Don't let the blues get you down-- stay active on the boards here until you feel up to getting going again. I am very impressed so far and will wait patiently for more updates!

Ulther Drakk Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Wow looking good! I hear you on the down mood i'm trying to get back into converting after not touching a mini in 9 months. Love what you have done so far. Its your work that is making me dust off the remains of my Black Dragons to start working on them again after 5 years.

gloc Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 Sorry, sill haven't gotten around to painting. Working on a count-as Vulkan He'Stan: I gave him Modified Mk8 Errant armor, and tried to do some truescaling. His design is based on the dragoon class in final fantasy. not sure what details i should add on the right arm and shoulder, any suggestions would be appreciated. http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q244/omega_mog/vulkan-wip_zps1e489d1d.jpg And I also need some suggestions on what to do for the bases on these, im having a hard time figuring out a theme, desert? swamp? wasteland? never did bases before either, not sure the best way to go about doing it.

Kriegsmacht Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Kain!!! Sweet conversion of your He'Stan counts-as. Be cool to see him painted like Kain maybe as a really rally dark blue. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 That's a hell of a mini. What did you use to make the barrels on the back of the power fist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassWave Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 That's some wicked conversion work you have there sir! I love the dread and vulkan. Can't say that I like the idea of a bare armed terminator, but that's down to tastes. As for basing, why not a ruined city? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Barbarus Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 You can use the new GW technical paint Agrellan Earth and some grass tufts to make some cool bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Guy Matt Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yeah that He'stan counts-as is cool. I'd like to see a closer shot of the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelPaladin Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 This is my first time seeing this thread, there is some really great stuff in here! I really want to see how that Dread turned out. This will certainly be one of the most interesting armies on the tabletop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undecideded Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Great work you're doing here. That dread looks incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloc Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 The right arm looked plain so i experimented with adding spikes on the forearms, legs, and shoulder (not bone spikes, just batman-forearms type spikes) to sorta look like a dragon's back, but im not fully sold on the shoulder spikes. I think they might distract from the head-wings, and those are more important, i just didn't like seeing plain shoulders on a high-ranking guy. thoughts? http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q244/omega_mog/dragoon2_zps72b32742.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greendestiny Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Just wanted to say this looks great. I love this chapter's look and feel. Also as a side note. I have quite a bit of experience casting my own shoulder pads with two part resin if you need a little help there just message me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Guy Matt Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Good shot. The head looks very cool. Looking forward to seeing him painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Good stuff in this thread, the dreadnought flamer is my personal favorite though- it radiates awesome. And I also need some suggestions on what to do for the bases on these, im having a hard time figuring out a theme, desert? swamp? wasteland? I vote swamp. I've never seen a swamp based army, and it would certainly contribute to the uniqueness of this force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Mustard Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I really like the direction you're going into Maybe because I live in China anything dragon looks cool Really like the character. I kinda prefer without the extra spikes He looks a litle manga style that is quite refreshing solid execution on the green stuff the gauntlet flamer is a brilliant idea Want to see more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloc Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hey, I painted a guy! (finally) http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q244/omega_mog/termie1_zpscded449c.jpghttp://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q244/omega_mog/icon_zps743e67e9.jpg Here is Brother Raphael, I really liked the black templars black painting reference that was linked earlier in this thread, but I thought it looked over highlighted and looked a little like grey templars, I tried my best to keep this guy "black", I also attempted to make the eyes, and other lights glow. guides I saw online seemed to really overdo it, and I tried to keep it subtle. Also the push moulds I made for the custom shoulder seemed to would out great. I think I did pretty good for my first guy. http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q244/omega_mog/mistles_zps15cd09c5.jpg I also did this nameless marine to test out an "alternate" black, instead of just painting with greys I used a dark teal/blue to keep it more saturated. http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q244/omega_mog/colour-tests_zps2ff44262.jpg here is a comparison between the greyblack and the blueblack, I think I'm leaning toward the grey black. The blueblack almost looks Alpha Legion-y. Im not sure what color to paint the crux terminatus or the little cables (like on his feet), also as you can see still haven't decided on basing, I was thinking of using that new dry cracked earth paint from GW and set them in a dusty dead wasteland. Thoughts? I was so scared to paint them, I made the mistake of using tap water to thin the paints, appearance that's a no-no, we'll see if I get better results with distilled water, also I want to try out vallejo paints. again, sorry about how crappy the phone photos are.
