JAG Templar Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Hi all, This Sword Brother was a quick weekend project that I made from spare bits. The aim of the game was to find a balance between speed and quality, and to practice faces. I think I've found a balance in terms of reducing time spent on each miniature vs good looking models. Reasonably happy with face for a first go but plenty of room forimprovement, and eyes are a bit of a pain still. Anyway it was a nice change from all the Primaris I've been doing recently. C and C as always are welcome! I will fix up the black edges on the base too :) Firepower, Blender, Marshal Mattias and 7 others 10 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Talarian Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 That looks great! Good work mate. Face looks fine imo, them again I'm an amateur painter. I think it looks stellar. Is that black or an eshin grey base for the armour? Looks good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Templar Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Hey, thanks. The base colour is Vallejo Model Air Black with some other Vallejo greys airbrushed as highlights. I'm not sure of the GW equivalents for the paints I'm using though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Templar Posted October 10, 2017 Author Share Posted October 10, 2017 Alright, with a few forum painting competitions going on I've been forcing myself to clear the half-painted models off my desk before I start something new. First up Reivers, which may not be everyone's cup of tea but at least they do alright on the table top - more than alright in some cases. As always - still have to clean up the base edges. My least favorite part.... Othniel's Blade, Marshal_Roujakis, TheOneTrueZon and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aegir_Einarsson Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Very Nice And clear work i love shoulder pads And your black tenique. So how you achived This błąd effect, And how you made bloody/dirty effect on shoulder pads? JAG Templar 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Templar Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 Hey - thanks for the comments. The shoulder pad technique is on the previous page of this thread but I don't know how to link to individual posts. Once I'm home I can determine the names of the paints that I use for the black armour areas but essentially it's azimuth airbrush highlighting.

JAG Templar Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 Things have been slowing down but here is the Apothecary that I did for Imperial Fists Expansion forum comp. I'm moving on to completing a Repulsor tank but sadly couldn't move fast enough to get both of these in play for Knightfall 17.

JAG Templar Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Thanks. I wish I'd started my army like this but I learnt better techniques as I gained experience. Edited November 5, 2017 by JAG Templar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisada Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Thanks. I wish I'd started my army like this but I learn't better techniques as I gained experience. I think that's an issue many hobbyists run into if they've been in the hobby long enough. Some even go back and repaint old stuff ... I've opted to pick up new armies to try new techniques.

Ciler Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Where does that apothecary arm for primaris come from, I wasn't aware GW had one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) They do a Primaris Apothecary set do they not? Edit: Just looked at the sprue and seen the issue. Pray do tell!

JAG Templar Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 Hi. The arm and the backpack accessories come from the Grey Knight terminators kit, and the Primaris body is the Ancient from the Dark Imperium box. Pistol arm is from Reivers sprue. I'm glad it looks as though it's supposed to fit together as there was quite a bit of cutting to get things to work. There was just no way I was paying the ridiculous price for the real Primaris apothecary model! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Templar Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 Hi all, Repulsor that I did for the Imperial Fists expansion. So much work involved with these new kits.

Honda Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 The Repulsor looks fantastic as does all of your work. So much work involved with these new kits. Care to elaborate for those looking at the Repulsor? JAG Templar 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawklynn Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 The Repulsor looks fantastic as does all of your work. So much work involved with these new kits. Care to elaborate for those looking at the Repulsor? I am going to guess a lot of paint and small parts coupled with British instructions.

Took a long time to build and to paint. I also magnetised all of the options, and there are a lot of options! My main bit of advice would be to use big rubber bands for the hull build. It really helped me minimise obvious seams. I guess that advice is true for any large vehicle though.

JAG Templar Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Thanks also for the comments on the OSL. I still feel a bit nervous doing this, especially because it’s the last thing I do before varnish. Still feels like a bit of a gamble with my emerging airbrush skills. Real humid down here in the Southern Hemisphere summer - using three separate moisture traps, airbrush thinner and flow improver just to get an even spray!

SydonianDragoon404 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Wow absolutely amazing job on the Repulsor. Working on one myself currently, so I know exactly what youre talking about when you mention that its a fair bit of work.

Honda Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I just noticed something about the back of the tank. As you disembark from the rear entrance, is it better to go to the left and be incinerated or the right? Inquiring mind would like to know. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I just noticed something about the back of the tank. As you disembark from the rear entrance, is it better to go to the left and be incinerated or the right? You can drop prone immediately after using the rear access point, and low crawl until you're clear of the thrusters. You can walk past, enduring the lingering heat from the thrusters- which are hopefully at idle, as the driver was kind enough to STOP the damn thing before you debark- until you're clear. Or you can use the SIDE access points instead of the rear. Anyone who tries to make you use the rear access point, is welcome to go first, with your encouragement (i.e., push).
