Hobby: Chaos Terminator Complete (Pics)

Posted on February 2, 2012 06:30 am by Thor

Disciples of Twilight EmblemSeems like I was working on this model forever. Once I had decided my paint scheme I wanted to see it on a model and began painting this Chaos Terminator. Once I had things base coated I knew I liked the scheme and left him that way for a while as I worked on models that ‘needed’ to get done. I finally got back around to him and I’m glad he’s finally done.

The shots are a bit dark. I’m still working out lighting for the light box I made. Really I just need an area I can leave it set up so I’m not dragging stuff around each time.

 

Overall I’m really happy with how he came out. This model took a while too because really he was my test model for everything. The power weapon took me three tries to get it to where I was happy with it. The warband logo took me a few tries as well. Painting a crescent moon was a bit tricky to get the shape right. The half paint scheme wasn’t too bad but I tried various methods of shading on the greyish blue before I was happy with that. Now I have it figured out the next ones should go a lot quicker.

 

    About Thor

    I began playing 40K in 2006 and have been an avid player and hobbyist since then. Blogging has become my outlet for all those random thoughts regarding the game.

        Thanks.

        Just checked out your blog and man you have some amazingly painted stuff.

      Looks good!  I’m liking the halved color scheme, and purple power weapons are cool.

        I’m really happy with the halved scheme too. It takes more time to do but it’s a reason I choose it. I wanted to push myself more with painting.

        That power weapon, ug. Like I said, that’s the 3rd version of it. I wanted to do something different than on my loyalists but it took some screwing around to get there. Now that I have the method down the next ones will go quicker and look better.

      That Looks awesome! I must say when I first saw the paint scheme that you were going with, I wasn’t so sure, but this looks fantastic! The only problem I see is a gap in between the body and the shoulder of the combi-melta arm. Probably due to a magnet I’m guessing?

        Yeah, it’s magnetized and I guess I didn’t notice when I attached the arms after I sealed everything. It does sit on there better than that. Ooops.

        Thanks. Halved schemes, in my opinion, either look awesome or they look terrible. For the longest time I thought they looked bad and wanted to see if I could pull one off that looked good.

      Looks like a nice, solid paintjob  there. The details like the crescent moon and the purple on the power weapon are nice touches.

      Very nice.

        I appreciate it. After two years I finally got a painting compliment from Ron ;)
