Is that Homer riding that bike?

PH ultramarine style heads?

Looove those maxmini(?) heads. I'm using a few in my Badab army. Which coincidentally, is inspired wholly by this blog, so go you!

This is one of my favourite blogs, please keep up the work.

I've seen these guys randomly from time to time but hadn't actually seen the blog. That being said, seeing the whole army as it stands and your upcoming units, all I have to say is WOW! I'm personally a huge fan of the more obscure chapters, especially when they're done so masterfully as this army.

I reallllllyyyy want to see that biker done, he's looking amazing already!

Very nice I must profess grey death. I look forward to seeing more of it.

Is ... Is that Marine ordained with a Handlebar Moustache?

Big pimpin, as always. Keep the blog coming!

Wow! Is that a crusade helmet on the biker? If so nice concersion Grey

Thanks for the comments folks!

The head is from Maxmini, picked up a set of them and some other stuff a while back and this if the first project I've made use of their stuff. Big big fan.

Here's where the bike is right now:



Still a bunch more to do. Clean up the black, highlight the black, pick out details, weather a little bit more using some paint washes and my weathering compact. Should be done by the end of the day! Stay tuned ^_-.

YOU'RE BACK!

*Ahem* It's certainely all looking very good from what I can see...

MOAR NOA!

Hey Grey Death how did you do your yellow? It looks close to the shade I am thinking of doing an imperial fist army?

Thanks,
Chappy P!

mmm, delicious yellow

Heh, thanks Cosmic, didn't know I was ever really 'gone' though ^_-.

C P, the yellow is done one of two ways, bestial brown > german camo orange ochre > yellow ochre OR German Camo Orange Ochre > Gryphonne Sepia Washed into crevices > Yellow Ochre. Final highlight (very very small highlights) with Dark Flesh. All Vallejo Model Color except Bestial Brown of course.

++++++++++++++

Bike is finished!





Above you can see all of the recon elements together in a family picture. I'm really enjoying them. They are very rewarding to paint and model. Hope to do more in the future!

The recon boyz look fantastic. *looks at his own painted models, sad face* I am forever impressed by your weathering.

Fantastic as always! The Maxmini head is awesome.

Thanks guys.

I figured since the helmet seems to be getting a lot of attention, I should link where to get them.

More power to small companies like Maxmini.

That's fantastic weathering, and your use of yellow is very impressive.

As always Grey Death, truly astounding, keep up the good work!

Totally astonishing work, GD. The group shots are really cool. Keep up the Emprah's work!

Looks great mate and good to see you back at the SOM's!

A couple of minor points though. Aside from the bit of a misaligned front fairing, the gold on the trim looks a little shiny and clean when compaired to the yellow camo scheme with the chipping etc.

A little damage on the trim would look good too and help unify the appearance.

Otherwise, looks great, the chipping looks brilliant, no mean feat on a camo scheme!

Cheers,

Dante

Thanks guys!

Dante, This was a refurbish piece from a friend, hence the fender issue. The gold is a bit clean, but it's in the same fashion through the entire force ^_-....and it's a bit late to go changing things.

MOAR!!



I really need to bring the other light over here for photos....

About halfway finished with the new dread. Still a bunch of work to go. Likely another day or two until he's finished.



Fitting right in already though ^_-.

Can't wait for the finished product!

Does the razorback come with assult cannons?

No, but the Redeemer/Crusader kit does.

dude i absolutely love this army! it inspired me partly to do the army i'm currently working on! you may have seen it but if not you can find it at: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/274891.page i'd love to hear what you think of it!

Thanks Nurglitch.

He's done! I'm happy with how he came out. A bit more weathered than Perseus, but right on par with other armor in the army, he fits in nicely. Not sure what point value having him finished puts me at, but I am looking forward to fielding this army again more and more.

what grass do you use on the bases?

Your sons of medusa are looking great. I checked out your technique for doing battle damage and was entrigued about how you paint your space wolves?

Awesomesauce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
