O.o As much as it pains me to say it, the Baneblade is also eighteen years old, so there's probably some New Kit Inflation going on. I only mention it because if I had to suffer the Psychic Damage of knowing that, so do others. Anyway, here's the obligatory "studio paint their own Fellblades" article.

Matcap86 Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Man I was hoping some different paint schemes might turn me around, but the changes they made to the kit are definitely a downgrade for me. Don't think I'll be picking this one up.

The Praetorian of Inwit Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 It looks so good in Imperial Fist colours. The best colours of the best Legion (not an opinion, just a fact). I might get two. Is £130 a lot of money - yes. Is it worth it (to me) - yes.

It possibly has the price increase already baked in, as it comes into effect early October, around the time the kit will hit the stores.

Joe Posted Tuesday at 08:53 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:53 PM Can't recall the old recipe, but Contrast through an airbrush over a gold primer tends to be the way to achieve that these days. phandaal 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385962-plastic-fellblade-super-heavy-tank/page/9/#findComment-6132580 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was supposedly the recipe back when you could e-mail them to ask: Quote Metallic Scheme: It is black undercoat, airbrush with Iron hands FW paint leaving the lower parts of the armour plates black, airbrush upper parts of the armour plates with runefang steel as a highlight. Then a few thinned layers of clear red are airbrushed all over, waiting for the previous layer to dry before applying the next (so it would be useful to paint large batches of marines at the same time). Shade the recesses with nuln oil and then weather the edges with runefang steel. The gold is retributor gold, shaded with seraphim sepia and highlighted with runefang steel. The brass is runelord brass, shaded with seraphim sepia. The eyes are painted black, single line in the centre with white and then washed with FW clear green paint. The white on the bolters and legion icon is celestra grey, ulthuan grey and then white highlights. The hollow tactical arrow is from the Iron Warriors transfer sheet. The 'clear red' in this case probably being Tamiya Clear Red or Angron Red, but as Joe says you can get a similar effect with Contrast paints these days (Duncan has a good tutorial for it): Edited Tuesday at 09:06 PM by Lord Marshal skylerboodie, Interrogator Stobz and phandaal 2 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385962-plastic-fellblade-super-heavy-tank/page/9/#findComment-6132583 Share on other sites More sharing options...
beefeb Posted Wednesday at 07:05 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 07:05 AM Nope....still not feeling the love for this tank. The bolter sponsons are quite simply laughable....lie a really poor and amateurish photoshop cut and paste job. The laser destroyer sponsons are slightly better certainly, but theres too many other niggly bits i cant stand. The Baneblade is a far superior kit and may if rumours are correct, cost less.

DarkMark Posted yesterday at 05:39 PM Share Posted yesterday at 05:39 PM So, 160€. Not ghastly though I didn't think it would be any cheaper, tbh.

The Praetorian of Inwit Posted yesterday at 06:09 PM Share Posted yesterday at 06:09 PM Beautiful tank. The Heavy Bolters look great to me. Warhammer is not the setting for realistic design. I'll probably get 3. In the colours of the VIIth they will look beautiful.

W.A.Rorie Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago I am getting one for my Death Guard. But I have some plans for it, as it is the center piece for them.

Elzender Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago For my fellow European fraters, goblintrader (Spanish website) is doing a 25% discount on the fellblade pre-order just this weekend, and they have free shipping in continental Europe (not sure if UK as well) starting at 150€, so if any madlad wants to order multiple or grab some assault squads or additional tanks with it, it's a nice way to save a couple bucks. skylerboodie 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385962-plastic-fellblade-super-heavy-tank/page/9/#findComment-6133043 Share on other sites More sharing options...
