Akatsuki Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Hey everyone! Just wanted to post my Chapter so far and see whatcha think! I differentiate unit type by the shoulder, typically the right one. Sergeant units have black shoulders with red trim, whereas heavy units have red shoulders with a manilla trim. All of the shoulder emblems and other emblems are hand painted. I find decals to be a pain XD Notice the Akatsuki Cloud (The red cloud with manilla trim) on the middle bumper Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285330-my-da-successors-the-kagayaku-ha-shining-blades/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disruptor_fe404 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Not a huge fan of the kanji all over, but digging the mempo and the scheme itself. Also, go Team Gurren!

Akatsuki Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 thanks, I went with the Kanji because I wanted to go with the samurai/japanese theme (that's why my vets and my chapter master have samurai helmets) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285330-my-da-successors-the-kagayaku-ha-shining-blades/#findComment-3562326 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disruptor_fe404 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Yeah, I figured! It's one of those subjective things, y'know? And you're very consistent with it, which is great!

Dark Rage Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Very nice force, really nice conversions and I really like the Akatsuki icon insignias especially the ones on the black robes.

Augustus Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 The only thing about using kanji is it sometimes gives off an Elder rune vibe. However nicely done. The Unforgiven Legion grows.

Aleax Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Osh, I would like to have your painting skills for your insignias and different writings...! :) And I find it the best too for making them DA successors, Samurai and Dark Angels, same Honor, almost same deal. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285330-my-da-successors-the-kagayaku-ha-shining-blades/#findComment-3562947 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Write up an IA article? I get watcha mean about the eldar runes... I thought about it and told myself, "screw it! thy're friggin samurai. they'll just cut the eldar down if they complain" XD Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285330-my-da-successors-the-kagayaku-ha-shining-blades/#findComment-3563076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
