Mandragola Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Very nice stuff here. The weathering is about right. I've got my primed Apothecary on my desk at the moment and I'm kind of unsure how to paint him, but I do like your version.

andes Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 Thanks! The Apothecary was the most challenging model I've painted for the army so far. I did a lot of Google Image Searches looking for inspiration. There's one in particular by Siege Studios that I really liked and found useful FWIW. I had hoped to make the metal on the servo arm thingies a more sterile looking bright chrome but I just couldn't get it to work on the model... it just ended up looking washed out to me.

andes Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) I started work on the Indomitus Blade Guards, but just couldn't get into them so switched over to the Chaplain. He was a blast to paint. I'll take another stab at the Blade Guard next. Man, I really want to get some games in with these guys. It's a weird feeling to have a new, completely painted but unplayed army... the problem is usually the opposite Edited August 17, 2020 by andes Brother Captain Vakarian, The Pounder, MadEdric and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/362993-my-if-modernization/page/3/#findComment-5586924 Share on other sites More sharing options...

andes Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share Posted September 7, 2020 Bladeguard done. Definitely slowing down on this project though... I want to finish all the Indomitus models, but I think it might be wise to take a break and paint something else Magos Takatus, StratoKhan, jeremy1391 and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/362993-my-if-modernization/page/3/#findComment-5597505 Share on other sites More sharing options...

andes Posted September 13, 2020 Author Share Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) I love the Heavy Intercessor models and will definitely get a box or two when they release. I'm making slow progress on the Outriders right now, maybe I'll take a stab (ha!) at the Assault Intercessors next...

andes Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 Thanks for the kind words. The 'Rona Lockdown is terrible for everything except army painting. Next up is my Judiciar.

Brother Captain Vakarian Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Excellent work on the Judiciar’s face.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Good job on the Judiciar. In his backstory, who inflicted the scars over his left eye? Necron Flayed One, a Daemon, a lightning claw-wielding Chaos Space Marine, a Genestealer, a death world beast, or something as mundane as an angry ex-girlfriend? andes 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/362993-my-if-modernization/page/3/#findComment-5606321 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pounder Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 The Outriders are amazing! Really good job. Also I like the head swap on the Judicar. Ps. Yes my brother’s Indomitus box is a made to order, sadly we missed out on the first run.

andes Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 Thanks! It's a bummer your brother missed out on the first round, but the box is absolutely worth the wait. Hopefully GW comes through with earlier-than-planned fulfillment.

andes Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 I finished the first five E2B Assault Intercessors from the Indomitus box. The sergeant's thunder hammer is a kitbash, no special weapons were included on the sprue (no surprise there, E2B and all that). Assault Intercessors don't really line up with my army's theme, so the 10 from Indomitus will probably be all that I do which is a bit disappointing given the upcoming multipart kits are looking to be a lot nicer.

andes Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 Had a bit of a hobby slowdown. Between painting Space Wolves for my friend's army and Indomitus burnout (the models are so fancy and detailed I find they make it really hard to stay motivated... weird, eh?) I haven't been very productive. C'est la vie, hobby is not a job Anyways, I finished Chaplain Sturgis. He's a very serious fellow who keeps his bike showroom-clean at all times, so no weathering. Nobody knows how he does it in the middle of a hot warzone... there are rumors his Servo Skulls have brushes magna-locked to their heads but nobody knows for sure.
