nevindar Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Well, there is also this guide, which I have used for my rank'n'file:http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286437-forge-worlds-iron-hands-painting-guide/ For blueish tint though...Well, I did a light pewter rub'n'buff on my Ferrus, with blue and purple washes for the base armour. I really should go get some proper photos of him one of these days//Nevindar(Edit, forgot to sign my own name.... le sigh) ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ordo Machinum Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Just a quick update of my progress... What do the Iron Hands & Mechanicum do when they don't have a dreadnought to save a revered Iron Captain? Improvise. Introducing the Kastemphractorii Dreadnought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironwrought Huw Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Managed to get the final assembly done between my shifts, now on to the painting. http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/Huberticus66/March10thLegion%20Entry/image2_zpsnqg8td5o.jpg The head (I got a bit over-eager and started painting) http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/Huberticus66/March10thLegion%20Entry/image1%201_zps7zjaggox.jpg I'll spoiler the other views to save space http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/Huberticus66/March10thLegion%20Entry/image3_zps03ufvsm8.jpg http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/Huberticus66/March10thLegion%20Entry/image4_zpssgvso7on.jpg http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/Huberticus66/March10thLegion%20Entry/image5_zpskdc0wipx.jpg The fluff will come when I've written it in the post with the finished model. For now though, a little flavour - They said that Isstvan was the end. That we were shattered, fragmented and beyond salvage. The Drop Site gutted our legion, scattered our clans across the stars and yet... here we still are. Isstvan shattered our Legion, and in the years since we have remained a thorn in the side of the traitors, a demonstration that a broken blade can still draw blood. And now, Tallarn. Tallarn will be our re-forging... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the battle of Istvaan V, after the Red Talon's assigned boarding parties had been all but used up, Demogorgnn was placed in charge of a last ditch assault on an Iron Warriors vessel currently blocking Autek Mor's flagship's path to the planet. Many boarding torpedoes were shot down before impact, leaving Demogorgnn's party broken and scattered across the ship. Those few that survived and found their Captain again were quickly surrounded by warriors of IV Legion. In an attempt to escape, Demogorgnn fell back to the shuttle bays and stole a craft which he piloted to Istvaan's surface. Demogorgnn's eventual fate is unknown.

Slips Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I did a thing. Yes, the thunderhammer has a HORRIBLE Mold Line. But eh, I can live with it :p http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-22%2000.32.26_zpslbeidi8w.jpg http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-22%2000.32.33_zps7dwzyiah.jpg http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-22%2000.32.39_zpsijg4uxai.jpg http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-22%2000.32.45_zpsnqiniu5t.jpg http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-22%2000.32.51_zpsjra0hqv9.jpg http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-22%2000.33.04_zpsizpoenqf.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slips Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 How did you paint that, Slips? Base coated with a 50/50 Mix of Leadbelcher & Nuln Oil. Which looked something like this: http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-21%2022.51.47_zpsjxttxkwv.jpg Then I Painted Reikhland Fleshshade on Select Pieces which ended up looking like this: http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-21%2023.00.34_zpswnxg5r38.jpg So The Entirety of the Upperbody but not the back with the Vents and Stuff and a few plates on the Legs. http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a598/stampeeder/2016-01-21%2023.33.40_zpspxn4h0pm.jpg Then, I Added Druchii Violet to Pretty much all the Trims. Upper Shoulder was layered Waywatcher Green the bottom plate a Druchii Voilet -> Drakenhoff Nightshade -> Guilliman Blue. Legs were, from top to bottom: Reikhland Fleshshade -> Druchii Violet -> Guilliman Blue Druchii Violet -> Drakenhoff Nightshade -> Guilliman Blue Drakenhoff Nightshade -> Guilliman Blue Reikhland Fleshshade -> Druchii Violet -> Guilliman Blue Agrax Earthshade -> Lamenters Yellow Leather Pturges were: Reikhland Fleshshade -> Agrax Earthshade 'till dark enough. The Back was: Drakenhoff Nightshade (except the bum plate which was Reikhland -> Lamenters) The Torso was then coated in Lamenters Yellow -> Agrax -> Lamenters or something like that. The Glazes went on 2 Coats minimum going up to 3 for the Green on the Shoulders. Everything was then coated ALL over in Nuln Oil in 2 Relatively Thick Coats. Drybrush over Detail with Necron Compound. +++ Edit: As with 100% all of my March of the Legion Entries, this was literally an experiment and I winged it from start to finish with only a rough idea of what I wanted to achieve going into it You can see in some of my Pictures that I was thinking of using Biel-Tan and/or Coelia Greenshade at some point but decided against it. Other Colors I considered but didnt use were: Carroburg, Bloodletters, Cassandora, Seraphim Sepia. Turned out pretty well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 That is going to be quite the faff to replicate. :blink: Thanks anyway! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Ehh its not really. Most colors were applied in only a single coat. What made it long was the drying time. The main colors were Druchii Violet and Drakenhoff Nightshade anyways hahaha with only the upper shoulder and torso being different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raktra Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Finally got a snap of my dude, he is a Praevian! Fluff'll come fully when he's painted, but I'll chuck a quote beneath him for now to add flavour. "They call themselves Emperor's Children.

Slips Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Yeah, but the leg jazz is what worries me. Still, I'll give it a spin and see what happens. The leg jazz isnt all those steps piled on :P Its going from Upper Plate to lower plate on the leg. So step one would be the waist plate. Step 2 would be thigh. 3 Would be knee and 4 would be shin :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostmourne Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I, Frostmourne, accept my role in this. I promise to lead the X Legion into the zone of war, and conduct them to raise the storm. I will do so no matter the ferocity or ingenuity of the foe. I pledge my honor to the X Legion. On this matter, and by the hands of Ferrus, I swear.
