Iron Warrior Warsmith

But where is the titan? joking

That's great remember to get us battle shots

Careful, which bumper sticker you choose may have effect on difficult terrain tests.

'I survived the Heresy and all I got was this lousy sticker.' ?

 

[Santawraith]

You got blood on my shiny armor

 

[Sanai]

You could always reference the chaos style helmets by making the bumper sticker say
"Honk if you're Horny"

 

[Vladimir the bloody]

Good one Sanai. Nice minis Wolfie.

"How's my driving?

Dial 666-666-6666"

 

[Wolf Fang]

Lol, some good suggestions.
Anyway, My camera is finally working again (some small part of the SD card broke of in the SD slot) so I've got some pictures of the first five finished Chaos Marines for you.

The next three are nearing completion as well and should be posted up in the next couple of weeks.

As always comments and criticism would be very much appreciated.

Cheers, Wolfie

 

[Sanai]

Very nicely done. I love them.

 

[Vladimir the bloody]

really nice wolfie! now thats some fine iron warriors.

 

[Wolf Fang]

Thanks guys. I must say that the camera flash washed away some of the shading on the armour. IRL the armour plates have a purplish/brown (burple) sheen to them that contrasts nicely (if I do say so myself) with the yellow hazard stripes.

Cheers, Wolfie

 

[Santawraith]

Very nice iron warrior's wolfie. I am looking forward to the next batch

 

[Wolf Fang]

Well here they are. Or at least part of them. These have some Forge World Mark III Iron Armour mixed into them to make them more interesting. The running one also has a converted chain weapon that I'll show once it's been painted. I have to say that the Forge world armour is a bit fiddly, but because the armour plates only go halfway around the limbs it's possible to paint on some freehand hazard stripes.

As always, comments and criticism would be very much appreciated.

Cheers, Wolfie

There looking very nice wolfie, I really like the forge world armour variants, they suite Iron Warriors perfectly!

Keep the pics coming!

 

[Santawraith]

Nice I plan to order more forge world marines myself. It's nice to see one painted up even if not in my color's They are looking great thus far especially the stripes.

 

[Wolf Fang]

Finished the next 3 warriors aside from the bases. I have to say the forge world bitz are a bit fiddly to paint, but they do look good. Also my first conversion (even if it is only a weapon). Some sort of poleaxe. Turned out a bit big, but I like it anyway.

C&C appreciated as always.

Cheers, Wolfie

 

[Wolf Fang]

Got started on the final member of my Warsmith's bodyguard. It's the classic warsmith which will probably be the only model in the army which will not be converted in any way.

As always C&C would be appreciated.

Cheers, Wolfie

 

[Santawraith]

Nice wolfie very nice.

I love seeing someone doing battle damage on their marines. I myself am guilty of forgetting that power armor does get damaged in battle. Any ideas on how you are basing them?

 

[Wolf Fang]

Thanks man.
Bases should be covered in urban rubble and dirty snow (the kind you find on the side of the road after cars have driven over it) or if I don't manage to find a convincing way to make the snow grey and clumpy I'll use the Mordheim tufts of dead grass.

Cheers, Wolfie

 

[Sanai]

Amazing work, keep it up. Can't wait to see when you convert up a Daemonocubula.

 

[Vladimir the bloody]

I really like how you've combined the Iron pattern armour with the regular one. Makes the look very... irony?

 

[Wolf Fang]

Thanks, I have to say I'm very pleased with how the Mk3 bitz add more character to the unit. No updates on the Iron Warriors front so far as I'm busy assembling and magnetizing some tanks (2 rhinos, a predator and a vindicator), but I do have a Studio McVey drone I'm painting in between.

Still very WIP, but I like him so far.
As always C&C would be very much appreciated.

Cheers, Wolfie

 

[Monkey's_Uncle]

The skin's looking nice on that one.
Orange trews should be cool as well.

 

[Sanai]

Im currently reading the Iron Warriors Omnibus actually. Can't wait to see more of your Iron Warriors.

 

[Wolf Fang]

Been a while since I updated this thread as I've been busy with school, work and moving. I finally unpacked my paints and got to work on some of my more recent aquisitions. Anyway, those of you who follow the forge world releases (I'm looking at you Sanai) should recognize these two as the new Cataphractii pattern termies that were released a week ago. Couldn't resist picking these up as they look exactly like what an IW terminator should look like.

So here's the bodies of the first 2 painted without any helmets, arms and shoulder pads, but this counts as faster than light painting for me.

As always I'm here for your comments and criticism and they would be very much appreciated.

Cheers, Wolfie
