Armond Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 We have come for you... First 5 Heavy Support Squad members with autocannons. No putty work yet, only to fill a few gaps. The putty is drying and will endure some clean up once it is done. Maybe another layer for a little detail or something. I haaaaate the kits in a way (they look BA when they are complete but they are kind of wonky in how they fit a bit). But I figured out the best method for me so I should be good now. Anyway, not sure if I want to expand to ten at this moment. I could use the 5 I have set aside to help make sure my two tacticals are up to 15 apiece. Anyway... C&C always welcome.

Secretpaintgeek Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Autocannons are looking pimp. They seem to be the go to heavy weapon for 30k which suprises me a little as I would have expected to see more missile launchers. Maybe its cause the 30k laucher looks so poo :P Thanks for letting me know about the helmet, will be grabbing a few of those for my iron warriors I think :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/9/#findComment-3663548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armond Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 I picked autocannons because they look awesome! No other real reason, although a master is signal will make these guys hit on 2s if I read it all right. Which if true is pretty nice! Glad you like, I have some other helmets I will be using later to break things up, keep your eyes peeled! IW again? So many of you, almost like you guys are the XIII! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/9/#findComment-3663798 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently working on Emp Children, Night Lords and Iron Warriors. Planning on doing some World Eaters and Raven Guard too. Why pick 1 army when you can havethem all huh ;) I liked using the missile launchers with a master of signal in the few games i have played. Against marines you hit on 2s, wound on 2s and no power armour is going to save you. Also smashes most Tanks without a problem. To me the extra str and higher ap puts them above the Autocannon. That said though the Autocannons do look cool indeed Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/9/#findComment-3663832 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armond Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 I don't have the cashflow to throw around for all those legions! So I am sticking with one until it is probably around the 3k mark at least, or maybe until I fulfill my company sized force I want. I like the idea on the missile launchers, but the autocannons look so awesome! Will be putting together some more today. Fun times!!!

Armond Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 More work on the Praetor. Chainglaive with some work to make it look Master-Crafted, chain wrapped around his wrist/forearm. Also a ragged rear loin cloth since he has one in the front(still debating on it) and a single rune on his right wrist. Here we go, full 10-man Heavy Support Squad Apothecaries; Just put a fanged skull on the belt for the first one and on the second one put some rune-style writing on his right shoulder. othecaries! More coming soon! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/9/#findComment-3665926 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armond Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Oh yes, the paint shall be paid upon the surfaces so to bring the sons of the night to life! Oh woot woot! I will be at work for a bit. Trying to keep the motivation up! Basically in terms of models left for me to assemble, I have a 9-man Terror Squad or a 5 man terror squad and 4-man command squad. Whichever route I go there will be a Phobos Pattern Land Raider for them to ride around in. I know I want a Spartan Assault tank, might be a minute though. I still have a ten man breacher squad I have models to do. I am think of using a few different backpacks, but I need to figure out which. I also need to figure out how I want to do their shields.

Secretpaintgeek Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Ripping along with the progress! Puts me to shame. Eager to see what you do with the breachers. Lots of room on those shields for some nice trophies or something similar Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/9/#findComment-3666757 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armond Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 Yessir, I have a few ideas floating around in my head. Just have to see what I can come up with though. Hopefully I can maintain the momentum. Started messing with the Land Raider, trying to be careful during assembly so I don't mess up and I make sure I can paint the inside.. Thanks for looking!

Armond Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Thanks death! Started painting black onto whatever the spray primer missed and began putting some blue base color on the next squad. Wih I had an air brush for this basecoat blue though, would definitely speed up the process!

Armond Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 Glad you like, I am overall happy with them, and will be polishing them up a bit later, once I get the second squad to the same standard. Speaking of, here is where I am on second squad. Basecoat of blue is done, using black to clean up the pauldrons and other emblems that need to be black. I am going to try and keep bolters just as simple, using mostly black and highlighting/drybrushing with some gray. In any case here ya go: And another shot of 1st Squad: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/9/#findComment-3674787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armond Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 A couple samples of what I am working on: I should be done with this squad of fifteen by the end of the week. Afterwards I will be working on 2 Apothecaries and my "Counts-as"Sevatar." And then guess what? My first ETL vow will be complete and I will make my second one! Anyway, C&C always welcome.

Armond Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 Thanks, although I feel sometimes it takes forever. I only took a pic of three of the fifteen, all the others are up to this point in the painting. Going to do somehighlights and some more details.
