Pyroclast91 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Thanks for all the advice everyone it definitely wasn't as bad as I was anticipating even though I don't think I diluted my paint enough here's the squad after 3 layers. adult picture hosting So far I think it's coming along pretty well and I think these guys are gonna look pretty good standing alongside there cousins in the XVIIIth Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324498-imperial-fists-expansion-iv/page/9/#findComment-4485169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShVagYeR Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Two down, three to go. This time I skipped Yriel Yellow and just went with Averland Sunset as base color before applying the wash and highlights. The model turned out a bit more mustard than lemon, but I think I like the overall effect. I'll probably do both across the unit for balance.

Dosjetka Posted August 31, 2016 Author Share Posted August 31, 2016 Looking good, folks! Glad to see the progress and enthusiasm continuing. I've gotten some work done on my vow. Here's my progress so far: With any luck, painting will start next week.

Augustus b'Raass Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I, Augustus b'Raass, vow on the honour of the Imperial Fists to fully paint at least one Ironclad Dreadnought with Chainfist, Heavy Flamer, two hunter killer missiles and Ironclad Assault Launchers From Codex: Space Marines and one Contemptor Mortis Pattern Dreadnought with two Kheres Assault Cannons from Imperial Armour Two, for a total points value of 375, by Saturday 3rd December 2016. I promise to provide at least one "start" picture of each (below) and a final "vow completed" picture in that time. I vow to bring honour to Dorn and the Emperor by completing my vow and not failing my brothers-in-arms. Ironclad WIP: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/temporary_zpsdlqu6o8c.jpg Mortis Patter WIP: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Imperial%20Fists/temporary_zpssnstojxg.jpg Note that all parts are primed white, except the head, knees and shoulders, which are primed black, and the cannons, which are primed black and then had a Leadbelcher spray. The legs section was used to show how an airbrush works to misterkho and has less than 1 minute work on them - the yellow doesn't even cover most of it. All in all, I spent about 5 minutes to get this miniature from bare resin to where it is now. Question: will all vows be recorded in the second post, or just the most recent ones? Edit: found an answer to the question: yes. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324498-imperial-fists-expansion-iv/page/9/#findComment-4485977 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soldier of Dorn Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Dosjetka: The Tactical Squad (and their Sarge of course ) seem to be coming along quite nicely! About the Rhino: is the dozer blade the one from the Imperial Guard Tank Upgrades? I've considered picking some of those up to use on my Rhinos for a while now, and seeing yours, I think, has convinced me to do it! BTW, whatever happened to that Chaplain you put together way back when? Did it ever get finished? lionofjudah: I think I said this last time, but man, that is some sweet kitbashing work. I'm eager to see what this squad looks like finished! Disruptor_fe404: Looks glorious! Out of curiosity, do you airbrush your silver/chrome? I ask because it looks really stunningly smooth, and I'm curious to know what I can do to get a similar effect! Sadly, once again I have no progress to report, mostly because this is taking up a lot of my free time, but also because I'm pretty lazy too. Hopefully tomorrow I'll take some time to work on my vow, but I'm not so sure if I'll be so lucky too. Keep up the good work, everyone, and kudos to Augustus b'Raass for completing our first vow! You all do the Emperor's work! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324498-imperial-fists-expansion-iv/page/9/#findComment-4486430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovemberIX Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 So I'm sitting here working on the +[redacted]+ project I can't reveal before the 17th (which Dos knows all about) now let's say it's a singular bad 'ole beast of blasting baddies? It weighs in at 660 points, and I could feasibly make another of the same (but different and much more converted) but I'd have to forgo my plans for a pair of storm hawk interceptors. Some of you may have figured it out (I hope Honda is not among them, he's on the OpFor! ) and if so please keep discretion, but what would my fellow brothers of Dorn choose, The Swift Aerial Axe or the Furious Sundering Hammer?

SCOTT_FRANCIS Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Although it's an OOC vow, some progress made, I am still waiting for my donor Stormtalon, so it's only lower torso. I am playing with colours, eg the goldish pistons, but I think I like it and am going to go ahead with the colour scheme.

Kisada Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Did some more blocking in all the main colors before I gloss coat and wash. I'm a slow painter Was struggling with brushing on the white on the shoulder pads. Tried out masking the area off with silly putty and airbrushing it on. Worked out great. (Not in the picture).http://i.imgur.com/7TIqqeTh.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324498-imperial-fists-expansion-iv/page/9/#findComment-4487337 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask because it looks really stunningly smooth, and I'm curious to know what I can do to get a similar effect! No airbrushing, just making sure the metallics are properly thinned and layered. And being careful when touching up details. Extra care (and layers) required for vehicles because of the flat surfaces being much larger.

tvih Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Finally sat my ass down and managed to actually paint some. Almost done with the first model of the vow, my first CF terminator. http://www.tvih.net/stuff/wh40k/cf-termi-nidkiller.jpg Minor work still needed. Also got some of the painting done on the BT terminator marshal as well as two BT tactical terminators.

SCOTT_FRANCIS Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I have a question, having only recently returned to the fold, I was tempted by the silver witches of the Emperor, I don't have the latest Codex:SM and am soon to build a BT Crusade worthy of the Marshall I left behind. Is it too late to Vow my first? It will be the Stormtalon I am 'borrowing' the canopy from to build my BT piloted Knight. I will also need someone to add the points, I think it will be 130 pts. It would be - Storm Talon with TLLC. Is it too late to vow?
