**IceAngel**

No complaints from me. Looks great.

**M0rdain**

Cool, i like how you have moved the wings.

**Knightley**

@Ice - Hehe, glad to hear it!

@M0rdain - Thank you, see below what I did with them

Update: added blue and edge highlights as a first layer

**Knightley**

Finished the Marine swap.

Started with

Then after talking with Ice, decided to try a different face plate

**inmygravenimage**

Crisp? Check. Grey? Check. Job's a good 'un

**IceAngel**

Awesome job! All he needs now is a name. Then a unit. You pick the name. I'll pick the unit. I think it may be almost time to put some more space hulk terminators to good use.

**Gitsplitta**

Good decision.

**M0rdain**

Ooo, the blue on the face and wings, really pics up the whole model. 2 thumbs up

**Gitsplitta**

Very nice!

**Knightley**

@Graven - well it's the thing I'm good at, why not continue?

@Ice - Cheers

I sent you a PM regarding a name, let me know what you think

@Gits - I was worried that the blue would make the centre of the model to busy, glad it worked out

@M0rdain - Many thanks!

Update: Chronus started, base colors and wash done.

Front

Rear

**Knightley**

Update: First layer red and highlights done

**Miss Dee**

The blue helm stands out good call on the blue.

**inmygravenimage**

But where did all the squiggles go?

**Knightley**

@Miss Dee - Thanks, its nice to have new idea's welcomed

@Graven - That is one thing I forgot, but in the same breath, it's Ice's terminator, I wasn't sure if they needed squiggles.

Update: I *think* Chronus is done

**bebopdrums2424**

Nice!! He looks great. Like an ember!

**Miss Dee**

Welcome and the tank commander looks cool too.

Have you seen my stuff of late?

**Gitsplitta**

Tank commander has really come into focus nicely. And EVERYTHING you do needs squiggles!!

So, is that an actual figure for Chronus, or just a great kitbashing job on your part?

**Miss Dee**

It is gitz

**Knightley**

@bebopdrums2424 - Hahha ready to start a fire under any enemy who gets in front of his tank

@Miss Dee - Sad to say I haven't, do you have a link for me?

@Gits - Fair call, I realised after I took the latest photos I was missing my squiggles so I added them but haven't taken photos - also Miss Dee is correct, this is a standard chronus model, just with the Ultramarine icon's dremeled off and a Multimelta added.

Update: Better pictures now

**Miss Dee**

Its in my signiture

**inmygravenimage**

Seriously pretty matey. Squiggles a-lacking, but I suppose I'll love

**Miss Dee**

**lipsdapips**

Nice work! Wow Chronus looks like his head is actually in proportion to his body unlike most SMs :0

**Knightley**

@Miss Dee - Thanks for the link, I have all signatures turned off so that would be why I didn't see it.

@Gaven - He is isn't he, seems almost out of place in the grim dark future.

@LDP - haha yeah, I wan't to cast up more of his head, but didn't have the time or materials to do it, welcome back btw I hear the painters block as gone

Update: So after starting back at work I have found a small pocket of 40k resistance in the office and have been chatting to a couple of them, turns out my painting blog has been brought up a few times and I have been requested to paint some models for some of them. The spacewolves player has asked me to paint up a wolf priest guy to my usual standard, and a blood angels player has asked for a table top quality paint scheme for a bunch of his models, stay tuned for more color than my typical grey

First up is the Wolf Priest, the 'client' has asked for a hot swappable jump pack/regular back pack and the only stipulation is that he has black armor, the rest is up to me.

**Gitsplitta**

So far, so good.

**Knightley**

Thanks Gits, there is some more edge highlighting on the next one

**Knightley**

Update: More done to the wolf priest

**Knightley**

Next is some metals.

**Miss Dee**

Cry wolf???

**whalemusic360**

Wait, do wolf priests get chaplain and apohacary stuff?
