Paint him how you envision him to look.

I disagree, I don't see why it would make a difference.

This could always be the Ultimates version of Huron

Thanks Monkeytroll! The loin cloth did turn out nicely. I thought about filling in each square and really filling it out but I like having more of the blackness along with the blue. Gives it more depth.

Thank you sir!



Here are some updates of where I'm at. The top picture is Huron and his body guards. Five are done, the other five are next in line. Its a nice looking bunch if you ask me. Second shot is an updated WIP picture of where Huron is at. I still need to complete his banner and fix some stuff around his collar. What do you guys think of his head? Yes, I know he isn't black like I previously mentioned doing but I wanted to give him gray hair and I couldn't get the gray hair black skin combo to look right so I went back to boring Caucasian.

Love the way the orange and blue work together. Very nice.

Ouch!.. so you don't like me more..? I feel used!


Huron looks great!.. Love the tiger Stripes! Are you still running him in your list? I thought you went all DA! Running a 10 man termie squad!

Hurt and confused all at the same time!

Oh I am running an all DA list. I'm just bringing Huron along for the display, he will not be a part of my army though.

If you can praise the emperor without him around I dont see why you can't praise Huron.

Brother....That's different.. Like saying Chuck Norris and Jack black are awesome Martial Artists!

OK then..

Marine 1 " Praise the Emperor, Praise Huron... hey where'd he go , he was just here!"
Marine 2 " Dude,, didn't you hear, He cancelled !"
Marine 1 " Dude... No Way!"
Marine 2 " Way!"
Marine 1 "That's not good, those Mantis Warriors bought front row seats"
Marine 2 " Yeah! I feel sorry for any ships they run into on the way home!"
Marine 1 " Yeah! They most likely will not take to kindly to other SM chapters entering their personal space"
Marine 2 " Pass the word to the other chapers to stay clear, except those Fire hawk guys, Boy I hate those guys"

(chanting, waving lit Bic lighters overhead). "Huron, Huron, Huron, ..."

Should be "waving lit Hand flamers overhead"

I don't think normal marines gat hand flamers...

Okay, Huron is done. I also finished one of my terminators! Pictures will be up soon for both. In other good news, my LAST figure finally arrived today. My deathwing box came in and bits have already been chosen to make my "counts as" Belial. Plus, I found some nice extra bits to put on him so that he will have some Tigers on him. More pictures of that too.

So my check list of things to do is now down to,

0. Add some painted damaged helmets to Huron's base.
1. Paint four remaining terminators in the unit.
2. Build Belial
3. Prime Belial
4. Paint Belial
5. Take picture of completed Adepticon Army
6. Write fluff for Adepticon Armies

Not to shabby. The end is near!

You can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Well done!

Here is my teammates Executioner Army, well everything except his rhino that he forgot to grab. He also has an extra HQ on the board. He painted up an awesome model for Thulsa Kane but he couldn't use him because he is now using the DA codex. I left him on there because he still looks cool. By the way, I strongly advise you click on this picture and zoom in on the models. They look great. Lots of dynamic poses and rich color.

Here is my updated Huron model.

All that is left is to decorate his base with damage helms from the other armies of the Badab War. I may enlist the help of some of my teammates if they have time. Please tell me what you guys think of Huron. Despite the fact that he isn't in my army list for Adepticon he will still be a center piece of my army and the display. Let me know if there is something you think I need to work on, while I have time to fix it. Thanks in advance!

The Executioners look really great! Very dynamic army that looks like it's in the middle of heavy action. Great job on Kane too!

I think Huron looks fantastic Ice. Great pose, vivid colors, nice job on the head (I can never get the teeth painted). He's going to be an excellent addition to the display. Too bad we couldn't all play our named characters like we'd originally planned. Just too much of a handicap.

Really! who doesn't like chain axes! Awesome job! Love the scouts and the pointy hats, Love the chain axe's. Thulsa came out nicely and the banner compliments the figure well.. oh and the chain axe's are awesome.

Super job on Huron. The face is particulary good. You have mastered that blue for sure my friend! look forward to putting him up front storming the bunkers!

Excellent Job Ice, Huron looks great! I love the banner and the blue.

I wish I commented sooner about the colour of his head. Paint it your way... I painted my Huron's head blue!!! I tried for the dead skin look Not sure i got it tho. One day I'd like to try again

Anywho Cheers cant wait to see more!

Thanks guys. I stressed out about his skin for a long time, I hate to say. My skin painting capabilities are the reason my Ice Angels are great at void warfare, they all wear helmets! I will relay all of your kind words to my Executioner teammate.

I've been getting in some random work done on my guys today. The cyclone missile launcher terminator is next on my list. He is moving right along. Expect some pictures of him soon. Meanwhile, I took a whole mess of Executioner pictures for Gitsplitta. I made an entire gallery of them in my profile, please check them out. In the mean time here are a couple I think some of you may enjoy. Ramos, the first one is for you. Please pay close attention to the helmet in the sergeants hand. Thanks!


Here is another shot of Thulsa Kane. I liked this angel because you can also see the objective marker that the Executioners will be using at Adepticon.


Last shot, Executioner snipers. I love the helmets!

Thanks Ice... I'll get to work on putting the Executioners page together.

Wow, that's some beautiful work. Pass on my compliments to Steve. I have to say, I really like the pose of that Sergeant. Very nicely. Can't say that I feel the same about that bottom helmet on the objective marker, though....

Okay, more WIP pictures, like I promised! A couple shots of my new HQ, counts as Belial. I still need a shoulder pad and I'm debating on putting a Tiger on his shoulders. What do you guys think of the Tiger pelt on his back? The other marine is of course my cyclone terminator. I like the way he is turning out. Do you think I should paint the missile tips?

Love Belial! Wow! That's a fantastic looking figure!

Thanks Git. I'm glad you like Belial. I need to figure out what I should name him because Tiger Claws didn't have Belial in their army that I know of. Perhaps, he shall be known as Laileb. Yes, commander Laileb.

DONE!

Do you have any suggestions on painting the cyclone missiles? I'm almost tempted to leave them silver.

Badass pose. Il like the pelt. I have some scibor lion suff that might be useful.. including shoulders.

I would do a little white tips on the missiles! make them stand out from the launcher.

Yeah, you want some kind of nose cone.

Looks great, Ice. Laileb is a nice figure. I like the pelt. Where's it from?

Done! Picture will be here soon. I went with a fortress gray. I think you'll like the results.

Yellowbeard wrote:Looks great, Ice. Laileb is a nice figure. I like the pelt. Where's it from?

The pelt is actually from an empire sprue my buddy gave to me. I don't know what kit specifically, but it was a fantasy sprue with all sorts of knight lookin bits on it. I think they are suppose to be panthers but they pass as tigers just as well.

In other news I finished another terminator today and I did the first orange layer on another. Tomorrow Laileb gets primed and I'm going to try and finish the other termie. Almost there folks! I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow.

Oh, nice work on Laileb Looks badass.

Could you do something with the high elf white lions pad, or even the head from a chariot pulling lion on his shoulder?
