I'm hoping to make it to town this upcoming weekend to get some more paints, I'll be getting a black wash then. That grey wash might be nice for vehicles though.

Anyways, here's the last tactical squad. All the infantry are now finished, just need 3 Rhinos and a Chaplain painted.

Tactical Squad 6

Now it's time to play how far can one pot of leadbelcher go!

nice speed, yet again, even if it is basic 3 levels.

Should go far if you thing your paints.

**erick99**

Well, its painted all the infantry, a dred, 5 rhinos and a razorback and part of a pred so far. I'm hoping it'll do 3 more rhinos.

**erick99**

I've been working on some more rhinos, but have encountered some setbacks.

As a break from my iron tide, I'm doing a bit of work on my green tide. I'm working on a scratch built trukk before I fix the rhinos. I'll post a pic after class.

Ok, so I finished the replacement top hatch for one rhino, the other is still being repaired.

Trukk based on templates from bwc-archive

Spoiler:

Rhino (not done painting it yet)

Any thoughts on the Trukk?

Nice work. My only gripe is is that it is going to be hell on terra to go back and fix all those paintjobs.

But its painted, quality aside.. its painted.. and painted to a good enough standard.

**erick99**

Yes, it will be a pain to touch up the paint. But it won't be as big a pain as getting my Orks, Nids and Guard painted... Not to mention all my Termies...

Worked on a rhino some, and built two Killa Kanz. Guestimated their size.

Alright, back to Space Marines.

First off, that rhino from earlier. Needs touch up on the caution stripes, but is otherwise done.

Rhino 6

Then, the biker Chaplain. For now, his bike is made of solid gold. As such, he is a pimp. I probably will paint it like a normal bike later, but I was bored.

Pimp Chaplain on Bike

If you like the bike, let me know and he'll get a truly gold bike rather than yellow.

**Largeblastmarker**

I'm stealing the pimp chaplain idea.

So, I cut my finger pretty bad working on a model for this, so the last two rhinos may take a bit longer than I thought.
After I finish them up, should I:
1) Go back and wash/etc. the company,
2) Orks!!!,
3) Tyranids!!!,
4) Eldar
5) Necrons
6) Guard
or 7) Terminators!

Any input would be great. I'm thinking Orks while I touch up the Company, though since Nids may be getting a new codex...

I say #7 then #1 or #6 you don't want to get too off-track with your models.

I have now painted the eyes of 40 dudes. Also the wax part of the purity seals.

_e

**erick99**

Now have 40 dudes detailed, washed, and done.

Pic didn't come out well, I'll try again tomorrow.

AoBR Captain

Hopefully I'll make some more progress this weekend. Down to 1.5 rhinos remaining!

**erick99**

Finished both assault squads, I'll try and add pics later. Got a bit bored of painting the endless ranks of spess mahreens, so I worked on some stuff for my Alaitoc army.

_e

**cormadepanda**

Wow dude amazing progress!

**erick99**

So no new progress, as I've been distracted by homework and Mechwarrior Online..
But pics!

Assault Squad 1

Assault Squad 2

More work on the AoBR Captain

Illic Nightspear and some Rangers. They'll be snow camo eventually, but that'll be a story for another time.

**cormadepanda**

Nice, like your speed a lot.

**erick99**

Sorry about how long it's been since an update. I did finish the last 2 Rhinos in time for Thanksgiving. Yesterday after my last exam I finished detailing the last 60 marines.
Today, I cleaned up Rhinos, worked on a Land Raider, cleaned up a Predator, did another Dreadnought, and painted 33 Terminators.

I'm preparing for a massive (~7000 points each) game (probably Thursday) before I leave for Europe. So, tomorrow I'll be painting another ~30 Terminators, another dozen marines, 3 Land Speeders, 2 Dreads, and I'll finish up the Land Raider. I'll post pics when I get a chance.
