Hiddenermac Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Any reason you gave the Sicaran a mortal crew? I liked the model. Also perhaps it sows the seed of doubt into the enemy seeing one of their most fanatically loyal turned to chaos. Or they see trough the ploy and are disgusted by the blasphemy. It is a serf in battlefield scavenged gear trained in it's use. The marines are too bloodthirsty to be stuck in a tin can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Is it the grainy pictures or does your blue suddenly look far more splotchy than before? It looks so different from the Leviathan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emphasized the stippling a bit more on this one. I've mostly used a brush for it before but pulled out the sponge for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiddenermac Posted March 15, 2018 Author Share Posted March 15, 2018 I think the tracks and mud on the panels is finally done and I can move on to the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 It looks sick. DId you use enamel paints for the mud effects weathering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiddenermac Posted March 15, 2018 Author Share Posted March 15, 2018 It looks sick. DId you use enamel paints for the mud effects weathering? Great! I had a go at muddying them up before and didnt really like it, so I headed to the flgs with purpose to find something to aid me. I picked up vallejo crackle medium and mixed some brown into it for a... Dried mud feel. I think it works especially good on the panels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiddenermac Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 Cannon pretty much finished. Not super sure on the lenses as they kind of look like derpy eyes to me, but I guess it's okay for a first try. Overall very happy. I can almost see the finish line!

Pearson73 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Rust effects on the turret looking good, the lens is well done too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Nothing wrong with those lenses, indeed. They look smashing. Never in a million years would I have guessed crackle paint would look good as mud, but you seem to have pulled it off! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sagentus Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I agree the lenses look spot on! Amazing work on the turret. Look forward to seeing the whole tank painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiddenermac Posted March 27, 2018 Author Share Posted March 27, 2018 Thanks guys! Glad it's just me with the lenses then, haha. The crackle medium was one of those "am I going to :cuss this whole thing?" moments. And now it is finally done! A solid month of painting and I am well happy with it! Now I can finally move onto other things like the breacher marines I just got the parts for, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sagentus Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The tank looks epic. Really like the weathering on it too, certainly looks like its been in the fight for some time. The trophies help emphasise that too haha The latest model looks very rambo style, the guns look a bit to unwieldy for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankendoodle65 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 While I agree with Sagentus that the last guy is a bit over the top, I've got to say it brought a huge smile to my face! Warhammer gets taken way too seriously sometimes, so it's great to see something a bit silly and fun sometimes. I wouldn't change a thing, unless you want to give him even bigger guns ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super happy with the rust on the front especially. I did think about adding some servo bits to take off the weight but had nothing at hand While I agree with Sagentus that the last guy is a bit over the top, I've got to say it brought a huge smile to my face!

I think that 40k is quite silly a lot of the time so making something like this is very fun. Also seems to bring a smile to peoples faces, haha. There is never any shame in turning it up to 11. I agree! NICE WORK on the tank, bro! Thanks, brother! I forgot to post about this so it's been done in "silence" so far. So I got myself a cerastus lancer. Pretty intimidating kit but it's gone together very nicely so far. The pose is him shield bashing another knight down/ maybe running trough a house lol? The shield and lance head/rail are just blutacked on as to see how it works. I Have a third party shield and axe heads enroute. Plan is to kitbash the lance into a chainglaive. The plates on the leg armor and shoulderpad are a bit wonky on purpose to show a bit of a scavenged/stolen look as I'll be painting it straight midnight clad, no knight houses in my warband!

Hiddenermac Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 Thanks guys. Very happy with the pose myself too. Wad worried it would be hard to get something cool out of it but it wad fairly straightforward. I started painting the base and legs while I wait for the remaining parts.

Augustus b'Raass Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 I like the intent of the pose, but why is his gait ambling? The Knight is based on a human's walk, which is crossed - right foot and left arm forward, right arm and left foot back - while moving. Yet your Knight has an amble: right foot and arm forward, left foot and left arm back. It looks fine if he's leaning into the wind with his shield, but looks a bit unnatural if he's meant to be striding forward. Just my two cents though - I'm a stickler for precision in human-based poses. If you think it looks cool, feel free to ignore! :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
