Combat_Vet Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I got my first mini completed for my penance vow. Not to worry I will be making further posts only when I finish squads/vehicles/characters. I just wanted to make a post as I have at least finished the first one (only 50ish more to go).http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/Ultras/5F44709F-2C97-4E83-8D2A-03D50CC95011_zpsqopxoe8f.jpgI can at least give away this mini as table top quality without feeling bad about it.The penance vow/army will be at least 1500 points worth of Ultramarines when I am finished.

Combat_Vet Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 I got the dismounted scouts finished.http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/Ultras/ACD24F61-8752-4805-AB06-9D048B83D7C5_zpsswqmg3xx.jpgI should be able to complete the vets and centurions by next week. If so that will put me around 15% complete or so. Thanks CPT, I will keep plugging along (even if it's just to get all this blue out of my work area ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Guy Matt Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Is one of those dismounted scouts an old metal model or does the plastic kit just let you perfectly recreate him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 @Battle - thanks brother @ Asamodai - two of the standing scouts and the missile carrier are metal, the other standing scout and the SGT are plastic. I made the squad out of my bits box while I was waiting for my order to arrive :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSocks Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 These are excellent, very jealous, I've recently started painting up scouts for my ultramarines and they're no where near as good as these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Ok, I haven't forgotten about this vow :) I've just been having issues (which is what got me here in the first place). Anyways, here's a few completions for my vow and I should have A few more up tomorrow. http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/Ultras/2A09EABC-9CD4-4639-9874-C6C96DDAC119_zpsf81ormr6.jpg http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/Ultras/52B02359-B98A-4744-BF6B-B24FAA934C73_zpsnrcvnsoj.jpg http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/Ultras/9F69B5A2-667C-4CFF-94AE-555E92637BD2_zpstje1pwkh.jpg I am not going "super fancy" on them for a few reasons. I am giving them to a non painter so I'm trying to get them as close to "box cover" as possible and also I have A LOT to paint hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Transport for the Centurions and a techmarine. No copula weapon as I have to find out want the guy getting the army wants up there. http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/Ultras/E25E3AF3-4183-443E-B42D-45D667509031_zpsntj84vcf.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLOODSAINT Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 These are some good looking smurfs! :) Great job on these, you've made them feel special, not generic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 @Burias - Thank you very much @BloodSiant - I want them to be the same as the box covers but I am still using this as a learning experiece. Minor conversions and pieces from various kits. It's hard not to paint a decent Smurf :) thanks for the kind words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combat_Vet Posted January 20, 2015 Author Share Posted January 20, 2015 I broke the Tactical Squad in half for painting (too much blue). The second half should be done soon and the scouts for the storm are half finished. http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/Ultras/1ED2F767-1EDB-4423-AB13-78A8D30DEA51_zpszjyncgv1.jpg My vow exploded from 1500 points to almost 5000 which I didn't mind as it was for a friend. Over the holidays real world events changed and I am going back to my original vow of 1500 points ( give or take). I really hope that isn't a huge issue. I doubt I'll have a problem finding a home for the Smurfs when I'm done regardless. More to follow soon(ish). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appiah4 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Some of the bases really need some loving.. Especially those Tacticals.. Even a bit of flock or sand would help.. Please? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted January 31, 2015 Author Share Posted January 31, 2015 Appiah5 - I hear you Brother, I really do. I just want to be finished with the Smurfs to be honest. It'll give the new owner some experience to base them I suppose. It's all about my freedom at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
