A Tale of 18 Hobbyists

Recommended Posts

Here's where I'm at currently. More dangly dead bits to add, lions need their paws back. Working on a nice bit of fluff to go with this inspired by the commander and it's name (cookies and an Internet to anyone who notices ;) )

@ Rashbold: sounds great so far, not sure if you can use the marsian ironearth as "real" paint though - maybe you can find the same colour @ vallejo? 

 

also, i would go with

 

 

 

or perhaps they simply were part of a lost expedition that has shed their outward signs of allegiance to Mars.

that reminds me at the X of mars books :P 

 

@Helterskelter:

R: I still have time to look around, maybe even play with a few mixes.

So guys good stuff being churned out and im proud of everything coming through.

 

Now I'm up in the finders Rangers at work and ive just had a worker burn the skin off his hand by accidently putting his unloved hand into liquid tar which is at around 600°c and ive just rushed him to the closest hospital (I'm writing this in the waiting room) so if im not active it's because I'm about to have a :cuss Storm of safety :cuss paperwork

More work on the loincloths and some symbols:

"Lost Eye of Magnus"

-> This symbol was oddly found among communication specialists within the XVth legion. Modern hieroglyphists agree that the symbology was a nod toward the XVths Primarch, who communicated with a powerful presence, and traded his eye. However, these professionals cannot agree whether this meant the Emperor himself or yet another darker source...

Page 5 is shaping up to looking pretty nice (though poor guy who stuck his hand in hot tar) it's all lions & assault squads & loincloths of my! Though apologies I'm already starting on the slightly irreverent nicknames and permutations there of :D

 

I'm liking the use of jewelry chain on the tank, i can only imagine how much more grisely it's gonna be with more "dead bits" I have but one question for the esteemed Helter S. Sir why is there an eye just sticking out of your work surface, examining, staring, boring holes on my soul? Have you trapped some sort of warp fiend to use as a hobby table?

 

Mr. The Psycho Tennant I like The Red Marshall, he looks like a proper veteran, his armor looks like it's had a long and violent history and the assault squad looks super dynamic!

 

I also have to say I like the greenstuff work that you've done DC, those loin cloths look awesome. Interestingly it seems I'm gonna need to start taking pictures of my models with adult beverages in the background as well since it seems to be a thing so far ;)

I thought that's how all the cool kids made hobby tables? A ritual here, soulbinding there and boom. One evil hobby table. I have all its tentacles preserved in a jar. And it's B+c law to have the soon to be known as Belfie (beverage selfie) in your WIP pics too!

Haha I wasn't trying to trade mark the Belfie (ingenuitve name there ;)), but it was just sort of my style lol. It's a carryover from my forgotten project log: "A beer and a model" :P

 

I was lacking Prosperian wine, so I had to make do with Octoberfest....

Loving the progress here guys.  Must admit I was a little sceptical on the horses but I am happy to say it does work.  I have been making progress (torsos mostly painted) and will throw up a WIP shot when I have something worthwhile to show.  I am looking forward to what you have to produce here helter as I do love me some Pre-Heresy Thousand Sons.  And November, I look forward to seeing more yellow marines as yellow is always cool. Well that and I am going to pop in some yellow Traitors for the CAll of Chaos coming up and its always an inspiration for others to tackle the cursed colour.

I like where this is going, however my only gripe is that the gun can only pivot a lot less now because of the statues.

I cut part of the eye off to make it look more occult. I think it looks better this way.
