The_Chaplain Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 "A pile of plastic, resin and putty is currently on my table waiting to be transformed into a vindicator. Oh yes, there will be blood..." But hey, think of the sheer amounts of enemies that bad boy will destroy on the tabletop! That's gotta be worth a pinto or two, eh? :rolleyes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85105-wings-of-retribution-vindicator-finished/page/4/#findComment-1136025 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incendium Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Woohoo update! I love that librarian, as said before the tabard looks flawless, it really has some movement to it, and the paint job is superb. Congrats on reaching that first 1K! Quite an achievement.

Terminus Est Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Aaaargh! I finally figured out what was wrong with them and Cigaro jumps in first. (yes, i feel the feet are too small as well) I especially love the tactical marine with the studded shoulder pad. He looks great Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85105-wings-of-retribution-vindicator-finished/page/4/#findComment-1136539 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mega_marines Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I dont mean to be a bother, but what are materials you use made of? They look very solid. :( I love 'em.

Master_Aerethos Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 So, do I ever say anything other than you have fantastic miniatures? No. Will it change right now? No. Still amazing, and my favorite is still the assault marine just left of the Chaplain. Master_Aerethos P.S. Congrats on hitting 1K!!!

Brother Monaco Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Just...wow. If I saw a company of Marines that looked like THAT I would just crap myself and get it over with ;) Now if only we had a tutorial that tells us how to make Marines exactly like this...

maelis Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 I guess I'll have to do something like a tutorial then. Maybe a very detailed article about creating the first tactical marine of the second squad (after the vindy).. The small feet were because of my own lazyness at first, since I do have a mold for bigger feet but it was just easier to chop them off from the gw-ones. Then I kinda got used to the plastic feet and now like them :s Thanks for the replies, everyone of them makes me feel like I should make more marines more quickly, which is the point of this blog :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85105-wings-of-retribution-vindicator-finished/page/4/#findComment-1137274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
maelis Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 So Fresh And So Green. The Vindicator's about to be finished! For those of you interested in it's size: http://www.elisanet.fi/toni.sokura/tank.jpg Yes, it has been the ultimate pain in the ass to build, and even the painting reminded me again how badly the green actually covers, but now the wrost part is over. With all the basic colors painted there's only the fun left; weathering and detailing. When I talked about plastic, resin and blood I was more right that I would've wanted to. During the building process two of my fingers were injured and several eyelashes were torn out because of super glue in my eye. Oh yes, there was blood. But here it is, in it's unweathered, undetailed glory: http://www.elisanet.fi/toni.sokura/vindifresh.JPG The dozer blade is still a problem, while the weathering on that one really looks good to me, the shade of green is very different from everything else in my army. Should I repaint it or leave it be? Forgot to say: it will be 100% ready within 48 hours Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85105-wings-of-retribution-vindicator-finished/page/4/#findComment-1159426 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypher_zero Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Leave it. It looks good as is and makes it stand out a bit from the rest of your army without going overboard. Keep up the great work, your marines are awesome; and this is coming from a heretic. cypher *grumble*Frickin follwers of the corpse-god */grumble* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85105-wings-of-retribution-vindicator-finished/page/4/#findComment-1159592 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminatorinhell Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 ok I LOVE THE LIBRAIRIAN (in a model appreciating way :wub: ) and I think I might try and scale one of my commanders to make him look tough. I like the vindi and LS too Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85105-wings-of-retribution-vindicator-finished/page/4/#findComment-1160026 Share on other sites More sharing options...
