Grazcruzk Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 Maybe the recessed panels on the sides? Always a great one to do. That's where I put my red! That was the first thing I considered and it's still a strong possibility. I got to thinking I wanted to do only raised areas in red since it matches the power armour scheme more closely, but that might be overthinking it.

Grazcruzk Posted October 22, 2016 Author Share Posted October 22, 2016 I did a thing! More red and started some gold bits. Still needs more white though.

Jønke Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I really like the turret. Kinda old school with the plas on both sides :) Looks great! Keep it up!

Grazcruzk Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 I've got the razorback mostly done so I got a combat squad and mephy together with it for a few pictures. I've got enough clean armour now, I think it's time for some weathering. ++Heresy++ I've been experimenting with agrellan earth straight onto flat areas of armour after a basecoat, then painting the red over the top after it dries and cracks to get a molting effect. I haven't been able to get a good picture yet but I'll get there.

Grazcruzk Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 Thank you for the compliment! I'm looking forward to getting some more armour (dreads) done up. I've been mostly away for a while, but I do have a few things today. I had a go at weathering again and did my libby contemptor, razorback, and tactical combat squad. I've also got a kitbashed Corbs wip and a fragioso built off of a venerable chassis. corbs fragioso hodge-podge frag cannon I don't think these last few pictures turnned out so great I almost forgot about delves into textured paint! Here is this gross guy who seems to have lost his arms in all the fuss of looking for more blood. The cracks on the left side of the chest plate and on the right leg are where I used agrellan earth. After it set I brushed nulin oil gloss into the cracks to try for an extra ichory underlayer, but it doesn't really come through in the picture. Thanks for looking, c&c always welcome. For Sanguinius!

CaptainHelion Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Ooooh. I've been wondering how the agrellan earth goes for armour chipping and cracks.

Damon Nightman Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 So much awesomeness! I can't get over how much I like your scheme, especially with how well you execute it.

Grazcruzk Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 CaptainHelion- Thanks! I'd never used it even for bases before so it is still pretty new. Seems like you have to bubble it on so flat surfaces get a lot rounder. I think the next thing I'll try will be to use it kind of like liquid greenstuff and fill in a large gouge, see if it has a more flush texture. Brother Lemartes- I'm glad you like it! I'm wanting to get into it a little heavier, but alas life complications. My own pile of shame grows, lol.

Charlo Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Love the Corbs! Obviously him while being visually distinct and interesting. Top work! Fragioso is a solid conversion too - what is that bit you are using as the barrel tip? It's on the edge of my brain and I'm losing it!

Grazcruzk Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 Charlo- Thanks, I was hoping it would be a solid tribute to the original corbs model. I love how well the mk viii torsos looks on the mk iv legs in general. The frag cannon barrel and ammo box are from a dreadknight psycannon.

Grazcruzk Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 Doooo iiit! Did a little bit of white on the fragioso and somewhere along the line I decided he needs to have an axe for even more of a sanguinary guard feel. I can't be 100% sure it will stick around but I'm liking it so far. The icing on the cake would be a magna grapple that is somehow reminiscent of a jump pack.

Grazcruzk Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hey guys, I've started getting some terminators and shotgun marines together for part of a red and white kill team. I have a lot of grey knight arms and a few hands I want to incorporate to give the termies a little bit more life. Here are a few shots of what I've got going: LutherMax and Damon Nightman 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312820-grazs-bas-74-gravis-captain-and-more/page/6/#findComment-4596155 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazcruzk Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 Good afternoon everyone, I've got a bit of an update. The Baal Pred is coming along nicely, my fragioso is getting there, and so are the tactical termies.

Grazcruzk Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 Thanks, Charlo! I've got a few pictures today. One of the assault squad I'm making based off the tacticals from BA Get Started box and a few offerings I've been prepping for the IC kitbash event: These old chaps. Almost have all the paint off now.

Grazcruzk Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) I had planned on it! I was kicking myself earlier because I thought I saw something about "unassembled" being in the rules. parts: Left arms and legs are from BaC tacticals Head and shoulder pads are from the vanguard vet box Torso front, left hand, and backpack are from the BA tactical box (the iron halo is old, not sure where it came from) Torso back/cape is a deathwatch blackshield bit and the combi is made from the stalker boltgun arm and combimelta bit from the same kit. The half mask was salvaged from a skull I mucked up a while back and the digital weapons are trimmed down fingers from an open bolter hand. Edit: May be worth mentioning that the torso bits didnt fit exactly. A little filing on the front collar helped but I what took me a minute to realize was the dimples on the front piece are a little bigger than the divots on the back. The other thing was the cape and tabard making it hard to find legs that fit. I ended up bending the cape outward a tiny bit and it fit no problem.

Grazcruzk Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 Hey everyone! I've been toiling over my bitz box a bunch lately for the kitbashing but I've been making a little bit of progress elsewhere, too. The ten man assault squad mostly assembled and started getting some white, while I'm almost certain that my dakka baal has gotten faster. Beakies go! and here is the pred. They didn't come out quite as good as I hoped, I plan on touching them up some more later. I think I could widen both sides just a tad down the entire length and it would even up pretty well. Anyone have any thoughts? Last is my wip DC Tycho for the GBBO. Thanks for looking, cheers!
