And a very small update to my original 4. Painted some more metal trim and tried at weathering with grey but not very noticeable at all

Nice chain glaive! On your painted dudes, I am liking the knightly dohickies on the pads and knees, ace way to break up the black

[depthcharge12]

Thanks helterskelter!!!

 

 

I need to fix my halberd/chainglaive haft though.

 

I will also base these guys this week and put down some primer on my other guys. Sorry my thread has been so slow haha.

 

 

And I just ordered some Jetbikes....

[GhostMalone]

im definitely impressed at the level of improvement already.

 

keep it coming

[depthcharge12]

Here's signs of the new project starting up:

[GhostMalone]

Love it brother let's see some ravenwing!

[depthcharge12]

Thanks Jasp!

 

 

I'm going to build those suckers today hopefully...does anyone think I should use those champion heads instead of the mkIV heads to give my jetbikers more of a knight feel?

 

 

Can anyone give me a good tip on how to paint checkers without making them sloppy freehand? :P

 

 

Oh, and I would like some input from anyone as to what I should paint as their heraldry if you want!!!

 

 

Thanks guys and gals, I will hopefully have more pics up soon (I need to get my girlfriend, who has a photo minor to take my pics haha)

[depthcharge12]

What do you guys think about the champion heads on these guys?

[GhostMalone]

loving the champions head brother, and I think maybe a skull with 3 blades sticking through it for heraldry.

call them the thrice sworn.

[depthcharge12]

Here's some more superficial stuff I've done..all I have left to do on these guys (till the 1st legion decals come out) are their bases, also below is my next batch of guys to get primed and painted :)

 

Sorry for the long wait but school midterms, spring break, and work have had me tied up.

Nothing too fancy to see here, just filling out tac squads, they will have both bolters and additional ccws

Comments are welcome!

Keep it up brother impressive work, loving the depth to the models

I'd suggest using the helmets from the Power Armoured Grey Knight kit, they're dang knightly-looking plus you get the added bonus of a ton of swords, halberds, storm bolters, psychic hoods, and other bitz for future kitbashes. You could use the helmet wings from a Dark Angels veteran pack to mark out the Squadron Leader too.

[depthcharge12]

Here's some more bolter huggers being worked on :) after this batch I will try to do something different like my terminators or Jetbikes

One of these days I'll graduate from kindergarten and learn to paint in the lines lol

[GhostMalone]

Dude you paint 100 times better then a lot of hobbyists in my area

Thanks for the kind words Jasp :)

 

It's a good thing I only just started them as they've got a bit of work to do yet on them
