Bonzi Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Sorry if this is badly formatted, I'm doing it from my phone. This is what I have so far of my Vostroyan army. Most pics are of models still in process. Comments or suggestions welcome. iceman2160, librisrouge, duz_ and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341407-vostroyan-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShredder Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Is that a Vostroyan head on your commander in the first picture? If not, can I ask where it's from? Anyway, that banner is really beautiful. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341407-vostroyan-wip/#findComment-4933152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Good to see you Bonzi, lovely models the colours on the tank are especially good great stuff :tu: Have you decided on a basing scheme for them? What's next on the list? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341407-vostroyan-wip/#findComment-4933172 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonzi Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 @Shredder:. The head is from Pig Iron Miniatures and is their Kolony Winter Militia line. I bought 40 heads for maybe $20 US with shipping. The heads are a touch smaller than GW and are a cross in looks between Vallhalan and Vostroyan. @USN: It's all done by hand and eye. Couple tricks I use is to lightly dash on a line with a sharp tipped graphite pencil first. Then use a very fine brush and super watered down paint to make the first outside lines as guide rails. Do the whole line in one smooth stroke with even pressure. The pencil line gives you a target, the watery paint flows smoothly and prevents breaks or smears and is thinner so if you mess up it's easier to cover. Once you have the outside lines the watery paint acts as guard rails as you fill in. @ Warrior:. There are 20 Pig Iron head retrofitted cadians in process now at the same time as the demolisher. Once both of those are done I'm gonna tackle my Vulture. After that? Mountains and mountains of grey plastic and actual Vostroyans to paint. duz_ and WarriorFish 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341407-vostroyan-wip/#findComment-4933194 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kruso Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Nice Vostroyans there! Can't wait to see more. Also thanks for the Pig Iron tip, I guess I'm making some conscripts after all.

Bonzi Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 Yay, someone else doing Vostroyans! Are you going to be using the Vostroyan doctrine? Oh yes. Played several games with it already. Still haven't used the order but the strategem is gold and 6" of range is nothing to be sad about. Note: A friend just linked me a preview of a new Anvil Industries head bit that is even more vostroyan looking. No idea when it releases though.
