I finished making one of the trucks you posted. Thanks so much for posting instructions and templates (though it was a bit hard to translate the pdf file into something that the laser cutter would read, so I had to trace it over with corel draw). I'll email a picture soon to go in the gallery.

Adding that Corel file for laser cutters would be oh-so-helpful!

I think I still have it. If you want, I can try and post it. (You'd have to tell me how. If I have to upload it somewhere or whatever.)

Edit: I do have it. Someone should tell me how to post it on the internet.

tell me if it's ok !

You, good sir, are a scholar and a gentleman.

I don't have corel myself, so I can't check it. Also, since I was printing on 6" by 12" sheets of plasticard, some of the bits from the first page are on the second page so that they would fit. Also, be careful to line it up properly, and the small vision slits are prone to warp as they are such small pieces, but they can be put back into shape using a bit of hot water.

Thanks once again.

your army is so impressive the blood pact book is for you!

Hi guys

Sorry for such a lengthy absence. No new Blood Pact just yet.

I have, however, put up a poll on my blog to determine which Blood Pact project will get my attention next. Please head on over (link in my signature) and vote!

Cheers
Dave

Love these, I will miss being able to look at excellent stuff like this while I wait for a connection at my new place.

Voted for the artillery battery, as I would love to see more armor from you.

I want to see these Bats of yours. They sound really interesting.

I voted for the aircraft. looks like its winning cant wait to see it.

one of a kind work! inspiring

Hi guys

No new work just yet, but the poll is rapidly drawing to a close and it looks like the Rapid Assault Force will be the clear winner. I'll be getting started on this project next week.

On another note, I've just had my first Bell of Lost Souls article posted. I'll be reposting it on my blog towards the end of the month. It's about how I paint the Chaos stars on the sides of my vehicles:



Check it out here If you're interested.

Thats always exciting when you get new stuff posted cheers to that dave. Also can not wait to see what you do for the rapid assault for. Question for you paint wise how do you paint the armor on the basic soldiers

What an excellent tutorial, I would of never thought of using a round base as a guide.

I think I will try this when I get around to it.

Thanks for the great tutorial, always nice to see new techniques.

Thanks guys!

@Empchild - the armor on my regular troopers is drybrushed with Tin Bitz, followed by a drybrush of Boltgun Metal, then a patchy wash of Thraka Green, a patchy wash of Leviathan Purple, followed by a wash of Devlan Mud, then Badab Black. All of that is finished off with an edging of Mithril Silver. Hope that helps.

Cheers
Dave

Very much dave I loved the idea so much I wanted to do it on my traitor gaurd.
-Cheers

Wow, lots of amazing stuff here Dave, excellent work. It's really nice to see these familiar names as it was Dan Abnett's books that got me back into WH40K after a 15 year break. Any plans to do the Vervunhive forces?

Simon

Hi guys

Following the holidays I've been able to get back into my Blood Pact. Huzzah! The readers of my blog voted for the Rapid Assault Force to be my next project. So, that's what I'm working on now.

First up, the Chaos Hellblade



And side by side with the Locust, a vector-fighter that Thomas Wynn and I are designing and building using the fins from Space Marine Drop Pods



And a shot of the Locust WIP by itself



I hope you all like them, more shots on my blog.

Cheers
Dave

Great stuff, DT. That spacecraft is going to look spectacular when finished, I am faithful. On a side note: I much enjoyed your article on BOLS. If I had a traitor army, that would be really useful! Maybe I should convert!

Just been looking through this thread, some really great work, i have seen you site too, loving your work, really like you painting style, nice and clean, i think i might have to convert to Chaos IG army once i have finished my Loyal IG, i was thinking sons of Sek or Nurg maybe. Anyways, keep it up and i'm looking forward to seeing more.

Looking great already!

Can't wait to see the hellblade painted, love that kit!

Cheers,

Dante

Yowzers! More from the master!

Excellent work, I love your converted truck, can't wait for more.

Where have you gone?!

Wow, that Hydra Truck is hot stuff. Yeah, the barrels are a little short, but frankly, I think it works with the overall look of the vehicle. Great use of West Wind heads, too.

Threadcromancy whats up with this today.
