One-eye Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 Thanks all for those kind messages ! Some reinforcements for the siege of Terra, with the special sons of the Emperor, Custodes ! I painted him quickly, they're quite easy if you like washes and glazes (which I do). No special transformation or scheme, been lazy this time. I only removed the spike at the back of the bolter, which I didn't like. 4 to follow !

GrandMagnus Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Glad you removed the spike, it's the one bit about the guardian spears that looks horrible. Otherwise, nice mini.

One-eye Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 Next one, kitbashed the pose a bit, he's a bit more dynamic than the stock ones.

Dantay VI Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Looks awesome, is this the same scheme as painting metallic Imperial Fists (silvers with a yellow glaze)?

ShVagYeR Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Seeing how awesomely you converted and painted those models, and reading Master of Mankind I'm definitely adding Custodes to my 30k force in the future.

The Pounder Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Those Custodes are fantastic! They're a great kit and you've made yours look great.

One-eye Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 Looks awesome, is this the same scheme as painting metallic Imperial Fists (silvers with a yellow glaze)?  No, I used the Retributor gold can they released for Stormcast minis. It's really useful to quickly prime Custodes (over a black undercoat). Then it's mainly washes and glazes (red, purple, yellow and brown).   That Nought is a thing of beauty! Still waiting for One Eye's backstory   Hard to do as English is not my mother tongue, but will try anyway :)  Seeing how awesomely you converted and painted those models, and reading Master of Mankind I'm definitely adding Custodes to my 30k force in the future.  I've got to read that book, but they definitely go well with a siege of Terra themed army.

depthcharge12 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 I like the red gold...sorta like the Gehenna's gold. But you said it was retributor gold?

One-eye Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 Yes retributor, but I used washes of reikland fleshshade and red glazes, that's why he looks reddish.

One-eye Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share Posted December 11, 2016 Third one of the squad, I enjoy more and more painting them. I removed the cloak entirely. While I like it, I would have prefered to have the whole squad equiped and not only one Custodes.

One-eye Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 Hi everyone and best wishes for 2017 ! It's an auto-reply, vanilla Custodes aren't that appealing, are they ? Anyway, here is the 4th one, we're getting close to the end Holidays weren't the best time for painting, but I had a few for modelling, so I managed to assemble a new character for my brotherhood. Brother Kurotu, veteran apothecary of the brotherhood of the Irbis Kurotu is the oldest living member of the 24th brotherhood. Terran originated from the Achaemenid empire, he survived countless campaigns before and after the reunification with the Primarch of the Vth. Always at the forefront of voïd assaults, he developped superior close combat skills for an apothecary. Kurotu is considered with reverence by all his brothers, even the Khan himself whom he's known since his arrival in the Brotherhood. Before the siege of Terra, he was himself quite paternalistic and knew every marine of his brotherhood. However the tremendous losses suffered by the brotherhood during the counter assault on orbital Horus forces turned him into a taciturn, hateful warrior, eager for vengeance against the traitors. All the credits for this mini goes to Krautscientist, which has done his version first and that I loved so much I had to copy it. And I have no shame, it's an hommage... And my apothecary is named after Kraut (a japanese version at least ).

ShVagYeR Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Ohhh I like the Apothecary. His pose clearly shows he's fed up with having to heal yet another careless Chogorian brother. :D Â The Custodian looks spot on as well. I like how much life the red and purple washes give him.

I won't go up to that, but he's quite upset and I'm happy it's showing up on the mini (but again, it's not my kitbash^^). I'm pretty happy with the Custodians, I manage to paint them quickly :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285942-only-victory-is-honourable-white-scars-siege-of-terra/page/17/#findComment-4609532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrautScientist Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 What a wondeful tribute that is! And while the Apothecary does resemble the original model very closely, it also stands well on its own as a loyalist. I like this guy very much! By all rights, he needs to be at home somewhere on the Jermanic steppes, though To those who don't know the model that inspired One Eye's version, I am adding a picture in spoiler tags below, in order to show you what a splendid job he has done. Oh, and while I am here, can I just say I simply adore that recent Contemptor? What a fantastic model! Custodian Guard are looking ace as well! Keep up the amazing work!

One-eye Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 But I'm a perfectionist in my own language Here's the last of the 5 Custodes, the squad's over and I'm really happy (that it's finished & the result) Here's a group shot of the full squad, hope you like them. And before unsheathing my airbrush, I've prepared the first two jetbikes and a centurion (has to be finished). So back to the White scars !
