Slips Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Built this the other day; didnt dry fit the lascannon cables before slapping the arms on so uhhhhh those wont be going on. He'll get painted at a 'yes' point in the totally not too distant future, promise.

Hfran Morkai Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I think it looks fine as is but would guitar wire work for cables? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I'll probably leave it cable-less. Their absence doesnt bother me at all. Hfran Morkai 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dicebod Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Finished up these Istvaan V Phoenix Terminators over the weekend! Brother Kraskor, WrathOfTheLion, Loquille and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LameBeard Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 @dicebod: Great Phoenix terminators - I especially love the gold, the gems and the bases. Do the pinkish panels have any significance? Meanwhile I am working on a Dark Angel. What do you all think about the red helmet stripe? Too much? So far I only have a handful of Mk IV with the red stripe just coming down from the vent to the brow, not going all the way over the top. If I like how this guy turns out, I have a few spare Mk III and might make a squad of 5 - perhaps a tactical support squad. The combi-plasma is magnetised so I can give him an alternative weapon if I like. The quarter-pattern shoulder heraldry is a nod to my Fallen in the background. Maybe that is his future, maybe not.

Iron Hands Fanatic Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I figured given Joe's been posting homebrew rules stuff here I'd be okay to post this rather than in my kinda quiet design threads:Each month I release a free, fully illustrated rules PDF for a 30k unit, and this month it's an entirely new class of dreadnought for the Silent Sisterhood:(you can find a full PDF of the rules & previous designs here ) Joe, dicebod and Doctor Perils 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dicebod Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 @dicebod: Great Phoenix terminators - I especially love the gold, the gems and the bases. Do the pinkish panels have any significance? Not really! I like to paint some armor panels different colors to break up the minis - I'm sure the assorted red/silver panels have some significance to these individual warriors, I just like the variety. Great Dark Angels by the way! LameBeard 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Meanwhile I am working on a Dark Angel. What do you all think about the red helmet stripe? Too much? I really like the red stripe! I think my eye is just drawn slightly by the shoulder pad and the quartering: I'd forgotten that there's a need for it to be 'wider' at the base to account for the trim's positioning. I'm not suggesting that's something you can fix - or indeed would even want to change, but I wonder whether it ties in really nicely - especially from certain angles? I think it complements it really well - I suppose you could always try differing positions of stripe if you wanted variety, or to differentiate between squads?

I think it complements it really well - I suppose you could always try differing positions of stripe if you wanted variety, or to differentiate between squads?Thanks!My idea is that the red helmet stripe will be army-wide (well, that “army” will probably be just 2 squads and a character), but the right shoulder will be individual heraldry. So the quarters pattern would be just for this guy (and the magnet is at the shoulder, so only if this guy keeps his combi-plasma, maybe he’s the sergeant. I wanted to keep the shoulder simple because it’s hard to do checkers, but also because I will put a decal on top in white: a skull, a gothic 1 or maybe a tactical arrow, so that will reduce the red slightly, but won’t change the funny proportions of the “quarters”.

Slinky Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Lovely work, everyone, the Night Lords, Iron Warriors and Dark Angels on this page are all ace! I've completed 2 3d-printed Rapiers for my Heresy Imperial Fists. The rapiers themselves are 100% printed, the crew are a mix of printed parts and bits from the bits box. Definitely came up against the limitations of FDM printing with the crew parts, had to have a few goes to get some of them acceptable.

Bloody Legionnaire Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Anyone seen the new plastic spartan in person? I imagine while it’ll be largely similar to the resin spartan I’m sure it will have some minor detail difference because it is harder to achieve fine detail in plastic compared to resin.

Hfran Morkai Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Looking good! Just won a FW Ironclad, Seismic Hammer and Power Claw (which admittedly needs some fingers but may use some spares from one of my Contemptors or plasticard some up). Such a cool sculpt. Now need to try and find a Flamestorm Cannon, Chainfist (?) and the Siege Drill. LameBeard 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
