WarriorFish Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I stocked up on paints before the ETL ;) Though I vastly overestimated how much I'd need for the Baneblade, I got another Castellan for it but haven't touched it :P I look forward to seeing more, just don't forget that a single incomplete vow negates all your hard work so plan it well!

Ldorte Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 Just managed to mix a colour that's pretty much a perfect match for the spray paint so tank 3 is good to go :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3693170 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ldorte Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 Went back and did some more to the first squad, still a few things to do but I'm fairly pleased with them considering I've never painted guard infantry before. Once again I apologise for the terrible picture :p http://i.imgur.com/6jtzQqw.jpg?1 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3720101 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 It's quite a difference going from tanks to troopers but it's all worth it when you get them all together. Keep working hard Ldorte, the Emperor is watching! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3720126 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionofjudah Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Looking great Ldorte!! Keeping pumping out troopers and tanks for the emperor I like your weathering process... I use a Rustall wash I picked up years ago and may add some browns to my tabks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3720128 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoffeeGrunt Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Wow, some industrious work here with sweet results! Especially loving those battle-beaten tanks, (can't wait to see the finished Baneblade!) Continue your hard work for the Greater Goo for the Emperor, of course!

Ldorte Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Another 13 guardsmen almost finished with another 24 undercoated, hoping to have all the basic infantry done today and then tackle the hellhound, sentinel, command squad, heavy weapons teams and commisar next week!

WarriorFish Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Your report has been received soldier, keep this up and you may well earn a commendation from the Commissar! They're very highly sought after don't you know - just don't get caught selling it on =][=bay... :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3724462 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldorte Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Infantry and veteran squads pretty much finished, just need some highlighting and some flock on the bases..... my eyes hurt Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3725007 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 You're really going for it - perhaps a little too much if your eyes are hurting! Take a rest and return to your models refreshed, plus you wouldn't want to make any mistakes with bleary eyes :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3725177 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Juan Juarez Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Interesting use of brown for the shoulders - contrasts really well with the other colours.

Ldorte Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Interesting use of brown for the shoulders - contrasts really well with the other colours. Thanks, it's copper with green drybrushed over the top so in the flesh it still has a dull metallic sheen to it. @warriorfish: I'm taking a break today don't worry (well maybe, i may do some more this evening as the pile of models is looking alot smaller now!)

Now I look again and it actually looks copper-coloured - I have no idea what was going on with my eyes earlier.

Arkaniss Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I like the rusty look, they really do look well used and battle scarred! Any chance of a picture update on your work so far? I'm interested to see the infantry and tanks together.

Ldorte Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 It would appear I managed to miss 4 of the basic infantry when I was finding everyone that needed painting which is why one of the units is understrength (they will be complete by tomorrow evening) Unfortunately only my tablet is working atm so all I can offer is a slightly blurry, flash ruined picture from a distance, but tomorrow I'll get some decent pics up http://i.imgur.com/Tv3s54Z.jpg?1 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3728518 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Great to see them all (mostly) together :D I'll have to do a similar shot when my vows are complete :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3728520 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldorte Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Great to see them all (mostly) together I'll have to do a similar shot when my vows are complete Would be nice if we had an ETL showcase thread for everyone to post up group shots of their completed vows once the event is over (or once people have finished everything they are going to do), that way we could all admire each others work without sifting through 21 pages of the main thread Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290979-ldortes-etl-iii/page/2/#findComment-3728528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
