wow just spotted this thread. Nice models man. Big up.

Dozer blade added! and now ready for undercoat:



And im also updating the first rhino:

you uh, have that middle set of missiles in backwards.

I've always had a soft spot for the thousand sons after I collected them as a young'un and these look particullarly impressive. Your doing the army proud, keep it up

Your wonderful army inspired me to start Thousand Sons last year.

Big admiration your way Develain.

What a joy to see a full army pic. Looking forward to the "final" updates and whatever comes next

Absolutely amazing stuff, keep up the good work!

You've done some awesome work.

Absolutely outstanding. If you dont mind me asking, you mentioned that the gold is just yellow, what paint is that?

All this stuff is amazing!

KmoH

Good job, that's a nice looking army.

Love your converting and painting skills mate

You've made me feel so ashamed of my own thousand sons :(... Well done! Those extreme highlights work so well with the blue. My favourite bit you've done is the horror arm coming out of the dread's powerplant

What kind of paints do you use to get that yellow colour btw? It's a pain to paint half decent yellow, but yours looks great. What's yer secret?

This makes me feel much better disposed towards the colour blue.

Your work is awful... -ly good
Painting 9 out of 10
Coolness 8 out of 10!

Don't know why I haven't checked in here in a long time, but I'm glad I did!

VERY nice stuff - from start to finish!

Lol.

I keep getting so much questions about the yellow.

It's actually fairly easy. It is a basecoat of Tausept ochre highlighted with Golden Yellow, and the rivits are shaded with vermin brown and the rivits are then painted white.

Hope this helps.

P.S: I noticed I never made a close up picture of the second rhino. gonna make it tonight and post it

Easy or not doesn't matter it looks great!

Cheers

Fantastic, clean and blue.

Allright, just as promised, here is the second rhino I made 2 years ago:



Now back on the 3rd Rhino again.

Some really sexy freehand on that rhino man, looking forward to the third now!

whats the left side of the turret like?

ALL of this looks great. Did you ever finish the Ushabti Demon? It was looking wonderful.

Love the rhino!
I wish I was a follower of the dark gods sometimes. They have such lovely detailing and I like eeeeeeeevil. But I sold my chaos marines for 5 pound each - an offer I couldn't refuse

Hail the Emperor, Death to the witch!!

About the turret: its a missle launcher from a dreadnought with the missile rack left off and bolter added in its place:

did some plastic card detailng on it to make it look more chaos - ish:


and i made picture of the other side if anyone is interested:



The Ushabti daemon never got finished, nor the Possessed. I went for a complete Thousand sons army, which turned out to work great, exept against Ork horde armies.

fantastic work there.

Soo I managed to get some paint on the last Rhino

Got a few things left to finish, but its a good impression(sorry for the bad lighting):



And I made a start on the 2nd Daemon Prince:



Last but not least, I made an Icon for the 3rd squad of Thousand sons:



The Dutch Grand Tournament is in 3 weeks, so I kinda have to hurry.

Updates will follow.

you've been gone a while... welcome back - I'm glad we will get to see more!

Glad to see an update!
