binary Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Some more work done, mostly prepping for ETL but couldn't resist doing a little painting. Firstly, 90% done with the command squad, just need capes and the banner http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/8454A588-4EB6-48B0-A28D-50E6A56FA23A_zpsjdvxagla.jpg Then 10 man veteran tactical squad http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/AF570FED-455E-45B6-8D35-3FA72955B0F2_zpsaikgsijc.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/E65DFE8C-2CCF-4DCC-B4B2-AB38CC00ECBE_zpsmqzaua9t.jpg The remainder of the 5 man destroyer squad http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/BC7E56A1-4663-4A14-A1D0-23D28DE02A69_zpsve3qecrw.jpg Started on the deredeo http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/D26842D9-799B-4EBC-B1D8-70E9FB10FDC7_zpszfnstvhp.jpg And since the casting of the shields went this well http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/C3BA148E-A565-4C13-8D63-6A26A8C3BC3B_zpsejdx1vqn.jpg I built the palatine breachers (an idea shamelessly stolen from the estimable Kizzdougs) http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/8D621A03-996B-47A3-BFA4-E5B487231A4C_zpsjycqthzy.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/B635A546-2FF8-4DE5-BC69-69BD4E9441E2_zpsf0g4wity.jpg And couldn't resist finishing the sergeant to test the colours on the shield http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/111968B1-E59C-40D2-9F49-6DDF2E0E09A7_zpsny65yewt.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/DE2AD074-C572-408F-B9B1-90D03168CF3D_zpsh0d1odp0.jpg Now for the part of the army I really want to add some jetbikes but I'm torn between the Scimitar bikes and the MoTRW jetbikes which I could convert. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockwithaticket Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Some very cool modelling ideas here indeed. The use of the Kakophoni bodies as the base for Destroyers is inspired and the winged Sanguinary Guard pads shorn of BA iconography are perfect for EC. The test Palatine Breacher looks good, though perhaps you coudl tidy up the crest and power fist? They don't look quite as sharp as the other parts of him.

Pearson73 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Looking forward to seeing the rest of the breachers painted up; they're looking good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The powerfist and crest are tidier now. Wanted to finalise the look of the shield and got carried away! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the breachers painted up; they're looking good so far. Stay tuned Pearson73, they're on the block for the ETL Awesome work, bro! The Breachers are looking great :tu: High praise indeed! Thanks a lot Kizzdougs, and as I said in your thread its people like you that keep giving me the inspiration to push both my painting and the direction my EC are heading. Done a few more bits and peices since I had the afternoon off. Firstly some extra decoration on the deredeo. I also decided to shorten the barrels of the autocannons as they were looking to unwieldy. http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/D1AE79CF-18F2-4AF8-9AE3-0A11AA020B9B_zpsgty64ye5.jpg Built a forge Lord with conversion beamer and servo arm using some techmarine bits and the astral claws techmarine. http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/6FFC0523-7B06-4505-B3BE-FE2294CB75B9_zpsesvqxf3c.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/4900C3CF-2CF7-4657-8EFD-32C1902D0B13_zpspracvyfq.jpg Lastly I built a tester for a seeker squad. Think I'm going to go plasma heavy with these. Changed the chest plate for a GK one to give the ornate collar, a palatine blade shoulder pad and decided to make the helmet more streamlined by removing the crest. http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m200/mark_kilburn/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-04/085AB50F-4AF0-4490-B513-D12B4B1A5DF6_zps9chp9l0r.jpg Comments?

Pearson73 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 The beefed up gorget/collar on the Seeker looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
