From outer space (Starships/BFG)

Haven't build and painted much from 40k miniatures in the last time, so updates for the Chaos/Death Guard will come in some next posts.

But I have started to paint some starships.
They are all 3d printed and mainly for BFG, but I wanted to use the Full Thrust rules, because the are free and include rules for designing own ships.

Painted chaos fleet: 

Grandcruiser, heavy cruiser with fighter squadrons and strike cruiser with boarding ships.

Painted Models: 

Chaos grandcruiser, chaos heavy cruiser, Black Templars strike cruiser, chaos strike cruiser and boarding ships.

All ships with a lot unpainted ships from different fleets: 

Chaos, Imperial, Space Marines and Mechanicus.

Black Templars #5 (custom decals)

I have made some custom decals for my Black Templars.

They are only the chapter heraldic crosses, but I needed some smaller ones for shoulder pads with name plates. And in the newer Space Marine kits aren’t Black Templars crosses anymore.

I have used some cheap decal paper from Amazon for laser printers, worked very well.For the handling after the printing I find the liquids from Microscale very useful, which can be simply applied with a brush.
After the printing simply apply Liquid Decal Film for the sealing on the decal paper and let it dry. Then when you apply the decals first brush some Micro Set on the miniature. Applying then works like with every normal water slide decals (put some drops water on the decal and after it loses, slide it on the prepared place on the miniature and take the access water with some paper towel).

For a better adhesion and to minimize wrinkles apply Micro Sol after.

Chaos Knights #2 and Black Templars #4

The Chaos Knight is ready build and painted with the exception of the head and the heraldic shield, which are also painted but I wait with the assembly, till I have finished all heraldic.
For this I have bought some decal paper, which hopefully arrives in the next days, so that I can print some custom decals.
The knight also got a Icarus autocannon beside the two gatling guns.

Besides the knight I also started to build some more Black Templar from some leftover Space Marines. 
Next week the Faith and Fury campaign book will get released, so I hope they will get some good rules like the chapters of the first founding.

Black Templars #3

I have finished the 15 Black Templars Space Marines and they are ready for battle.
They can be set up as two 5-man squads with plasmagun and combi-plasma and one 5-man squad with a lasercannon.

Black Templars #2 and Terrain ('Anphilion Base' and crystals).

The 15 Black Templars bodys are now finished.
Backpacks and bolter got the ground colors and started there gunmetal details.
In the next stage some the remaining details get colors and all parts must be glued together.

I also started on some additional crystals, to enlarge the crystal field.
At the mement the crystals are only build and primed.

Inspired by the Anphilion Base from FW I  tested so cut some octagons.
On the second try it works pritty well so I build a prototyp of my version from that base and also start painting it. The roof is removable so also the inside is playable.

Black Templars #1

The Black Templars from the last post got some reinforcement.
All still wip, but the primary colors are done. Next step are highlights and some corrections. 
And if I'm not painting, I search the missing weapons and bolters. 

 

Deathwing #4 and some Black Templars

The Deathwing got some more colors. No the normal Terminators have almost all base colors. Some small details and I can start so ink and highlight them.

With the new Chapter Approved 2018 all models got cheaper in points so that I must change the list a little. Maybe the Scriptor is cut for the Chaplain (wich is still just black) and some more normal Terminator.

I haven't painted much, so still a lot work on the Deathwing.

But I reassambled some Black Templar Marines, which also got the base colors.
