9x19 Parabellum Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 They are both terrible. Send them to me, please Damon Nightman 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyriks Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Omg those look PHENOMENAL! Don't worry about the difference, it's not enough to be weird. You'd expect different wear patterns on different pods. Also side note falling faster would burn hotter, not the other way around ;) Father Mapple 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flieger Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Put enough Agrax or Nuln over both until they look the same. Nah, way to easy! Nice weathering. Looks very much like it was burning from orbital insertion. Thanks, sir! Say that a dreadnought falls faster, and so the paint has less time to burn off or dull. Also, he is more cherished by the chapter, so they paint it more often as it is his alone. Great weathering! Seen many try to do this, but I like yours best for that "orbital re-entry" look. It is usually not heavy enough on other people's. Thanks, though this kind of weathering looks good mostly on vehicles - it blends the colours too much on smaller infantry models. They are both terrible. Send them to me, please Are you sure you want them? They don`t seem to be in good condition... Omg those look PHENOMENAL! Don't worry about the difference, it's not enough to be weird. You'd expect different wear patterns on different pods. Also side note falling faster would burn hotter, not the other way around Thanks, I appreciate it! And after all, on the tabletop the doors will be open - no one will see the red for too long.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Since Scouts are popular right now here's a teaser to the squad to come. http://i1190.photobucket.com/albums/z460/Dont-be-Haten/5B97C52C-2E29-4905-913F-07702ACE8B06_zpsmhwwz8ne.jpg http://i1190.photobucket.com/albums/z460/Dont-be-Haten/AB901E40-2A04-4BC9-99E2-B32E5C9177E1_zps3oymaews.jpg LutherMax, Flieger and Sans Mercy 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spagunk Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Nice weathering. Looks very much like it was burning from orbital insertion. Thanks, sir! Just an FYI, I am insanely jealous on how you pull it off. Scorch marks and scuffs are one thing but you got the pattern spot on and your rusting is dead on perfect. Not bitter at all...nope...

Seems to be the rebreather mask head from the 4th ed. tactical box. You know, the one with the strangely thin head, that looks like it got squashed in the trash compactor? http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/zvEAAOSwstxVC6Re/$_1.JPG Edited February 9, 2017 by appiah5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, does anyone know what heads DBH used? 4th ed Tactical, as well as the rebreather from The Land speeder, the rebreather from the Sanguinary Guard and the new rebreather from the BA tactical. The rebreather//antennae from the Baal Predator and the rebreather fancy Assault TDAs are also options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazcruzk Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Good thinking with the rebreathers, really nice way to use them. I guess I know what I'm going to try the next time I make some scouts! Dont-Be-Haten 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Just ordered some amazing shoulders for my Carmine Blades! They are super fancy! I'm so stoked about getting them! Damon Nightman 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Need to start a second coat of red on my thirteen dudes tonight. Dreading it. Tempted to glue the components together now and then put on the second cost to avoid painting lots of fiddly bits. Never going to be efficient at this :( Riot Earp 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I always have the desire to glue everything together first, and I still end up painting in pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Still yet to start as now I'm dithering over it and procrastinating. Argh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that one of the thirteen dudes or did you abandon them in the end? :D As for the topknot, entirely up to you I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 Yes, he's one of the current batch. Thinking of green but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 In the pics I've seen the topknots seem to be white, regardless of armour colour... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I like purple top knots. It is usually a good contrast to most colors. It depends on the color of the armor though. A really light blue wouldn't be terrible, maybe Barroth Blue with Nilotic Oxide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Painting a Thunder Warrior (power armour Mk I). Any idea on what colour the top knot should be for a Blood Angel? Black or white. Or white with black stripes/vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 About to start on my second squad for my 10th company formation. Having a go of what I want to equip them with. I'm thinking shotguns and a heavy Bolter or is the regular Bolter a better option? Maybe a mix of each? I can always shoot the heavy bolters pistol if I need to charge.

Jolemai Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Ah Scouts. My favourite subject. Have you read the Scout guide in the VV? It needs updating since the errata but the gist of it is still applicable and may help. Dont-Be-Haten 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHelion Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 My opinion is that shotguns are a compromise between the firepower of the bolter, and the assault power of bolt pistol/ccw. Given this, you don't want to give shotgun scouts a heavy weapon, because you give up their ability to double-tap and charge, and because you want to be close for shotguns, but heavy weapons want to be further away. Heavy Bolter or Missile launcher both work wonders in bolter scouts, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I'll be mulling this question over myself soon when I build my second squad... meantime though I've been working on my second Sanguinary Guard squad. Here's a quick Blu-Tack job of three of them: http://www.themightybrush.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Sanguinary-Guard-WIP-01.jpg Arkaniss, SM1981, Dont-Be-Haten and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
