Ldorte Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Well I'll hopefully be doing more than the one model so may as well start a thread. Starting point is this Leman Russ: http://i.imgur.com/n5fFoEN.jpg?1 This is the progress so far (only one side semi completed atm): http://i.imgur.com/ok6YyWW.jpg?1 Still a way to go yet :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DAN+ Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Hurry up and get it finished :) The weathering is top notch....not too keen on the gold trim but that's just personal preference. Looking forward to seeing more of your work. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3684249 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldorte Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Thanks the bronze is quite a lot darker in person, unfortunately the flash makes it look very bright but without the flash alot of the weathering is lost.... must get a decent camera :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3684260 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Looks like a well beaten tank! Quick progress indeed, keep it up :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3684279 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ldorte Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Done :D http://i.imgur.com/XsLQ9cr.jpg?1 These are my options for the next vow, hmmm choices.... http://i.imgur.com/Y0HGj9V.jpg?1 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3685546 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Good work, it looks very weathered! I think it could benefit from some block colours added, even if it's only simple things like painting the heavy bolter case black for example. You know what to do next, my Baneblade feels so lonely... So sad, so very sad. If only there was a friend who truly understood what it is to be a super heavy...

Sviar Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I like the rust effect it looks great. Did you use Typhus corrosion with Ryza rust or did you use a different technique? By the way that is a nice collection of tanks. Can't wait to see the Baneblade painted.

WarriorFish Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Good news indeed, I wonder if we could even get a third Baneblade vowed by someone?

Thanks, I don't just use gw paints as it does limit your colour choices somewhat and I find mixing to be a pain on larger models On the russ I used: GW: Chaos Black, Fortress Grey, Shadow Grey and a little bit of Boltgun Metal (although I think I covered most of that up lol) Vallejo: Flat Brown, Copper, Brown Violet Humbrol: Sea Grey, Rust Wash The rust was basically rust wash with a bit of brown violet over the top in places and then the odd bit of flat brown Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3686824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldorte Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 Progress! http://i.imgur.com/ak898zj.jpg?1 Quite a long way to go yet, alot of detail to add. Don't think I'm gonna be quite so harsh with the weathering on this one just a little rust here and there this time.

Ldorte Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 No progress today I'm afraid, once I've had some sleep though I've got a 7-9 hour monster painting session planned, vow 3 may even be started tonight :D As I thought the ETL ended in june (not sure why) I've been a bit on the small size with my vows so far, so the next one should be a bit more hefty :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3688284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Nobody expects constant work, just regular enough to complete in time. That's what truly matters, but we do like frequent updates all the same :) There's plenty of time for you to make some chunky vows if you want :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3688318 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ldorte Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 Thanks, they aren't Vostroyan though.

Ldorte Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Right the 3rd vow is here and we are continuing with the tank theme with 3 more leman russ tanks :) http://i.imgur.com/kURxk3I.jpg?1 Have made some progress already due to the blazing sun outside drying the spraypaint in an impressive 5 minutes! http://i.imgur.com/PLDlbSy.jpg?1 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3692256 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldorte Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 More progress! Lots and lots to do still but I'm confident I'll have all 3 done by the end of the week :) http://i.imgur.com/zlzTl0C.jpg?1 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3692327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 So fast again, I'm going to have to find even more time to paint to keep up! :lol: What an entrance you've made to the Guard section ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3692601 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldorte Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 Hah I'll slow down quite dramatically once I get to the infantry vow!Unfortunately I ran out of sea grey spray 2/3 of the way through the 3rd tank (probs not visible in the pic), shockingly my copper is getting quite low aswell so I wont be finishing this vow till thursday/friday Want to get started on the infantry asap as I have somewhere within the region of 150 ready to be started if you include the hq and elite units, I have a feeling vow 4 is gonna take a while (oh and a hellhound and sentinel) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/#findComment-3693076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
