Eberious Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 Here he is.. Heads blutacked in place for now to allow access to the inside rear when painting. Time to knock together some home brew rules on top of a Shield captains own. Can't wait to rip stuff up with this guy.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 That's an impressively dynamic pose. How'd you keep him from tumbling off his base? By drilling a deep hole in his leg, so you can insert the metal rod that anchors him to the base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) Thanks, and yeah. There is a 1.5cm wire acting as a pin. Its about a 3rd up inside the foot. Underneath the plasticard there is a cork block in the same shape, so its dug into that as well. Edited February 27, 2018 by Eberious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechType Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Seriously amazing pose! Good idea adding the GS detailing to the jump pack, I reckon that'll let it blend in better with the very ornate armour. Eberious 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 That's Boss with a capital "B". Eberious 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor Dalron Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Damn that Shield-Captain is amazing. Very impressive stuff you´re doing there! Eberious 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 Thanks all, So, started to practise painting Tartan for the first time today. First attempt at black watch Tartan(I believe), and second on the right, not sure which Tartan it is but works well with the gold finish I end up with. While I like both designs I'm likely to go with the lighter green tartan that I'll carry through the army, as its a little easier to paint. Few more times and should be a lot tidier. Thinking about re-painting the cloak on Ixion Hale/shield captain at the start of the thread with the second design. C&C welcome Almost finished the Vexilus Praetor, weekend probably as I also have to find a guide, learn and practise painting marble.

Inquisitor Engel Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Wow. That is all there is to say. Where is that head from? Eberious 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Lunkhead Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Amazing stuff Your kit bashing skill and dynamic posses make for some really impressive models.... Well Done Eberious 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 While I like both designs I'm likely to go with the lighter green tartan Since I'm not painting these, I feel free to say that I liked the Black Watch better. :) Besides <black watch> Eberious 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Thanks very much all, @Inquisitor Engel, the helmet is from the Vertus praetors kits. I shaved and filed the top knot mount off. @Honda, I'll be giving the black watch another go over the next day or so. Need to scale it down and take my time to see what it turns out like, might be overly complex to carry over the whole army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 might be overly complex to carry over the whole army. Dp you mean those 9 guys standing over there...? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Lol, you know me. I'll likely go past the model count I could possibly ever field in one go, plus the random conversions that are going to pop up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Awesome work bro! I love the Black Watch tartan because it's so similar to the Douglas tartan :tu: Eberious 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 Thanks Kizzdougs, gave the Black Watch one another go. Getting there. and some marble brown/cream. This side needs some sharper details as it has become apparent in this photo. C&C welcome. Kizzdougs and robofish7591 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
