@ Mordian 7th: Very impressive stuff... I think the red is spot on!

@Semper - Do you mean the EC unqique rite of war? Because if you do, it doesn't disallow all terminators, just Cataprachtii (because they have slow and purposeful), and Phoenix Guard have Tartaros...

Actually no, I mean the Angels' Wrath from Betrayal.

Thallax Cohort - really looking forward to painting these up.  I think I'm going to go with a Martian red scheme to match my Castallax.  We'll see.

Thinking hard about the next vow.  My knight-in-progress will make the list of course.  I have an FW wishlist cooking - just reluctant based on that 7th edition might bring to the game.

 

More soon - and congrats to all the progress in the thread.  The forum has a lot to be proud of.  Cheers, -OMG

Firstly thanks for the great comments guys..much appreciated

@Beytrayer..the brass recipie is..vallejo model air bright brass..light wash of agrax earthshade, heavy round rivets..then pick out rivets and sharp edges with vma bright brass..thats it!

 

@omg..all looking sweet mate..cant wait to see the finished articles..a quick question. .do the wounded marines on ferrus base come separately?

 

Sooooooo much talent on this thread! So nice seeing such great painted forgeworld models in one place!

 @omg..all looking sweet mate..cant wait to see the finished articles..a quick question. .do the wounded marines on ferrus base come separately?

 

Sadly no - in this case they come affixed on the scenic base attachments.  I wish that FW would sell the primarch bases separately.  For that matter, I wish FW would release an HH basing kit or at least a set of marine casualties.  I have lots of other items on my wishlist if anyone from FW is reading this.  How about a set of non-legion specific marine vets in all the different armor variants?  I'd buy those in an instant.

Yeah ... Makes me a bit nervous as I can knock out a fair old amount of stuff but the stuff on hear makes mine look rubbish.

[Captain Semper]

OMG: Beautiful... :cry: Very interesting take on the EC colours... very different to everything I've seen before. I think ECs should be your new project!

These are quickly turning into the best XV Legion models I've ever seen. Are these your first guys, or do you have more warriors of the Sons? If so, I'd love to see the rest of your army.  :)

[GhostMalone]

Morison is the thousand sons!

I was very close to doing EC's before Massacre came out and then the Xth won me over. But what else could be the best complement to an IH army but a loyal EC army? Not that a few fallen units might find their way into the ranks...

Early work

Possibly a bit dark at the moment.

Thanks very much! I've recently done up some Prospero Spireguard, and a few vehicles for the current Ksons effort, and I'd also done another full army a couple years back that I'd ended up selling. I'll admit that I regretted selling it immensely and so now I'm doing this new version of the army!

Getting there

That mkIV apothecary would be a nice Talos

[Cheddybob]

Just about finished the paint on the first Medusa. Cleaning up some edges and what have you and she'll be done and ready to drop some phosphex on unsuspecting loyalists. =D

And the crew... Don't want to forget them.

I may just use that name, but I think Talos was of the 10th Company right?

 

Just need to base them

Yes, Talos was Apothecary turned Prophet turned Warband Leader of the Tenth Company, which would later be known as the Warband of the Broken Aquila.

 

However, nothing says that it was an unique Nostraman name, so a little tinkering here and there, or none at all, and you can use it. Taalos. Ta'los. Tal'os. Tal's. Twinkles.

[Scribe]

All will fall before the might of the Pantheon...but man you guys are all doing some fine work over here!

[Daemon2027]

Armond, your not helping me fight the desire to paint some Night Lords. Must finish my vow, must finish my vow....

Some awesome minis here keep it up gents (and any rogue gentettes who have lost their way and ended up here)!

Does actually making the model count as progress? Otherwise I'm still firmly at square 1! I made an arm and a helmet crest yesterday though ^^

Edit rather than additional post: Damn Nehekhare...casually pumping out 3 dreads!
