spu00sed Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Depth charge, amazing cataphractii, nice and brutal looking, how did you get a smooth white on the shoulders guards? I got really frustrated painting white tabbards. Rattray, nice termie. I like the rusty, blood stained cleaver. Used a break in the clouds to get some good photos using natural light.

depthcharge12 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 ... Did you just call me Rattray? 0_oCan I blame auto correct? Sounds like a pretty good garage metal band. I'd roll with it :P As for the white, I did two thinned layers of ceramite white. It's a maddening science to get the white just right. Too thin and it flows into parts you don't want. Too thick and it looks chalky. My advice is as follows: 1.) Load pallet with two parts ceramite white 2.) soak brush in water and mix the water and white into a nice consistency 3.) Sacrifice 2 goats or firstborn child for best results 4.) rinse brush, repeat Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305419-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-april/page/12/#findComment-4020159 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DimDim Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 This isnt related to my pledge, but I got a little excited and bought some bits to make a mock up for my templar brethren for when my package arrives and want peoples opinions, and here he is: Thoughts? I thought the templar being the elite of the legion would be equipped with the newest most advanced Armour, so I gave him MK4 instead of MK3. Also when he gets based he'll be standing on the corpse of a traitor, and he will get a sculpted tabbard.

Daemon2027 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 With that pose, it will look a bit more natural if you can turn the left leg out a little bit. When we stand we tend not to have are feet pointing forwards. Otherwise he looks good.

lionofjudah Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Howdy all... I've ben at a conference in the Catskill mountains of NY for he last few days. No wifi has been a gift:)... I didn't bring anything to work on as this trip has been a retreat for me and not a work trip so no time for hobby fun:) Now I'm in NYC for the first time and am absolutely overwhelmed by the concrete jungle. Having visions of Titans rolling through midtown and all of the apocalyptic battles of the end times in hive cities playing out in technicolor in front of me. I'll be back home LATE Tuesday and am hoping for that wonderful brown box from overseas to be waiting for me-and then I have 2 days to finish tidying up my BA and catching up on the rest of life:) Dim- I concur on the left foot turn out and wow I'm excited about seeing your brethren rockin it out. Palak- I feel you on the assembly line detail painting PITA ;)- looking fantastic man! Raktra- dang your Hands are looking good! Your IRon father is great. Poom- whoa... Your vorax are changing my opinion of the model quickly. Also- would love your Martian red recipe!!:) Spu00sed- the EC are gorgeous and vibrant. Love the purples man!

Iron Hands Fanatic Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 This isnt related to my pledge, but I got a little excited and bought some bits to make a mock up for my templar brethren for when my package arrives and want peoples opinions, and here he is: Thoughts?

Also when he gets based he'll be standing on the corpse of a traitor, and he will get a sculpted tabbard. DimDim I'm still of the mind that FW should have made the Templars Mk IV & the Phalanx Warders Mk III. The Mk IV's mobility just seems to suit close-combat fighting much better in my eyes, and I'll always associate the Mk IV pieces on the Black Templars upgrade sprue with the whole Templar archetype. TLDR: your style of Templars gets my vote Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305419-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-april/page/12/#findComment-4021862 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gizur Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 So much great work here. I have struggeld very hard with this months pledge, but finaly i got it. Im so demotivated to paint at the moment that i will take a brake and take time for getting new insirations for my Army, but for now enjoy this: http://i725.photobucket.com/albums/ww257/tomleugner/DSCN0766_zpsjbwq3rdx.jpg?t=1430122789 http://i725.photobucket.com/albums/ww257/tomleugner/DSCN0752_zpsxl3z2p48.jpg?t=1430123127 http://i725.photobucket.com/albums/ww257/tomleugner/DSCN0754_zpsfyen9ngo.jpg?t=1430123208 http://i725.photobucket.com/albums/ww257/tomleugner/DSCN0755_zpsmzck9mzp.jpg?t=1430123288 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305419-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-april/page/12/#findComment-4022547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor'Vesh Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 sup00sed - lovely work mate. Why not post your whole delegation shot in the Hall of victors thread - all army shots are welcome! Raktra (aka Ratray :D) - Excellent gorgons fella, your whole vow is looking excellent. What are you on about though? MKII armour ALWAYS looks good! Poom - So nice :) some of the first Vorax I've seen painted, and they are looking fantastic. I hope you can finish up! DimDim - I think the templar is great. I agree that the MKIV legs are more dynamic too, and I think they work well on these guys. Look forward to seeing a whole squad. Dantioch - excellent work as ever. The upgrade helmets look great, but I always quite liked them. Have you got any torsos? I was underwhelmed with them, but I'd be intriqued to see if you could change my opinion! 4th Horseman - Great progress. Do you think you'll get all 10 done in time? Would be a sudden and impressive showing from the blood angels this month if you do! Gizur - Your work is always stunning, but I really am blown away by that bloodthirster. It'll be a shame to lose your work for a month or two sir, but understandeable! Could I persuade you to pledge just one model for the Heresy forum ETL effort in May? Then if you regain your painting Mojo before the three month challenge is over you would be allowed to add som bigger pledges and we can all benefit from your speed and quality! Go on Gizur - your brothers might need you! Anyway - believe it or not I've done some work and finished my next three marines! So pledge complete, and a tiny bit more honour to Vulkan! I hope you like... http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad231/KorVesh/sallie4_zps6udlvo9c.jpg http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad231/KorVesh/sallie4_front_zpskxvyv4bp.jpg http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad231/KorVesh/sallie5_zps9ovbfs9q.jpg http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad231/KorVesh/punk%20paint_zpsztlarhqh.jpg I'm really enjoying the look of mixed armour marks, and the first of the Salamanders torsos was great to paint. The free hand nocturnean glyphs, flames, numerals and unit marks based on the stuff in massacre are all great fun to paint too. Here is a shot of my whole month's work: http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad231/KorVesh/april%20pledge_zpsgvl5cq39.jpg Next up, the ETL, and my sicaran...

StruManChu Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 So much goodness in April. Kor'Vesh - Excellent Sallies. I really like your brighter green, and the flames look great too. poom and gizur - You guys never disappoint. Great stuff as ever... Do they teach precision painting in German schools? I'm almost done, and it's not even the last possible moment! My Command Squad and Polux are complete. I've still got to stick a couple of decals on my Breachers and then they're done too. Pics below!
