Johanhgg Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Really great camo you got there duz! Im going for digi-camo myself on the shadowspear cloaks. Thinking about adding it to my Flyers and leviathan as well :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5280980 Share on other sites More sharing options...
duz_ Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Well I may not be an overachiever like some others in the Ravenspire... However I did finish all my Shadowspear mini's this weekend :DNot sure when I'll get to painting them, but its nice to have them done.I have another 5 man squad of Reivers I need to build and then I would have built all my Primaris marines. (Building wise I think I have some ASM's and Scouts left outstanding to build) Anyhow heres a family shot: And some adjustments to those hideous flight stands :)Took a little bit of messing around to get the 2 identical models posed different enough. I have no idea what the Sgt is meant to be doing...?

thewarriorhunter Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 You have any different angles on the suppressors? I haven't built mine yet and am still undecided if I'll use the flight stands, brass rod, or do something like what you've done.

duz_ Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 Well my leviathan promptly showed up last week. (bonus of living one state away from their warehouse I guess) Also my new bases had arrived the week before which meant time for a giant resin wash party (I am extremely glad to have my USC) :tu: MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5316938 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewarriorhunter Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 What is USC? Â Also I love that the flyer base has the notches to firmly keep that in place.

duz_ Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 Because of tornado sirens going off this evening my usual evening plans were interrupted so this began But then I got to this part and decided to call it a night. How did everyone else manage dry fitting and gluing these?

duz_ Posted May 28, 2019 Author Share Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) Got back from my tournament this weekend early Spent some of that time finishing off building and magnetising my Leviathan Next up painting! A few points I learnt Spend more time dry fitting FW models and checking their instructions! (why...)Because it says to put the sides on first then the head and top carapace... DONT! Its an extremely snug fit and I had to shave some of the top carapace off to fit it in It will also keep the shoulders straight and not slightly tapered like mine If magnetising the torso weapons (not that the Volkites have rules in 40k ) do this at the very beginning before gluing anything and drill the holes into the back of the weapons and torso, not the top like mine (this should prevent them from pointing in odd directions) Magentising the weapons is possible, but a slight pain Otherwise happy to have the model! Although I do wish it wasn't 50pts more than the Custodes Telemon Edited May 28, 2019 by duz_ longjohnsilver, Race Bannon, Brother Quixote and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5321561 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewarriorhunter Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 If I understand your magnet point correctly I may have a trick to help keep them level: https://imgur.com/a/0xFsd  Not sure if you've seen that before. 7th picture shows how I apply magnets. Keeps glue off your fingers and makes sure you get your polarity correct. 8th and 9th photos show actually inserting the magnets and how the sprue piece makes them level with the surface. Once painted you barely see them and no odd angles. duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5321567 Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewarriorhunter Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I was thinking the same time but decided to hold off giving the benefit of the doubt, presuming that a well put together AAR with pictures and stats was being put together for our benefit.

duz_ Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 Thx TWH, good tutorial  As for the batrep, I played with my IG, but if you want the full report it is here: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317654-a-mordian-march-to-glory/?p=5321796  It was a friendly and I went 3-2 (losing to a pure IK list and a Alaitoc Eldar Fire Prisim / Wave Serpent / Doom+Jinx / Flyer list )  I bumped into some buds there who are semi in the know and asked them when I attend my next event with them towards the end of the year with a competitive SM list I got a mischievous smirk, so here's hoping :D thewarriorhunter 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5321868 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewarriorhunter Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I keep hearing that marines are supposed to get good. I do hope it's true. What I'm curious about is if it's based on new models or new rules/strats/traits/etc.. Â Great write ups. Was one of those knights using a Necron flyer as a head? The picture angle and terrain made it look odd. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5321884 Share on other sites More sharing options...
duz_ Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 I hope its a bit of both More Primaris models but mostly improved rules with better durability and output!  Yes final opponent had looted Ork IKs one of which was a croissant turned banana  Army pic here https://www.facebook.com/MidwestConquestGT/photos/a.492229354319222/1085316885010463/ longjohnsilver and Dracos 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5322040 Share on other sites More sharing options...

duz_ Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Well after a bucket load of travel the last many weeks some normality returned to my life Which included a weekend were I could chill and do hobby I spent most of it working on my IG, however in the evening when chilling with the missus I finally got around to assembling my 2nd Repulsor This thing isn't any easier to build the second time around, dear Emperor the gaps! I had to pull my first one out of storage to see how I had magentised it so I can mimic it, fortunately it seems I did it the relatively easy way :) Was hoping to get the airbrush out over the weekend, but that didn't happen Once I do the Levithan is on that list :tu: Dracos, MithrilForge and Brother Quixote 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324644-duz-does-rg/page/20/#findComment-5329264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewarriorhunter Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 I love the band of rubber armor upgrade because of the +1 to save against blunt melee weapons. Really solid choice there, Duz.
