yeah i dont like bolter bitches or SMurfs much though

this cadian sentinel is way more kawaii

I remember collecting Tyranids as opposed to everyone else because they looked cooler.
To be honest classic Warhammer with skeletons and the other stuff were probably more interesting.
I wish that had been more popular.

Sinitron · August 3, 2011 03:21 PM

tyranids are pretty cool too though i'm more of a tanks and walkers guy but tau are too sleek so IG it is

i also had some chaos warriors for WFB, but i never got around to making a full army or anything

they're nice though because chaos allows you to do a lot of conversions

chaos and those egyptian skeleton things are neat

i have lizardmen

Ashington · August 3, 2011 06:21 PM

tomb kings you mean sin, i made a few of them in my warhammer phase and i made some necrons too cause skeleton robots are awesome

holy fucking dog dick i compared some prices and shit and IG sentinels in stores cost almost twice as much as they did a couple years ago

wayland games has reasonable prices but i haven't received my shipment yet

Sinitron · August 27, 2011 12:27 PM

here is update 4 u

i got my wayland sentinels and an aegis defence line kit, which will hopefully let me make some cool conversions when combined with my bitsbox

i also assembled a bunch of foot soldiers, figured out how i want to base my stuff and got some extra paints, as well as a commissar

i also intend to get a display case from ikea but they were all sold out when i was there today but will be getting more on tuesday/thursday so i need to check back in then

looks like a baby kitfox from mechwarrior

Sinitron · September 9, 2011 07:37 PM

the kitfox sucks but mechwarrior? not a bad idea i should model something after the mad dog/vulture

Sinitron · September 9, 2011 07:37 PM

also sentinel no 2 is mostly done i just need to assemble the legs, it's very different from the first

BluPhoenix · September 9, 2011 07:43 PM

wow the sentinel actually looks really cool

needs more dakka

Sinitron · September 11, 2011 02:51 AM

no dakka is about as many large and noisy guns as possible crammed together, these things are more defensive than offensive

i started working a little on no. 3 but haven't found a solution i'm happy with yet

Sinitron · September 17, 2011 04:18 AM

i put further models on pause, spray-painted most of the ones i have finished atm and im gonna paint those first

btw resin is a shitty material

the old metal figs were kinda hard to put together and removing mold lines required some effort, but resin has a much higher chance of miscasting and bubbles showing up and shit

which means not only do you have to clean up the model, but you also have to remodel the parts that are ruined in the casting process

plain old plastic has less fine details but usually doesn't suffer as much from miscasts and other bullshit

Sinitron · September 24, 2011 04:10 PM

so i painted some of my troops and shit etc but then i realized the old metal lascannon sucked nuts so i used one of the spare sentinel ones to make another

its a little sloppy but w/e its UNIQUE

Sinitron · September 27, 2011 10:50 AM

i finished the 2 armored sentinels

the camera decided to use indoor settings when i had it set to automatically choose so uhhh i'll take some better pictures after i'm done recharging it

for now i have these, they're all blue but it looks kind of cool anyway
