your painting table looks full of stuff so i'll be patient :biggrin.: ,But yeah i guess i'm busting your Orbs so fairs fair,you get to kick back :sweat:  

i'm painting some Primaris Necropolis Hawks at the moment so yes i'll update that soon for you...my raptors are in the cabinet on a holding pattern...

i also have a push fit redemptor iv'e base coated that's destined for Necropolis Hawks too (he's next after the intercessor squad) 

Question though! whats everyone find that the best general purpose loadout for intercessors is?... just the plain ol' bolt rifle?, especially now with that beta rule "Bolter drill"

and whats with no power weapons in the intercessor boxset :down:  this is the first box of any new stuff iv'e opened and was suprised to find no pwr weapon at all...am i expected to buy some GW or FW upgrade pack?...

 

Cheers, Mithril

The Chapter Approved rules just give the options for chainsword, power sword and power fist. Which are in the GW upgrade sprues (which is why these are in the rules and others are not), or in any marine player's bitzbox. IIRC, there's even a power sword in the intercessor box.

For those who are complaining about lack of progress ;) :P

That's just the painting table of projects I want to focus on. It doesnt include the tray in the basement of other projects... :sweat:

I think the arms are interchangeable between primaris and regular marines so kit bashing should be straight forward.

I'm gonna dig around to find some chainswords for my sgts and attach them because who doesnt want +1A for free :D

Ive done 2 squads of bolt rifles and 1 stalker

I really want some of the assault rifles but missing the Ap-1 really hurts them

Temporary bottle cap base for painting :P

Speaking of the base I guess I should do a shrubland-esque base?
Generally I haven't done that before so I was hoping Armageddon dust texture, plus a GW shrub or something could work?
How would could I incorporate some green? (NO FLOCK! :P ) Paint the texture green? 

Can i ask why you NEED to do grass and shrubs?, you could always put a pillar/post or wall corner from any of the scenery kits and paint it up in drab colours for a city fight themed base like he's moving through cover in a street fight?...he does have that sniper sneaking look to him!...:ph34r.:

 

anyways well done on getting that base coat down so well :thumbsup:

i'll go searching my bitz box for a pwr sword or chainsword for my Primaris Sgt :wink:

lmao :)

 

 

Mor Deythan .... anybody else get that pleasant chill from the shadows crawl up their spine as they previews the Primaris Snipers? I thought I felt the fan blades of the Whispercutter barely overhead as they spread out over the ancient ruins ;)

Quick update

 

Been floating between various small projects post completing my commission

 

That includes readjusting and up sizing the magnets on my Redemptor so the weapon loads actually stay on :D

 

Maybe in this float period some Mor Dethyan maybe assembled

Although I may keep their arms separate to make painting them easier :)

  • 4 weeks later...

Still kinda meandering through my various projects

My Storm Eagle is washed waiting assembly at the very least. I have until next month to complete that. ;)

My Shadowspear box came in yesterday along with my second vindicare assassin so I decided I'd get to work on them. The minis go together pretty quick but the mono builds in general don't float my boat. I did do a head swap on the Cpt thought. Definitely wasnt a fan of the wrinkly old man head.

Nice swap. I primed the head that came with the model but the more I think about it the more I don't want to use it. I'll probably put a Reiver head on it, or maybe get some extra infiltrator heads so the comms gear is there, and if I buy a few of those bits I'll probably swap all the helmet-less heads. All the power armor in the world isn't going to help you if you get shrapnel in your eyes...

Beaky. Helmet.

 

That is all.

 

In other news: I'm baaaaaaaaack!

 

Got Shadowspear myself. About halfway through painting the Librarian already.

 

Will probably start a new thread detailing my progress. My interest in playing RG had waned lately, but the Vanguard guys brought me back.

Someone requested I do a tutorial for my digicam in another thread.

For completeness (and my personal reference :sweat:) I'm going to include it here too. :biggrin.:
