Luna707 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Well Varan Rakor is almost complete! I have a few bits left to do (left hand, some tassels, and a butt pad) and a lot of smoothing out, but I am just about ready to start painting him. Not sure about the sword though, it's very clearly a Grey Knight bit. Does anyone have suggestions for a simple looking broadsword? http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/image/171586-img-7830/'> http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/image/171587-img-7831/'> The pose I am thinking about: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/image/171588-img-7839/'> Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316632-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-december-15/page/4/#findComment-4247290 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueBelly1863 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015  Well Varan Rakor is almost complete! I have a few bits left to do (left hand, some tassels, and a butt pad) and a lot of smoothing out, but I am just about ready to start painting him. Not sure about the sword though, it's very clearly a Grey Knight bit. Does anyone have suggestions for a simple looking broadsword?   Luna, that is some incredible GS work!! I think the sword looks fine! mMaybe to make it look just a bit different you could shorten the hilt or remove the mechanics on the bottom of the blade?  Noigrim, I love those auxilia. I'm a big napoleonic/american civil war nerd so I love the look. Which historical minis did you use for them? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316632-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-december-15/page/4/#findComment-4247711 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevindar Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Aeternas: Cheers mate! Brutal is what I was going for after all. And of course, feel free to be inspired by it, I mean.. we all need cool stuff in our collections! Really like the progress on your Night Lords.Speaking of.. I did finish one of the weapons. (and it is straight in real life, not slighly bent. And the putty work is cleaned up.) sawitysawsawsawwwwwwww   Luna707: Really nice work! Regarding the sword, I do think a modified hilt would make it look more fitting. Maybe rework the bit where the sword meets the hilt, and maybe change the handle up a bit.  //Nevindar Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316632-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-december-15/page/4/#findComment-4248042 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor'Vesh Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 Time for a quick update me thinks!  We have thirty competitiors this month so far, with twelve heretics facing off against eighteen loyalists. Luckily those traitors are vowing BIG, so things are exceptionally interesting!  Pledged Scores Heretics 234 : 199.25 Loyalists  So the heretics are over 35 points ahead on pledges - a sizeable advantage in scope for December, and giving them a great chance to do something we've not seen in a long time, a back to back win!  Progress so far...  Completed vows Heretics 0 : 1 Loyalists  Score Heretics 50.5 : 39 Loyalists  Completion rate Heretics 21.58% : 19.57% Loyalists  We've actually had a lot of progress already - lots of completed models from March10K and Rage of Khorne have given the traitors a solid base to build from, while Noigrim has done the work to keep the loyalists in the fight.  So what does this add upto? An actual competition for the casual challenge in the festive season! Every model counts people, which mean I really should start painting!  Kor'Vesh Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316632-casual-30k-hobby-challenge-december-15/page/4/#findComment-4248359 Share on other sites More sharing options...

march10k Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 By th'emprah, betrayer41, that is some amazing color on the termie! Here are more fruits of my modest efforts: By my count, I still owe 3 marines and 3 termies...and FW just re-released the new 30k weapons, but they ship no earlier than the 18th, so I guess my termies won't be getting their volkite chargers till after the painting event...I do think the hydra shoulder pads will get here in time, though!
