ROBOcaster Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 WIP Contemptor http://i.imgur.com/IEeJ1A2h.jpg @chaplain mortis amazing work, I really enjoy your weathering, it really does look like its been in the field for a few years. Also Im color blind so if you could tell me what that liquid under him is I would appreciate it. Is it mud or blood?

Kor'Vesh Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 Excellent progress already guys. I can't believe Fire Golem has painted stuff already! I've just posted a (brief) post-mortem for February (at last), and will now spend ALL EVENING making toy soldiers. Yes, my wife is away...

ROBOcaster Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Yes, my wife is away... Sounds like a party! Things are gonna get ka-ra-ra-razy! When the wife is out I like to enjoy a season Sam Adams or two, I find too many can cause for terrible builds and painting though. I should start a PSA "Don't drink and hobby" My immortals look terrible like Bolters hovering over hands bad, thank god for green stuff.

DimDim Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 "Pledge" done I learned quite a bit, and have decided I dont need my airbrush to paint yellow! Expect more in the future. Also deciding to not allow Raktra to out do me in glory, I will attempt to actually do a real pledge and am going to do a predator sans side sponsons. I may pledge more tacticals, but only time will tell if that passes.

MindOfMetal Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Ok, haven't finished the two Castellax yet; but I'm going to add a 7 man Auxilia Tactical Command Section, 3 Thallax, an 8 man tactical support squad, 8 normal terminators, a terminator siege breaker, a single veteran with a heavy bolter and a rhino to my pledge. This is basically everything I have undercoated pledged to this now. Hopefully means that for my 100th post I can show lots of nice, impressive pictures. Edit: forgot that I had 3 seekers with combi plasmas to pledge too.

Twisty Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Good work all around guys keep it up! *one a thread is enough..* I´m sitting in a pretty dark room and I think I just experienced something in between a epileptic seizure and a lsd trip In other news: now have my twenty man squad done, only 14 of those are a part of my pledge but what the heck, they´ll be painted together anyway. I´ll take a pic tomorrow when you can actually see them Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304113-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-march/page/3/#findComment-3968636 Share on other sites More sharing options...
StruManChu Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 DimDim - You're doing the Fists proud mate! Consider this a polite but firm demand for more! AO108 - That's a hell of a gun on that Vindi... Welcome to the fold brother, and congrats on your first completed vow! Danitoch - Nice to see you in our neck of the woods... I love what you're doing in your thread, and look forward to what you produce over the course of the month! chaplain mortis - That Contemptor is stunning. You've managed to make it look decades old without losing any of the detail. Absolutely fantastic work. To the Clans of the Iron Tenth (OMG, ROBO, Raktra, MoM, Nevindar, Huw, etc...) - Great start boys, and only five days in to March... We'll have the whole legion done at this rate... ----------------------------------- Quick update from me... Our houseguests haven't arrived yet, so I've made some progress on my Fire Raptor. I thought it was going to be much more of an ordeal to build based on previous experiences with other FW kits, but it's actually gone together pretty smoothly so far. Don't get me wrong, there's been plenty of swearing and a more than a little hairdryer use to reshape a few bits, but I think from this point forwards the hard work is behind me... It's an absolutely gorgeous kit, and when you consider how few Storm Raven parts get used, I found myself having more and more respect for the guys at FW who put this together. It's also ENORMOUS. Much bigger than I thought it was going to be, anyway. I've got a busy few evenings and I'm out all weekend, so I may disappear again for a few days, but given how quickly I've got to this point, I may be able to get it painted this month after all. Any of you clever chaps got any good ideas about how I can bling it up a bit and make it a bit more Iron Hands-ey?

OwlandMoonGuy Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Thanks for the comments on the Fire Raptor. I was thinking that this would be my next purchase. You're certainly helping make that decision easy. I was considering getting IH LR doors, cutting out the IH icons and sanding them down so they fit more flush with the hull. Other than that I'm hoping to hear (and thereby steal) some other ideas. Thanks for asking.

StruManChu Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I was going to do something similar, but kind of pseudo-measuring the LR Doors I used on my Spartan last month against the Fire Raptor Hull, they looked a little big? So maybe Rhino doors would be better. Which is annoying, because I've just had an order come in from FW... Oh well! I've got the icon set as well so Sorrgol Clan's spanner will make an appearance at some point, but beyond that and a shiny paint job I'm just not sure.

Daemon2027 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Excellent I'm thinking of getting a Fire Raptor eventually, glad to know its a good kit. Heard a few horror stories.
