Loquille Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Looks great! What did you make the thigh armour from? Thanks! I used 0.5mm thick Plasticard, originally tried with 1mm but was far too thick to layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfran Morkai Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 So thanks to being in close contact with someone at work who has since tested positive for Nurgle's Rot I'm off until next Friday with nothing planned. So I'm going to make a real effort to finish off the infantry I need for my 2500 list, assemble the Dread, Spray and start painting what I can.

GarvielEisenhorn Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 WIP on my Night Raptor sergeant. Still not sure if I'm satisfied with the flayed skin but the rest is going well.

Hfran Morkai Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Slow progress is still progress! Have reset 5 Nunico Vox (including a Master of Signals backpack which with two antenna was interesting) to more natural positions. Have also cleaned up the resin for my Praetor (after finally finding the left arm I purchased probably a year ago) using Hvarl's body, ten Tartaros Terminators, one of each set FW did (to become Counsels and Command Squad) and enough MkIV pads to complete my infantry. Once they're dry it's time to finish off assembling the 30 Grey Slayers and start my Seeker Squad (using running MkIV legs), half of which will need stripping. I also (rather to my embarrassment) found that I ordered a generic Contemptor Dread ages ago so once my delivery comes in I'll have three generic and one SW but I definitely still feel like I'll spread out the Wolf parts.

Gore Crow Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Currently heresifying another squad of hussars - felt like an absolute nutter trying to explain when my girlfriend asked what I was up to Excessus, LameBeard, MadHatter5045 and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarvielEisenhorn Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Aside from some basing details and transfers (which I'll do when I finish the whole squad) I think I'm finished with the Huntmaster. Edit: Oops, I've forgotten the all-important lightning on the armour; I guess he's not finished...

Chaeron Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 So having seen the new DKoK models for Kill Team previewed, is anyone tempted to use these as Solar stand-ins? It's a slightly different aesthetic, but could work well perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indefragable Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 SLOOOOWLY grinding away on my IX Legion. And getting some traction on VII.

Just wish they had official access to Chimeras (Mournival rules, cool as they are, aren't official so doesn't guarantee I could use them) as I'm not a fan of the Aurox price for a metal bawx.

Dantay VI Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Did some more work on Russ. Snapped the head off for now. Not sure if I stuck it on wrong or lost a piece for the back of his head as in the current position, there is a massive blank spot at the back of his head Lighting is really poor in my cabin, its either really dark for photos or way too bright like this lower one.

Pacific81 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Dantay VI - looks spectacular! Was going to say, that should be Ferrus Mannus rather than Russ if you are going for the headless Primarch Dantay VI 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corn's currently selling his spin-off on Cults3D, which has a variation on the middle helmet. Believe he has a top knot pack coming out soon as well.

Not with those heads, something a bit more 30k probably/Crusade oriented. please stop sharing those XD every time you do i die inside that i cant have them.

Sothalor Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 SLOOOOWLY grinding away on my IX Legion. And getting some traction on VII. Fun thought experiment I've been running through my head: How would you run a V Legion ZM force? ALL the Keshig? If I recall, a Zone Mortalis operation is explicitly noted as the type of thing the Keshig deploy for, right? Now, this is something more along the lines of fluff than crunch, but I would also suggest the V Legion would adapt their fundamental philosophy of war for a ZM into something akin to how the Carcharadons are described as behaving - not so much "gotta go fast lol" as continuous probing, hit & run strikes against multiple simultaneous areas with the objective of locating a weak point to exploit via breakthrough. Don't the White Scars actually have an infantry unit that're described as hunter/assassins and are equipped with lightning claw variants? (Don't have access to my Book 8 right now). They seem like the sort of guys that would go prowling through close-quarters enclosed spaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfran Morkai Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I've managed to grab a hardback copy of Tempest for about £100 less than I was expecting to pay. This now means I'll have all of the campaign books to date and am only really going to be pursuing the Visions of Heresy in the Black Book style (and possibly the limited Edition Campaign boxes but less fussed about them). *Happy Heresy noises* Gorgoff, Corswain, MadHatter5045 and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gederas Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) So, I found this tutorial on painting Heresy-era Dark Angels: The ones I've painted are now sitting in a bath of Purple Power to strip, will be repainting them once I order the rest of the stuff needed for the paint (mainly the thinner for the oil paints). Hopefully a majority airbrushed scheme will help speed up my painting However, all the weapons are glued to the arms... Looks like I'll be doing black weapon cases for right now :lol: Edited July 29, 2021 by Gederas Gorgoff, Hungry Nostraman Lizard, MadHatter5045 and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfran Morkai Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 My determination to be hobby productive stalled the other week when I realised I had run out of superglue. But I knew I was travelling to my mum's this week and would rather stock up from the LGS as I'd rather that than Amazon. So replenished with superglue as well as plastic. Also a cutting mat as I've been using odds and sodd for a while now. I may have also purchased more metal Scouts. It's a shame as far as I'm aware there were only ever two Bolter Scouts (plus some SW ones that could either be Bolters or Pistols) as well as two Snipers (but the plastic snipers don't look as silly as the BP/CCW ones).

Plastic scouts with MkIV heads look great as 30k marines with recon armour. They just need to file down the neck to fit, and erase the winged skull if you are a traitor or not a loyalist at the Siege.
