I'm trying to figure out the scheme for my Slaanesh Titans this week. I'm pretty happy with the purple to magenta armor transition. It's way more blue in the photos than in real life though (leave it to Slaanesh to mess with color balanace). The black bits will be gold, brass or silver but I'm still thinking on the weapon pod looking bits that are white right now. Thoughts?
I finished up eight command strips this past week for what I painted so far and got the Tiny Tin Troops standards on them as well. I've done some pretty fiddly conversion projects in the past and these are right up there with them. Between all the aligning, cutting and glueing they're pretty involved. I like the effect though, they add a lot of character.
I finished another two units this week. All that's left are the eight command strips, which I hope to finish next week along with the flags that came in for Tiny Tin Troops. Then I'll get them glued to some bases and put in the flocking queue.
I finished up another two units this week. Three more to go, including some fun with flags, until I start basing them.
Finished up another brigade this week. I'm on the hunt for more Baccus skirmishers as I want to have 3 stands of formed behind three stands of skirmishers to make my units.
I wanted a little more variety in my Chaos Cultist and Mutant stands so I've been doing weapon swaps between the two models. I'm nearly done, the last bit will be to convert Cultists with both Beastmen weapons and vice versa.
I'm also kicking around ideas for heavy weapon cultists. One Heavy Stubber and one panzerfaust-esque model. Nothing to show yet for them.
I also painted up some more Union infantry. Six strips took me about 3 hours, which isn't horrible for me.
Messing around with something different, ACW Union Infantry from Baccus. I took Napoleonic Therapy's method and added a few highlights. Everything is Coat d'arms paints.
I ended up going with a seafoam green for the Blast Masters on the Noise Marines. I think it sets them apart nicely from the rest. THese are all finished up now, aside for topcoats and flocking. I'll get to that down the road when I have a few more things in the queue for the airbrush.
I've been working on these Noise Marines in the Flawless Host scheme for the last month or so. Thoughts on the actual Noise Marine model? I'm not sure on the weapon, specifically. I'm wondering if I should add some color somewhere.
Anyway, they're almost done bar the basing and Noise Marines. These Epic 40k era plastic figures have a crazy ammount of detail on them, and I'm compelled to try and paint all of it (hense the long paint time). Sourcing the standard marines was slightly easier than straight Noise Marines so I just did a single one per stand to represent the Blast Master they have.
The Icon Bearer is stock, but I put a pin head on the bottom of his plinth and a magnet in the base so I can pop him on there when I need it. Not sure what I'm going to do with the banner yet, maybe just a Flawless Host decal.
The Champion is a Berzerker conversion, I head swapped a Daemoneete head on to it.
NEAT went down two Saturdays ago. We had 19 players slugging it out over three rounds throughout the day. Jon's Necrons and Chris's Speed Freeks went undefeated, with Jon coming out on top with slightly more objectives across the day. Pics are below, enjoy!
