Ciler Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'm thinking I could paint both the outside of the cockpit and the gun turret red, this way the inside wouldn't clash as much, but I really do not like the idea of having to paint that much flat red (as getting a smooth finish will be quite hard).

Ciler Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Working some colours into the stormraven. http://reho.st/self/679a8c59e4038443a90831a8bc1069907dff7694.jpg It is still in dire need of highlights, but it's starting to look decent. I'm debating re-nuln-oiling the vents and clasps on the wings, they look too shiny i think.

Firepower Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I agree the turbines could use another wash. Â I also think the white could use some black decorations to break it up a bit. Â A cross here, some scripture there, etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/301583-the-thracian-crusade-gather-the-brethren/page/6/#findComment-4319848 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciler Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Actually the back turbine hasn't had a wash yet, I use it as a reference. Â Thanks for the idea of scriptures also, I had planned crosses there but they would be large transfers and/or templated spays, so it's good to have an alternative.

Ciler Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 And a side note because the coming month's painting contest at my GW is "flyers" and I clearly won't have finished the raven. http://reho.st/self/d3f1ed6df206fb363d51fd5f00643d85858944fd.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/301583-the-thracian-crusade-gather-the-brethren/page/6/#findComment-4319887 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciler Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 So, one of the lads at my local shop is quite good with finicky conversions and thin highlights (steady hands I guess) and he put this guy together for me : http://reho.st/self/69e9e39c49666fa8297a35d13a0a05aef3d57445.jpg  What do ye think ?

Firepower Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Is that sword purple? Â :tu: Â Needs some heraldry on the shoulder, though, even just a simple cross. Â And basing, of course.

Ciler Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Oh yeah there's definitely some more work before it can be deemed completed. The loincloth is almost plain white so it'll need a bit more contrast imo, and of course a cross on the pad is a requirement. Â And yes, the sword is purple in the center with black bevels (that are highlighted grey).

Marshal Mattias Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 That's a smart conversion; I'll have to remember that for the future.

Ciler Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 I got the model home eventually so here are a few more shots, especially of the sword for Firepower.  http://reho.st/self/a608a2daffca38902feb2eb800309f6e65b5fed6.jpghttp://reho.st/self/4bbab24edc7347addb286bdc98958816f7a5db33.jpghttp://reho.st/self/8c87a397cf6d9c147a9a8a703663ee1a34dee50d.jpghttp://reho.st/self/53ce1861be45e950b6ff663ff4ff2c55d57f4334.jpg  I'm really impressed by my mate's work, and I think that besides a bit more shading on the loincloth (it(s just too white atm) and the basing, there's really nothing to change.

Firepower Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Neat, very subtle work on the sword. Â Still nothing on the shoulder, though...

Brother Talon Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Dear Emperor... those eyes are haunting.. just think.. if that was a red variant or white... There's something dark to this champion.

Ciler Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Most of the highlights and washes are now complete. I need to figure out what decals/patterns I'll put on the wings though. http://reho.st/self/2a08c3ca3af3ccfc8d5897a56bf4388ebcfb470e.jpg  Although it doesn't show on the pic, the corax white of the wings can actually be highlighted with ceramite/white scar white.

Ciler Posted August 20, 2016 Author Share Posted August 20, 2016 After a painfully busy summer (I didn't even get to enter the ETL) I'm back with a new project.

Ciler Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Some WIP shots : http://reho.st/self/a9b1dc45e69dfbf9c275d690f0c31e4e93341497.jpg http://reho.st/self/72db86b922939e87a5876993b2633638f4dc6646.jpg  The sword will be blue, as per my other power weapons. There's a trim on the bottom part of the tabard which i'm thinking of doing red or gold, not sure yet. Any comments, opinions, advice ?

Brother Christopher Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Good progress on the terminator, it's turning out great. I'd recommend that you paint the trim red, it should add some nice colour/contrast to the tabard.

Lippy Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Nice, loving seeing the ZEAL in his eyes. He looks like he means business.  I second the splash of colour on the tabard.

Ciler Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 So, I've kept busy behind closed doors.

NoPityNoRemorseNoFear Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Looks great, which spray paint did you use to apply the white onto your vehicles?
