Space marines look nice! Only thing I might add to help visual clarity. Is to paint the spauldron outlines with a complementing colour, and maybe add a few yellow highlights on the armour.

In all honesty, i did a yellow highlight on the earlier ones, but i use an old citadel yellow and i'm running out, and i wanted to save paint for the tanks  ;D

Those are fab

Thanks! have basecoated and washed all the tanks today, so should get them done in the next week. Should push me up to 311-312.

I have just a tiny bit of the yellow paint left over, that i might use for a drybrush on the vehicles, or save in case i ever get a second thunderhawk :D

petercooman

Problem solved, spotted a cheapish thunderhawk on ebay and snapped it up, completing my army.

Only thing missing now is an imperial titan or 2 but that can wait!

I've almost certainly got an unused box of the plastic b*ggers......Somewhere......I'll never find it. :(

The plastic titans? they were fun models!

I'd better get on with stuff...

No no, just keep slacking, i might take the lead for once, if only for a moment!  ;D

I've a couple of the plastic Warlord titans painted as part of my Imperial "Sons of Thunder" Titan Legion and one more as a Chaos titan. Which means there should be three more in the house somewhere .... d***ed if I know where though! I got a pack of various metal upgrades for them in one of the GW sales, not sure here the unused ones of those are either. Doh!
