WarriorFish Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Keep up the good work Julius, I'm keen to see another Knight done soon! :D As for the weapons, I don't think there is a right or wrong way round?

Will do! ;) Ah okay, the instruction booklet and most of the pictures show the CC weapon on the left and ranged weapon on the right, but hey - variety is the spice of life (unless it's tech-heresy lol) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/306917-e-tenebrae-lux-iv-adeptus-mechanicus-strategium/page/21/#findComment-4118802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommodusXIII Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I think the only arm that technically matters is the Thunderstrike Gauntlet. Unless your Knight has a prehensile pinky finger, that is.

Vel'Cona Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 It's only heresy if you don't perform the Rites of Attachment and chant the Canticle of Adhesion while applying the sacred unguents (glue).

frostbite Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Done with Vow 4 in time for a game on Saturday: http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/u404/flammen_panzer/IMG_0302_zpseodzlhvl.jpg http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/u404/flammen_panzer/IMG_0300_zpstbd83ap7.jpg http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/u404/flammen_panzer/IMG_0297_zpsvrpqpdhr.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/306917-e-tenebrae-lux-iv-adeptus-mechanicus-strategium/page/21/#findComment-4119220 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebulon Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Finish line definitely coming closer for the "Knight" part of my vow. I am not sure what to do with the bit left white on the carapace at present. Maybe chevrons, but other suggestions are welcome... http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e187/JH1980/Mobile%20Uploads/image_7.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/306917-e-tenebrae-lux-iv-adeptus-mechanicus-strategium/page/21/#findComment-4119227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommodusXIII Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 My vow is coming along well. I'm finishing some minor details on the underside, and should be ready to flip the torso this weekend! Almost to the home stretch!

WarriorFish Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Great work frost, the muted tones work really well on them. I'm sure they'll do well for you in game :tu: I think chevrons would look cool on the top Julius, you're making excellent progress so don't want to get slowed down by indecision ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/306917-e-tenebrae-lux-iv-adeptus-mechanicus-strategium/page/21/#findComment-4119428 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebulon Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I think chevrons would look cool on the top Julius, you're making excellent progress so don't want to get slowed down by indecision ;) Thanks man. My thinking is just: 1) not sure chevrons would fit my theme 2) however, it is an AdMech aligned knight, so they are appropriate 3) yeah, but what else might look cool? I did have another thought, maybe two asymmetric stripes along that top part of the carapace and fill the rest in red? But would welcome fraternal suggestions, really. Delay won't be an issue as I can finish all the other bits in the next few days hopefully.

WarriorFish Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Chevrons depends on the colours I suppose, but the classic hazard colours will suit an AdMech knight as GW uses it often. Your knight is red and white which won't clash, it's mostly an issue of how much you do so it doesn't become too overpowering. I think a couple of stripes would look good if you didn't want to risk the bold chevrons. You could also do black on white stripes, but a couple of white stripes would look good.

WarriorFish Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Don't worry about flames, you can always return to the model later for an upgrade once your appendages are better at painting them ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/306917-e-tenebrae-lux-iv-adeptus-mechanicus-strategium/page/21/#findComment-4119905 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 Great activity in the Forges of Mars I see! Well done everybody - but keep it up though... Time is running out and your rivals are as committed as you to see this through! The first to put the brush down will lose! :D UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

CommodusXIII Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 But it's better to put the brush down early, than to still be holding it when ETL closes.

WarriorFish Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 The hero we needed... and deserved Gotham should wait more if this is what we get! Fantastically speedy work, the weathering with the primer paint showing through is really nice and the red it excellent. The close ups are really nice for showing off all the detail you did :) The ETL has been most productive for you, well done on doing your part pompey when the time comes you can wear your badge with pride I look forward to seeing what you do next, perhaps some larger vehicles?

Zebulon Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 More update action. Thanks for your thoughts guys, but in the end I found myself thinking back to the first images that drew me to the hobby, many many years ago... And so I ended up doing this: http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e187/JH1980/Mobile%20Uploads/image_8.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e187/JH1980/Mobile%20Uploads/image_9.jpg Also, who can tell me what this binary word from the back of the banner means?! :) http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e187/JH1980/Mobile%20Uploads/image_10.jpg Clue: this is all there is...

Mr Bill Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I fail. No need to issue the badge of shame, as I will not be posting again. GW slapped us all in the face with AoS and I cannot bring myself to touch any GW product. My painting time and gaming dollars are all going to privateer press now.
