Signet - Weekly paint 2018.

[Signet-Powers]

Well I have a sizable collection of models that I've amassed. So now I'm gonna be repainting them and updating them on a weekly basis at least to a Tabletop-ish level I'll be sticking with.

Hopefully these pictures won't dissapear like my last thread as I'm using a proper image host site. Apoligies for poor lighting in advance.

Anyway, first up, Bullgryns!

And a little size comparrison if anyone's wondering how big they actually are.

Starting on the actual Guardsmen I have to show these 3 Bolter Sargents:

and this little showcase for the rest of the army

A shotgun veteran as well, because I like how this shotgun looks:

And finally, my modified Militarum Tempestus. Basically just cut off the cables and converted the scope into a Red Dot sight thingy. Also shaved off the armor skirts to look a bit less renaissance-era.

Nice conversions on the storm troopers, it’s made them look a bit like the 90s originals. Which is cool.

Thanks and yeah, I really like the look of the original stormtrooper models. Old but easily much better than the Inquisitorial stormtroopers or the Kasrkin models (I like the kasrkin design but when I bought the models themselves the sculpts are surprisingly poor quality ).

The new scions are very high quality sculpts, easily customissable and filled with bits for conversions.

[General-Kroll]

Yeah, the new kits look awesome to be fair, lots of lovely conversion bits for people wanting to make blanchitsu stuff too.

[Signet-Powers]

They also have, undoubtedly, the best meltagun design.

Technically not a week but Whatevs.

First off, Leman Russes, not entirely finished.

[+] Expand

Vanquisher's closest to being done, though still needs a few changes (mainly I overdid the dirt effects but then I did do it like a while back).

[+] Expand

Next up Rough Riders. Made using Cold ones and Scion bits. Cus I figue who's gonna be crazy enough to ride a giant raptor in normal Guard gear? You'd wanna be covered head to toe.

[+] Expand

Finally some Company Commanders and a Heavy weapon team.

[+] Expand

Only these 100 or so models left to go...

[+] Expand

fun fact, this image got like 10 downvotes the moment I uploaded it to Imgur like 5 mins ago Guess I'll be sticking to private postings gn a from now on.

[Rouven]

Those rough riders are a really cool idea!

[Iguana1981]

They would make awesome Eldar exodite mounts.

[Signet-Powers]

Little known fact but a week to the magical enchanted kingdom of England is actually 3 months to the rest of the world, so I'm actually not months late in updating this or anything like that- not at all.

Anyway, on we go:

First up the Leman Russes. You may have noticed I made the dirt effect a little better and have put it on all my vehicles now. The Vanqhishers paints a little too thick from being re-painted ten times since I was like 14.

[+] Expand

Some close-ups, starting with "Mrs. Compensator",

[+] Expand

"Dalek",

[+] Expand

...and finally "Mr Blue". (My favourite, the paint job turned out really well on him, it looks like he's die-cast from certain angles when you see it in person.

[+] Expand

The rest of my vehicles haven't really got nick-names as they're different types of vehicles and so never really needed any (plus I don't wanna confuse an opponent). There's still a couple of improvents I need to make to the Basilisk but for the most part they're all finished as far as I want them to be.

[+] Expand

Deathstrikes kinda poop in the game right now but I'm hoping it'll get better...

Still working on fixing up the Valkyrie, hence no missiles right now. Used to be a Vendetta but that's IA only now. Missiles are expensive but it's an arial vehicle so its fine.

Vehicles aside, now for the Guardsmen. I havn't been twiddling my thimbs for all that time I've not been posting. Here's a better picture of my Guardsmen up close than the ones I took last time.

[+] Expand

And the whole platoon. First 3 layers are Flamer squads, second 3 layers behind that are plasma squads, then a Veteran squad with shotguns and the command squad/Commanders at the back. I'll have another proper picture of them tomorrow when the suns back out as the windowsill seems to be the only place I can get good lighting.
