CommissarZac Posted July 16, 2019 Author Share Posted July 16, 2019 Got some third party steam goloum things to slap a few 40K bits on and proxy as Sentinels. Gonna go with the fluff of halfling operators. Slowly but surely this force is coming together. duz_ and Bjorn Firewalker 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 The "counts as Sentinels" look great! CommissarZac 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarZac Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 All caught up with painting my 38th Landsknecht Rifles of the Feudal Knight World Straun. Time to order more squads and models. Might hunt for some used DnD minis to use as conscripts.Current forces consist of 1 Company Command Squad1 Platoon Command Squad1 Infantry Squad2 "Counts as" Sentinels with Autocannon and Flamer respectively and 1 counts as Leman Russ.Future additions will hopefully contain 4 more infantry squads, More counts as Sentinels, more Russes. And a Knight Lance. duz_, WarriorFish and Bjorn Firewalker 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Good job. I especially admire your skill in painting metallic surfaces, e.g., the guardsmen's plate armor. CommissarZac 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarZac Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 Thank you. I did that with a Wal-Mart paint marker hehe. Bjorn Firewalker 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommissarZac Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 Thank you. I did that with a Wal-Mart paint marker hehe. Thanks for the info. I appreciate modeling tips like this. Use the regular felt tip for the broad areas and use a throw away small detail brush for the recesses. Press down on the marker to pool a small bit onto your paint palette and use the brush for hard to reach areas.

CommissarZac Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 Just got in a second squad of Feudal Guard troops. So stoked to start painting this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarZac Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 Vox Operator Greta Packard. (Inspired by disney's Atlantis Wilhemina Packard) "He took his suitcase?! Marge honey, I don't think he's coming back". Also am embarrassed by the eyes but at the same time they look like they just received terrible news. I want to open a small game. Caption this pic. lets see your guard humor. duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuardDaddy Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) Trick to eyes (I find) is to do them early in paint job. You can the tidy up in later stages. I find for example you can easily repair overspill on eye socket rim and brow. A thin wash of nuln can be used on eye ball to add shadow around it reducing the effect of white eye touching light skin tone.

CommissarZac Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 The 38th Landsknecht Rifles have gained some mobility with a Command Taurox and a Chimera. As well as a heavy weapon team and since I had a Leman Russ turret and hull left over from my kit bashing I poorhammered it into a full Russ. duz_, Bjorn Firewalker, WarriorFish and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Good job on the tanks. What were the Leman Russ' tracks made of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarZac Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 I just traced the pattern onto cardboard and cut out three sections each side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarZac Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 Three months in and I did not expect this unit to grow as fast as it did. Still two squads short of a full Platoon but at 3 squads, a sentinel squadron, a heavy weapon squad, and a fledgling tank squadron, I am proud of the growth of my 38th Landsknecht Rifles.

duz_ Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 That is an impressive effort in that fine frame they look great too! :tu: In the same amount of time I haven't finished my 30 Mordians :sweat: CommissarZac 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommissarZac Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 Thank you all. I cant wait to expand this unit more. I'm already debating repainting my Russes I have for my rogue trader army and adding them to this Army. I have not devoted this much time and effort to a single unit in so long. duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarZac Posted September 11, 2019 Author Share Posted September 11, 2019 Feudal Leman Russ Mk2. Got another russ and arkanaut frigate to make another russ for my feudal guard. Took the tower off and made room for a russ turret. Sits a little high for my tastes but all together not bad in my approximation. I want to find some tools that would let me cut out slits for the track sections in the hull, without having to hack off most of the sides. Maybe by Mk3 I'll have found a way to keep the hull of the frigate intact while adding the tracks. duz_ and Halfpint100 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I commend the efforts you made- can't be easy combining the Leman Russ tracks and turret with the Age of Sigmar airship's hull. Unless you raise the turret- which will require more work- I doubt there will be room for a twin heavy bolter/flamer/lascannon turret, but maybe... (Eyes the airship's pointy bow.) Leman Russ tank commander: "Ramming speed!" CommissarZac 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
