Hidden Content

Standard bearer and leader. The glyphs say “Wortthug”, the name of their runtherd. The mushroom and name refer to the grots’ non-combat role of guarding/tending to fungi.

It was good fun making these. I’m making some Oddboys next and will give each one or two grot assistants.

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Fine works, Kierdale. I admire the effort you put into marking gretchin clothing with snakes, snake jaws, snake markings, etc. Edited June 7, 2020 by Bjorn Firewalker

[Kierdale]

Thanks! I didn’t want them wearing just plain sackcloth. And it gives them a bit more colour. The glyphs are to show they’re slaves prisoners with jobs.

My LPC2020 vow is complete:

 

[Captain Caine 24th]

Captain Caine calling it done on the Invictor Tactical Warsuit, for my Adeptus Astartes (spacemarines) Imperial Fist Vow.

So, significant Other out of town for the weekend... I thought, well maybe I can do this in a day. Figured ok, it's go time. Let's do this. 12-year old me is outrageously excited. 21 year old me thinks a tavern sounds better. 35 year old me thinks I don't have the patience or stamina for this. Well, it took about 2 hours to cut, clean, sand and glue. I tried out a new paint scheme on an intercessor so I didn't have to waste a lot of time deciding on that. I'd never done the non-metallic metal style on a vehicle. It confused me greatly, as it's the opposite of a zenithal I usually do on my guard tanks. Base-coating, Painting, detailing, and sponge chipping took 5.5 hours yesterday, and 2 today. Basing, weathering powders, and decals (with several gloss and matte coats) took another 2 hours. I wish I'd planned the base better in advance. Now that I think about it, some shell casings would be a nice touch... Bah, I'm calling done. Didn't do it in a day, but I'm happy with 48 hours to completion. DORN LIVES!!!!! OMEGON, I'M COMING FOR YOU!!!!!!

 

[Guest Triszin]

finished the grot/ will do better pics of him tonight

starting to paint the incursor pack leader

 

[Leonaides]

I, Leonaides, vow to complete a Space Crusade squad for the Further Glory of the Blood Angels Forum on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end.

-This, children, is exactly why they send terminators into space hulks nowadays - lifespan of these guys was measured in seconds if a dreadnought snuck up on them.

I'll just leave this here... (and the lovely original box art paint scheme below)

But - do i do an oldstyle paint scheme as above, or try for a more modern version (less orange and cartoony)? Do i go for the white-armoured captain/sergeant or red? Thoughts appreciated gents/ladies/xenos fiends...

[Brother-Captain Gilead]

I announce that my vow is complete and this Master of Signals is ready to direct the fire and fury of the artillery attached to the 37th Expeditionary fleet he is serving in. For the Glory of the Lion and the First!

I once one-turned the Dread with my Sergeant; he was the axe/pistol kind!

 

Edit: It was also first turn. Insane.

Just a small WIP for my entry, the Relic Leviathan Dreadnought in Deathwing colors.

[WarriorFish]

Just in case anyone thought I don't put my money where my mouth is:

I'm finding time where I can for my motivation, if I play my cards right I might even be able to aim for gold..?

[Florida_ Omegon]

Ok....forgot to post this saturday.  But here is my completed Model.

 

 

 

Was a fun model to do.

Why not a more modern scheme, but with the iconic white sergeant? It would be a nod to the classic look and a refresh at the same time. Either that or just go the whole hog and make them Flesh Tearers instead of Blood Angels!

Little update while I wait for these to dry - managed to grab an hour to play with these. One will end up being the base for my scout

"I, Captain Caine vow to complete a primaris redemptor dreadnought for the Glory of the adeptus astartes/space marine forum on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end"

 

 

Sounds like maybe no penalty for moving and shooting for this guy in 9th... Oooo, things are heating up.

[Jerethdatiger]

So my wip for my marine captain in cataphracti armor. Tried some different things
