Vazzy Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Dude, I always look here but never comment on it. I love all the stuff you work on, so I'm not sure why it's taken me so long. Anyways...I'd be happy to name a simple assault marine. Gregaras Basqess "Ironheart", if that's cool with you? Question though, are you using Microset/microsol on your decals? I have not seen you mention it but they look great! Augustus b'Raass 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson73 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 It'd be a privilege to name one of your battle brothers; 'Arios Taal' is my choice.

Nemac Vradon Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The assault marines are looking really great Augustus :). I especially like how you use so many different bits and bobs to make each marine truly individual. I would love to see a picture of the entire IF army at some point. It would be pretty cool to see all the marines you have done in close proximity to each other! Also Adolar Notker looks awesome :D Nemac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemac Vradon Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) I hadn't realised actually how large your IF's have become. That is one phenomenal army dude, I hope to see more of them in the future . The KDK are also very cool but Captain 8 Legs takes the trophy for me, such a cool conversion! Thank you for fulfilling my wish, I would have liked it but I used all my likes for the day in Kalrath's Ultramarine thread.

Maarten Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Played a game against Augustus' KDK today. Beside utterly destroying my poor dark mechanicum(eldar) he also showed me his massive hobby collection. And honestly, these are probably the nicest armies I've seen in the flesh. Had a ton of fun while getting tabled though, although I hope to cause more than 4 wounds over 2 games with my 12 different D weapons next time.

Thousand Eyes Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Cheers for sharing the full pictures there. I don't feel bad at my much more minor collection now :) They look great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) Thanks, guys!Alright, second half of first assault squad finished! It's not going fast enough. The tournament's in less than three weeks and I still need to paint ten assault marines and build and paint ten devastators! better hurry up.Anyway, here's pictures! VII Assault Squad http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170228_001_zpsct1zuvht.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/09ebd16f-b5e4-4f5b-83f6-85c0be0cb858_zpsckz6cels.jpg Veteran sergeant - Faramund Brandt - Venomlust An aloof Astartes at the best of times, Sergeant Brandt commands his squad with an iron fist, brandished in faith. An devout follower of the Lectitio Divinatus, he demands nothing but the utmost dedication to the Emperor and the fiercest zeal in battle. Both captain Landa and chaplain Kaprelian keep a sceptic eye on his behaviour, but so far neither his words nor his actions show any deviation of the codex or the Imperial Creed. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170228_016_zpswcuynyfr.jpg Weapon Specialist (Flamer) - Totis Adors - Knight of the Raven Brother Adors is as devout as he is aggressive, seeing the meticulous destruction of the enemies of mankind with his flamer as the manifestation the fire of faith that burns in his heart. Adors has a Fleur de Lis symbol tattooed on his left cheek, a commemoration to a joint action with the fledgling Adepta Sororitas. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170228_025_zpszu0lwzyj.jpg Battle Brother - Inigo Vetinari - DarthPenguin A grizled veteran, brother Vetinari's callsign is his given name of 'Inigo', a rare occurrence only seen in another VII Squad Astartes, brother Grawert. The apogryph story of his recruitment at the young age of 6 standard years, is reportedly the origin of this. It is whispered that his mother could be heard screaming his name over the fields at night by the recruiting Chaplain as he rounded up his abductees into the Thunderhawk Lander. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170228_028_zpsiwi3chsa.jpg Battle Brother - Stavridis Zepivir - lionofjudah Brother Zepifir is young and brazen, and has sworn an oath to let go of his chainsword weapon when and only when he has slain a score of Traitors. To this hand, he has symbolically chained his weapon to his wrist, an act that has earned him the respect of his brother astartes of VII squad. He is regularly seen visiting and praying at the holy reliquaries of the chapter's Reclusiam. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170228_022_zpsfrls3x9u.jpg Battle Brother - Adeal Grawert - The Traitor A brutal assault marine, Brother Grawert's onomatopoeic family name is also his callsign "Grawr", given to him after his brothers of VII squad heard him growling 'grawrrr' over the comms chanel whilst in the midst of a unit of cultists. The growls quickly became roars, and Brother Grawert did not stop until nothing was left of the cultist but a pile dismembered of dismembered limbs and bodies in a pool of viscera and gore. After the battle, Brother Grawert was approached by Vexilarius Zol'Tara, who slapped him on the pauldron and said something to the effect of "You own your name, don+t you, Grawr!", after which the company comm line erupted in laughter.

