netminder69 Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 2nd Company 1st Squadron basecoated and decaled. http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/2014-01-30002403.jpg And the first complete test model that has been Quickshaded. (but not matte finished yet) http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/2014-01-30002432.jpg So by tomorrow I should be able to matte finish that first model and get the other ones Quickshaded.

netminder69 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 Got the rest of 1st squadron dipped and they're drying as we speak. I made sure to remove as much excess as possible on the flat open areas and anywhere it was pooling too much. They turned out nice.

netminder69 Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 Alright. 1st company is matted. Bases dry brushed and vegetated. Unfortunately I didn't do my matte spray right and it wrinkled on them. Did it too close. Been having trouble with that lately. Think I'm goign to swicth to a paint on matte. Fortunately it's not somehtign that's too noticeable at a distance. http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/2014-02-01145931.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285802-minotaurs-house-terryn-knights/#findComment-3584312 Share on other sites More sharing options...

netminder69 Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 Thanks! I started painting the Rhinos using the GW spray gun not realizing it went through paint so fast! So I have one fully painted (except the bottom) and 2 half painted Rhinos. That was a whole pot of paint! Went through a whole can of propellant to. I need to get a compressor, although I heard you need a hose adaptor to get it to hook up to the GW gun.

The_Chaplain Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Honestly netminder if you're going to go through all that hassle- you might as well save up and get an airbrush- they are much easier on paint usage from what I have been told.

Captain Semper Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 They look great! Minotaurs are getting quite a following - and rightly so... Would you consider doing some verdigris effect?

moivin Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I would love to see verdigris on these guys :-) all looking great so far. What do you have planned for expansion? I see Centurions and Dreadnoughts with bull horns.....

netminder69 Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 My next expansion is assault Terminators and a Storm Raven. Got the Spartan and Omega shields from Scibor Miniatures to use as their Storm Shields. Also have a Thunderfire to put together. Further on, Storm talons and Sternguards, Ironclad, and would like some Centurions. As for Verdigris... I have the nihilak oxide paint, and have experimented with it a bit, but haven't gotten great results with it yet. Need to practice more before I use it on these guys.

NebuchandnezzarCD Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I'm loving that armour, I've always loved the brass etch for the minotaurs that they do and I'm planning on doing something similar to what you've done with your banner since it gets rid of the need to free hand Keep up the awesome work though these are looking great and will look awesome as a combined force on the table Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285802-minotaurs-house-terryn-knights/#findComment-3588495 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are better off buying a decent airbrush that you can control better.

netminder69 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 I didn't think it was overall bad for base coating the Rhinos. I want an airbrush, just don't have the funds at the moment.

Kronus Stormbringer Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I think if you put vergiris on the marines you have to be very selective about its placement, put it on the actual metal parts of the armour around the collars or wrists etc, honour chains. The armour itself is ceramite painted bronze/gold so wouldnt exactly discolour, and certainly any marine not paying respect to his armours machine spirit by having the chapter serfs and artificers polish it up would get a good slap :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285802-minotaurs-house-terryn-knights/#findComment-3588657 Share on other sites More sharing options...
netminder69 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 If you look at the IA marine images for Minotaurs they do have some verdigris. When/if I do it will be a light highlight.

netminder69 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Got some work done on a Rhino. Base coating parts, mostly logos. http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/5f1af07a0948bba3dbf3058cea27f270.jpg http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/99f76a2cc63fe34f942c59c0ef2d5fa9.jpg http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/f0832de696f90b421cb7c29ed89c72e6.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285802-minotaurs-house-terryn-knights/#findComment-3588716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
netminder69 Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 Progress updates. Had my first game against Necrons. Played The Relic, lost by one. So here's the 2nd Squadron in progress. Need to still get teh XV-88 onto the bolters, the eyes done, some Leadbelcher, Mephiston Red onto the pauldrons and the purity seals. That's about it. Then they'll be ready for decals. http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/2014-02-13110124.jpg Some more work on the Minotaurs logo on the Rhino. Turning out good I think. I'm Quickshading the troops, but not the Rhinos. I'll have to do them with "normal" techniques. http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/2014-02-13110255.jpg http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee260/netminder69/2014-02-13110248.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285802-minotaurs-house-terryn-knights/#findComment-3593474 Share on other sites More sharing options...
