Imperial Fists Chainfist part2




I have blocked out most of the colors on him now and also added redlining using chestnut ink and matte medium mixed with flow improver.


I also added some battle damage.


It is good to do it at this stage so I can cover up any areas where the effect doesn't work as well.


Next up is highlighting and the Yellow ink wash

Imperial Fists Chainfist part1




Here is my next One I am working on a Battle Brother with Chainfist.


I used hot water to soften the resin shoulder pad and give the cloth some movement and realism.


I am painting his heraldry on his greave.


I particularly like his old company marking 2nd company Tactical.


He has much more work to go.

Multi-Purpose Terminator Bases











I went through a few different bases before I found what I will be using.




Put a 25mm base on top of a 40mm base and trace it.




The on the inside corners add pins so you can put the 25mm base on top and have it not slide.




The Terminator Himself will goes on the small base so he will fit on a space hulk board.




But that small base stacks onto the proper sized base to use him in games of 40k.

Imperial Fists Heavy Flamer














Not one to sit on my Laurels I am hard at work on the next member of the kill team.

The Heavy Flamer Brother.

He is painted in the same style but I used a darker color for the chipping.

I have also used weathering powder to replicate the soot effect that a flamer would give off to the surrounding armor.

The last picture is the newer style 40mm base for the Kill Team.

There is a blank space where the 25mm base drops right in.

Imperial Fists Assault Cannon Finished
















Here he is finally finished on what is now going to be a temporary base.

This base was the prototype but I want to redo it with a small square base instead of cut card and a more streamlined 40mm base so he can be both Space Hulk and 40k.

I am entering him in a competition on Ammobunker a very good site with some very accomplished modelers and painters.

Imperial Fists Assault Cannon pt3







The arm is attached,coming to the final stretch now.



I redid the heraldry to a more traditional quartered scheme.



I also added a few more highlights but it still needs work done on the crux

Brother Goriel







Here is Brother Goriel

I used a trick with a hair to make the acid blood drop.

I have 3 other Blood Angels that are about 80% complete and now have dust on them literally.

I am going to finish these 3 Blood Angels this week.
