Finally got my Sicaran done (and beat Ghost of Iron to its long awaited appearance). I give you the XVIIIth Legion Sicaran, Glowing Ember.

Amazing work over the last few days guys - I've been watching, if not posting! I'll get my contemptor built as promised, then work up the full detailed post mortem for May. Its been a good showing, and we are certainly helping the ETL too.

 

Spu - start your stuff for June early if you like. If it in the ETL, this competition should not hold it up. I'll award the points for the Casual challenge in June, no questions asked.

 

Twisty - I love the Land Raider, and love to see another Salamander free handing some glyphs and logos. Keep it up fella!

EDIT - Also, thanks to OMG. He gave me some tips on painting the tracks. The effect I got is nowhere near your amazing work sir, but its better than I would have got without your help, and I'm pleased with it.

Managed to complete my vow, all three models of it.

 

Firstly my praevian.

The IIIrd legion doesn't use such easy routes as implants to directly control the battle automata. Instead the praevian uses a trio of vox relay servo skulls. For it takes finesse to verbally order around the battle machines of the mechanicum, In the heat of a battle

Next a moratit

This moratit uses rare pistols taken from the nobles of a non compliant world. These pistols use micro fission cartridges to propel depleted uranium shots, that can pierce the stingiest armour. Though they can occasionally misfire.

Finally the praetor

He has upgraded his previous mark III armour to a more resplendent style. He has also accesses the legions armoury and has taken a lucid blade to pair his paragon blade, and replaced his combi bolter nanyte pistol

Spu: Lovely collection of characters. Love the Moritat who kind of seems to have nicked most of the guns in his company... Hmm... Loota-in-Disguise?

Kor'Vesh: Love the Sicaran, glad you finally finished it! It do look suspiciously clean however... It is quite telling that the Salamanders did not lead the charge on Istvaan V ;)

nevindar - Salamanders go to war with a fresh coat of paint. Battle damage is for the lazy (and more skillful painters!). And I thank the Iron Hands for catching all the earliest bullets at Istvann, shame they couldn't have help out more later....

 

spu - patience and layering mate. I just freehand the shape in a dark red, and gradually work my way up to a pale yellow, using thinish paint and mixing tones as I go. I can be more specific if you'd like! Glad you like it though :) your moritat is a champ :D Excellent idea on the prevain servo skulls too!

I've always loved the green of your Sallies. Brighter than usual, which I prefer. Usually they're a duller green.

So much stuff and it all looks great. I'm just back from Orkney, hoping to complete my pledge for the month tomorrow, then tackle the Pyroclasts for my first ETL vow completion next week. June is being declared the Month of the Raven, while July shall be the Month of the Drake.

@Nevindar...that rhino is coming along great mate...like it alot...i think if i was doing a mechanised force i would be "borrowing " that design ;-)... "Nevindar pattern" has a ring to it.

 

@Kor'Vesh... Here's me thinking you have gone AWOL, and you bust back in with an awesome sicaran! Your a true showman lol

Well done on taking your time to produce a real showpiece :-)..loving it

Kor'Vesh: we all know that Vulkan and Corax decided to hold back to "leave some glory for the second wave legions"... Traitors ;) I do consider magnetizing Ferrus's head to be honest..

Mortis: Well, that name sure has a nice ring to it. I'll continue to call it "Pallas" myself since.. eh.. modesty or something ;)

Also I do have some WIP photos on this project.. Sadly not a comprehensive collection :p

I totally did not forget to post this here!

2015 05 29 00.33.38

I had other pictures but they came out crappier than usual so only one this time tongue.png

Just my Command Squad and 5 Templar Bros to go! Should have them done Saturday or whenever-before-June1st

*cough*TotesNotBecauseIProcrastinateOrAnything*cough*

Out of likes - but hypothetical likes for Mortis, slips and Nevidar.

 

I'm always watching Mortis, never fear. Thanks though mam, I'm pleased with it, and pleased with the response.

 

Nevidar - please magnetise the head :D

 

Slips - I knew you wouldn't forget us. You gonna keep your perfect record?

Ok, the leman is done and im racing against the clock to get mr batman finished on time due to the fact that im going to mirabel quebec near montreal (slips smile.png )for my cxbl paintball tournament and wont be back until monday. Im going to try to get him atleast basecoated, and see if i can finish him up at the hotel, although ill have no way to post pics from there. Lets see if I can jerryrig outta this one.

STATUS UPDATE BEFORE DEPARTURE: this is where im at, washes drying now. Im leaving just after i post this so wish me luck lol. I wish everyone else who still has to complete their pledges luck aswell!

Ahhhh.... Last day of school for the boys and trying to balance parental responsibilities with the last 2 days of the ETL and my 'wait til the last minuteness'... Honestly I'm just nervous to airbrush the raptor as I'm out of practice with it...

Is all good.

Kor- you sallies are great and green- love the clean color!!

Slips- awesome amount of yellow you've put out this month
