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


Recommended Posts

Was going to do the scenic base for Kurze first. But seeing as Abaddon's thin blooded whippersnappers are already starting their victory dancing, Vow 2 it is.

You are OK to pledge the infantry but the Macharious and the Lightning? I assume a full repaint from primer level because they look way in a too advanced stage for the ETL.

As with my World Eaters I prime straight from the sprue. So the weapons and engine parts got sprayed landowner and AP Daemon yellow.The camo is also just primer, I spray AP Alien Purple then wrap a bit of cellotape and spray Chaos black. So the model has only been primed, no brushes have ever touched them.

 

I dunno if cellotape disqualifies it somehow though I'll leave it to you, I should hopefully have some pics I can post when I return from Croatia.

 

 

It's not a matter of cellotape, it's that the models been worked on to a stage above undercoat. It has an elaborate camouflage pattern. That said, I can still allow them at a 30% penalty. Deal? 

 

 

That's ok, but to re-iterate it's not an elaborate camo pattern it's just two different cans of primer applied.

First vow complete!

med_gallery_40963_11999_183280.jpeg

Debating my second vow. Obviously, Alpharius will be in it but I'm debating on Storm Eagle or Proteus with a Augur Web. Think I got some speeders to toss in there, too.

Small amount of progress, airbrushing base colours done!

Trying to decide whether to paint the gun casings white like my proteus:

gallery_87021_11487_894886.jpg

Or just detail them with different metals. My concern is the brass might look a little odd next to white. Would appreciate your thoughts!

Made some progress on my second vow:

And here's the disgustingly over-primed predator:

Hope to be finished soon!

And as for the second vow a recent trip to Nottingham will fill that.

 

I WITCHKING501 vow 1 Sicarian Battle tank with ceramite, and Lascannon sponsons and 1 Xiphon interceptor with armoured cockpit to the cost of 405 points, for the Glory of the first and to the AoD

Little progress on some of my Veterans;

Going for a really Collected Visions look with these guys, very Black Legion! Sons of Horus; doing red gauntlets way before those VIIIth Legion guys... msn-wink.gif

@Captain Semper; tbh there won't be much SoH green going on, but my recipe is basically 50/50 Astronomican Grey/Sybarite Green with a bit of Dawnstone thrown in, Astronomican highlights and then two washes of Coelia Greenshade. You can just see some on the middle guy.

Good to see you re-vowing WitchKing! And I'm hearing the Xiphon is quite the kit to build - not too many problems I presume? Good luck!

The Potato shall finish his infantry tomorrow.

So excited that I've only got 3 models from my second vow left to paint (even if one of them is a banner bearer).

Looking forward to starting my 3rd vow - think I might try my knight Atrapos with some out of competition Assassins.

Finished Vow 1! I'm already beating last years record, though I don't feel like the painting is up to par.

Working on building my second vow in between attempts at hellfire citadel. I think this model has finally broken me of the WOW craze I had!

Jesus Christ that's beautiful. And I thought my model would look passable but now you go and put up thats simply simply not the case lol.

 

If you keep up that quality with speed I think we have this ETL in the bag ladies and gentleman.

Would it be alright to adjust the structure of my first vow, or is it too late having gone past the shut-off date at the fifteenth? I just realised that if I ever plan to field my Bearers on the tabletop I may have screwed them from the start.

 

Otherwise, I've got all the bits together now and have started prepping for assembly and priming.

Well you cannot change the vow in any significant way. It's ok if you want to alter the load-out of a sergeant or maybe a dreadnought... But adding or taking out entire squads for example is not possible. PM me to discuss.

OK, an Alpharius. What miniature is this? Or is it kit-bash? In any case you have quite a job to do to! Good luck!

I have no words... These are the best EC I've seen in any context by any painter, ever.

Fantastic way to treat black! And not mention the weathering, and the markings and the dull red... looks beyond awesome poom, this is a very imposing model! :tu:

True-scale kitbash using greenstuff and....10? ish? different kits. He's WYSIWYG, rest assured.
