First up are the five Destroyers of Zephon's High Host. They painted up very quickly after my last post. A small squad of five Marines really paints up fast! I'm happy with how they came out and look forward to painting some more of those cool double pistol Destroyers!

After the Marines, I finally got to some more terrain to be used as a backdrop for the Heresy Marines. These ruins come from the Moonbase Klaisus set from a few years back. At first I was a bit taken aback with how blue the colour came out of the spraycan, but with a black oilwash, some sponge weathering and the pigments they do look quite nice now. As usual, I've written up how I painted these ruins on a separate page for future reference – you can find it in the sidebar on the right.
Brilliant stuff as usual.
ReplyDeleteWere you just using up what you had, or did you not want to include one of the grenade launchers Destroyers can get?
I like the ruins with the blue paintwork, they really stand out.
Cheers! I think it's a combination of the fact that I used the grenade launcher arms for the vexillological conversion and that I wanted the squad to be purely melee. It's still in my bitzbox waiting for the right moment to shine!
DeleteVexllological conversion...sounds religious.
DeleteHaha! Yes, clearly autocorrect knows more!
ReplyDeleteOf course either should be the "Vexilla conversion"
Sounds equally wierd now!
