Got the Goliath built late last night, did some of the conversion this morning, primed it and started the rust under coat

Wow.

One question though: whats that supposed to be? Will it be run as a rock grinder?

Ah sorry I was tired when I posted lol

It's being orkified was started as a trukk project.

I'm not sure now what I'll run it as - maybe a trukk, but it's looking like if I can put a crew together it might make a grot tank

Can always do a looted wagon too.

running a bit behind on pictures, but this is the WIP of the rust undercoat.

Currently painting its top coat atm.

uploaded from my phone so I think some may be in the wrong order - basically this is, basecoat, weathering, chipping

Nice weathering, Guilden'.

Thanks Dr H!

Doing stage two of weathering: adding earth (weathering powder) Thinking I will need to go and apply more directly to a few areas, as whilst the ram came out very well, it doesn't quite match the rest of the vehicle.




First time trying a bit of an oil wash, so I'm waiting for it to dry (impatiently). Then I'm going to go back through and do details etc. Also need to finish the guns and such.

Nice job with the weathering powder!

Awesome job ob the looted Goliath. Looks really cool.

EDC

Trukk/Looted Wagon/Battlewagon whatever it ends up being officially lol

Good job, very orky.

lol at the message underneath.

couple small pieces I'm working on while finishing off my house for the LoER contest:

Good lookin rust buckets there, Guildenstern .

lil pic of my fountain's water sources

They're a bit further along now (I started the left one over again, which is why it's missing it's water atm) so I should have some more complete pictures up in the morning. Waiting now for the PVA "snow" mix to dry!

Nice work on the Goliath, love the message on the underside.

Fountains are looking great too.

EDC

Thanks edc!





Fountains are almost done - just need to add statue to the round one, and a bit more snow effects overall to both. Still waiting for water effects to dry, since I'm layering them.

Then off to something non-terrain related I think for a while!

I put my son's mortis engine mostly together, going to try to paint next.

Excellent work on the fountains, they look awesome.

Pure genius.

Also, these Goliaths cry out to be orkified, and you've done a great job. Awesome.

@Fifty - thanks! I bet many are being orkified as we speak hehe

@edc thanks again! hopefully these are some better pics here below

Time to move on and finish my LoER entry!

Nice job on the fountains. Liking the round one in particular.

Fountain looks great, but that Goliath is outstanding.

Thx Cam btw Really tempted to order another one tbh lol but I really need to pay more attention to what my army actually needs now (Lootaz).

Doing some work on my Battlewaaaaghon and my son's Mortis Engine.








primed and white basecoat done on cloud/fog/ethereal part. 4 coats.







Battlewaaaaghon accumlated WIP pics as of now:



I've just gotten it primed, so hoping to get to some 'real' work on it soon. I have this nagging feeling I need more gubbins in the engine compartment but am lacking inspiration atm.

The Battlewaaaaghon is looking great!

You truly are a herald of Gork (or Mork)!

EDC

haha @EDC I wish =D

Here's the painting started finally yaaaaaaaaaaaay!



I'm trying to fix the back wheels now :( I got spray primer on them, and they're a soft plastic, which I didn't think about before I sprayed >< now they're kinda... squishy/melty :( I tried some gloss varnish on them, but it hasn't helpd. Going to try to do a brush on primer and see if that'll work. Otherwise, I am afraid I will end up having to replace the wheels

Got some more painting done tonight. Most of the basecoat is done. Still need to do the driver, the gun, the roller thingy and the grot mechanics. Then washing, highlighting, and lots of weathering. It's quite bright atm but won't be for long really. Also got an idea for one more add one but have to see if I can make it work.

I took a LOT of pics (OK 12,) of the final product of my Battlewaaaghon - they're all in my gallery so go check them out if you <3

Glorious, looks stunning, and "rite proper orky."

You have been very busy lately, great stuff all round. So what is up next?

Thanks! I think it needs a touch more weathering but we'll see. I tried a couple new things, which I kinda almost liked... the spattering of red paint for blood, that worked ok, once I figured out how much water to use to get it to actually splatter, instead of drip or stick to the brush. The other thing was scratches with paint to represent places where the metal wore... I didn't like that as much :(

Anyway! next... well I do have 6 bikers sitting on my desk calling to me but first I need to do more Boyz

More immediately I'm going to work on finishing my son's Mortis Engine.

I did some more work on my son's VC army - working on Mortis Engine for my "big project" but also trying to get these guys painted to table top and off my desk!






They're a bit further along now, but that's the base coat and wash. I wanted to do some thing a little different on them so I am messing with the green/purple combo and one is more an albino, or light flesh coloured one.

Also these guys got put together a bit ago:




I'm going to work on a few of them for the SM monthly paint!

What weathering powder do you use for the dirt effect, and how do you apply it? Looks great.

Liking those ugly brutes, kinda liking the thought of sticking rat heads on them. Mmm. Any way, great stuff and Marines look awesome.
