Ekgar_Wolf Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I will start tomorrow, the job has taken all my hobby time these 2 months. I hope I can paint them in two weeks. Here you have the minis, primed in sw grey spray (Wolf Lord in grey). http://fotos.subefotos.com/0f9838bb9bf417679f21b34d5f07b55do.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298350-2014-solstice-advance/page/7/#findComment-3912606 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Man real life managed to kick me in the teeth. Especially with my ambitious vow. But I finally have everything assembled and I will post pics when I get home tonight.

Vykryl Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Somewhere during the paint stripping process I lost my Lone Wolf's Wolf Claw. So he will be getting a custom weapon that will count as whatever I can get away with instead. I still need to prime and paint him. Plan on getting some new small paint brushes tonight so I can finish the 3 Wolf Guard that are nearly finished. If I stop reading on here when home I should complete my vow this weekend Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298350-2014-solstice-advance/page/7/#findComment-3913000 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 My vow is now underway. Hit a few snags almost from the get go though... Leadbelcher has run out and I spilt my nuln oil so none left... However this is to be considered a challenge not a problem. Going to try Agrax earthshade for shade and shadow, and just mix blak with iron breaker and try to keep it consistent. This is where she stands just now. However my brothers & sisters, kin of Russ I need your help. This Sicaran is to be an honoured relic for 40K, but I want to use her for 30K and will try to weave a worthy saga. First I need a name... Worthy of a Champion of Fenris. Secondly I need some design help. I keep gallery of ideas, and I want to make her ornate without going over the top, plus time is limited. Any ideas on how I should mark her up? This is my gallery Help me make her look specialand worthy of a place in the halls of Russ And this is her sister.... The majestic Night Fury. Who is almost completed and ready for her saga to be told Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298350-2014-solstice-advance/page/7/#findComment-3913202 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Hahaha I guess you are right RPR Smaller was better, so changed the knotwork over Anyhoo, I am plugging away at getting my Solstice Advance vow done... Did the wolf on the opposite side to yesterday, same design, but look nothing alike really, grrrr! Saving Grace is that you can't see both sides at the same time , May try incorporating some black in to the wolf to tie it in with this.... I decided to do the runic rims, like on my Raptor, but had to make them bigger... I think it looks okay, tried dark at the bottom getting lighter with the gold as it goes up... With or without the lascannon sponsons... I am considering either magnetising them or, using tem to make 2 Long FAngs with drumfed HB's :) Top knotwork matches both sides now.. Made a start on the turret, trying for an aged brass effect, but worried this will look like a gold mess!! Any tips on brass, and I do not have any brass paints with me :( Played with some heat discolouration just behind the muzzle brake.. for fun and to see how do-able it is, need to stipple some black on the end of the barrel too. This is to fit for 30 & 40K hence the nice grey... Any ideas on 30K wolves pack/ vehicle markings??

Dantay VI Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I cheated was resourceful :D I hate runes... Draw them out on paper, paint it then cut out and stick on or find a nice rune design, print, paint and glue on. if they look soft, go around he edges and tidy up with whatever background colour you choose to use. Either that or custom decals Darn, now I am giving away all my secrets!!!

Frater Cornelius Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I'd be too lazy to print them out and do all those shenanigans. I would actually draw them free-hand :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298350-2014-solstice-advance/page/7/#findComment-3916256 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I spent 2 nights trying to draw and paint the runes and just about gave up on them, but sometimes you just get lucky/ resourceful. I could draw/paint it okay on paper, and you can get stuff off the internet, outlines and such which you can print and the paint, which is what I did, plus on paper you can screw up as much as you like and not wreck the paint job, paint effects to try them out etc. After almost launching the Sicaran across the office in a manly fit of rage (no high pitched ranting I swear) and a lot of "expletive deleted's", it saved my butt, looked good and also covered up the horror show underneath... Pigging runes!! I guess the moral of the story, is you should always keep trying to push yourself to get better, but it's okay when things do not work out... Just keep practising and if that doesnt't work, adapt and overcome. I will say though, the wolf and knotwork were done by hand, so I am not a total fraudster hahaha... just takes practice Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298350-2014-solstice-advance/page/7/#findComment-3916327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
codyrstuart Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 So, slow progress since I returned from the holidays, but slow progress is better than no progress. Finished the paint on the Executioner, and have all but 3 grey hunters painted. Looking to finish the other guys tomorrow, and wash everything throughout the week. Does anyone happen to have tips for washing a rhino chassis vehicle? The last two times I've tried it, it came out very streaky. Also, has anyone tried out the GW Typhus Corrosion? I thought about using it for a little bit of dirtying on the Executioner, as I am afraid of trying weathering powder just yet. Anyway, photo dump engage: Executioner Bjorn (complete) Grey Hunters (finished one more after this photo) Group shot of my vow Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298350-2014-solstice-advance/page/7/#findComment-3916787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
