Hello DakkaDakka!

So this is going to be my new P&M Blog space. If you are not familiar, you can see the beginnings of it all, starting here:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/348091.page
I have decided to make a new topic because the old one is called "vehicle conversions", and well as time has been going that is just too limiting of a space for me.

So what do I have pictures of for you this time around...
Work Completed:
3 Burna Boyz + Mek Boy (I'll try to get better pictures soon)
1 Painboy on bike conversion (this was a difficult conversion, but turned out pretty good)

Work In Progress:
The Battle Wagon (still waiting for the options kit to come in with the deff rolla)

So here is whats on deck that I don't have pictures of, just to keep you interested for next week or two:
3 really awesome nobz on bike conversions with PK's (hand made a few cybork arms that turned out really good)
Ghaz...really gnarly model, however I am extremely disapointed with the amount of flash and just gak that I need to cut off and the amount of clean up this is going to take before I can even start on him. (he is still in box)
Vampire Lord on Zombie Dragon (or ghoul Lord on Terrorgheist), however I decide to model it...still NIB, expect a few minor conversion on this guy; especially if I go with the vampire lord, cuz his pose on the dragon is so ugly I will not allow that.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I have to say that its kind of upsetting how bad the photos came out...I guess I need to get a lense that is a bit more close up, small object oriented...especially on the wagon, the detail on the red armour, just did not pop out like it does when you see it, it just looks (from the pictures to be scruffy), when its in person, it is an 8 or 9 out of 10 for paint job.

I think this section would be suited to blogs.

Yea the P&M Blog section might be better, iv alerted a mod to move it.

Nice Orks aswell.

Hello again,

So some more updates, getting some work done on one of the nob bikers, and slowly hitting the hard to get parts on the wagon...

Built all 3, and am posting some step by step progress of a new painting technique I am trying out.

BIG TIP:
(Paint the wagon tracks before you glue them to the wagon!!!)

Hi All,

Been a while since I've posted up here. I've been extremely busy with my other facets of life. But alas I have injured myself during a jiu jitsu tournament and have time to do this again :-D, which is of course nice because I sorta miss it.

Anyways, onto the stuff that you all are probably interested in...

Work Completed (All pictured Below):
Another Burna Boy
Based All Burna Boyz
2 Shoota Boyz (based as well)
Completed 2 Nob Bikerz (doc included) and based them
Completed Ghaz and based.

Work en Progress:
Break from Orcs - Vampire Counts Zombie Dragon - slight water effects issue with him. Was considering putting a mek boy in the saddle where the vampire lord goes and givin him some controlly bits and some generators, but I'm not really sure. The base is so massive, I originally just intended this peice as purely for display. It will be receiving a Grade A+ Paint job with no short cuts.

Still trying to convince myself to complete the battle wagon's wheels.

By the way, its really frickin awesome to see the progress in painting ability. I was looking at some of the first posts from this blog and damn, its come a long ways. Kinda fun to see other P&M Blogs doin the same.

P.S. Please rank some of my gallery images, it would be pretty stellar to know what I can improve on.

So it has been a while since I have posted anything, I have been very distracted with work and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. But I have kept painting, and I have a pretty long list of completed items to put up.
1. 20 boyz (with 2 big shootas) and Nob w/PK && BP
2. Nob w/PK && BP and eavy armor.
4. Deff Kopta (almost done with a second one)
5. Battle wagon is done with a deff rolla.

I also changed how I am basing the models. So here are some pictures, enjoy. I'll post the boyz and battle wagon tomorrow I think.
