Quite impressive assortment of terminators and solid paintjob on the praetor! Thanks. Bought a lot of this stuff a good 14+ years ago (originally shared the Terminators back in 2008 on here) and I thought they were expensive to buy then.. Have seen what some of my models go for now. Actually not sure whether to sell them or not haha - especially the RTB01 marines as they're going for a fair wedge of money now. But seriously, I'd rather use them myself.

Pacific81 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Holy crap what a collection! I don't think I have ever seen so many cobra-type Terminators in one place. Some classics right there, and really sought after minis. Have you decided what to paint them up as yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me a minute to realise that was 6mm scale - stripes on a shoulder pad! I have a guess but can’t find spoiler option on phone - will let other folks add their thoughts.

Oh and if I can get more I wouldn't say no lol Would like to do a couple up with heavy flamers as well. I have 1 more Variant C Terminator I can use as a 2nd Sergeant, so any more would become a 2nd Indomitus squad or interchangable ones.

WrathOfTheLion Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Are you going to change them to 40mm bases and all? I have found that wowstick drill pretty damn awesome for pinning metal models, which is super handy when I wanted to pin a metal Eldar Farseer and an Autarch onto 32mm bases after cutting the tab off.

Yes I'll be rebasing them on 40mm As for my RTB01 and metal Rogue Trader models.. I'm not sure whether to rebase to 32mm or leave them on their original size bases and buy those rings you can get to sit the bases inside. I'm going to replace the 2 power fists with 2 more chain fists And some of the storm bolter arms with the other variants as there's the different designs - the older ones have the shoulder pad edging and the newer ones don't. I want the ones with edging (I have enough spares to do so) so that the models aren't a massive lump of blue Edited January 16, 2023 by Dark-Storm-01 details LameBeard and Doghouse 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark-Storm-01 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Will be reusing my old tanks as well. I have the 40K land raider I believe is the phobeus model?

Pacific81 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Wow, I am wondering what treasures you are going to show next @Dark-storm-01 - half expecting you to find Rick Priestley in cryo-storage and defrost him to help you with the rules For the bases, why not try on both and see how it looks? I suspect with the little RTB01 guys, they might get lost on a 32m size, but you could pack the bases to make them like a diorama etc. LameBeard and Dark-Storm-01 1 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting on shell casings to use but suspect they might not turn up now - been over a week since they were posted. Got some model razor wire as well and the standard basing materials etc..

A couple of items I'd have liked to have gotten would be the Rogue Trader Land Raider and Land Speeder and a couple of the original Thunder Warriors. All too expensive for what they are IMO especially now Also maybe some of the riding lizards lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Zodd Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I’ve taken some time out from painting marines, mainly because I was moving house, but also because I’ve been working through the scenery from the first two Gallowdark Kill Team boxed sets. I thought these would make a cheaper alternative to the Necromunda-style Zone Mortalis scenery for use in smaller games of Heresy. Next up I have some objective markers, 5 for regular games and 5 based up to go with the scenery above, on my painting schedule. Once that’s done, it’s back to painting some more marines! Unless I get distracted and end up painting a Spartan or some Justaerin, or something… BrotherAtrox, Loquille, Xenith and 8 others 11 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruralguardhipcat Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Recently finished this Consul: a Salamander Legion Armistos with a Volkite Culverin.

Cactus Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) I love how subtle the glow on the volkite is. The little auspex mounted on the gun is a great touch.

Dark-Storm-01 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 So now have all 6 of the original Techmarines from Rogue Trader. I ordered one of the Mk III Techmarines from Forge World. Wondering if anyone on here have swapped out the weaponry that the model comes with. I'm personally thinking of ditching the bendy, flimsy feeling resin power axe for the thunder hammer from the Mk III legionary boxset But as for a ranged weapon I'm not sure whether to give him the melta gun from that box, one of the resin graviton guns (which I think would look cool with the model) or maybe get some of the resin combi weapons and give him one of those tinpact, LameBeard, Pacific81 and 2 others 4 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he had relentless so can make good use of it. Similarly, thunder hammer would be cool. But both means 90 points on a 1 wound, T4 model - seems a bit fragile?

Pacific81 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 A Legion Manticore Battery travels along a roadway. Following successful disruption of supply lines by Ork long-range Biker groups, the route is under protection. In this case by a unit of Androids, designation Gamma-Mu, who had been withdrawn from frontline duty after they failed to follow orders and assault an Ork counter-offensive, leading to heavy Legion losses.
