Here we'll be telling all about us and sharring our work with ya'll. We'll probably even put up some battle reports of the games we go through. I can start off with some stuff my bro and I did. Our user names btw are Corndoggy (my bro) The bringer (also my bro) and Andrecus (not my bro )

Some interesting stuff here. I really like the orky terrain, and the killa kan looks good too. Nice and orky looking.

You could make your orks even better by using the GW washes, the clothing on that boy looks a bit too flat as is. The skin looks good.

We have this really neat tool with this special metal wire and we run electricity through it and it cuy=ts through foam like better. It work real great for the basic structure of terrain.

Those pill box thingies look HAWT!!

Hello All,
I am the (not so) illustrious Corndoggy, (brother # 1 ) and i am the nid player of the group. Currently i own the Tyranid Assault Brood + a box of stealers.
Everything is assembled except for 6 stealers and my last fex (love the kits, so many pointy nid bitz!! )

Pics of some of my stuff

Nice jobs on the conversions.
Their pose gave them tons of character.

My bro and I (older) are planning on making an ork barracks. So far it looks pretty neat. I think we're going to use elmers this time instead of hot glue (too messy...strings absolutley everywhere). Maybe we can start that tonight >_<

Thanks
They were tons of fun to do, even thoguht the BL's right rendy thumb kept breaking off...

"To be, or not to be, that is the question"

love it
broodlord looks pretty sweet

lol
'zactly. Perhaps he is pondering assaulting a Termie squad...

Here is some of my terrain. None of is it finished.

not the best idea for a stealer
leave that to 2 stab fex's

Then here's some stuff I made out of foam. I just primered it with a special non-eating-foam primer.

Those stealers are awesome!! I'm diggin the bunker/walls, everything looks pretty cool guys! Keep posting!!

Great start; a lot of creativity with items commonly available. I am looking forward to seeing what the terrain looks like painted up. Keep up the good work.

Wait... could you use floam for this?

Wait, do you mean foam?

You could use it, but I don't know if I would suggest it.

I've been using this special fomy substance that you can even rub away with your fingers. Its really easy to form into any shape.

Is it Oasis?
Also known as Florist's Foam, Wet Foam, and "That funny green stuff nanny keeps her flowers in".



If it is, It's VERY fragile. I'd suggest getting a good few layers of hardening laquer on there.
Or just keep on using the insulation foam you guys have on that fort.

Great work though! Keep it up!

Wow guys, good stuff so far!

Hi, I'm Brother Captain Andrecus. I am effectively the fourth brother... I'm the brotha from anotha motha! Lol... Haha...

Yah, I know it's horrible. It's all I had up my sleeve... sorry.

Anyhoo.

I'm the lone Marine player in this bunch of filthy Xenos, so all you loyal Imperials out there can heave a sigh of relief to know that there is indeed a contemporary to the Hamlet-Stealer up above... It's a Hamlet-Termi! :-)

Of course, Corndoggy's conversion is much better than mine. It's hard to convert Terminators to look like Hamlet... Heh.

Anyhow. I have a couple of pics that are worth posting here. Namely my Ironclad Conversion, which I did recently.
It's set up with a Hurricane Bolter and Seismic Hammer.


That's the armor on him.


The whole conversion.


The Hurricane Bolter. (Not many people run Ironclads with this setup. IDK why...)


The Seismic Hammer up close...


He's striking a pose!

I'm known as Brother Captain Andrecus on the Bolter and Chainsword, which is where I spend most of my time. I also have an account with Imperial-Literature.net, which is a great place for fan-fiction writers and readers.

Soo... That's not all I've got, but I'm running on empty now, so I'll post more on the morrow, I guess.

lol at shakespere nid

Really amazing conversions!

Good job.

I used Shellak to seal it up and harden it a bit. It seems to have worked. I rub my finger and nothing comes off.


And yes, its florists foam. My dad has a load of that stuff, so I just leech it off of him.

A really promising start on the terrain!

Yah! That stuff. It's really weird stuff. Once you primer it it kind of petrifies and strengthens up a bit. although it's still a little week. You can make some really cool sculps with it. Especially ruins.

Whoops, didn't see your post above bringer *slaps self*

We have this stone textured spray that's really nice for giving that stony tecture to terrain. I didn't use it though cuase it would have gotten rid of most of the cracks and detail I put into my little walls.

Well, we got a lot of the terrain primered. Now all we do is have to paint it. I was able to crank out an ork yesterday in a litle bit of free time. It took forever to paint him because of all the detail. I hate going over lines when I paint, so I'm really pickey about un-eveness.I couldn't batch paint to save my life. Well, after I wash it's decent. It's Jungle themed

Post up those pics, Brother!
(Oh, wait. This isn't the B&C... Do they still do the whole "Brother" thing here? IDK, I'm still calling you Brother. Force of habit...)

I painted the first half of my Terminator Chaplain. Frankly, that was the easy part, just going over the black undercoat with more black. I'm going to apply Vallejo gloss to the armor once I'm done, to shiny it up.

I also painted the skull and the parchment loincloth thing. The Crozius and Stormbolter will come next. Then, the gold bits on the armor, and then detailing and finishing touches!

Then, I'll make him a base. Probably a couple of Xeno heads or something... Actually, that gives me an idea.

Bringer, do you mind lending me a couple of your spare Kroot heads? This is Elder Chaplain Elijah van Kroot-mulcher we're talking about. (There's a funny story behind that name. I'm not about to tell it, though. Bringer would get mad at me. Although he did win the game... So... Yah. I mulched his Kroot with my Termi Chappy and three Tac Marines. Totally. Lolz.)

Anyhoo. More photobucket! For the winz!


My two Terminators that are actually painted.


Another picture.

I am a proponent of the style of play known as "Terminator Spam". It's a rare style, little known of. And I'm not very good at it. But it's fun. Any excuse for a 2+ armor save... (Artificer Armor falls under this category as well...)


That's my converted Terminator Sarge, he stands in as a Terminator Armored Captain every once in a while. His name? Why it's "Brother Captain Andrecus", of course! Lolz.

I hate the hairless grampa-Marine heads. It's just one more reason for the guys to make fun of me. Also, I have hair and my face isn't covered in metal service studs. So I made a headswap. Easy and fun. Minimal greenstuff required!


A close-up.

So... That's your daily dose of Tactical Dreadnought Armored Goodness!

'Lending' eh? implying that he would get them back?

I find your developing propensity for xenos heads disturbing

nice work on the scout -> termie head not sure why i havent seen that before, looks good.

In other news, I will hopefully be finishing more spinegaunts tonight.


so...many...carapaces >.<
