Blog Beardy Gekko's random assortment of things

I'm going to put some models together tomorrow (Primaris Reivers) and hopefully start painting some more Intercessors. (that's primaris tactical marines to you) As I have the house to myself for once! What Bliss is this?
 
So as usual my pans went to hell yesterday, however I asked my two year old what colour space marine he would like and the consensus was purple.

So i started this fella, who is in the very rough early stages but I quite like the purple none the less! 20170807_153433.jpg

Good they should start early before you know it it will be a full emperor's children army. ;)

Quite pleased with where this is going, but I need a new black as the one i'm using is very shiny/not covering very well.

Are you keeping him shiny?

You could use that photo as reference to add OSL ;)
 
I quite like the red shiny actually :) probably not though, just base coats at the moment.

He looks good shiny, I'm getting really excited for painting my Death guard all this new 40k stuff is fantastic, I can't wait to get cracking but I'm trying to finish everything else first!
 
He looks good to me, but personally I don't care for the wreath of victory leaves on his head. Just my personal preference, too roman looking.

Is he going to wind up being the boss of these guys?:



I am guessing Blood Angels
Yes Blood Angels and the wreathe is one of their things I guess. I'm quite into them :P
 
I kinda like these new Marines. They are, (like N810, NIGHTBRINGER, and Bowser are in real life) seven heads tall.

Are the new heads and the old heads comparable (or better) identical in size?

The heads and Shoulder pads are the same size, hence me being able to use the BA upgrades from before. I couldn't fit a chest piece on without quite a bit of green stuffing though.
