Khulu Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Greetings. I've been working a lot lately on growing my Heresy armies, so I thought I ought to start keeping track of some of that. I started Heresy (sort of) back in 2018-2019 with what was supposed to be a Thousand Sons army that could be used in 40k and 30k both. That didn't pan out very well and I eventually lost interest in TS as a 40k army and sold them off, but couldn't bring myself to sell all the HH elements. When 2e dropped I picked up the box and a few other things to start Sons of Horus but was trying to paint them with contrast and didn't like the results so I shelved most of it. Then last spring I decided to repurpose what I could into White Scars, and have been slowly working on them since. With the 3e boxset I've been adding to my TS again to try to get both legions ready to play bigger games. A big part of what I love most in HH is the kitbashing, so I took some quick pics of some HQs I've put together. Nothing crazy but I am pretty happy with them. The White Scars: Stormseers Master of Signals Centurions, probably And some Thousand Sons: Not sure exactly what these guys will be yet I've played 2 smaller games (1500pts) so far, but we've been making bigger lists so next game will probably be bigger.

Shard of Magnus Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 The Khenetai are looking good. How are you planning to do the red? I’ve seen several approaches in online guides (starting with gold base, not using metallics, etc) and I’m always interested in seeing how people paint the thousand sons. Visually, they are one of my favorite legions.

Visually, they are one of my favorite legions. Good question. I tried before the Tamiya clear method over gold and found it very difficult to work with, so I'm not doing that. I tried a few red metallics (AP has one, and TurboDorks Redrum) but didn't feel they were vibrant enough. So right now the forerunner is AP speedpaint over gold. I think the color I liked best was Carmine Dragon W.A.Rorie 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386545-khulus-heresy/#findComment-6129182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
W.A.Rorie Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 I agree the Tamiya clear is tough to work with and very sticky too. Carmine Dragon is a nice red. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386545-khulus-heresy/#findComment-6129195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttoVonAwesome Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Blood angels red contrast works too if you dilute it. Airbrush or Contrast medium and wash. I did it with some 40k Word bearers and it took about 2-3 coats to get it nice. Haven't tried army painter speed paints will be cool to see.

Khulu Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 (edited) Some progress on a few units this weekend. Khenetai: Finished the second half of the unit. Leviathans: The one on the right had traitor stuff on it I'm removing. Still need to finish filling in the eye of Horus on the codpiece and then build arms for the left. Right is magnetized but I need to print some guns for it. Mounted centurion/praetor/whatever Still needs the main guns magnetized. Decent progress considering how busy this week has been, bit I need to take pictures of the stuff I've painted so far.

Khulu Posted September 10 Author Share Posted September 10 Made some progress on my Deredeo: Just basing and transfers left. I am considering the lightning as a brotherhood symbol. I was doing a bird but it was hard to do right across a whole unit so lightning might be easier.
