That oil wash really worked wonders!

As for cool unit ideas, some sort of thunder hammer shield terminators always look cool, or you could have some grim veterans in really old marks of armour defending a shrine.

The video looks good, but the tank in the back should shake and rumble around as it moves, as if moving over or even flattening terrain.

The oil wash - I have that same stuff but it's very shiny/glossy when I use it. How have you used it exactly? It looks great.

For the video I think the most effective change would be to add camera shake. When the tank fires, or shells explode, the ground would vibrate and the camera ought to too. If you watch something like Saving Private Ryan the camera shakes all the time.

Thank you guys !

@Bruticus: I just mixed it with thinner and used it like a normal wash.

Rogue Wolves asked if we can put a masterclass section with painting tutorials and stuff in our campain book. Would more of you like that and if what wold you like to see in there?


So we updated the video of the Macharius, go check it out ! Added some weather effects, new sound and shaking camera.

What also might be interesing, here is our youtube channel. http://www.youtube.com/user/SevarusPrime/videos

Well I'd be curious in seeing terrain building, weathering tecniques, Paint scemes..

Hmm... so ok, tutorials and tips for modelling and painting terrain and models. Just in the book or would you also like tutorial videos in addition to the book?

Any more ideas ? Please tell us, any idea or suggestion that you have, or what you would like to see ? Anything from rules to tutorials is possible

Do you have fluff? You're so involved with this it seems hard to imagine that you don't have a bit of "flavortext" to go with all this incredible work. Perhaps play a few games and try to write not a bat-rep, but a short story to put into a page of the codex.

I'm assuming the codex is electronic, if so: Vids in will be awesome (even GW hasn't matched that yet), you have amazing pictures as well, perhaps the background of your codex would be a faded "live action" storyline that people could read as they go through the codex - a sort of glorified bat rep complete with your astounding line of photography.

Apart from that, Tutorials and plenty of glorious pics that exhalt your already incredible work is as much as I'd like to see in your AAA codex.

^ I definatly like the idea of that, fluffy batte reports are always interesting to read, and if its a digital book, throwing vids here and there would be cool too! (like your shooting leman russ videos!)

Does your 502 Arbteilung engine grease ever dry? I used some on some bases and it hasn't dried at all, gets all over my fingers if I touch it. Do you seal it some how?

ok we will work on battle reports

Did you acually use it withouth thinner... if you apply it derectly it dries out for months.. you need to thin it with wihte spirit and use it as wash.. if there is more confusion about how to use Oil colors we can make a quick video tutorial about it.

Ok guys here is some more new stuff !

New artwork, lots of new models, the citadel hotel and a Forge World fortress wall.
