Hammerfest Posted February 10, 2020 Author Share Posted February 10, 2020 Here's the next one done... I'm also almost done with the next reiver. Left on the painting table are still 4 more reivers, a converted lieutenant and reivers converted to incursors and last but not least, my Forgeworld dreadnought. I also still have a Feirros in the post to convert to a techmarine.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 The Reiver is well-painted. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359907-reawoken-crusade/page/2/#findComment-5475528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammerfest Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 Cheers Bjorn! I've finished my second reiver and started on my dreadnought. My 6 year old son keeps asking about the unpainted 'robot' and how, when he's big, he'll build me a real one. I think he'll have to invent it after journeying to Mars, but before he builds his 'solar flare-machine' which'll reduce our need for electricity and ensures all meat on the barbeque is cooked to perfection, after which he'll become a helicopter pilot - architect - racecar driver - pokémon trainer. Guess I'd better start saving up for those studies :D So I've decided to start painting the dreadnought. Partly to please my son, partly to be done with that huge chunck of grey resin.

Hammerfest Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 (edited) Seeing the previews for the new primaris units (and their crusader helmets), reminded me I haven't given an update in quite a while.I've had to wait quite a while to get some new bits in (for some reason it's cheaper for me to buy and import bits from Australia, which is on the other side of the world, than buying from more local Europe-based bit-sellers). Anyhow, without further ado: Edited May 24, 2020 by Hammerfest Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359907-reawoken-crusade/page/2/#findComment-5527968 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammerfest Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 (edited) Dreadnought: Still needs his banner to be finished: Reivers: all done bar one Next up'll be my incursors. They'll be based on reivers and wielding swords and daggers. As always, C&C is appreciated.

Hammerfest Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 Cheers Bjorn! The wait for the new heads was worth it imo. I also have enough crusader helmets to give one to all phobos marines I have planned :) I think crusader helmets are iconic for Templars. And though I love the clean aesthetic of the current primaris line, I like to include as much character as I can.

Marshal Reinhard Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Venerable treasure there in that dreadnought. Also really like classic helm on that Reiver.

Brother Kraskor Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Beautiful painting! I really want to be able to achieve the white cross on black helmet like you have, but don't think I've got the skill!

Hammerfest Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 On the dreadnought, it’s pre-modeled, so no skill involved there. Only the two characters on the first page of this thread have it free-handed. What helps (for me) is outlining what you want with a pencil (with a soft tip, not a hard one that’ll scratch your undercoat). I do this for almost all emblems (the small shield-shaped crusade badges on their greaves and shoulders) and numbers on shoulders and knees. Afterwards, just tidy it up again with black paint. That’s one of the reasons I, after undercoating with spray, apply a coat of chaos black with a brush. This ensures there’s no difference in color, since spray and pot chaos black have a slightly different tone. Hope that helps!

Brother Kraskor Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I'll have to give it a go at some point, it just screams Black Templars. Maybe if a model performs well enough in battle to earn one...!

Hammerfest Posted October 12, 2022 Author Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) It's been a very long while since I posted here. In my absence here, I've nearly finished an extended and heavily converted Enforcer team for Necromunda and done more than half of a 4500pts 9th age dwarven holds army. I'm happy to show you my progress since I started on my BT's again, about a week ago, so here's a family shot: The dreadnought had his banner finished, I finished a chaplain, apothecary and techmarine. The two guys on the right are bladeguard. The third one is still waiting on a coat of paint.

Marshal Mattias Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 It was worth the wait! I like your nimble looking Sword Brethren. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359907-reawoken-crusade/page/2/#findComment-5874886 Share on other sites More sharing options...
