Hey guys,

After seeing some of the great stuff on dakka, I feel obligated to share some of my work and hopefully get some tips on painting. I've gotten a lot more stuff done since these photos were taken, and i'll post them as soon as I get a chance. I've recreated to the best of my ability John Shaffer's ridiculous Organ Gun conversion from way back when, and hopefully I'll get a picture soon.

I'm planning on getting snow bases and represent the melting snows/spring with burnt grass look to show the hold beginning a spring campaign.

Hope you guys enjoy!




I've sinced changed the colour of those bronze bits off his head, I wasn't sure if I liked them. Thoughts?





I've planned out a 2000 pt force, but now i'm debating whether I should get some slayers or stick with the (relatively acceptable) BFSP miners. Any ideas fellow dakkites?

I like that the metalics are a bit subdued on this model. Very nice!

@Gen. Lee Losing:
thanks for the kind words. The subdued metal looking is something I'm most proud of, hopefully I can show off the rest of the army soon!

nice

punkisntdeadyet, nice Ironbreakers, really nice. way better than mine.

Hey all, thanks again for the kind words.

I should have an opportunity to take some more pictures this weekend. I shall try and get them up for sunday!

Nice work. Is it wrong to mention that I originally read the thread title as involving stunty underwear?

@Flinty & corpsesarefun: haha nice. well played good sirs!

Hey guys,

Finally got a chance to take some pictures. Unfortunately the sun wasn't being too co-operative, and some of the photos came out a little dark. I'll take some more tommorow.

Also you can probably notice nothing's been based yet. Still looking for some burnt grass. Anyone have a good cheap brand/option?

Looks good man I love the muted Color Scheme!

Here's my engineer. Really had a great time painting him, despite gotten a couple of chips along the way that I need to fix :(.
I should probably invest in some dullcoat.



With flash.


Also, I found this gem when I got home. Does anyone remember this game?
It was my first computer game I ever bought, and probably the most fun I had as an 8 year old.

I apologize i did not log out of my system when I left for lunch and someone found this to be funny apparently

Lovely Dwarfs! Glad to see more WFB projects on Dakka.
