grand_master85 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Sure is. It's a base of 3/5 Sotek Green and 2/5 Army Painter black, followed by a layer of 4/5 Sotek Green and 1/5 Army Painter black. Wash of 1:1:1 Druchii Violet, Lahmian Medium and Water. Quick highlight of pure, unadulterated Sotek Green. Blast of matt varnish spray. Et voila! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyvern Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Awsome work brothers!! And glad to see our first finished pledge any thoughts to increase your pledge brother chaplain? And grand glad to see the you're enjoying the green a lot more then the dreaded yellow lol and i totally agree i only pledged 11 mini's but my lack of progress so far is depressing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Vidius Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 @chaplain mortis thanks! Really simple recipe- Tin bitz base, Boltgun metal, black wash, brown wash(using Windsor and Newton Peat brown ink, really great product!) and then an Agrax Earthshade wash. I like the dark shade of silver it comes out as. Impressive World Eater! How did you do the weathering? I'm thinking of adding some to my Iron Warriors.

grand_master85 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Perhaps what you should do is plan a Legion but also add in some allies. Especially as most of you seem to be struggling between two Legions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Oh well if you have extras that you don't see yourself using, then thats 4 extra test minis or 4 different Legionnaires you could paint in any scheme... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimtalos Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Well I have officially swapped legions. My Sons of Horus will now be my Primary force, while my Emperors Children will be built as a allies force. Sons of Horus, were the army I wanted to do when I first started HH, but I had reserves about being able to do the paint scheme.Now that I have come up with a scheme I can do, I will be jumping in with both feet. I already have a 40k Emperors Children army, so nice to do something a bit different.  So I am changing my Pledge to a Sons of Horus Apothecary, a small pledge but I have all the pieces ready to go. The next few months will be finishing my Terminator squad and Tactical Squad, before doing HQ and Reavers. I also have a AOBR Dread I want to find a home for, how would you convert a Sons of Horus Dread ?  So this is my test model for next months Terminators, not finished yet needs touch ups,  for me to decided on the shoulder pad colours and what  to arm him with. Either heavy flamer or Reaper Autocannon, leaning towards heavy flamer, but not sure if they are good on the table top.  This is also the first Terminator I have every painted in 10+ of being in the hobby, for some reason my old armies never had them.   http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j175/Talos_photos/9ccaf5be-24f1-4ad1-a277-47b485ca8173_zps67d8c70f.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanofAngels Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Everything in this thread looks absolutely amazing! It's got me wanting to order some Forgeworld stuff, even if just to have that feeling of joy when it arrives akin to a child on Christmas morning Maybe I can convince myself I need some contemptors...
