Sith’ari Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 ...Some amongst you may feel resentment at being assigned to my brotherhood. After all, which true son of Chogoris would rather spend time striking down a wall when they could be hunting on the Altak? To you, I pass on the same words that the Khagan passed to me. Our legion is like a fast flowing river; wild and untamed. We must be the rock that guides that torrent. That diverts its raging strength to where it is most needed. Ours is the duty of control and it is a duty I carry with joy in my hearts...- Attributed to Sukegei Khan of the Brotherhood of the Sundered Mountain.Hi all!Ever since BaC was released, I have been struggling to narrow down my legion. That choice was made as soon as I finished reading Scars. The legion portrayed in that book really spoke to me and I just had to have a brotherhood of my own! However I wanted to focus not on speed, but on strength and so the Brotherhood of the Sundered Mountain was born!This is one of the brotherhoods responsible for cracking open heavily defended walls and fortifications and for holding the breach whilst the rest of the legion pours through. As such, I'm going to be collecting two forces, one full of artillery and other city busting weaponry and an armoured spearhead to carry marines to the breach.So without any further rambling. Here is the first eleven marines of my brotherhood:http://i.imgur.com/urpOoxK.jpg?1This is my first time both painting white and weathering marines, so I'm bound to have made some mistakes! Up next on the painting table will be five cataphractii terminators (because they look amazing and I can't wait to get cracking on them!) So until then thanks for looking!

Sandlemad Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Looking good, love the idea of a WS siege force! I like the red faceplates and the martian dust on the boots is well done. Dunno if it's the lighting but that's a lovely pale gold you've got on the pauldron rims.

One-eye Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Looking very good. The colour of the bases contrasts very well with the white of the armors. And I like WS brotherhoods that don't follow strictly what we expect (ie bikes and jetbikes). I will follow your plog closely !

Sith’ari Posted November 7, 2016 Author Share Posted November 7, 2016 Cheers guys! It's been fun weathering basic marines and I can't wait for this wash to dry, so I can get stuck in on painting these termies! :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327635-brotherhood-of-the-sundered-mountain-a-white-scars-log/#findComment-4556377 Share on other sites More sharing options...
helterskelter Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 The question is, do the sundered stone and sundered mountain get along/have rivalry/have enmity :p Really good white dude!

Soldier of Dorn Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Looks good. Always love seeing some Scars. Just as a suggestion though, right now your white is quite lacking in contrast: I would consider doing a darker shade in the recesses. Just an idea, but I'd be willing to bet that your models would look better for it.

Brother Pheidias Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Off to a great start! The Brotherhood of the Sundered Mountain, did we discuss this in a thread a while back?

Son of Carnelian Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 A darker red than you usually see for the Scars, but I like it! Keep it up!

okonomiyakimarine Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 nice mix'n'match of helmets and a great color scheme! The darker red is great for WS and the pale gold is beautiful. Is it a mix or a specifically produced color? maybe it is the light, but i do not remember if i had ever seen such a perfect gold for the white trim! Also is the dark red probably Vallejo's Scar? And a last question on color: The off-white at the backpacks?

Sith’ari Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 Cheers all! Sorry for the late reply, yesterday was manic! @helterskelter: Ahaha! There's no aggro from our end - whether the stone feel the same is a different matter! :lol: @b1soul: I like to think that there's a few mixed in there. I'm hoping to differentiate them from the chogorans by keeping there armour relatively trinket free. Possibly with the Roman five painted on every so often. @Psycho: The colouring between the plates stands out a lot more IRL. As usual my photo fu is weak! :lol: But it's definitely something I'll experiment with on the next marine. B) @Pheidias: We did! You helped me to figure out their name actually, so thanks! B) @okonomiyakimarine: Cheers! The gold is GW Sycorax bronze, washed with agrax earth shade and layered up with a watered down 50/50 Sycorax/rune fang mix. The red is GW's Mephiston red, washed with agrax, layered Mephiston and highlighted with evil sun scarlet. The off white is just a 50/50 seraphim sepia/Lahmian medium wash over white. Nice and easy! B) I'm cracking on with the termies. So far the white is finished. Now I just need to reblacken the trim, which takes forever!

Brother Pheidias Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I think the helmet grills and some other recessed areas of the white could do with a further targeted wash, just for some added definition.

Sith’ari Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hey all! Long time no see. I hope everybody's well and things are good! So after a little hobby break, I finally managed to get my termies done earlier this week! They're 99% finished as I'm just waiting on FW to produce a Scar's transfer sheet - so they'll be finished in about three years! http://i.imgur.com/8t0nt5Z.jpg?1 After going a bit overboard with the weathering on my first marines, I tried to limit it to the armour edges this time around. Personally I'm much happier with the result. I've also taken a better pic of the first ten tacticals: http://i.imgur.com/AQ8Ac6M.jpg?2 Up next, I'm working on the second half of the tac squad and a stormseer conversion. I've also finally caved and picked up the burning of Prospero, so expect lots of Mk3 goodness soon! Cheers!

Brother Pheidias Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Cataphractii looking fab in the white, and liking the Claws, suits them!Nice with the updated shots of the Tacs too.
