Banished-Enclaves | Paint Threat February 2014 - 2 x 10 Man Space Marine Tactical Squads & 3 Centurions: |
Member Since: December 9, 2013 Initative RK: 1 MP: 0 | Sunday February 2, 2014 7:54 AM This months threat is a little different from my past two threats, this month I will be painting 2 x 10 Man Space Marine Tactical Squads & 3 Centurions in the Ultramarines colour scheme. I have had some success with selling painted miniatures on eBay and since Uni is starting back up for me at the end of the month I saw it as a good opportunity to make a few extra dollars before Uni commences. It is almost the 3rd of February here in Australia and so for yesterday and today I have been Scrapping mould lines, washing bits of plastic, and gluing them all together. I managed late this afternoon to also get the base coat of Macragge Blue down, here they are so far:Lastly here are a few pictures of my attempts to find out how I will paint these Ultramarines. I have used an old brocken Farsight model I bought off eBay a while ago (wanted the metal components for conversion parts) and a Spare Space marine helmet from one of the tactical boxes. There will be minor alterations to these colours but I think I have it pretty much sorted out, so now it is on to the painting. Well that is it for now, but hopefully my first attempt at painting Space Marines goes to plan. Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated! All the best with everyone else's paint threats |

Like the idea of painting for beer money. Wish I'd the wit to do that when I was a student, more fun than stacking shelves! Good luck with this months threat and hope you get a good price.

Member Since: December 9, 2013 Initative RK: 1 MP: 0 | Sunday March 2, 2014 4:59 AM Sorry all I had meant to finish this but life had got in the way....I was on a good roll for one point there too! I will hopefully finish these soon but with uni starting up again it will really eat into my painting time. Thank you all for your kind words and support, whilst I didn't stand a chance at finishing due to numerous set backs I am hopping to get back into it for march and complete something again. Here are a few quick pictures of how far along I was able to get: |
