Thanks for the comments guys laugh.png Here is some slight progress on my ETL vow, still a lot to get done on them but this is the first of five.

And a terrible quality photo attempting to show the scorching I done on the armour

Iron Warriors are among the top 3 of my favourite legions, glad to see somebody post some nice work on them! Also, you don't mind me using some of those ideas for inspiration, do you? msn-wink.gif

Thanks, go ahead man biggrin.png

I'm looking forward to your take on the Destroyer units.  I've not really seen to many around :(  Always though of converting up a Chaos era unit of Destroyer for my own Iron Warriors, this may been push for me to get the unit done.

Thanks a lot guys, your comments are much appreciated. I did say a while back that I'm working on a Praevian so I tacked one together to show the direction I'm going in with him. I'm hoping to paint him during the ETL, any suggestions are welcome biggrin.png

He looks fantastic, is the servo skull his cortex designator? If not then maybe throw a scope on the side of the bolt pistol to represent the wargear. Just an idea but he looks great as is.

 

Also don't think I mentioned this one yet, but your destroyer is outstanding. When I was in the Army I had an NCO who had a saying he used often, "I'ma show ya'll what right looks like!" and I feel you have done this with the weathering on that destroyer.

Thanks everybody, I've ran out of likes already today but I appreciate everyone's comments. I'm glad the Praevian is liked he'll definitely be part of my next ETL vow biggrin.png Made some more progress on my Destroyers should get them finished in the next few days:

Thanks man, I didn't even think about the scope but I'll add one once I'm ready to assemble him, thanks for the suggestion tongue.png

Just one suggestion. ....get that bugger painted! He looks awesome

Cheers mortis, just saw your MKIV dread over on the casual challenge and you may have convinced me to just order one to add to my force, hope you don't mind biggrin.png

Awesome stuff! I'm curious as to how you fit the helmet into the terminator praetor body smile.png did you have to cut it down?

Thanks dude, yeah it took a bit of cutting to make it fit, I've tried to make sure the damage isn't noticeable from the front but when I remove the head it looks as though he's took a bolt round or two to the head hahalaugh.png

Oh, is that Robert Baratheon in your display pic, if so a Dark Angel force with Baratheon iconography would look pretty awesome....*hint hint

Yeah buddy that's Baratheon in his prime when he was slugging around his warhammer to kick some Targaryean butt ;) if you look up the battle of the Trident there's some sexy art of it.

 

I was originally going to do the yellow/orange/black of the Legio Fureans for my knights and now that stag looks awesome...either that or the kraken from House Greyjoy :D

 

But I'd love to incorporate the stag antlers on a MkIII helmet :drool:

 

But enough about me....

Thanks guys, two just about done they still need a bit of tidying up, getting there though

That sounds awesome man! A Targaryen themed Emperors Children Champion or a Greyjoy themed Night Lord.... Damn there is so much cool stuff you could carry over biggrin.png

destroyers are looking boss and praevian scorpio is looking awesome and has a great fluid movement to the tail almost like its a separate entitywub.png

Thanks dude biggrin.png A separate entity? Its almost as though they have begun tinkering with powers they shouldn't have after the excursion into the Eye of Terror with the Emperors Children...... msn-wink.gif

Destroyers are looking the business mate...and good to see some work on that pair o legs in the background :-)

 

Deffo get a mkiv dread...im going dread heavy for my grand company...and nostalgia won with the purchase of the dreads lol

 

Great work as usual ;-)

Destroyers are done and Tempest is pre-ordered biggrin.png

House Bolton might fit Night Lords better tongue.png skinning folk and all that!

Your Destroyers look awesome and make me look at mine and sulk lol, how have you done the black?

Thanks Reyner, Boltons skinning people? That's just rumours and speculation......msn-wink.gif

For the black I start with a Chaos Black undercoat. I start the weathering by sponging on Runefang Steel washed by Agrax Earthshade, I then sponge some Hashut Copper washed with patches of Druchii Violet. Then some Typhus Corrsion drybrushed with Bestial Brown biggrin.png
