Hey, first of all-I love the Space Crusade Models, particularly the SC Dreadnaught and Twin Linked Lascannon turrets. The progress looks good so far, but I don't think the blue under the white terminator helmet is really working. It looks a touch sloppy, the other thing is that I think the models look a bit dull (well the same terminator) because the weapon metal is dull, there isn't really anything that makes them pop.

Anyway, best of luck

I agree, something needs to be added to make the models really stand out. Picking out things like those skulls, the rivets, and the chest eagles goes a long way.

Also, it's nice to see some 30k style terminators. I can't tell form the pictures, have you modleed them with twin linked bolters, or gone WYSIWYG and just used storm bolters?
The Diplomacy League - give it a look.

Well played. Drybrushing is the future *twitch*
beslubber you sheepz!  :P

You know you play too much Diplomacy when you have more PM's than forum posts.

First off I'm no Competition painter.
I wanted dull, I can't stand shiny new looking weapons,
I'm sick of white I could redo the head I'm sick of it, every thing has gone wrong, my paint has turned runny (stupid gw)
My brushes are crap (never ever going to buy gw again as all the ones in the shops are all crap tips)
I actually wanted blue skulls on the red (blue) wake.
The PH termis were an experiment that failed but now I know how to get the parts for proper PH Termies.
I just thrown away the Landraider because it looks crap.
Will need to buy the Proper FW one.

The idea is to repaint the army to a standered were I'm happy to take it out in public
Would off had a Vindicator to sho but my primer went wrong and screwed up the loader mech.

Well went to the tournament, only got 2 games (1 draw, 1 lost) and this is the army


Next time I drop the vindicator and termies and take a godhammer landraider.
Need more Las cannons
