Fantastic work Scar... subbed!

I think the brutal World Eaters next to the graceful EC would be a good combo too. Or even the undecorated DG to the super decorated EC. I like the juxtaposition.

Lookin' beutiful! Can't wait to see how the army progresses

Thanks guys!

Haha you guys dont make it easy!!!
I just hate FW for going pre heresy they are really killing me with the awesome stuff they bring out....
Hmmm

Death Guard: COOL, WANT!
World Eaters: COOL, WANT!
Sons of Horus: COOL, WANT!
Iron Hands: COOL, WANT!

Hmm this is not going to be easy!!! :(

dude whoa, that contemplator looks really freaking cool
did you do anything nifty to it by any chance?

Thanks Novelist47,

Nope just the pose and the paint nothing else!

Jesus christ on a sunday afternoon that's some bloody sweet models...

You've got quite the imagination and some really sick painting skills.

This thread is full of stars.

So much inspiration....

Thanks for sharing!

Hi all,
Thanks for the compliments!!

Ive started to work on my typhon siege tank and since i did not want to paint him in EC colors and i want to make a new legion of marines i thought lets make him a world eater!!
I only need 6 more marines for my EC army and it is fully finished!
Soon ill post pictures of the whole army in its full glory with the display board i made for them!
Just a little more patience
But enough chatting!
WIP Pictures:

your work is just phenomenal. You have absolutely mastered the art of weathering/battle damage. I love the chipping effect especially on the world eaters landraider. Awesome work!

Good God that thing is a beast. (I love it.) If anything, the superb weathering you've done makes it look even more beastial and threatening. Wow.

Thanks guys!

Not really happy with the front yet so going to tweak that up a bit more!

Any chance you'd like to share how you did that weathering? I think I see lots of weathering pigments but I can't be sure..

Hey all,

Know No Pear: Its mainly AK interactive products i used on it.

Finished the Typhon hope you like it!

Holy cow! that pic from the top showing the driver and the weathering is just inspiring, really shows the brutal nature of that tank with the bare metal cannon and the worn chipped and dirty paint, I love it!

That is supreb Scar, really love the weathering on the tank.

That's just incredible! Still a beast!

Best world eaters I have seen so far. Great stuff

Thanks guys!

Im totally new to the weathering chipping effects but i think an army of this would look really impressive!
So thats my next goal!

I will use the chaos codex for the 40k games only dont know what list to play yet need to have an evening read in the book and make a fun list that is a little bit competitive as well.

I think you're probably gonna need lots of Rhinos, since WE are mostly Khornate, and there's gonna be lots of berserkers(probably?).

Not being able to charge when you get out of a rhino makes them rather pointless, it really is a give away for first blood.

Better options are Land Raiders or if your going FW Spartans and Storm Eagles.

Hey all got a little teaser for you guys!

The diplay name of my Armies on parade board:


And here some WE WIP pictures:

Top notch mate. Looking forward to it!

Saw blades are genius! I will be interested to see how you deal with the beserker guys. Was not a fan of the way FW painted them but if anyone can do them justice it would be you!

I spent, literally, untill 3am this morning, thinking what Legion to create using the Betrayer book..and then i stumbled on this little Gem of a blog and was blown away. What a fountain of inspiration. So i spent untill 5am, making shopping lists online with FW, i even spent a fracking hour finding where you got the Eagle wing sticking out shoulder pad chap (Which was not a fun hour by the way so thanks for that!). Then i sleep, peacefully, knowing where my hobby path will send me for the next few months. THEN...THEN...i wake up and see your beautiful World Eaters and the future plans...now im torn again. Livid.

Oh of course, well done on the modelling, and fantastic painting, i just wanted to let you know you ruined my Easter Sunday with crushing indecision!

In all serious mate, iv never seen better painted Emperor's Children.

LOL im seriously pissing my pants here!
Thanks for the nice compliments! and sorry for ruining your Easter sunday!!

Commander Cain:
Thanks!
I have 5 more of them to build and also a 2nd WE contemptor.
Im planning on painting them the same as i did the typhon.

Gitsplitta:
Thanks!!

Damnit Scar, your talent is mind-crushingly awesome. You better hurry up and serve us some more beautiful miniatures!

I think your painting is awesome, and your Typhon has kindled my love for big tanks! (Not sure if that's a good thing for my wallet, hah!)
Looking forward to how your WE force is gonna turn out!

Thanks all!!

Then a big update!!
I wanted to show you all this much earlier but it needed to be a little secret and since its only 2 days to go before the competition i thought what the heck

I present you my Armies On Parade Display Board for 2013:
The Battle of Isstvan V
-Ugrall Plateau-

Lookin' amazing! What else can I say?
Your OSL is top notch, btw. Especially from a tabletop standpoint.
