Sorry man! I knew someone else had to be doing it. The gold is actually coming out a lot better now

That's Vallejo skeketon bone air primer > Vallejo Glorious Gold game air > GW Seraphim Sepia wash

 

Hopefully tonight will see me prime and get the gold onto a good chunk of the army

 

Although I'm 2/3s of the way through Talon of Horus and the urge to go black is strong...

Huge improvement there between the two :tu:

[aceytrixx]

Cheers I'm much happier with the colour now I'll hopefully get some progress done tonight. May end up making a progress log since I have 1500 points to paint in two months so extra motivation always helps.

[aceytrixx]

It cannot be denied; we are the most fabulous of them all:

So I kinda want to use this as inspiration. By which I mean rip off completely for my chosen if that's ok with you Dammeron if they are yours? Are they Bretonian Pegasus wings by any chance?

[Forté]

Dark Eldar Scourge wings ;) Edited January 9, 2015 by forte

[aceytrixx]

Had totally forgotten scourges existed. 6 in a box is a much better deal than the Pegasus wings anyway. Good job my chosen are in a squad of 6 at the moment

[Teetengee]

Only five, unfortunately. But still a better deal.

[aceytrixx]

No I mean there's 3 pairs of feathered wings which should go on 6 marines since I just want one wing per model

[Teetengee]

Ah... makes more sense. Have any plans for the other two sets of wings?

Someone fishing for bits eh ;)

Welllllll only maybe (I am aware of the forum policy on such activities), although mainly I was wondering if they might end up being used for some nurgle conversions, I have seen some good ones in the past.

[aceytrixx]

I have no plans for the other wings no. Quick work in progress of a rhino. Although I have managed in a complete moment of spectacular ineptitude to glue some of the spikes the wrong way round....

Need to work on cleaning up where the purple and gold meet among other things. Hopefully get this finished and the vindicator done this week. I was going to start on infantry but after stripping my old ones down I think I'm just going to pick up new ones. Also means I can arm them with bolters should I choose since I cant find all the other arms on my bits box.

[Kierdale]

I got my first squad of Noise Marines done at last.

Basing will come later (might do them on the newer, larger bases).

And with the pushfit test marine added in (for the sacred six )

And the Eldar soulstones he is snacking on...

[Slips]

*Girly Cartoon Voice* EEEEWWW GROSS!

 

I like it!

Absolutely fine by me, sir; have fun with the theme! Dark Eldar Scourge wings (the Scourge and Talos boxed sets are invaluable treasure troves of Slaaneshi bits).

[Augustus b'Raass]

Hi everyone, I'm not an EC player but I AM working on some Night Lords noise marines, and I DO have something to tell you guys which I hope you'll like.

 

I'm starting a new B&C event soon called Augustus' Arena: the B&C Inter-Frater Hobby Challenge, the purpose of which is to strengthen the bonds between B&C frater through friendly hobby challenges. The intent is that any frater can challenge another frater to make one legal unit within a time frame set my the challenged, while the challenger acts as a coach and motivator to the challenged, with feedback and encouragement on the updates of the challenged of his/her progress. If enough frater join in, this will create a dense interconnecting network of challenges that will yield a ton of fun, banter, and hopefully excellent miniatures. Of course there will be cool banners, medallions and awards in the end.

 

if you hedonists like the idea, please let me know and I´ll post an invite here

I present Lord Commander Flavius Caligula formally of the Emperors children, he commanded several companies at the siege of Terra, with the failure of the Son of Horus and with the legions scattered, Caligula and his remaining forces fled to the eye of terra, emerging from the eye after the resource draining legion wars he has been scouring the galaxy at the head of a war band known as the Sons of Decadence.

Sorry for the pic quality my camera won't use its auto macro and there is no way to switch it on manually :/ 

[Forté]

Lovely Lord you have there :tu:

[Augustus b'Raass]

That *is* a nice Lord. With more and more frater succesfully using those lovely whips, I admit I'm tempted to get some myself...

[Flint13]

Hah!

 

... Phrasing.

 

But yeah, Phal, that lord looks great. Super creepy!

[Forté]

Got to love the use of bald, noseless faces. Always adds that something extra.

[Phal Brannon]

Cheers guy's, yeah not sure why Slaanesh mutations have no nose but they look cool!

[Teetengee]

It is the snake theme I imagine.

Hello. 

 

That's enough small talk. Please, please tell me how you managed that stunning orchid / pink-purple colour. It's awesome.
