Paladin777 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I'm starting this to help keep me motivated throughout the year, in addition to show off what I've been working on. I hope to accumulate a full 3rd company eventually, though some of what I post here will be first Campany.

Paladin777 Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Captain Antargo, though he really needs to swap out his plasma pistol! I'll do that when my magnets come. His lieutenants, (though the one with the claws can be used as a captain sometimes). Squad 14 Squad 13 Squad 4 (which I finished painting this month).

Paladin777 Posted February 5, 2022 Author Share Posted February 5, 2022 Squad three (five more intercessors) is done, and with that I'm on track for the 12 month's of hobby! Next up to be finished in March is a squad of three eradicators! My wife got me that kit for Christmas.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Good job on your basing Pally! I know you were concerned about doing it st first, but it's subtle and looks good on your boys in red!

Paladin777 Posted March 7, 2022 Author Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) Three Eradicators of squad 6! When I was putting them together I didn't realize the sergeant hand with the pistol was augmetic, but I think it came out ok anyway! And with that my March entry of 12 Month's of Hobby is complete and submitted!

Paladin777 Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) This isn't really related to my company (though FWIW my 3 attack bikes are coming along nicely), but it is related to the hobby. I got a bunch of hobby supplies from my wife for my birthday! I got a magnifying glass stand with an LED ring on the underside, a kit of general tools ( didn't need the clippers that came in it, but the rest of the stuff will be very useful as everything else I either didn't have, or needed new ones), a handle for the minis (it comes with 6 magnetic discs that you can sticky tac an entire squad on so you're not constantly fiddling with the mini's), and a paint stand (my paints are horribly disorganized)!

BloodyB Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Great start, I do love to see some BA! The basing looks good, the sand looks really desert-y the faded yellow tones are a lot more believable than the sands my local hobby stores stock. It contrasts really well with the armour of the BA. The burnt metal on the Multimelta Eradicator looks great, my own efforts never turn out so well! Unfortunately for some reason I can't zoom in on the pictures, I have a new pad, which is a shame because I really wanted a closer look at your Captain. Great work so far, and keep it up!

Paladin777 Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 Thank you for your kind words! The 'sand' (Armageddon dunes Technical paint) I use is actually darker than that too. I dry brush Tyrant Skull over it to lighten it up and add color texture. I got the recipe from then Citadel color app so I can only take limited credit.

Majkhel Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) Oooooh, you actually painted those lightning symbols! I tried once and... let's just say it didn't meet my expectations Edited April 11, 2022 by Majkhel Paladin777 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373170-paladin777s-third-company/#findComment-5814561 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin777 Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) The lightning bolts came out... ok. Better than I expected actually, but not as good as they could have. Still, I'm fine with it.

BloodyB Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I applaud the patience for painting the little lightning bolts. They look good, but I can never do them well, at least not on the kneepads. I keep my lightning on the front wheel mounting, I can't do them that small with my tired old peepers. Looking forward to some termies!

Paladin777 Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) Well, I intended for this to be my May entry for the 12 Days of Hobby, but I kinda jumped the gun and got them done a bit early! And yeah, it's definitely not Third Company too... but I had a good time painting them and can't wait to see them on the tabletop!

Paladin777 Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) I just found out that incursers are considered close support today, so my 3rd company roster is now a bit out of whack I can help wondering what my last two squads should be. They're supposed to be battle line squads. This is the roster so far. One check means I own it, two checks means they're complete and painted. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm certainly open to hearing them.

Paladin777 Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 Yay! The site's back up!!! I've got another model for the 3rd company to share, and it's a real chonky boy! I present my Captain in Gravis Armor! In other news, my wife (who has been getting more involved in my hobbying lately) said that I should paint something green, to which I said that I don't have a green army! suffice to say that when your wife tells you to buy a new army so you can paint it green, you say "yes dear!" So the rest of the months of the year will be split evenly between my third company and filthy xenos (Biel Tan craftworld Aeldari), but I absolutely still intend to carry on with the twelve months of hobby, you guys will only see half of the progress here.

Xenith Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Oh yea, I just mean technically - it can be difficult colour matching between flat paint on a plastic surface and paint drybrushed over texture, so good work still!

Thanks. I appreciate the compliment. I just finished a trio of windriders for my November project, and I think I'm gonna paint a regular dreadnaught for December. I've got two in primer, and I figure the holidays are going to cut into my hobby time, so doing a single model is probably for the best. It's also needed to complete the Demi-company!
