MakoBoy88 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 "Do not look to use for kindness. Do not look to us for hope. We are not the kind children of this new age. We are the rocks of its foundation. If you wish hope then look to what we make. If you wish kindness then look to those who will come after us" Hello all, and welcome to my first proper Project Log. This will be a record of my assembly, painting, gaming and list progression for as much my inspiration as anyone Else's.Over the last few weeks i have managed to accrue to start to a nifty little Imperial Fists force, and am in the process of putting it all together and painting it.http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s604/Frostmourne1138/IMG_0572_zpsq6rp0nqv.jpgSo this is just most of what i have, some part are already in soak, and some as you can see at the back have been either donations from friends, or bits i had from other armies (notably my Iron Hands)Left to build i have...25 Breachers, with 5 more on the way from FW.10 Tartaros Terminators with Weapons (Still waiting on my Shields from the Stormcast Eternals to turn up)Leviathan DreadnoughtSpartan Assault TankDeredeo with ML and ACThe Man Himself Alexis Polux10 Lads with AutocannonsA BunkerStill to buy i have 3 Heavy Bolter Rapiers and a Laser Destroyer Vindicator.I plan to have 10 of the Breachers by tomorrow, and progress at that sort of rate. painting will be waiting as i need to buy a new airbrush as mine broke itself.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Some of you may remember a few weeks ago i started a Thread on here about Events in the South of the UK, well now we have our first event organised, in which some of the members of this board are attending.Its called Called to Arms: The Vykaria System, and will be the first in a series of narrative driven events throughout the year, in which general hobby will make you the winner, not the person who stomps most in games. I am still writing up the rules pack, but we are nearly done. We also have in planning stages a Choral City Board, just to set the stage with a little more grandeur, even though of course the campaign will not take place on Istvaan.The Campaign will be 14 players, 2 teams of 7, fighting over a series of War Zones as described in Book 4, with 3 games played throughout the day. In the fluff i have written, the Loyalists are dug in well (Obviously as im playing IF this does benefit me), and the Traitors are attacking in full force. At the end of the Day, the team with the most wins owns the territory. This will yield benefits in the following events.Shamelessly ripped off in parts from events i have seen around the globe, Throne of Skulls, Inferno etc.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------More pics will come tomorrow as i start to build.The force itself will be a Stone Gauntlet themed Polux led Breacher force.+++ Knight Errant + Polux (2505pts) +++++ Legiones Astartes: Crusade Army List (Age of Darkness) +++ HQ +Alexis Polux····Master of the Legion [The Stone Gauntlet]Knight-Errant [Librarian, Narthecium, Psychic Mastery Level 2]+ Troops +Legion Breacher Siege Squad [3x Graviton Gun, 14x Legion Breacher Siege Space Marines, Legion Vexilla]····Legion Breacher Siege Sergeant [Artificer Armour, Power Weapon]Legion Breacher Siege Squad [14x Legion Breacher Siege Space Marines, Legion Vexilla, 3x Melta gun]····Legion Breacher Siege Sergeant [Artificer Armour, Power Weapon]+ Elites +Apothecarion Detachment [Legion Apothecary, Legion Apothecary]Legion Rapier Weapons Battery [Legion Rapier Weapons Battery, Legion Rapier Weapons Battery, Legion Rapier Weapons Battery]Legion Terminator Squad [Legion Spartan Assault Tank, 4x Legion Terminators, 4x Power Fist, Terminator Armour with Combi-bolter and Power Weapon]····Legion Terminator Sergeant [Power Fist]+ Heavy Support +Legion Heavy Support Squad [Autocannons, 9x Legion Space Marines]····Legion Sergeant [Augury Scanner]Legion Vindicator Siege Tank Squadron····Legion Vindicator Tank [Laser Destroyer Array]Leviathan Siege Dreadnought Talon····Leviathan Siege Dreadnought [Armoured Ceramite, Grav-flux Bombard, Leviathan Siege Drill]+ Legion +Legion Astartes [Loyalist, VII: Imperial Fists]Created with BattleScribe (http://www.battlescribe.net) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320255-imperial-fist-project-log-all-the-tanks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marqol Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Now to me that list does really scream Imperial Fists. I notice the Sicaran and the Whirlwind aren't in your list, will we still see them painted up? (I really like Sicarans) Looking forward to seeing that list come alive!

Marqol Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Those shields on the terminators really work. Are the warders going to be warders or are they your breachers?

MakoBoy88 Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 Warders are my Warders :) I am building Breachers right now, and DAAAAMN they are imposing in a group.

MakoBoy88 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Today I started painting using the FW recipe Phalanx and j think Slips have used before. I do love an airbrush blend in my rookie ways so it may look a little cell shaded but I think looks okay :) thoughts?

lionofjudah Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Well. Loving how that yellow pops off the red like that! I usually base coat black gray and white and then start my layering at Brown but think with my next round of fists I will prime with this technique here :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320255-imperial-fist-project-log-all-the-tanks/#findComment-4343228 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slips Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Holy crap. Red as a base for yellow? That looks epic. Yep! Red/Orange works quite well for building up to yellow!

MakoBoy88 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 It's actually not red, it's a really blood orange. It's 50/50 Tamiya Flat Red and Yellow. Then 25/75 Then 100% yellow. I'm supposed to do a wash next but I don't think j want to.

Slips Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 At the Very Least, I'd do a light controlled wash around/on any details that you arent going to paint another color. So, like the Leg Plate Seams, the gorget, etc, to make the detail pop.
