I'll give it a go on my Bad Moons long before the marines...

Plastic People wrote:Only comment I have on the new termie is the color of the loincloth. It blends in too much with the yellow. I would try a graveyard earth color, or atleast something with a little more brown or white.

I agree, I would do that with the purity seals too.

Noted, I was toying with the idea of a limited pallete on this army but yea I am going to need some contrast


*Update the postie has just delivered a dreadnaught that I won for £2.50 inc pp from Ebay , its in blood angels colour so ill strip it down and get it base coated today

A few touchs to the termie as per comments of others, still very much a WIP for the whole unit

The squad so far ... not bad for a weeks work

Wow this is really cool colour scheme, totally added this yellow to my free booter ork for some contrast. as no yellows before now have really worked.

cheers

The new loincloth is much better!!

Just a quick update on the squad, a bit of base updating, high lighting etc, etc.
More to do.

These really are coming along nicely. Are there any plans for bigger tanks? I'd love to see how a land raider would come out in colours like these!

same

I have got a landraider of ebay for a few notes that I am stripping down and ordering a few bits from forgeworld, When shes prepaint Ill post up a few pics step by step if that would help people ?




A landraider I got for 2 quid on ebay

and



10 assault marines i got for a fiver on ebay all to be updated in fist's scheme

Got me a spray gun to speed up base colouring.

lol. i like the guy falling over.

Looking good!

I really like where this is going...

Been a bit slow here with the fantastic warm weather requiring my presence in pubs drinking cider and topping up the tan with good food and friends.

A few box's of goodies from forgeworld have arrived over the last few days to replace missing bits & upgrades for a old Rhino carcass I found in the bits box and to update the landraider.

Breaking off old superglue is fun and very satisfying as long as you don't bugger up the part

The assault marines have been under coated and I have started picking out the primary colours on the marines

I am still wondering about the Fists shoulder pads for the marines, I don't like decals much and I found some raised fist shoulder pads from a number of places but I don't really like any of them so I am considering moulding some thing myself in green stuff but I am not 100% set on that yet.

Photos to follow.

Photos...

coming along quite nicely

Quick update in regards to the preddy and the 'Raider
Hmm vehicles seem to take a lot longer to do...

Don't look yellow yet
You're getting there though

The sponons need to be separate for the single lascannon or I am to sleepy and seeing things.

what single las cannon got to have more pew pew pew mate

Got a little behind due to working almost a month with out a break , So a quick update I am about to make a proper start on the Landraider so a quick before photo.

Burn the Heretic
