Having dealt
with some pretty heavy personal stuff over the last couple of weeks
its time to get back on the horse and have some damn fun. That is to
say, getting back to some hobby and making a tentative stab at White
Dwarf's Warhammer Resolution Challenge.
To this end,
this week I want to complete the model I have chosen as January's
Monthly Challenge, the newly released Dark Angels Master Lazarus...
… with a
couple of modifications. To wit: my absolute favourite Space Marine
head (the Sternguard Marine who looks like Charles Dance) and a 3D
printed Angels of Defiance shoulder pad from Shapeways. I have an odd
things about Primaris Marines in that I kind of hate how they look
bolted in to otherwise old-style Space Marines but I kind of like
them as their own thing. Thus, grabbing some shoulder pads off
Shapeways to do an Ultima Founding chapter.
The Angels
of Defiance also have a quartered colour scheme (bone and black)
which is something I've wanted to try out for years. I even started a
Novamarines army many, many years ago but didn't have the patience or
skill to pull it off, especially the white the colour scheme called
for. The contrast between the bone and the black should be a lot more
forgiving, though, as I know I can paint those pretty well.
Now, to
actually get this done.
