The Pounder Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Finally managed another Suzerain, 2 more and their Landraider (GW one I'm afraid) to go. Been thinking about some fluff for my chapter, all I have so far is a name "The Lions of Hera" lead by Praetor Augustus Solon. Got a lot of work to do on the story, I'd better read up some more for inspiration. Here's the latest pics: http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00444_zpszjfehiw6.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00445_zpsmnfxpm4d.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00446_zpsy5cjo4gb.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00447_zpsmn1euq9i.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishagu Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 These guys are looking so damn good! One of the best units to accompany a Primarch too, imo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snakes of Ithaka Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 loving the Suzerain, i wasn't overly sure when i looked at them on the FW website but seeing yours painted up, has convinced me to get some for my ultras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 Cheers lads, I'm still not 100% happy with them but I'm getting there! Got 2 more to paint and a Landraider to transport them and Guilliman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 Managed a bit of time for some painting, still working on my Suzerain,got 1 left then it's time for something faster....Here's the latest effort:http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00482_zpsbqpq1gdm.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00481_zpsoiege8hs.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00480_zpsa6z1uoea.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memento Of Prospero Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Suzerains really got that breathtaking wow factor. Good job on breaking the gold a bit with the off colour, works really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 Thanks Wolf_Pack! They're fantastic to work with, the detail is amazing. I'll post a pic of the whole squad once the last one is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 And they're all done! Really pleased with them, they are painted to a good table top standard and will look great with Guilliman. I think loading them up in a Landraider and heading for where the fighting is fiercest! Here's the shield wall: http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00485_zps9s3f2eyn.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00486_zpsgqkzmjmu.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00487_zps90nyn7wm.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00488_zpsgsmdz3u2.jpg Next up will be a Scimitar Jet Bike Sergeant, I have a need for some speed in the force! Question is what should I arm him with? Is it worth giving him a Power fist and the squad Melta bombs and a Multi-Melta? I'm lacking antitank options.

Ishagu Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I'd argue they are possibly the best looking, and best in terms of rules, of all the Legion unique cc units aside from maybe the Gal Vorbak... Lovely paint job, your gold highlights are similar to the way I do mine :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted September 28, 2015 Author Share Posted September 28, 2015 Thanks guys, they really are fantastic sculpts. Darren, you should! They're great in terms of look and game play. Ishago, great minds think a like! I've been busy on my Ultramarines this month, I managed my pledge on the 30k painting thread and got this guy done too! http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00493_zpsnvimchrg.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00492_zpsfljnfqc6.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00491_zpsphqiy5au.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00490_zpspn1r7jm6.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00489_zpsfms6sbrf.jpg I really enjoyed painting this chap, I'm going to add another 2 at least!

Doctor Perils Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 He's great ! Have you considered slanting the jetbike slightly ? I have to admit he makes me think he's cruising around with his head in the clouds posed like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pounder Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 Thanks for the replies gents. It's that time of year when my hobby goes quiet (3 kids' birthdays and Christmas prep will do that!) Thankfully I still have a tactical marine and (GW) Landraider. I'll post pics once they're done.

The Pounder Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 I've had time to finish the Landraider.I used a lot of the decals from the Forge World Ultramarines sheet.These are easy to use and for someone like me that sucks at free hand I highly recommend them.Here's the pics: http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00585_zpsxlw70uya.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00584_zpszglnzz8k.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00583_zpslxxfanw8.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00582_zpshv5gdmy0.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00581_zps1rkohhby.jpg http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah259/thepounder/DSC00580_zps20qxx6ph.jpg Next up is the pile of untouched resin that will be my Sicaran.I should hopefully get it glued together tonight. After that I have bitz to make an Apothecary and a Banner Bearer. I've heard good things about the Sicaran kit, here's hoping it goes together well.

Ishagu Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Wow, I love that Orange/gold stripe on the Landraider! You've done a fantastic job on the kit. You'll have a great time painting the Sicaran, and it's very easy to assemble. Take a look at mine over on the Ultramarine section in Codex: Space Marines. I showcase it alongside some Vindicator Destroyers :-) A few have pointed out that my kits would benefit from more colour variation, and I'm looking at how you've done yours and I really like what I see!

Thanks man! I took a look at your Sicaran etc, I think they look great. Maybe adding a white or gold panel or 2 will help break up the blue? Even if you don't they're still well done. Looks sweet! Very regal Thanks very much, I was trying to make it look like it could be worthy of transporting the big man and his retinue! Plastic!?! This... is... HERESY! Lol! My only regret is that I have too few pennies to sacrifice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
