Warhammer 40,000: Imperium Community Thread


Recommended Posts

Imperium.png

 

With Imperium having just become available in Australia, and the arrival of my first delivery, I'm pretty keen to get cracking on with the models.

I'd like this thread to be a source of inspiration and assistance to the community at large, where we all share our progress, colour schemes, and modelling as the collection grows into Armies.

Please feel free to share your own progress and ask any questions you like here.

I’m in the USA and we’re a bit ahead of you but behind the UK. I’ve been working on my chapter marines, with a lot of filing off of ultramarines iconography on the first few kits and my partner is doing the Necrons. I think the next pack will be our first with a new faction, with some mechanicus models.

I'm in the US and just received issues 15-19, so not too far ahead. As for painting, I'm way behind. Just added these to my 12 Months Challenge:

I've got to get my setting sorted out for my iPhone. My desk lamps blow out the highlights pretty badly.

So, I am no stranger to The Royal Warden model, having painted Sautekh ans Szarekhan as commissions, and a third one for a friends Indomitus box as a custom Dynasty,

So, having watched several Youtubes covering the newest Congtrast expansion, I liked the look of Luxion Purple and wanted to give it a go, the model turned out ok, but I'm not sold on Luxion and I think I'd get better results from traditional paints to get the colour I have in my mind.

I hear you there!, I'm working on those assault Intercessors now (as White Scars) and i've been steadily shaving off those Ultra symbols :sweat:... 

Nice paint jobs there :thumbsup:

And I am officially caught up with the marines! Just need to decide how/who will be doing the terrain and mechanicus and the other half is batching the necrons now with a new paint scheme.

I've not been idle, but a certain Necron commission was QUITE the time-hog....anyways, I've got the first of the three Assault Intercessors, with the remaining two about 2hrs of work each from being done,

I also received my second Imperium delivery and some conversion inspiration struck....

@Brother Argent Really? That's how GW supplies the model though? 

Yes, but it is an exclusive model- there is currently no way to give a Primaris Captain a plasma pistol and power sword. The only option for plasma pistol currently is with a power fist, and GW hasn't given out an updated datasheet for the Imperium Captain (like they did when the new Gravis Captain with multiple options came out), So you either use the Imperium Cpt as plasma pistol/powerfist or master-crafted powersword/bolt pistol with either a MC auto bolt rifle or MC stalker bolt rifle (or a special issue bolt carbine if you are DA).

Or if you are lucky to have a very casual group like me you can field him as is
