Backlog Busting - NMM World Eaters

[The Pounder]

I’ve never done nmm but it’s looking good!

 

As far as brushes go, Winsor and Newton Series 7 are good as are Golden Maple. In my experience they last a long time as long as you’re gentle with them!

If you like the size 1 W&N, then a size 0 and 00 would do great for detail work. Go with the best. ;)

W&N it is then, thanks gents :)

 

In a pivot to my first love, my Luna Wolves, I’ve got some progress on my Command Squad - The Lieutenant and Apothecary are coming along nicely and the Terminator is pretty much done, minus the base and powder.

The mixed armour mark Command Squad Marines look great. Really inspiring stuff, especially the work on the Mark IV legs. How did you make that Auspex bit on the Apothecary?

Thanks!! They’re both just chopped up intercessors - I don’t pay extra for characters now, I just make myself suffer through  the conversion work.

The backpack/narthecium is from Kromlech I believe and the left arm is actually just one of the old HH bolter arms from when you slotted the bolter on top of the outstretched palm. I just chucked an auspex there instead. I found the unpainted version:

That sort of kitbash and conversion work is the best. I strive to do the same, I was working on a Librarian made out of one of the starter Assault Intercessors. I still need to finish resculpting his armour so he's less recognizable as just an Intercessor.

100% but it is so time consuming haah

Test model completed now I’m pretty chuffed, I think it might be a bit too constrasty/vivid but I can tone that down a bit and probably better paint selection will fix that.

Love the quality of red and the brass youve achieved!

[The Pounder]

Agreed, the red is so vibrant, outstanding.

 

Back on the conversions, time very well spent!
