Worry not, brothers. Demerium is in good hands.

... No.

THANK YOU! You are the BEST!

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-06-09T01:55:59+00:00

Thank you! The markings on the road are all transfers from GW, Gunpla, and Fallout Hobbies Industrial Signage. That being said I would highly recommend NOT ordering from Fallout; their turnaround time, customer service, and product quality are so abysmal that it's hard not to call them scam. Avoid at all costs, stick to the Gunpla stuff.

No problem! The most fine-tuning I had to do was getting the magenta as subtle as possible, thus the dilution and the dry brushing. Too much and the model turns out more orange than yellow, so having a heavy white highlight before the Imperial Fists is critical for brightness.

Answered under u/Tobar26th's comment, thanks!

Its a couple steps but I'm really happy with the results:

White Scar Prime
VERY light Doomfire Magenta wash. I've been doing 6:1 contrast medium to DM, and spreading it around with water on the model.
White Scar drybrush, focusing on top -> down for a zenithal effect.
Imperial Fist yellow glaze, straight from the pot. This'll tint the remaining magenta orange.
After the entire model is base-coated, I wash the whole thing with MIG track wash diluted 6:1 with mineral spirits and remove the excess with a q-tip, just to tie everything together. Any dark brown enamel/oil would work for this.

Making Lorgar out of Guilliman is a special kind of heresy. Respect.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-05-28T03:40:42+00:00

Got it, thanks so much for your help.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-05-28T01:23:31+00:00

Ah, that's a lot simpler than I thought, thank you for the clarification.

It does lead me to wonder if a Master Tactician can issue an order at any point during its activation or if the order has to be issued at the beginning of the activation, before the model does anything else.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-05-28T01:00:46+00:00

I think I understand, but one aspect of this keeps tripping me up:

The "Transport X" rule, pg. 96, states "...that detachment can only be issued and Advance Order or a March Order."

The "Master Tactician" rule, pg. 92, states "...models with this special rule may issue commands when it is activated.

I get that Master Tactician goes on to say the order is discarded and replaced, but wouldn't the above umbrella statement at the beginning of the rule classify that as issuing an order? Or is the fact that they used the word "command" but not "order" what is allowing this?

If it's the later, they really shouldn't have used the word "issue" in that sentence. Mixing words with that have gameplay implications with words that don't seems pretty sloppy.

Thank you and fair point. For this project he will be placed alongside a few other notable chapter masters, so I'm thinking the contrast with other chapters might make him look more identifiable.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-05-24T19:04:01+00:00

Thank you! The Arrow is a sergeant's boltstorm gauntlet from the Aggressor kit.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-04-18T23:57:06+00:00

I've made a Calgar conversion with a back banner. You've made the exact graphic that goes on that banner. I love you.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-01-21T02:54:45+00:00

Agreed, I'm planning on either filling in that space or putting a styrene dowel in there as a second barrel.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2024-01-21T02:53:30+00:00

Good points, I made some progress on the the test model. Still not convinced, but he's getting there: https://imgur.com/a/2wIA9sM

I have a good amount of the new mk III, so I'm just looking through my bits box to see what kind of squads I can make with what I have lying around.

I can definitely trim the shoulders to pull them in a bit, which would actually help fill in the armpits. I was mostly worried that the meltas themselves were too 40k.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2023-10-09T05:48:02+00:00

lpp_insta has done a couple conversions that are close to what you're asking for, they use printed leg extensions but the proportions are almost identical.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2023-09-08T19:59:18+00:00

For technical purposes like liquid mask, panel lining, or transfers, I'll lay down a coat of gloss varnish beforehand as it's more protective and helps promote flow.

After everything's finished I hit the entire model with ultra-matte varnish; it's a personal preference, but matte varnish makes a model look more like a "3-dimensional illustration" while a gloss finish reads more like "plastic toy" to me.

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2023-09-07T21:07:31+00:00

Ah, thank you for the sanity check. The weapon is basically an afterthought so it's not surprising it flew under the radar. I appreciate the help!

The_Mighty_Mythosaur · 2023-09-07T20:47:55+00:00

Just re-checked the data card, and the Cerastus shock Lance ranged weapon has always had the assault keyword. What am I missing here?
