Wyv's VIIth legion- update!..... Paint!


Wyvern

Recommended Posts

Hail brothers!

 

So begins my new project, ive so far tried various armies and legions within the Heresy for a couple of years but still remain a son of Dorn. Due to my previous inability to paint yellow to a high enough standard ive benched painting up an Imperial Fists army more times then i care to count. This will all change, i must not and will not fail again!! Lol.

So armed with 2 BaC box's and an imminent FW delivery i once more step unto the breech. Im planning my force in the days/hours leading up to the siege of Terra sorta during the void battle and opening bombardments.

As im doing the 1st company Sigismund will be leading them and id love to bring a more elite/ veteran feel to my force, Templars, command squads upgrade sprues all over the place with a liberal amount of tabards thrown in for good measure!!!

 

Its probably not gonna be the fasted moving plog ever but hell the defences of Terra wernt built in a day!

 

Tanks for looking Wyv

Hail brothers!

 

Tis a new year and that demands an update! (Only 4 days late ><) progress as promised has not been stellar but it has been made, first up the gratuitous "resin pile shot" this is everything ive hoarded for this project... Still not enough! Lol

So to the progress!

Nothing too overwhelming so far just my 2 BaC contemptors built and primed!

Currently im building a couple of test mini's for my paint schemes.

 

Cheers for looking, Wyv

Hail brothers!

 

Alas no content updates today im stuck at work all day :( test mini's are on the way but i havnt unpacked my airbrush after moving house as yet and 6 thin layers of yellow per model is PAINFUL lol

 

I wanted to post today to try hash out and get opinions on the force im planning. I am hoping this will be my first ever playable army!!! I have never played a game in my life despite being into the hobby for 10 years or so lol

 

So enough dribble, what i have is 2 BaC box's, a 5 man squad of templar brethren, mk4 and IF command sets, a rhino and a landraider im going to repurpose and ofc sigi!

 

im thinking to begin with 2 10 man tac squads my 2 contemptors (1 dual CCW the other dual assult cannon), a HQ and maybe some veteran tacticals but other then that i have no idea hell i dont even know what to arm my sergeants with lol

 

Lemme know if you guys have any opinions.... On anything lol

Cheers Wyv

Hail brothers!

So progress has been as usual pretty slow.... But this time on purpose:) im holding off painting till the 15th so i can take part in the L&T, but on the upside its left more time for building!

 

So heres a lil sneaky peak at (drum roll)....... My first EVER legal unit!!! I know right! Lol

May i present to you Veteran tactical squad Temptus!

 

First 5 inc Voxila

Apologise for the shocking pictures but all i have is my phone at the mo :(

With my force being set in the build up to the Siege i figured they'd be tooled up with as much ammo and extra gear they could carry, hence all the extra gubbins.

 

Lemme know what you guys think

Cheers for looking Wyv

Update time:

 

Hail brothers, so i have completed my 2 comtemptors as part of this months casual hobby challenge.

Here we have ancients Artur and Titus

Ancient Artur once served as first captain and equerry to a previous legion master before the coming of our Lord Dorn. After internment into a dreadnaught chassis he remained a close advisor to Sigismund and remains the only living soul to refer to the black knight as "boy" and survive. During Sigismunds misgivings over repainting his armour to show he now served the Emperor directly it was infact Artur who convinced him to do so by having his own chassis repainted in templar black.

Ancient Titus.... Is still getting fleshed out as it were all we Know for definite is that Roma is anmongst his rolls of honor

 

And just a cpl of PiP pics of Veteran tactical squad Temptus litterally just got the base yellow and a quick wash done

Any and all CnC welcomed, Cheers for looking Wyv

Looking cool! That paint scheme really works! Those command units are going to look ace as well, really effective conversions there. That banner bearer looks so cool. Are you going to add any more patterns to the banner itself when painting?

 

Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the kind words brother, yeah im pretty pleased with how brother Belphor turned out was trying to capture a kind of quiet intimidation in him. As for the banner i REALLY suck at freehand so im probably going to keep it quite simple just some VII's dotted around and something to mark it out as the 1st companies standard
