Castiel 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. Cheers, -OMG I wouldn't be too hasty. The model's nice, but the kit is a real to build. Worse even than the Spartan. If you like it go for it but just be aware that it's gonna take a lot of blood, sweat and tears to finish. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304113-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-march/page/4/#findComment-3969135 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_out Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Couple progress shots for Sevatar and his base. My first attempt at hazard striping so input is most welcome!

OwlandMoonGuy Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I wouldn't be too hasty. The model's nice, but the kit is a real to build. Worse even than the Spartan. If you like it go for it but just be aware that it's gonna take a lot of blood, sweat and tears to finish. Yeah. All the more blood, sweat & tears to add to the quota filled to-date. Worse than the Spartan? Now that's saying something.

Raktra Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Hmm, the Spartan's easier than the aircraft? That's a lot of my fears to rest.

Kor'Vesh Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 Excited to see what you do with those two beasties Gizur. Well last night was nice, but not as successful as I hoped - I spent about 2 hours scrubbing resin with fairy liquid and a tooth brush. Still I've got ten of my guys built and I'm quite pleased with a few of my poses. The Salamander upgrade sets are fantastic too, the torsos and mkIV helms in particular are beauties. I'll sort some pictures out soon I guess. Gonna build some more now :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304113-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-march/page/4/#findComment-3969468 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanguinius Chosen Wing Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Bit late but I'm going to aim to get five Gorgon's done, a Contemptor and a tactical squad.

StruManChu Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 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. Cheers, -OMG I wouldn't be too hasty. The model's nice, but the kit is a real to build. Worse even than the Spartan. If you like it go for it but just be aware that it's gonna take a lot of blood, sweat and tears to finish. Really? I had a heap more trouble with my Spartan than I have so far on the Fire Raptor... Admittedly my Spartan is/was two and a half years old before I built it, and even then I had to send off for replacement parts. Which is probably because it would have been close to one of the first out of the mould... Out of interest, when did you get yours? Maybe we can compare notes when I MOVE TO EDINBURGH at the end of May...

I don't actually have the Fire Raptor myself, but I know a guy who built them both and from speaking to him he said it was the worst kit he'd ever built.

Leoric Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I, Leoric, the Iron Son, pledge to paint another five Iron Hands Tactical Marines this month. I didn't know what happened last month, as I was unable to attach any image to my posts. Hopefully there won't be a problem anymore. March will be again tricky, as I finally got a job - it is a shame that only for two months, but who knows, maybe that will be my big breakthrough. The good part is, that it will give me a chance to make a new order in April-May from ForgeWorld.

lionofjudah Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I had a few hours of espresso filled snow day's eve to build up 6 of the 10 doods for my pledge.. Then bleary eyed recognition that I was dawdling with glued together fingers at midnight let me know it was time for the emperors peace;) Supposed to be 60 next week and I have black, grey and white primers for this batch of doods Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304113-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-march/page/4/#findComment-3970409 Share on other sites More sharing options...
