Midnightmare Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 Thanks for the comment tyrannosaurus, I suppose I best update then! I haven’t been up to much at all recently, I did however finish my Librarian Draqo:- http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04231.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04230.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04229.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04228.jpg Also a pip of my Stormraven, not the best pictures but you get the idea. Loads still to do! http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04232.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04234.jpg The reason for this threads apparent inactivity? Well, apart from laziness, I am working on something else to.

Quixus Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Wow he is tall. looks much better than the normal model too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonkin Arenis Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I can't like your new post enough. Your version of Abbadon is absolutely magnificent, even at this stage! But I can't decide whether using Forge World's Heresy-era Abbadon is cheating or a stroke of genius! Please, may we see more of him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathspectersgt7 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 The front hatch on that Storm Raven Rocks, Now have one of your Eaters tearing Abbies throat out!!!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 Wow he is tall. looks much better than the normal model too. Thanks! He big, but he da boss!! Got to use his base as I will finish the whole diorama with Loken (who will actually be converted to represent a certain Blood Angel chaplain) I can't like your new post enough. Your version of Abbadon is absolutely magnificent, even at this stage! But I can't decide whether using Forge World's Heresy-era Abbadon is cheating or a stroke of genius! Please, may we see more of him? Here you go (LINKY) so as to not clutter up my Flesh Eaters thread with them damned dirty traitors! But yeh, I would say cheating! Abby has always been one of my favourite characters in the 40k universe, and there has been much more badass fluff about him recently. Looking forward to The Talon of Horus Thanks for the comment The front hatch on that Storm Raven Rocks, Now have one of your Eaters tearing Abbies throat out!!!. Thanks! Needs a little tidying up (and weathering). This blog will prolly be more on the painting side for a while as I get stuck into the Black Legion, although I do have some Sanguinary Gaurd to post when I get a chance and the light is good (I am never home when it is and it doesn't last long at this time of year here .

fivepointedstar Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Awesome work as normal. That Storm Raven needs some Flesh Eater flare thou. The maw painting looks nice, but maybe a racing stripe to tidy in with the FE armor color scheme. Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Wow, that Abbaddon is pretty fabulous- good idea to use the forgeworld model as the basis. Can we get some more pics with different angles? A rear shot for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kronus Stormbringer Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I agree, Abbaddon is great, looking forward to seeing more of him in paint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the comments guys, glad you like Here you go for more pics of Mr Abaddon (LINKY) Awesome work as normal. That Storm Raven needs some Flesh Eater flare thou. The maw painting looks nice, but maybe a racing stripe to tidy in with the FE armor color scheme. Good ideas as ever by DK2K; I was thinking on the wings? Rather than down the hull as none of my other vehicles have these (and that would obviously be a lot harder to pull off lol) Cheers all Midnight EDIT - Because I can mask the wings off!!

Midnightmare Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) Ta very muchly Bio and Sanguine_Knight Just to prove I have been working on the baddest vampires in the galaxy, progress! Not the 'Raven as it is still not done, but Valek's personal guardians, the Sanguinary Guard:- McFisting.... http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04527.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04528.jpg Standard Bearer..... http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04534.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04536.jpg Choppy Doodz..... http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04533.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04532.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04529.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC04531.jpg I was planning on adding wings to their heads but am struggling to find ones that fit with the jump packs, the DA vet ones are to big They still need a bit of GS work (one of the axemen has a bionic eye in need of surgery). A few spikes and chains and they are done; I have tried to convey a wild rage whilst still looking like loyalists. ....and no, I will not use the j/p wings out of the box.

Grizzly_bear Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Looking great, love Mcfisting. But the standard bearer to me looks like he's just been shot in the neck....I can see what kind of pose you are going for but he looks like he's leaning too much like something's hit him from his right or just infront of him from the right ..... If that makes sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 I see what you mean with him, I am aiming for the other squad members charging around him, with him slightly raised in a halo of light clutching the ancient Chapter Banner, to the sound of sweet harp music and singing angels He is quite well glued/pinned so I may not be able to change him too much. especially the head. I will try to get him from a better angle tomorrow but the light is fading to much now. Cheers! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly_bear Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I hate to seem I'm putting your work down as you along with a few others have been a massive source of inspiration to both my crimson fists and now my scythes. But yeah. I look forward to seeing the squad completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricPaladin Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 These are in-freaking-credible. How did you manage to wipe the Blood Angels iconography from the banner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockwithaticket Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Fethin sweet, those 'zerker heads look great filed down; certainly angry! Love the dynamism of the poses.Electric Paladin - I believe it's the regular command squad banner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannosaurus Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Superb posing and kitbashing - can't wait to see them painted. This is still my favourite WIP on any 40k forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah. I look forward to seeing the squad completed Not at all, comment and criticism my friend! @ ElectricPaladin - yep it is just the command squad banner as sockwithaticket says; you can see the wrist is not artificer style of the Sanguiary Guard. Means you have to put the Glaive Encarmine in his left hand though, but it makes it easier for successor Chapters, linke maybe the Knights of Blood hint, hint ;) @ sockwithaticket - thanks, I did try to get the whole 'angry veteran marine' thing coming at ya! @ tyrannosaurus - high praise indeed, thanks matey!

Biohazard Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Looking great buddy, I have to say Im not too keen on McFistings head atm but Ill wait till hes painted to fully decide. ;) As for the Standard bearer if you used superglue to build him, stick him in the freezer for a couple of hours. Its worked for me a few times. Cant wait to see more progress, I cant decide which of your logs Im more excited about as I LOVE these guys but I also love the idea of you doing Traitors.

fivepointedstar Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I really dig the use of the FW khorne head ( de-bunnyfied of course). I like the standard bearers pose. He looks more proud than getting shot in the neck. One thought thou maybe re angle his head so he is facing the sword tip. Like he's landing, and stabbing an enemy, and mid way to planting the banner in the ground to rip something up. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
