks him a bit), but that's no problem because he has further reinforced power armour, especially the leg compartments, to help the MotF move with a reasonable speed. On the other hand, the servo arms (which may not be that visible in the pictures) are designed to move across more plains than the standard equipment used by most techmarines, which thanks to an array of sensors and cameras allows Mr MotF to limit the necessary movements to a minimum. http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Master%20of%20the%20Forge/tfctechmarine_zpsk3tdgow7.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Master%20of%20the%20Forge/tfctechmarine2_zpsfkk8vszk.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Master%20of%20the%20Forge/MOTF1_zpsecrjcxnw.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Master%20of%20the%20Forge/MOTF2_zpsyo9fwbbv.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Master%20of%20the%20Forge/MOTF3_zps6rcsejxe.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Master%20of%20the%20Forge/P1040309_zpstwp3zbk4.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Master%20of%20the%20Forge/P1040300_zpsoirlzcqe.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Christopher Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 Here are some more completions. Finishing the 'squad' below took me almost a year, but I'm glad to have them done!

Brother Argent Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Every time I see a Templar army it makes me want to collect a Crusade. Or at least an army with tabards. Looking good mate. Particularly like the free hand Maltese Cross on that last guys tabard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Christopher Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 Thank you good sir for dropping by and leaving a comment! And I recommend you start a crusade and drop by the Black Templars subforum - you'll find plenty of cool stuff, encouragement and zeal there!

Brother Christopher Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 I got myself to finish a squad of Sword Brethren which took me about 5 years to finish. The models were painted at various stages of development of my skills, so I updated them to a more or less consistent standard. Unfortunately, as the photos show, I actually will have to do something about the faces of the two Templars below. These classic Templar Models were always somewhat special to me, a shame they didn't see much action back when I used to play the game. Here they are: http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1040405-2_zps6broavnw.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1040406-2_zpsyzdqzk42.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1040407-2_zpsczaucljk.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1040408-2_zpsaonaftse.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1040409-2_zpsnxbujthc.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1040411-2_zps5tbafkwc.jpg http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k260/krj_38/Neurode%20Crusade/P1040410-2_zps2uniwzcg.jpg Thanks for viewing!
