spagunk Posted May 14, 2018 Report Posted May 14, 2018 Did someone ask for dudemans? Really? Are you sure you didn't ask for them? Well, since you're already here, have some dudemans. 9 3 Quote
WestRider Posted May 15, 2018 Report Posted May 15, 2018 Those are some pretty groovy dudemans! 2 Quote
spagunk Posted May 15, 2018 Author Report Posted May 15, 2018 Appreciate it. I messed up the lettering though but that's my penance and my burden for the rest of my life. 1 1 Quote
spagunk Posted May 21, 2018 Author Report Posted May 21, 2018 So I'm not going to say that scouts are my favorite models to paint but generally I'm not happy on how they go together. You don't really have many options putting them together and their heads are atrocious. However they aren't as bad as some I've done in the past (3rd edition land speeders and bikes, blech) so only doing 5 wasn't too bad. I really like how the capes turned out and I think the sniper rifle work well to break up the model. And it's something different than just red and black. 2 Quote
WestRider Posted May 21, 2018 Report Posted May 21, 2018 As far as I'm concerned, it's all about the metal ones Jes Goodwin did toward the end of 2nd Ed. The current plastics are like a low-budget knockoff of those. I just wish he'd done more than two poses each for the non-CCW options. 1 Quote
spagunk Posted May 21, 2018 Author Report Posted May 21, 2018 Yeah, I have those too but I painted them so long ago that they look a bit rougher than the current set paint wise. Edit: Example here Circa 2006 (Hvy bolter is 2008) 2 1 Quote
spagunk Posted May 22, 2018 Author Report Posted May 22, 2018 Sorry if this sounds super narcissistic but every time I see my picture of those tac Marines, the more I like how they turned out. They just worked out really well, even with the mistakes I made. 2 Quote
WestRider Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 I like how the Combi-Flamer has caution stripes on pretty much everything except the actual dangerous bits. ;) 1 Quote

spagunk Posted June 10, 2018 Author Report Posted June 10, 2018 This is the last of my first set of "Summer of painting" dudemans. Next up is a storm raven, a termie captain, termie chaplain, termie librarian, a sanguinary priest and a squad of jump meltagun assault marines. 2 2 Quote
Brick Bungalow Posted June 10, 2018 Report Posted June 10, 2018 Nice squads. Props on the competent photography. 1 Quote
WestRider Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 His eyes look super intense, like he's kind of on the verge of losing it. He is both a Librarian and a Blood Angel, so that actually fits pretty well. 2 Quote
pretre Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 You have no idea the kind of pressure he is under. :) 1 1 Quote
spagunk Posted June 14, 2018 Author Report Posted June 14, 2018 I like his "trucknut" blood drops on his combi-melta arm. 3 Quote
spagunk Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Posted June 22, 2018 Progress: I have a couple of purity seals I need to go back over as I missed them. I also missed a few purity seals. Otherwise, he's done. 1 1 Quote
WestRider Posted June 22, 2018 Report Posted June 22, 2018 I think you might have missed a couple of purity seals, too 😉 Seriously, tho, that's a fine-lookin' dudeman. With a particularly badass power sword. 1 Quote
spagunk Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Posted June 22, 2018 I'm calling it a relic blade. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 2 Quote
Guest Posted June 23, 2018 Report Posted June 23, 2018 What makes them "dudemans"? Not familiar with the term. Movie reference? Quote
spagunk Posted June 23, 2018 Author Report Posted June 23, 2018 No reference. Just kind of a term like "army men", "dollies" etc. 1 Quote
spagunk Posted June 30, 2018 Author Report Posted June 30, 2018 Got this metal bad boy from our own @pretre 2 1 Quote
