Ishagu Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 Hey everyone. Just a quick update and some more pics to share. I've finished most of the Deredeo, just have the Ailos missiles to paint. The ammo belts gave me some real trouble, and even though I went for a static pose aiming forwards they still needed some heat bending to fit. I've not had the best time working with this model. I'd already assembled and painted one of these in BA colours for a friend and it gave me less trouble, maybe I just wasn't as lucky. Now, here's a pic of some of my basic Tactical squads: Thanks for looking! I can't wait to do a complete army showcase and overview once everything is painted. Once the first 2k points are done I'll be jumping straight into Solar Auxilia or some Castellax Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318884-ishagu-is-doing-some-hobbying-an-ultramarines-hobby-thread/page/2/#findComment-4336492 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 The tacticals look ace, and the deredeo is coming along nicely. Have you been using 2 different blues, as some areas look like you have filled in sections with a lighter or more aquamarine blue colour (behind the head for example) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318884-ishagu-is-doing-some-hobbying-an-ultramarines-hobby-thread/page/2/#findComment-4336499 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 Yes, I'm glad someone noticed. As well as doing highlights, I like to add a bit of colour variation to the vehicles I paint. I like to use a lighter blue on certain panels to make the model look more dynamic in terms of colour. The transfers on the tacs chip off easily at the moment unfortunately. I'll be following Brother Chaplain Kage's advise in regards to working with transfers from now on.

Ishagu Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 I decided to take a small break from the Deredeo, and have touched up two Vindicators I painted earlier. Originally I got them painted very fast to a tabletop standard as I was keen to use them in games, but I went back and added details to make them more fitting for my force. I painted all the studs in silver, but can't decide if it makes the models looks better or worse...

Runefyre Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I like the way it looks ! The only change I would make is a touch of agrax earthshade to darken the studs a tad.

Ishagu Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 I like the way it looks ! The only change I would make is a touch of agrax earthshade to darken the studs a tad. Lol you want me to dab all those studs in a wash? Ugh... I guess I could do it :-P The silver studs really compliment tanks like the Sicaran, but they look a bit too much on Rhino chassis... On a separate note, is everyone here using the MkIIB Landraider in HH games or is the regular GW model accepted for heresy gaming?

The Pounder Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Looking fantastic! You should be very proud and I'm looking forward to the army pics! I like the way it looks !

On a separate note, is everyone here using the MkIIB Landraider in HH games or is the regular GW model accepted for heresy gaming? Personally use the GW one. It just depends on how OCD you are about such things!

Brother Pheidias Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Regular Landraider is fine, just say it's a variant/prototype. I'll be wanting a Mk. IIB eventually though.

Dantay VI Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The standard Land raider is okay for use in 30K, it classed as the Phobos pattern Land Raider during the Heresy, is it not?

God-Potato of Mankind Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The standard Land raider is okay for use in 30K, it classed as the Phobos pattern Land Raider during the Heresy, is it not? Yerp. The main difference is the sponsons have "houses" while in 40k they sort of dangle from an outcrop of armour. Also ace Ultramarines. Makes me want to paint some up myself :S Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318884-ishagu-is-doing-some-hobbying-an-ultramarines-hobby-thread/page/2/#findComment-4344139 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Finally finished the Deredeo! I'm so damn busy it almost took me two whole weeks :-( I've just ordered the limited editions Centurion model from an ebay seller (go shafted on the price) that I'll be converting into a Praevian with some additional bits I've ordered. After another Sicaran I'll be starting work on two Castellax :-D I think it turned out ok! Sometimes I resent my social life... being so popular gets in the way of the hobby :-P Let me know what you guys think, I love reading comments and criticisms!

Ishagu Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 Just a quick update. I've finally assembled my Legion Praevian. He'll be leading a unit of Castellax with dark-fire cannons... I might go crazy and run 4 of them Anyways, the model looks great. I used the head from the RG exclusive Forgeworld character... I forget the name, Captain Korvadae or something. Also used a combi-flamer and a more themed backpack to complete the look. It's based around the limited edition Centurion (Not going to lie, all these bits were expensive!) Also, I just finished work on this Landraider... I've dubbed it "Macragge's Decree" and it shall transport the Primarch into glorious combat... or get destroyed turn 1 And that's all for now! I've got a few things to keep me busy. The more models I complete, the harder it gets to settle on a list. I have a few options now for different point levels Thanks for looking!

Ishagu Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 A non Ultramarines model... I had a bit of a spray disaster a while back with some of the SoH models I was working on. The minis ended up looking like they were covered in gravel/cement which was annoying as I'd spent money and time on getting the bits to make them. Today I went back to my Primus Medicae and tried to get it to look respectable. Here's a few pics... Not exactly a smooth finish, but it will probably look good in the tabletop Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318884-ishagu-is-doing-some-hobbying-an-ultramarines-hobby-thread/page/2/#findComment-4354356 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 The Tartaros looks good, need to adjust the lighting though as he came out very turquoise, almost Alpha Legion looking. As for the dread, very solid, drill those barrels though!!