C&C welcome! Replies!@ Nemac Vradon: Yeah, it's gotten pretty big. It's weird, because I really only paint units I intent to use, plus dreadnoughts. My Night Lords are a larger collection, but I never use 80% of them - I'm even =considering selling those! No worries about the likes, I'm much ahppier with your continued commenting here. @ kizzdougs: Ha! You're most welcome to one - XIV Assault Squad has a flamer position and some regular brothers open - and only XII devastator squad's officers are named, all others are free Check here for the list. @ Grizzly_bear: What kind of work? @ Maarten: duuuuuude, Saturday's were awesome games. I would love to see that army painted up. I'm going to do a shout out comment specifically once I find your thread again. @ hushrong: You're real nice! @ Black_out: Cheers, buddy! And thanks for noticing. I'm a firm believer in the philosophy that each and every marine in your army can be unique by using the right bits and getting the pose just right. @ Eldrick Shadowblade: You got it! Pyrese Tor stands in yellow clad. @ Thousand Eyes: Glad to it!

The Traitor Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) Great work as usual, I'm not sure about the blue sphere sat the back of the jump pack, but everything else is spot on! I don't know if it is physically possible for a human to paint any faster at that quality than what you're doing right now, but you can surely try (be careful though, you might not realise what day is it and let the tournament pass without knowing when aproaching relativistic speeds) . Edit: also noticed that you used the cool sword with the skulls on the model I named ;)! Great use of the name by the way, hadn't thought about it that way haha!

hushrong Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 These are sweet! Great builds and paint jobs on those marines. It also looks cool but I think that handsome Templar robe and a jump pack would be dangerous. Then again a super human in armor with rockets on his back was dangerous enough to begin with.

Thousand Eyes Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Those are some nice builds. Regarding the deadline, will you end up sacrificing detail work to get everything done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) Thanks, guys! Here's WIP pictures of the second half of the second assault squad I'll be painting. I spent today building the devastator squad. When I get pictures, I'll post them here too. Incidentally, most of these guys aren't named yet. Anyone is most welcome to name one. Vexillarius - Scaffir Smidte - Scion of Ferrus (with fluff) http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170301_015_zpszxsfzmw2.jpg Battle Brother - TO BE NAMED http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170301_011_zpskriukof2.jpg Weapon Specialist (Flamer) - TO BE NAMED http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170301_004_zpsnmwctgsf.jpg Battle Brother - Serje Pantimion - Black_out http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170301_008_zpsapc9vl2w.jpg Battle Brother - Jorug Stael - hushrong http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/WP_20170222_019_zpswp0cf776.jpg Thanks for looking, and for your comments. They keep me going more than likes - and I really need to keep going!Replies: @ The Traitor: The blue spot is the power coil on the back - at least I interpreted that bit as a power coil. Nono, the tournament is the 26th - not the 20th. Which gives me a little leeway, luckily. And I'm happy you liked the fluff of your mii. @ hushrong: Templar robes are dangerous, no matter if you're wearing a jump pack or not - a dangerous fashion statement, that is. Robe wearing power armoured marines are ridiculous, I agree. But you know, rool of cool. @ Thousand Sons: Hellz no! Quality before everything else. I just use the deadline as a way to motivate me. Who hasn't turned in their paper at 11:59 PM before the due date? It'll require extra planning and dedication, no doubt, ut it's certainly possible given that I need about 18 hours to paint five marines.
