All class man. I'll second the frustration on the easy to build kits. Now I always just cut off those pins that hold them and glue them normally. The myphitic blught hauler nearly pushed me over the edge

I wonder if the “easy build” speeders are just the old 3rd ed spures. Which were a nightmare to build.
Progress is looking good.

Nev, I’m pretty sure they are the old 3rd Ed Speeders. They are indeed a nightmare. Thanks for stopping by guys! I’ll have more progress shots later today

A little later then intended, but a few work in progress shots for what's on the work bench.
1st up is my Counts as Sammael. Finished with most of the hard edge highlighting. Not going to lie, more than a little burned out on these three speeders. So I'm holding off on the two talon masters until the twinlinked assault cannons I ordered come in. Hopefully by that time I'll have some fresh impetus to finish all the details.
Next up are the next 5 Dark Imperium Hellblasters. Nothing crazy, just knocking out the big stuff for now. Primed, washed with Nuln Oil, based the black, red and bone. Bone still needs 2nd layer and wash of agrax. That'll be next then blockin in the dark angels green.
And the start of my next project. I've been meaning to actually paint up my own Techmarine. I bought one completed and painted off ebay for a tournament a few years back, but really wanted to give it a go myself I really hate the look of the techmarine without his helmet on. So this was my first real big conversion I've done with the old finecast. Nothing too crazy, took a dremel to the head and knocked it out. Rounded out the back where his head sat inbetween his armor. and made it as uniform as possible. Sticking with the theme I've used in my unique models (characters / sgts) I pulled out one of my spare FW Iron Hands helms that I thought felt suitably techmariney. Still need to do a final clean up for mold lines and cork his base, but I'll try and prime him this week.

Trucking right along with the hellblasters. Put the second coat of bone down, and washed twice with aggrax. Second coat of Mephiston Red on the chest pieces. Boltgun... i meant leadbelcher on the pipping between the armor, and the main coat of dark angels green down. Final armor highlights are next after finishing the bone shoulder pads. Then onto the guns themselves.
Also, I realized I never finished my Primaris Company Master's power sword. So I went back and hit it with the split light effect you see a lot on force weapons. Not sure how I feel about it. Would love some feedback.

So, finals are the worst. FYI. and law school finals are extra the worst. That being said, the hellblasters have been put to the back of the production log while I knock out a few large models for the final round of a tournament I have coming up.
What might those be? Armigers my friends. TWO of 'em. lol mind you I have two more on the sprues. I was orginally going to keep with my Freeblade design but after accidentally stumbling across the Hose Avernyii Color scheme... and finding out that they were initially discovered by the Dark Angels legion, makes them perfect. soo: here's the first wip. Spray 'em black and then base coat caliban green leaving a little bit of black around the plate joins and chasing.

Ok, not too much additional work here. Took abbadon black and lahrimen (sp?) medium at about a 50/50 mix, then used a wet brush to pick up some of that mix and go back in and darken the areas on the model that would be even slightly recessed or at the joins of metal plates. Nothing crazy. Then went back and tidey up with caliban green.

So.... I know I have been absolutely all over the place. Annnnd it's going to continue that way for a while. I've decided I can't build or prime anything else until I work through everything currently on my desk... I believe I said this a few weeks back... and I clearly lacked the will power to follow through. Sooo Armigers to the side. 1st Legion Time - Cataphractii Terminators!
I will eventually make this a squad of 10 - but for now its the first 5.
Build: Plastic Cataphractii set. 4 Resin left arms from the upgrade set, maces / mauls removed and resin swords from the MkII upgrade set used instead. Not a huge fan of how thin / flimsy these look. But I'm hoping that will improve once I start painting. Sgt has a resin plasma blaster and the stock plastic sgt power sword. I've also swapped in the DA FW helmt. I filed down the bottom of the helmet till it fit snuggly in place. I've also used PopGoesTheMonkey's DA Shoulder pads. I think these look stunning and I can't wait to get some paint on them!

Thanks Slink! Yeah I'm looking forward to getting to it. I knocked out my first test model. I really liked how it turned out. I used the artwork from the Horus Heresy as a guideline, and I'm really happy with how it turned out.
C&C always welcome!

Have been on a roll recently. Knocked out the rest of the squad. Just need to finished the bases and mount these bad boys. I’m really happy with how the colors turned out. The reversal with the red blade and weathered wings combine with the red casing on the guns turned out better than I could have hoped. I’m not thrilled with how flimsy the power swords actually are, I may replace them

So, since I promised myself I’d finish everything on my work bench before building anything new... (yes I’m clearly a masochist) I’ve done two things:
Finished Assembling the next 5 cataphractii to include two heavy weapons with magnetized arms. I’ll need to buy more pads from PopGoesTheMonkey to have a fully megnatized set but I already planned on doing that so I can have a 10 man lightning claw unit as well.
Finally put some paint on my converted Ultramarine Herald. Simple head swap with some dremmeling, removed the ultra iconography and swapped the banner top with one from the DA upgrade set. I also shaved down the VIII down to just an ‘I’ I still need to add something to the bottom circle. But I’ll get to it.
I also tried something new, I went with a red face guard. I figure this guy has seen some serious gak, and it just kinda felt ‘right’ but I am always up for C&C - what do you guys think?
