Hi! I probably wont update very often because I things I have to do during the summer, but I hope to get at least a post a week! I have 2k + of BA but i only a have WIP pics of stuff I'm working on now. Without further ado, here you go:







Still a bit of cleaning to do and finish the metallic parts. C&C Appreciated!

P.S. I'm 12.

You're 12? Things I painted when I was 12 look terrible compared to this. Excellent work! Can't wait to see more.

Nice! Keep up the good work!

Here's my HQ's. I only use libbies but i used to use Dante. However, he still makes good use of himself as a proxied libby. On with the pics ~

Dante:



Libby :







And for the lulz:



Whoever can guess who he counts as get a cookie.

Domo-stan? (Meph)

Cookie for you!

Well, it used to be a keychain...... got tired of looking at it so I made Domo-stan!

I do have a real Mephiston though that is still WIP, I'll post a pic tomorrow.

Since the GW prices went up, i had to stock up before it happens again...... so i got these!



I couldnt find Mephiston so ill take pictures of him some time later.

Lol! Love the Domo-stan! Your painting looks way better than mine at 12!

Well, its been a while since i updated my blog. But i have goodies to show!

Here's some WIP shots:

Count-as meltagun:



Flamer:



Meltagun:



I really like this guy for some reason.



Regular assault marine:



Sergeant 1:



Sergeant 2:



Also, here is some painting WIP. Just started edge highlighting on this model.




The meltagun and flamer are built from DC bolters and infernus pistols and hand flamers. If anyone wants, I'll do a tutorial on them.

C&C appreciated!

I like your poses, but are you aware that a power fist bcomes obsolete when you have a thunder hammer? It's a complete waste of points.

Yeah, it is sorta redundant. However, its just for looks.

Awesome minis. You're a damn sight better painter than me!

Really like some of the poses you've got going, really dynamic.

Keep it up.

Hi! Sorry I havent been able to update recently, I've just been so busy! Well tomorrow, I'm going to a random doubles tournament at my local GW. The list I'm bringing is full DOA. I'll take pictures to show all of you guys.

Also, I have to admit havent painted any of my Assault marines I showed earlier. However, I will try to get them by next week.

Lucarikx

Hi all! Time for an update! I still haven't worked on my DC at all........... Oh well.

Well, with the 6th edition ruleset in place i decided to play a few games with my BA. Lets just say I had no chance. To make my self feel better, I ordered a Mortis Comtemptor! But then i realized i couldnt use a Mortis Comtemptor with my BA without Allies.... So, i decided to run my BA as "red space marines". Then I read the Badab War books and I liked Tyberos the Red Wake so much, I started a force of Space Sharks to add to my BA ! Heres some pictures (all still WIP ):

Tyberos Count-As :







Dual LC termie :





Group Shot :




I have some tac marines coming up too.

Thanks!

Lucarikx

Nice work man keep it up!

More updates! I'm back from vacation and ready to paint some more! I finally built that Contemptor Dread I bought almost a month ago... The legs were a pain but the manager at the local GW was able to help me out. While I was in CA, I visited the LA battle bunker! I bought a Space Wolf Pack and a Razorback for my Carcharodons. They wolves will need a bit of converting, but it shouldn't be that bad.

Also, pics of the painted Contemptor :









Thanks! C&C appreciated!

Lucarikx

Nice contemptor!

The Space Sharks are looking wicked too.

D

Hey! Time for an UPDATE! I'm torn between Exorcists and Space Sharks...... So I'm doing both! So my blog will have all the SM chapters I choose to make/build now!

Here are some pictures!

Captain Sylas Alberec of the Exorcists 3rd Company:









My count-as Tycho

C & C Appreciated!

Hey guys, here's some more WIP pictures:

Deathwatch Librarian(Guess what kill-team/chapter he is from!):







Closeup of shoulder pad:



WIP of banner bearer (also Deathwatch):

Closeup of gunaxe:



Again, C & C Welcome!

Lucarikx

The only problem I have with people updating after a massive gap, is it makes me think "oh yeah, I should probably update my blog!"

Seriously though, cool minis. Really like the kitbash for the count-as Tycho, but I hope you don't mind me saying the painting isn't up to your previous standard. Especially when compared to the Exorcist captain.

The gun axe is wicked though, you probably couldn't got away with shortening the gun on the bolter, so the barrel was closer to the axe head, but it's still a need conversion.

Thanks evildrcheese! About the Tycho count-as, I do agree with you. I kinda rushed him out. I'm going to touch him up a bit later.

Also.. I might start CSM because of the new codex.... We will see how good the rules are this weekend.

Lucarikx

Lucarikx the BA look really cool, makes me want to get on with my lamentors...

Hey! So long since my last update. I will show more of my marines soon, but for now I'll show you my test models for my new army.... Tau!

First model... Anyone know a better way to paint white? Min came out REALLY chalky.





Kroot test scheme:





And finally, a Devilfish WIP!



I used spray paint for the Devilfish, and I think it came out pretty smooth. Should I use spray paint to prime the smaller models as well?

C & C Appreciated!

Lucarikx

How did you paint the white on the fire warrior(?)?

What exactly do you mean when you say 'chalky'?

I've just painted a white armour DC member, by painting grey and building up to white over several layers and I'm pretty happy with the results. I'll update my plog soon and then post some pics here if you like?

D

For the armor, over black I painted the new base white(I forget the name) in a few layers. Then I black lined it. It seems a bit thick in person.

As for the white DC, that would be great!

Lucarikx

ALWAYS spray base your models dude. Lesson number 1. Otherwise looks good :-)

Thanks for the reply!

I redid the color scheme for my Tau. I replaced the red with yellow and the gray with black/gold.

Also, I got second place in a recent 2500 point tournament with my BA last week!

So, here are pictures:









Thanks for looking! C&C Welcome!

Lucarikx

Hey all! It's been a while! For my 300 post, I'm going to restart my P&M blog! Here is some pics of Tru-scale marines to kick off:



Here is a comparison:



Still got filling to do, but getting there!

I'm also preparing for WGC, and school ends soon. This means more updates, hopefully.

Thanks,

Lucarikx

Ok, heres a PIP pic of the Tru-Scale marine:
