Old Skool Rogue Trader/40K-Space Sharks Army: The Company Assembled (15/08)

[Daeothar]

Awesome work! 

And a sobering reminder that I should get my ass in gear and finally finish the RT squad I still have on my desk since January...

I love the freehanded tribal patterns; not too heavy-handed, but still well visible and distinct. the grass on the traks is isnpired too.

Did you file/sand/cut flat the bottom of the lower tracks? I plan do that on mine, but have yet to see any example of such a step.

Cheers, mate!

I look forward to seeing them when they are finished.

They are exactly as they come, no modification at all.
I think it is because it is sitting on a black t-shirt, and it has sunk into the material a little, that gives that impression.
Wish I had thought of doing just that now though.
Oh, well....

The Land Raider with the Red Brethren Terminator squad...

Aw yis first comment. These look awesome! I love the blue accent markings and the different armour marks! The Raider is of course excellent - nice results on the tracks and again the markings are spot on.

Thank you, Sir!
I am currently working on a Predator that should be vaguely familiar to you.

Just scrolled through the entire thread again and what a difference your paintjob makes on that Landraider! From a white (presumably) White Scars livery to a dark grey with tribals everywhere. And its contents (the termies) are looking great next to it.

I had to look twice to identify the center one though. It took me scrolling all the way back to realize it's actually a Grey Knight with some additional sculpting on the helmet 

Curious about that predator now!

It is modified a fair bit to hide the GK details. As well as the helm, he also has a large reinforced chestplate and a couple of bits on his legs to hide the other symbols. I really should have taken at least one picture before slapping paint on...
 

Curious about that predator now!

I have come the conclusion that I am not too keen on the Predator. Too many bits to mess around with and swivelling weapons are a bit of a pain too...
I have a plan to disguise some of the areas that I am not satisfied with, fingers crossed it works!

[Mason]

Some WIP shots of the Predator now that basic painting has been finished (apart from the rear markings which I may tinker with some more....
















There is still a fair bit to do before it is finished.
More bits when it is done....

Looking very good already, Paul! 

Interesting pattern on the chapter logo. Looks like some sort of digital camo?

[Blackwolf]

Mmmm, sharky

Thanks, chaps.

Not really, just random splodges is all.
