Project Rebuild: #1

Project Rebuild: #1

Since my Salamander Space marines were my first painted army, allot of laziness was done to complete this army. I've used primed black instead of painting black, used green ink to tint my army, missed flash lines and drybrushed allot of figures. My bases are also just red-oxide colored sand from Woodland Scenics ballast. I will be using various art supplies from pumice to acrylic mediums to create much better bases. I will be stripping and repainting allot of the figures and models I have done in the last 3 years.

The first models to take the dip in super clean were two rhinos I actually got used from a guy I knew in Renfrew, Al. Unfortunately they were primed very heavy and had very thick blue Ultramarine painting. It stripped alright, and I have filled the gaps with green stuff and rebuilt allot of the structure. I added plasticard unditching beams to the roof, brass rod antenna, reinforced the stormbolter with brass rod and added small touches with purity seals, and some FW bits. The first one looks a Little rough, but should shape up to be a nice vehicle when done.

New Acquisitions

New Acquisitions

Recently I have sold my Imperial Guard army, and have made a few new acquisitions. I purchased the following since my last major update on my Salamander Army.
Ravenwing Battleforce
Whirlwind
Two additional Bikers
Inquisition Rhino
Two Black Reach Dreadnoughts

I have assembled the Ravenwing with a Powerfist SGT, 2 Meltaguns, 1 Multi-melta. The speeder was assembled with 2 multi-melta's, using the assault cannon mount.



Rhino has custom extra armor, lascannons on dreads are from the plastic kit.
Just a normal Whirlwind

Here is the Liberian and captain assembled with the two space bikers. The Liberian is using a thunder hammer as a force weapon. The captain is wielding a relic blade. His backpack came from Azrael.

Painting Commission: White Consuls

Here is a WIP of the White Consuls I am working on. The project is moving along great! I had a few early delays due to receiving the models with black primer already on them. I am expecting to have this force completed by the end of June.


After this commission is done, I will be looking for other projects. If you are interested, please send an email to mitch909@hotmail.com
