heavy support group - my new army
hi there,
many of you might have already seen my space wolves.
if so, you'll also have recogniced my rc-tanks in the corresponding thread.
-
the reason why i'm starting a 2nd thread now is, because major decision have been made affecting my wolves.
the most important one was that i want to start a new, totaly different army.
and after thinking about what the perfect moment could be to do that, i decided that it is now. !
the reasons are quite simple and logical: (at least to me ;-) )
- at the moment i almost managed to finish all of my already build space-wolve specific stuff.
- the rc-projects are more imperial guard- projects, than sm. (what i will do with the rc-landraiders is made, i don't know, yet.)
- the 2 titan i'm currently building on, are really not SWish and therefore do better fit in almost any other army.
- i have so much imperial stuff to build in my room, that i can not wait any longer with this army !!!!
- i want to paint something in a different color than blue !
.
................................
=>
so i decided to use the titans, the baneblade and the shadowsword for a new army based on the imperial guard.
.
there'll be many tanks, some flyers, the 2 titans and at least 5 rc-tanks in it ... - just to give you an impression what will come within the next ~ 3 years ...
....
ok... i think that's enough theory for the moment. so let's start wit hthe first tank, that i started to paint today ... it is the rc-baneblade you can see in this video:
-
i wanted to have a dark color scheme with a note of camo in it.
further it should be easy to paint with brush, because i don't have airbrush and it should be applyable for flyers, tanks and titans.
in the end i decided to take a scheme close to that from the dkok.
.
so here's waht i did today ... :

in the following pic you can see a picture (on my screen), that i found on the internet, showing the tank that inspired me to choose this scheme:

comments and critisism very welcome as the pj is still in early state and easy to modify.

maybe some of you remmember the big titan from page 2. ?!
.
i got a lot of feedback ragarding this titan. postive and negative.
the negative feedback was in most cases based on the fact, that it was too big for a reaver, but little too small for a warlord and so none of both specs really fit it. additional to that others were concerned if the shoulder were simply to "weak" and not bulky enough for a warlord.
futhermore the design of the legs which is a very agile one did not realyl fit to the upright position of the high torso i used.
...
so i decided to disassemble everthing again and split this mediumsized titan into 2 individual titanprojects. a reaverproject and a warlordproject.
the legs, head, balkonies to hold the weopons, and the weapons would become part of the reaverproject.
and the torso would become part of the new warlord-project.
-
yesterday i finally started with that plan and already build a new torso for the reaver. of yourse it is not finished, yet, but i think you'll get the idea.
.
for the main torso itself i used the basesections of 2 imperial bastions that i simply glued together. easy but effective concept, isn't it ?! ....
so this is something that i'm pretty sure people also planing titans will copy, just because it is a really easy and relativelly cheap and also fast way to get a good base to start with, when building a reaver titans torso.
said enough .... here are the pics ...

This has to get an award for one of the best threads on Heresy
It should of got 1st or 2nd place, I don't think it says anywhere about the comp you were talking about being about painting
Furthermore your painting is amazing!
and can I have your titans

Otherwise awesome work !

but for the moment ... :
today i also made some progress on one of my tanks.
this time i included some green in the basic color scheme.
in a row with the other vehicles of this army it still looks like one of them ... but when you look closer you'll find the new tone and i think in the end this might add some character to this tank.
and now that the basic color is applied it time to start with some details. ...
