Boc Posted August 21, 2023 Author Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) Forgot the legionary shelf lol I'm kind of in a "holy cow" moment since I hadn't had the full Chaos displayed yet, 178 infantry, 26 vehicles, and still have to tackle the pile of shame Edited August 21, 2023 by Boc Rusted Boltgun, Grotsmasha, Firedrake Cordova and 1 other 1 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373093-bocs-all-chaos-all-the-time-legionaries-complete-defiler-wip/page/10/#findComment-5982331 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firedrake Cordova Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 That's an impressive display and a lot of painted minis - well done! 7 hours ago, Boc said: Only 3 legionaries missing since their arms broke off while moving them. They shouldn't have turned to Chaos - such are the wages of the traitor! Seriously though, sorry to hear it and hopefully they're easily fixed!

Boc Posted September 6, 2023 Author Share Posted September 6, 2023 Been a very slow couple of weeks. Old painting area has been cleared out for the pending baby and I've got it all set back up in the basement. I'm a basement dweller in my own basement. Success? Got a few hours of work in on the Tyrant that I I'm still plugging away on for the Call to Arms. I'd thought, initially, that I'd finish my whole pledge before August. Ah, misguided optimism. Got most of the first two weapon arms finished up. Going to lighten up the plasma coils to try to make them glow, but had to wait for the washes to dry so didn't have a chance to work on it tonight. Started initial red trim on the top carapace. should be able to mostly finish it up i think by the weekend. Fall schedule with the kids gets pretty hectic though, so we'll see how I'm able to progress Firedrake Cordova 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373093-bocs-all-chaos-all-the-time-legionaries-complete-defiler-wip/page/10/#findComment-5986414 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boc Posted September 8, 2023 Author Share Posted September 8, 2023 A lot of progress on the Tyrant tonight. Only thing needed (I think) before detailing is the deathstrike missiles. Should be able to get that knocked out pretty quickly so I can 1. Do decals 2. Completely annihilate my fairly careful paint job with an obscene amount of weathering.

Boc Posted September 11, 2023 Author Share Posted September 11, 2023 Well... I finally have to paint some Cultists. I've resisted the meta as long as I can simply because I don't especially like the concept of running lost and the damned alongside Astartes. Since I wanted to get them over with quickly, I opted for a basecoat of grey seer and then some contrast paints. Hopefully I'll finish them up tomorrow night.

Boc Posted September 12, 2023 Author Share Posted September 12, 2023 Not my best models by a long shot, but they'll die quickly enough for me to not care! I'll still apply some more layers of mud to build up the bases more, then apply blood wash to make it fit in more with the skull bases. Maybe dry brush some runefang if I feel like it. Otherwise, box checked, unit ready, on to the Obliterators Firedrake Cordova, tinpact, Dr_Ruminahui and 1 other 2 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373093-bocs-all-chaos-all-the-time-legionaries-complete-defiler-wip/page/10/#findComment-5988136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boc Posted September 13, 2023 Author Share Posted September 13, 2023 About 90 minutes in on these fine, fine gentlemen. First time using Vallejo instead of Citadel for the plating. It's always been Mechanicum Standard Grey (yes, mechanicUM, lackeys of the false Omnissiah) and found a chart that said Vallejo Heavy Grey is the same thing. Nope, don't think it is! But I'll leave as is for these guys, because colorblindness is always a solid excuse. Hoping to get the metallics done tomorrow. I've gotten a few Vallejo airbrush metallics in (I'm trying to replace empty paints with Vallejo on the recommendation of local players that paint better than me), so hopefully the steel looking ones aren't actually orange or something haha Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373093-bocs-all-chaos-all-the-time-legionaries-complete-defiler-wip/page/10/#findComment-5988373 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boc Posted September 13, 2023 Author Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) Upon a double check, maybe i just can't read? And this is the one I had downloaded...

Firedrake Cordova Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) It looks like that's from the Dakka Dakka equivalency chart - if you look at the subscript, it's marked as "approximate", although I think they mean very approximate (Heavy Grey has more green in it). I'm not sure there's a great match for Mechanicus Standard Grey, as it is a little bit of an odd colour due to having a slight green cast to it. From what I can see, German Grey and Dark Grey are close in brightness (one's lighter, one's darker), but they both lack the green tinge. According to the RedGrim equivalency chart, there isn't a great match for it. P.S. I don't know if you know, but Vallejo re-formulated the Game Colour line (the new pots have more coverage, and a matte finish - you can identify them by the clear pots and tamper-proof cap seal), which has resulted in the Extra Opaque sub-line being dropped (although they're keeping Charcoal as a standard colour).

Boc Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 Decided tonight to switch gears from the forgefiend and Obliterators in favor of getting Accursed Cultists assembled. And then I got distracted. How many Accursed Cultists you ask? All of them. I'm optimistic that maybe I can finish them up by Sunday, but just the two layers of contrasts on all of them still took a hot minute.

Boc Posted September 19, 2023 Author Share Posted September 19, 2023 Slow weekend, but was able to do a tiny bit more tonight. Some of the brown contrasts added to pants, each cloak is colored in. Used different colors on the cloaks so I could differentiate if I ever split them down to single unit size, so I can still horde them and know which is which. Hopefully more progress to follow, but the boys' fall schedules are nuts with sports and other stuff throughout the week.

Boc Posted September 24, 2023 Author Share Posted September 24, 2023 There... are... so... many... I'm actually putting some decent effort into the detailing on these after the initial slap chop contrast applications. Right now in the middle of black washes on the red fleshy bits to help accent the red, then I'll be dry brushing either with blood red or Word bearer red, haven't quite decided yet.

Far too many to ever want to do in one go ever again lol Got started on my October vows a little bit with my 2nd of 3 forgefiends. I'm planning on finishing a 3rd, some oblits, and I forget what else in a baselessly optimistic vow. I've got the grey+green wash applied on all of the models... but good lord there's a lot of trim everywhere! I'm thinking another two nights dedicated work on this guy, before adding gloss varnish and going to town on weathering. I've got a few new Abteilung 502 oils that one of the local guys has been raving about (rust, sepia, starship filth, black) that I'm looking forward to trying out on this dude.

Boc Posted October 15, 2023 Author Share Posted October 15, 2023 (edited) Finished everything up, so glossed him and added all of the weathering. Figured I'd get cracking on the Dark commune while waiting for the oils and enamels to dry, so knocked out the Demagogue in one go. And after some cleaning up. Tomorrow I'll be applying matte varnish to take the shine away and basing.
