panzerkommander Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Your painting looks really well done! Keep up the good work! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357777-carcharodons-astra-project/#findComment-5369692 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Your models ARE well-painted, in my opinion. The shark jaws framing the drop pod's missile launcher, is a great touch.

thewarriorhunter Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Yeah, you shouldn't say you're not good at painting. Your weathering looks great and all of the shark details really pop. That's a great looking strike force you have there.

Xenohammer Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 So, more Space Mariens for my Chapter. A Venerable Caplain Dreadnought, a self build Libraian and two Rapier Laserdestroyer.

golfdeltafoxtrot Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Great work on these Frater, really captures the spirit of the Carcharadons. I've just finished the novel Carcharadons: Red Tithe. Have you read it all?

I came into the book knowing very little about the Carcharadons, I'm definitely going to pick up Outer Dark.

Xenohammer Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 Excellent works. Thanks, I'm currently working on a leviathan. After that comes probably a squad Devastators. I have a question for my brothers. How would the mission goal markers appropriate to the Carcharodon theme, look like? I do not have the right idea yet. But maybe you?

MajorNese Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Looks great, especially the freehands and generous use of 30k bitz and models make them pop and support the rather unique background. Objective markers? Well, given their supply problem, I'd say anything they could use to go on. Gear crates, fallen Astartes (friend and foe), maybe command terminals or machinery (energy cores etc.).

Xenohammer Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 Looks great, especially the freehands and generous use of 30k bitz and models make them pop and support the rather unique background. Objective markers? Well, given their supply problem, I'd say anything they could use to go on. Gear crates, fallen Astartes (friend and foe), maybe command terminals or machinery (energy cores etc.). Maybe a stand for the armor, at least part of it. By the Bitzperor, I need more Bitz.

Legion. You can also see a red trim at the Forgeworld Javelin.

Xenohammer Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 Hello, again something from me. I still had this kit and I thought it was time to finally build it. The parts are so badly casted. Its has crooked and twisted parts. The halves of the transport sections have different lengths. Very big gaps that I had to fill up with Green Stuff. I sat forever to straighten the parts with a hair dryer. Funny is that I have a bald head. What did my neighbors think of me? Anyway, I love the design of the Assault Ram and the way it's used. But it's the right way to knock. I just had to have it. Unfortunately, I did not always succeed in perfecting the freehands on the other side. But practice makes perfect.

MajorNese Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Yep, that one came together nicely. It's a legendarily bad cast, but not quite as bad as the first run of StormEagles. Looks good when the color goes from black to white in 4 steps - a lot more interesting than the (rather standard) two-tone Sharks. Red markings and position lights do their part too. The only thing I might add would be a little shading/rust/weathering around the antigrav plates. The area reminds me of brand-new factory floor, which is at odds with the Caestus' "dynamic entry" approach. I sat forever to straighten the parts with a hair dryer. Funny is that I have a bald head. What did my neighbors think of me? Yeah, we had something similar locally - our (entirely bald) guy walks into the packed gaming store, and asks the assembled hobbyists where he could find a hairdryer...people started thinking what hair he needs it for...awkward silence...
