Boc's... not Chaos? (Scouts and characters WIP)

[YannTheMad]

Looking great so far ^^ 

I'm really eager to see the completed Asmodai. Red robes look badass.

As for the liquid masking, this thing looks really hard to use :O

Not remotely related, but my kids have a wooden car derby event this week

 

I present to you my Golden Daemon 2025 submission 

 

 

if i don't win the whole system is rigged

 

Tried convincing my kid that it needed grots and orky bits but he said no. I'm still going to write "boomdakka snazzwagon" on the bottom. I've never done a commission before, I'm thinking this should easily be like $200, yeah?

I was going to say it bore a resemblance to the Ork submarine that appeared in (I think) one of the Third War for Armageddon battle reports, but it would appear my memory is playing tricks son me ... but yes, add a Grot to it  

 

(also a reminder to keep it 40K )

It's a snazzwagon!

 

Okay... i guess I'll relent and post a progress pic of Asmodai...

 

 

Tonight I'll finish up the sword, do a bit more work on the base (local guys have given me a few pointers to make it less boring), then add the washes to clean off tomorrow

[Firedrake Cordova]

That red looks good on the large expanse of robes  

[Boc]

At the oil wash stage on Asmodai, the Ancient, and the inceptors. Going to halve the inceptors to finish half with Asmodai and the other half with the chaplain, whose crozius and bolter I still need to get some work in on. 

 

A progress pic of the Ancient, whose robe still isn't great, but, compared to this, is pristine lol

I love them so much you have no idea. Possible tease for some upcoming Space Sharks? 

[Firedrake Cordova]

The ancient's coming along nicely.  

 

Unfortunately, you can see where the repair to his robes has been done (it doesn't help that the golden/brass belt ornament is literally pointing to it ), but I assume this will get a blob of "strategic snow" to cover up the thicker paint near the hem  

[Boc]

Aaaaand he's done!

 

Basing the BG Ancient and working on smoke plumes on the inceptors, and I think assembling Inner Circle Companions next!

 

 

 

Edit: Just finished up the Bladeguard Ancient so figured I'd just add him on here. 5x inceptors will be done tomorrow, the last 3 and the chaplain hopefully by Monday

Brilliant! I think the sword blade is particularly impressive and the purity seals on both models are very well done too.

[Firedrake Cordova]

As @Pearson73 says, the sword blade came out very nicely

[YannTheMad]

Asmodai looks great ^^ Very nice non-metalic on the sword

Love the helmet choice for the ancient, really tie him as a dark angel

[Boc]

Been a bit of a slow week, but finally got the motivation tonight to get out the airbrush and go brrrrr

 

Right now, working on Belial (helmets > bare heads)

 

Captain with shield of awesome

 

A possible proxy for Ezekiel

 

and a whole bunch of scouts. With their bare heads

 

Stupid, stupid bare heads. THIS IS A WAR ZONE, WEAR SOME PROTECTIVE GEAR. Also have I mentioned I don't like painting faces?

 

[Firedrake Cordova]

Completely agree with you on the bare heads - given the rest of the model is in thick armour, it just feels "odd". (that absolutely has nothing to do with the fact I can't paint human eyes...)

[YannTheMad]

Captain looks awesome ideed ^^

Bare head = bad.

Helmet are the first thing you would equip any militaries.
