Ascanius Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I've recently started painting again after an earlier burst of enthusiasm a few months back, when I discovered an untouched Assault on Black Reach boxed set I'd bought back when it was current. I painted up the Space Marines as Sons of Medusa and made a fair start on the orks before running out of steam. The Adeptus Mechanicus as its own army revitalised my interest, not least because they make sense with the Sons of Medusa if I ever decide to try and find some games to play. For now, though, I'm just trying to improve my painting - which, at this stage, largely means "get the right colours in the right places". I took these photos outside in the morning sun, so forgive me if they're a little washed out - especially on the plasma and arc weapons. Here's the showcase: http://i.imgur.com/baku3Hf.png Rangers http://i.imgur.com/3S7jABK.png Ranger Alpha with arc pistol and taser goad (and I just now realised I didn't colour his goad, so that's something to fix!) http://i.imgur.com/RddDXnQ.png Ranger with plasma caliver http://i.imgur.com/phlOp06.png http://i.imgur.com/075iODc.png http://i.imgur.com/UpEyan2.png Rangers with galvanic rifles http://i.imgur.com/7manYGD.png Vanguard http://i.imgur.com/LrFRRfo.png Vanguard with transuranic arquebus (not sure it's a good choice if I do end up gaming!) http://i.imgur.com/roZdMS8.png Vanguard with arc rifle http://i.imgur.com/ehkzwdr.png http://i.imgur.com/oZwE41L.png http://i.imgur.com/WaeY15r.png Vanguard with radium carbines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 if you do end up gaming you may find out that the transuranic arquebus would be better off on the rangers and the plasma Caliver on the Vanguard... ... good stuff though! Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascanius Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 Yeah, I quite literally put them together as my whims took me. Same goes for the pistol and goad on the Ranger Alpha - probably not amazing choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, rule of cool on the ranger Alpha ,although that kit out does help him defend the unit from a vehicle/dread tie up . and to quote Shaun of the dead in regards to the Ranger Alpha's crotch "you've got red on you"...it needs leadbelcher !

Ascanius Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 It's a classic case of spotting it when I uploaded the pictures - already been fixed. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
