Tzen Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 I'll post a few pics tomorrow of him from different angles. As for how many parts, I honestly have no idea. I was given the model as is to paint. And I agree, I am very lucky. I really can't stress how great these minis are. Triszin 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 If anyone can make it work, you can Tzen. The paint job is already looking amazing. :tu: Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 I am gonna do my best! I don't have much time to paint him, but if I can do a fairly decent job over all I will be happy. Gives me chance to practice before I do my own! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sagentus Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Bet you feel honoured and it also shows they like your painting style ;) I have no doubt that you'll do the model justice! and your other marines are coming on nicely too!

Tzen Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 I'd love to have got some more time on this guy to go to town on him, but when I get my own version from the amazing new boxed set I am pretty certain I will revisit this model. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/cprim1.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/cprim2.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/cprim3.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/cprim4.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/cprim5.jpg These guys are a joy to paint. You need to buy these just for the sake of painting them. Race Bannon, Kizzdougs, Sagentus and 7 others 10 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathspectersgt7 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) You did a great job on that Butt ugly Model Mate . Just not a fan of that Model but you did it justice. Edited May 26, 2017 by deathspectersgt7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 A fantastic paint job on an award model. I love the super precise highlights on the armour and the cloak looks fantastic too :tu: Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really don't like these models? :O Hvae you popped into your local GW to have a look at them in the flesh? I honestly think they are amazing. I wont be doing normal marines at all when possible cos of these! :D A fantastic paint job on an award model. I love the super precise highlights on the armour and the cloak looks fantastic too Thanks man. There really is loads more I could do, there is loads that's been rushed here but yeah. A mix of deadline plus loads of other stuff to paint. I am determined to spend some time on a display model some time soon. All these army painting is getting annoying!

Triszin Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 its not the model its self, its the posing. looks like this marine has a beer belly =/ I'll wait for the full multipart kits later this year. Still an amazing paint job Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still an amazing paint job That's cool. I quite like the "beer belly". It seems to be inspired by Tau tech (I don't know specifically what - but it seems Tau ish.). I personally love the feet though. This armour seems super heavy. I can hear it stomping along really loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am determined to spend some time on a display model some time soon. All these army painting is getting annoying! Hahaha, well your 'rushed' effort looks pretty amazing! Are you going to be painting anymore Primaris Marines before the release date? I'll look forward to seeing you work on some more display minis :) Personally I'm not a big fan of the Primaris Marine aesthetic (the Inceptors are some of the most terrible GW minis that I've seen in a longtime). I haven't seen them in person yet, so I'm only going off what I've seen online. I love their scale, but I'm not a fan of the design. I'd be much happier if GW had just released a larger scale alternative of the regular Space Marine design. The Captain model in particular looks 'awkward'. The abdomen looks too long, the legs look too short, the torso is twisted in a strange way, and it looks like he is going to fall over forwards. Some of the 'regular' Primaris Marines look a bit better and once they're released in multi-part kits we'll be able to avoid 'awkward' poses. I'll see if I can get down to my local GW and see them in person tomorrow. Maybe I'll change my mind :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 For the record, I am cool with people not liking them. I just love em. So yeah! Just surprised they aren't an instant hit for everyone. I love the new Jump pack chaps. I will very likely do an army of the jump pack fellas! :D I do want to do a new Word Bearers army for the new 40k. I want to do The Anointed (Word Bearers Terminators) with robes and all that cool junk. Supported by Daemon Engines. So basically a Khorne Lord of Skulls and my Maulerfiends and all that crazy daemonic goodness! :D Biohazard 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Love the paintjob. Personally I like the regular tactical primaris, I'm planning to convert some to count-as regular astartes, switching a few of the weapons, heads, pads and see what else can be changed. But the jump marines are just horrible. Anyways, looking forward to seeing those anointed, sounds like a cool idea. Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREY88 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Great job! I plan to turn mine into a techmarine with that heavy armor! Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triszin Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 hey tzen, only other angle i havent seen is a angled view that shows the connector joint between the hood and the back pack. no worries if you don't post it, was just curious Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 That was a rushed job? With perhaps the exception of the missing decals, that is the sort of model I'd expect to see in White Dwarf, really. Amazing job, brother. :tu: Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 Well the sword is boring and the edge highlights are a bit ropey. Not badly painted, just had to get it done! I don't have the mini anymore, so can't take any more pics. Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Word Bearers were a big inspiration for me when I was working on my own CSM army, so I'm looking forward to seeing your new Word Bearers, especially the Anointed! :tu: I got a chance to see the Primaris Marines in the flesh today at my local GW and my opinion of them hasn't changed. The Nurgle Lord will make a fantastic Typhus conversion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a new Typhus model. I don't know anything, not a rumour monger by any stretch of the imagination. But I reckon we will see more nurgle models. At least you can say you want to see the models before making your mins up. That's more than most do. And I am seriously looking forward to revisiting my Word Bearers. It's been waaaay too long. Kizzdougs 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 I have finished the Tactical Squad! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/3rdultrasquad.jpg I still need to finish the bases, but some more flock on there and all that, but they are finally complete.

Crizza Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 So, how did you get your hands on that Primaris Captain?Are you working for GW or what?Great job, I only wish the Tacticus Armor would be a little more... edgy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 I only painted the model, not mine! All stores got some of the new models early to show customers! :) I have completed my Space Marine Captain. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/capt1.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/capt2.jpg I need to finish the base (as always!) but the model is done. This is a great model, it's a bit of a shame I have rushed him. However I am pretty taken by the new Primaris marines. So my enthusiasm is a little low for "normal" marines. deathspectersgt7 and Olis 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
