+++ Crusade Expansion IX: Banners are up! +++


Recommended Posts

Not sure if it was clear enough but entries do not need to be legal units. Paint a couple of initiates, a dreadnoughts arm or a turret whatever. Just get them done! biggrin.png

eek.gif Oooh reeeally! hmmm. Would that include units/tanks that don't technically exist ?

As long as they are Black Templars.

I will add to the ranks. I will expand my crusade in the truest sense..by adding freshly minted Initiates! I've found some old models I got off of ebay and they are in decent enough shape,so I decided to "rescue" them. Since they are already together and have little in the way of extra bling or templarly bitz, I thought it would be cool to have some "new" marnes who have only just attained the rank of Initiate and so don't have much in the way of seals and what not.

In other words, "I'm too lazy to add and paint a bunch of bling." msn-wink.gif

So long as it gets painted, the Emperor will approve. More importantly, the Paddleum will approve!

sweet!

How hard is it to apply black?

Very hard msn-wink.gif

How hard is it to apply black?

Harder than people seem to think. Or at least, it's harder to do black 'right' than people think. Sure, you can prime them and say "Done!" but thanks to Army Painter sprays and airbrushes, anyone can do that with any color tongue.png

But in fairness, painting black well is still easier than painting red, yellow, or white well. Blues and greens and browns are easy. Purple...purple and I have a love hate relationship.

I Brother Virngrath will paint these models for the glory of the eternal crusade

 

9 initiates armed with holy bolters and a smattering of specials (not quite decided what yet)

 

1 Marshall

1 Castellan

 

These shall be completed by September 21st so wear I in the name of the emperor

I know this isn't exactly my vow but I have managed to sneak in my first attempt at our fellow son of Dorne whilst Dry brushing the drop pods, this is incidentally the first of my models being posted that are actually painted! I still have to add transfers and base him but I am happy with my first Imperial fist so far!
I will get back to painting what I am meant to now!

Once, in 2012. a single chaplain was completed!

I'm feeling lucky this year! The year of two thousand and T14cool.png

And the young whippersnappers need old hands on deck from time to time to remind them that the crusade really has no expiry date!

Crusade Expansion: Successful.

Zeal: Maintained.

Hey, I just painted 10 Sternguard, a Dread, a Techmarine, a Storm Eagle and LRC all loaded down with bling for the ETL. A little simplicity will be a nice change of pace ;)

Hello Brothers!  After a long and perilous entrapment in the warp, I have returned to finally complete a vow.  Emperor knows I've been rubbish at finishing these in the past, so today I vow a penitent painting crusade to reconstitute my forces in the wake of the shift to seventh edition and the shiny new space marine codex.  I'm developing a boot slogger list supported by fast attack choices that I plan to pair with a Space Wolf detachment for maximum Germanic brutality, and will be writing a great deal of fluff surrounding the project to post here for everyone's enjoyment.  So!  Without further ado:

 

I, Godspear, will paint and base these units for my Crusade:
- Marshal Ansgar Stalherz with Relic Blade and Jump Pack

- Emperor's Champion Hexenmort

- One Predator Destructor with lascannon side sponsons

I will have these units completed no later than September 21st, 2014 and I will also provide a picture showing the glorious additions to my Crusade.

Marshal Ansgar "The Alphyn" Stalherz

A solid weekend of painting knocked out. Vow complete. I'll be filling out crusader squads next and outlining a crusade thread, next. Stay tuned brothers. Hope you like the eye candy. biggrin.png

Hi all, Here is my Emperor's champion, charging off to war for the Sanctus crusade!

He has a yellow shoulder pad in reverence to our founding chapter master Sigismund, I am not sure what else to add however you may notice that the sword isn't painted much which I kinda like but if anyone has any good ideas I welcome them. Any other opinions are welcome also!

I hope you like him, more to follow this week!

Heh. Seems I won't be doing further vows because I want to paint my Sisters with what time and energy I have for painting to get them into playable condition, so quite possibly I'll just complete my first vow and then focus on the Sisters.

Right, I have a wee bit to go on my drop pods but the rest is done! I won't be able to get the rest done but I think I am close enough!

I also decided to have a go at painting my high marshal at the same time, probably should have mentioned it in the vow but oh well!

Here they are in all of their Zeal!

My Favourite three: Note the guy on the right is more of a captain than vanguard as I have converted a vanguard chainsword into the Teeth of Terra and have given him an Iron halo.
