Johanhgg Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Im changing direction of my dark angels, solely by the fact that I don’t like the green color of the dark angels and the fact that consecrators is a damn cool chapter! Some marines, a talonwing knight and my soon to be Nakir, chapter master. http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/BD00E9CE3AF04C51AA5A.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/2F1ACE7C6AF6462D9FBF.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/E453C06B8A7C43E9A830.jpeg Pearson73, Chaplain Raeven, Raztalin and 11 others 14 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x19 Parabellum Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Love it! The perenial question: how do you achieve that black look? (ie, how do you paint your black armor?) Johanhgg 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johanhgg Posted December 22, 2018 Author Share Posted December 22, 2018 Love it! The perenial question: how do you achieve that black look? (ie, how do you paint your black armor?) Thanks man! It’s quite simple really! Black undercoat -> hvy drybrush of leadbelcher -> light drybrush of runefang steel -> 2 hvy nuln oil coat -> gentle sponging w leadbelcher-. It’s hard to fail, or rather the more irregular and less neat the better Captain Semper, Honda and Elzender 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Agree, your first squad looks amazing. I would offer that the power coils on the plasma guns could use just a light drybrush with white to help them pop, but that's just me. They really look good and the Mk. III armor really shows your black technique very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the mk III armour, it really look gritty without much work. Honda 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson73 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Those Consecrators are looking good, almost like the legion colours. The glow in the plasma is nice and subtle too. Johanhgg 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johanhgg Posted December 22, 2018 Author Share Posted December 22, 2018 Thanks a lot brother! Yes I like the black original legion colors much more. A few days progress; some marines, a hellblaster, a talonwing Knight, a breacher (veteran w storm shield) and chapter master Nakir is either ready or almost ready. http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/5F39DDFF17EB48BCA075.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/A4F4876BD5B04A91A1C3.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/73B2BF5A2A514D6C8614.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/5FD320B994DF4B94B852.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/292D32EDEEE542C580CD.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/389CBEEAD9C849D780B6.jpeg Syward, Grotsmasha, OakRiver and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Big fan of the breacher and weathering on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OakRiver Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Really nice work! I've had a soft spot for The Consecrators since the 2nd Edition Codex Angels of Death. Especially at that time you only had a small number if older armor marks, and all in metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johanhgg Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 Big fan of the breacher and weathering on him. Thanks man! He is about to be joined by 4 more guys. I’m thinking about adding basic individual heraldry on each boarding-shield, will see how that turns out. Pearson73 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johanhgg Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 Did some more progress tonight, even tho it was christmas! Three more tacticals, transfers left, and one more breacher. http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/60E2681FBDC240939758.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/37B9F7B3DEB14CA4AD65.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/8FB2A854624246119255.jpeg Honda, Astartes Consul and Pearson73 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I'm a sucker for checks, so that new breacher's shield pattern ticks the bill here. Different heraldry/patterns suits the knightly forces of Caliban too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johanhgg Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 A little update: first hellblaster-squad soon done, the breachers sgt is assembled and another knight done! http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/19179E4D2E4446608C29.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/1BEB2239B1524333A83F.jpeg http://u.cubeupload.com/Johanhgg/B4582F2149E0474EB856.jpeg Doghouse and Grotsmasha 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Beautiful paint jobs on the Hellblasters and the bikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 The plasma glow on the bikers is top notch and the mixed breacher heraldry gives each one interest, but still lets the unit work well as a group. What are you thinking for the sergeant's crest? I feel that either white, or red and white would match the shields well. I must say, I'm not a fan of the orange tactical designation on the Hellblaster, it clashes a lot with the darker tones of the force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im thinking white crest, on one of the Tactical sgt i did the crest white and black and it looked ok, but i think i will try all white now. I Appreciate your thoughts on the markings! Tbh im not sure what colour the consecrators use for their markings. Ive seen both white and red, but i went with the Dark Angels-markings. But i think Youre right. What you think about if i try to darken it abit? Pearson73 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the same dark red that you've used on the Breacher shields would work well for the markings, though I know little about them, I always thought the Consecrators used red for markings.
