And so it begins.........

This is it no more practicing.... no more I'll try this to do that.... no more sniveling -  this is my ToS 2010 army.

I'm hoping to get this little lot (the tanks) done in a couple of weeks before I do the defilers....



Here is my list... C&C welcome....



1500 Pts - Chaos Marines Roster


1 Chaos Terminator Lord - (Mark of Khorne; Lightning Claws (pair))


1 Chaos Terminators - (Icon of Khorne; Terminator; Terminator; Terminator; Terminator; Land Raider)
   1 Terminator (Lightning Claws (pair) x1)
   1 Terminator (Lightning Claws (pair) x1)
   1 Terminator (Lightning Claws (pair) x1)
   1 Terminator (Lightning Claws (pair) x1)
   1 Land Raider (Searchlight; Smoke Launchers; Daemonic Possession; 2x Twin-linked Lascannons; Twin Linked Heavy Bolter)


8 Khorne Berzerkers
   1 Skull Champion (Melta Bombs; Power Weapon)


8 Chaos Space Marines - (Meltagun x1; Rhino)
   1 Rhino (Twin Linked Bolter)


1 Defiler - (Reaper Autocannon; Twin Linked Heavy Flamer; Fleet)


1 Defiler - (Reaper Autocannon; Twin Linked Heavy Flamer; Fleet)


1 Land Raider -(Searchlight; Smoke Launchers; Daemonic Possession; 2x Twin-linked Lascannons; Twin Linked Heavy Bolter)


Total Roster Cost: 1499




OK, its not optimal, but i think its a pretty strong list, I will struggle on high amount objective games, but the odds are more in my favour for not playing with 5 markers.... Its going to be part of some fluff I'm working on about a Khorne pirate fleet named as Khornes Teeth by the Imperiam.... more on that later.

Nearly done the Rhino!

Just about there with this, need to add weathering powders.

Not quite finished and satisfied with it yet, but I have learned a lot. I can be a bit less subtle with airbrush because by the time i have varished - washed - blah blah it dulls down quite nicely. I spounged paint chips with grey - needs to be a darker grey. So I have tweaks, but definite progress!


Finished pics soon

Going to start assembling these ready for batching next...


Currently working on fluff and finial 1.5K ready for this:


WOOT!

Loads of work to do on the body work, Im a little concerned its looking terracotta, I may give a thinned was of baal red...

Painting the Interior

Ok I didn't paint yesterday - got sidetracked!

But I thought I would let you know how I'm doing the Interior. It will be similar to the interior in the first master class in the Forge World book.

Undercoated black

Lightish airbrush of commando Khaki
Light airbrush of white
Sponge chaos black/brown mix with a scouring pad to represent wear
Airbrush Klear as a varnish
Use small amount of Burnt Umber to the recesses
Let that nearly dry and smudge into the panels
Paint details
Matt varnish

I am definitely doing this tonight!

I built a Rhino!

Built a Rhino ready for my painting tomorrow. I should think I will only get the interior done, but I'll make some CSM in between waiting for stuff to dry.

I really wanted to make it look Khorny, but I hate the railings on the spikey bits sprue. I got a wave of inspiration and realised I could use those stupid choas gun barrel ends as gargoyles, I think they look rather fetching, and I will paint them brass. woop woop.
