Atia Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Debating on if I shoud paint any laures purple for contrast or green. For the chest symbols on my Tempar from the IF chests I'm wondering if I should also do the raptor imperialis in purple or leave it black and just give it dark grey highlights like I will be doing with anything that remains black. The legion symbols on those chest I'm still up for debate on whether I leave them gold or render them in black... Hm, i would go with green laurels and black raptors, something like that: http://img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/250pxiftactsb9caxf7qy6.jpg @Kor'vesh: Loyalist's bane sounds awesome :P i hope we get some more traitors here until my Death Guard is finished xD @Fire Golem: can't wait to see the finished sons of horus! @Reyner: pics, pics, we need some pics =) @Brother Vidius: very nice, love the eye of horus emblem on the shield My Hunter-Alpha is now finished, and the Vindicator more or less too (just need to paint his havoc launcher) http://img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/hunteralpha1casz0fre9u.jpg http://img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/hunteralpha25twxul126i.jpg http://img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/hunteralpha3s691rbeqh2.jpg http://img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/hunteralpha42msyt6gkzx.jpg http://img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/hunteralpha5i9djvo67mp.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297409-casual-30k-hobby-challange-month-2/page/13/#findComment-3841893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Thanks Atia, might just leave it black after all. The only reason I contemplated purple / red was because of this kitbash of Alexis Polux by Forgeworld from a while back: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lxk-rBzzx1s/Umaxt_fms9I/AAAAAAAADCE/piioEbxv2Js/s640/Phall-26.jpg And yeah, Laurels are probably best in Green :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297409-casual-30k-hobby-challange-month-2/page/13/#findComment-3841900 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castiel Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 The final progress in week 3 came from the brush of Castiel, who despite smashing his painting lamp when doubting Vulkan’s survival, managed to add another completed breacher to his squad. Vulkan Lives! I have confirmation that I will get my hands on an airbrush on Monday, so I expect my pledge to be completed on time.

Atia Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Yeah i saw that pic too, not sure if i like that, i would go for a crimson fist purple instead, and paint his fist crimson, not his breast (or was he called the crimson nipple ) Off-topic: how can i merge a link and its description for my signature?

frozenfoods Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I should have a Contemptor to add to my pledge as well. I have five days off this week.In fact - Contemptor is far closer to being done than my breachers are. Those shields man. I have to go through so much work to make special decals and unique ornamentation for each one. It's going to be a serious labor of love here.Yeah, I'm gonna swap my pledge. I got my second order from FW in today, (wasn't expecting that, awesome!) I need more time to get each shield personalized and unique to show the trial that each breacher salamander went through to earn their place. I'm gonna get a 9ish man unit of Firedrakes in place of the 5 breachers I was gonna do. I just don't have the materials to rig up the shields right, and I don't think I'll get them in time to make the pledge. I'll get a Firedrake Praetor in place of the 10th, I've already got a few things set up for that one, and call that a show. Edit, I noticed the band at the feet was untouched after taking the pictures and fixed it. Critically inspecting your work for presentation helps fix a lot of issues! Also phone's flash died so a lot of the details were able to be hidden by shadows.

Kor'Vesh Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 @Atia - exceptional work as always! That's 32 points you've won - lets just hope the loyalists can beat that all put together ! @frozenfoods - nice work on the contemptor. Remember you can swap pledges for units worth the same score or more, so 2 points per terminator, 1 per breacher. @slipstreams - great to hear you have painting time! We can still win... But I agree with Atia, the purple looks a bit weird in that picture. Green and black for me too. @barabbas.... Is that a new pledge I see? Ok... I have a paint brush in hand, and 15mins till I have to leave for work... Green painting time...

Barabbas Sogalon Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Yep, a Centurion for the glory of the VIII. It will be interesting to see if I manage to finish on time.

Brother Vidius Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Another quick update, managed to finish the next 4 members of my squad. Just need some squad markings and the bases drybrushed. http://i1252.photobucket.com/albums/hh567/Vidius22/Mobile%20Uploads/photo_zps08a42f79.jpg And a couple of group shots: http://i1252.photobucket.com/albums/hh567/Vidius22/Mobile%20Uploads/photo_zps0eb7815b.jpg http://i1252.photobucket.com/albums/hh567/Vidius22/Mobile%20Uploads/photo_zps9ffa1ea3.jpg Hopefully finish the last 3 members of the squad today and make a start on my Myrmidons. I doubt the heavy support squad will be finished in time, I need to give the ammo feeds the hairdryer treatment Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297409-casual-30k-hobby-challange-month-2/page/13/#findComment-3842738 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reyner Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 The shields look great, makes me want to start my Breachers (I was toying with building them as regular tactical marines but I might magnetise them for the challenge :P) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297409-casual-30k-hobby-challange-month-2/page/13/#findComment-3842825 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Vidius Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Thanks Reyner! I'm happy with how the shields have turned out. I do love the IVth legion but I don't like painting hazard stripes! I've just based my Myrmidons and they are drying just now, hopefully get them primed later on tonight and make a start on them!

FuzzyBunny Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 That's amasing 1000heathens. I hope my Breachers turn out half as good. I'm also going to be going for the mud splattered basing as I figure it will look really good on my tanks as well. Hope you don't mind me stealing some of that.

Castiel Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 So I'm in a good news bad news place so far. The good news is I have a new (or rather old) painting lamp I grabbed from my parents house, so I can start painting. The bad news is that the painting night that I was going to borrow an airbrush at was cancelled tonight, so I now have to paint my 7 remaining breachers and the praetor all by hand for Friday, fortunately I don't have to go to uni on Wednesday or Thursday, so hopefully I can do them then. Of course give time is short I naturally procrastinated and built my Firedrake Terminators rather than painting!

frozenfoods Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I'll take some pictures, had a really hard time getting anything done over the weekend. Birthday celebrations and a Hawks game with the GF. Got the Praetor done though, so the hardest part is down.
