+++E Tenebrae Lux IV - Horus Heresy Strategium+++


Recommended Posts

Well, just checked the weather for this afternoon. Looks like around the time I get home, there'll be an hour window of low humidity so I can get Dracos, Rhy'tan and the boys a matte coat so I can show 'em off. Fingers crossed!

@kizzdougs - I'm honestly very impressed by that custode. I usually like your painting but I think you've blown it out of the water with that simple and clean conversion. Such an intelligent use of pieces from several ranges make for a very effective presentation.

 

I've seen a few conversions with the Storm Wardens from AOS but none of them really hit the mark the same way this one does. Cant wait to see it all painted up.

Wow guys, I am very impressed by all of you.

The quality of the models posted in this topic is amazingly high!

 

I have almost finished my vow, just four outriders missing.

Exam day is approaching, so no painting this week...

But I'm confident I can get them done before august.

Well boys and girls were getting closer to the end; I'll be leaving australia in 1 week and be coming to Europe so I'd love to see everyone push ahead.

 

Remember if we win I get inked if not we will have to await next etl

Well, let's see if we can get Kurama one step closer to the needle, hmm?..

My second and (sadly, due to excessive humidity this summer) final vow for this ETL is now complete.

Nomus Rhy'tan, Cassian Dracos, and the Dreadheads...

Note the lack of Tyranid honours on Mr. Vaughn.

The 'paint to blend' technique for white-paper decals can be seen (or not seen) on the Unification logo on the missile launcher.

Here, Ancient Grenn is sporting the latest in fashionable magnets, leaving him stylish whether crushing xenos scum during the day...

...or shredding Chaos traitors in the evening.

You can see the effects of using spray primer in too humid weather on #7, especially the right chest armour.

C O M P L E T I O N B O Y S (and Girls)

Finished My Seekers today which marks the Completion of my First (and Only tongue.png) Vow!

2015 07 17 00.01.02

Note: Freestyling an Autum/Fall Camo Scheme? Not that Easy... Turned out decent though...Still...it kinda looks Lazy >_>

Final Edit: For those wanting to make Seekers using the FW Combi-Weapons and Recon Marines like I did, a Warning: The Arms of the Recon Marines aren't really made for such a Tall gun like the Combis so the posing on some of them can start to get whacky at points.

2335 Points more for Team Heresy!

I Kizzdougs rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete one Legion Praetor from HH book 1: Betrayal, to the total value of 170pts on or before the 1st of August 2015. Victory is preordained and will prove the primacy of the Emperor's chosen Legion, the glorious III.


 


Legion Praetor: Boarding shield, archaeotech pistol, and a master-crafted paragon blade.

Onwards to glory, brothers!

Do that gold armor justice, Kizz. I know you can. msn-wink.gif

Thanks, bro! I'm hoping that I'll be able to get most of him done over the week (if everything goes to plan). The sheer amount of gold is slightly daunting. It's going to be difficult to effectively break up the gold with other colours.

AS YOU MUST HAVE NOTICED THE BOARDS WERE DOWN FOR THE BEST PART OF LAST WEEK.


DUE TO BROTHER ARGOS UNTIRING EFFORTS THE BOARDS ARE NOW BACK BUT IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE SOME POSTS HAVE BEEN LOST.


PLEASE CHECK THE FIRST PAGE OF YOUR STRATEGIUM AND MAKE SURE YOUR STATUS IS CORRECTLY REPRESENTED.

 
 
UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

VOW COMPLETE !

 

 

http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/q578/kydoimos2/photo%205_zpsyjdz7qlu.jpg

 

865 points of angry Fists added to the Team Heresy, ready to destroy Heresy and Chaos!

 

Just to remember, here is the unit : Legion Terminator Squad of 10 men with one heavy flamer, 3 chainfists, 10 Vigil pattern storm shield, 10 Cataphractii pattern terminator armour, sergeant with Thunder hammer for a total of 525 points.

Plus, a Spartan assault tank with armoured ceramite and a flare Shield for 340 points.

 

There is a slight difference of 5 points between my initial vow and the result because I changed a plasma blaster for the heavy flamer. I wanted to put a dozer blade on the Spartan but I absolutely have no idea how to do this, since I think Rhino's blades are too small for such a large tank. Hope this is OK with you Cap' ? If not, I'll try and find a way to get 5 points more.

 

There'll be more pictures to come of these guys on my WIP thread.

 

Hope your vows are coming along nice too!

I could pledge/post my Sanguinius, but since he doesen't have rules yet I don`t know if the 450pts that I've given him can join the ranks of the completed vows

Well then. A post from the dark forests of the Cold Harsh North. Thank the [Redacted: superstitions are for weak-minded fools. The Imperial Truth is superior to every backwater belief].

Since the boards were offline when I left home I only managed to bring a single photo, but what a photo it is. 

VOW 2: COMPLETE

ETL_Complete.jpg 
Must beg pardon for the sub-par pict captures of the three last bits of the vow (Tarantula and Ferrus Manus in the middle and the Tactical Marines on the left). Additional photos might be available once I get back home again in less than a week!
