Necromunda Bluenosedtitan's gang log

[Bluenosedtitan]

Hi All, so I'm doing this log to motivate me to get my miniatures finished as I am quite good at abandoning projects half way through...

I am a new player starting Necromunda, and this will detail the progress of making/painting my Orlock counts as gang, the Tetravaal Enforcement Co.. The gang list can be found here: https://yaktribe.org/necromunda/gang/view/18284/Tetravaal+Enforcement+Co.

I will add the progress pics to this album: [album=medium]127[/album]

I have finished the building of the gangers, and my next stage will be painting.

All the models have magnetised arms, and a couple of back accessories. It is my first time using magnets, and making custom models.

Let me know if you have any C&C, and feel free to ask any questions!

They look great (as I said in the other thread)

If you can post all the pics (or at elast a greater selection) in each post that would be cool, otherwise its a lot of flicking back and forth to the album.

Cant wait to see the bases and paint on these guys (how many are you planning to build??)

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

Thanks again!

Sure, from now on I'll do individual pics in this thread as I make progress on them.

9 for now, then I'll probs do a couple of extras to add to my gang at a later date.

For now, here is the main group pic for all those interested.

The whole gang

So this is it, the whole gang. I have shuffled a couple of bits round, and changed some of the...

I textured and but some debris on the bases last night, ready for priming!

I will prime and get some base colours on tonight and then add some more pics

 

[spafe]

What colours will you be undercoating? and settled on gang colours yet?

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

Undercoat black, then I'm thinking dark grey fatigues, and black armour. I was then going to paint individual details really bright, vibrant colours to make them stand out. Like, a bright yellow gun, a pink grenade, or a couple of electric blue armour plates. But vary it on all the models so they are not too uniform.

Either that or Undercoat grey, have dark grey/black fatigues and have white armour with bright detailing as above.

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

Here is where I am at so far. I have decided to go with dark grey fatigues with white armour and bright contrast segments.

They have all had the base flesh and armour colour on, and most have the base fatigue colour on as well.

That's a great start, and a nice uniform look so far, which will tie them all together nicely once the spot colours start appearing

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

Thanks very much. That's the plan anyway!

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

Hi! Another bit of progress here. I'm not the quickest painter and am away most weekends so can't do much painting then!

I have filled in a few more details, black straps and boots, and a bit of hair. I have also given the armour and clothing a wash. I'll probably leave the fatigues how they are, as they with contrast with the white armour.

Anyways, enjoy!

It's happening (Slowly)!

I've added the first couple of coats of white now, I'd forgotten how much effort painting white was.. Oh well!

Added the first couple of coats of white. They still need more, but they're on the way!

If it helps, the white is looking spiffy, and the end effect will be worth the effort!

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

Thanks very much! It had better be worth it

At a loss of what colour to do the boots/backpacks. I'm thinking just a darker grey than the fatigues?

 

[ClockworkOrange]

Nice! Where's the blonde head from?

Thanks! I'm not actually sure, it came from a pile of bits of was given. It had some fantasy looking stuff, so I'd say something empire....

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

Another update! I got bored of doing all this white, so I decided to do their skin base and some extra details as well

[spafe]

I want to say its a high elf head... maybe from the archer or spearmen kit... or a chariot... Sorry that's not really narrowing it down much

 

[Bluenosedtitan]

It could be, but close up it looks more human. I'll take a close up when I am home!

 

[spafe]

It's that one, I can narrow that down to either plastic bolt thrower crew or more likely archer kit from high elf range

Edit: Bolt thrower, as shown on GW site

[Bluenosedtitan]

Aaah, its not that one. Very similar though. Where on the elf one he has some hair going across his face, on mine he doesn't have that, and has a sideburn instead, and a definitely non-elvish ear!
Also the hair flicks up at the end on mine, whereas on the elf it points down.
