Nice work on the OSL. Provides a good focal point for the tank.

Thanks Gits, I quite like how the weapons turned out !

Little H is airbrushing his first tank tonight, a Leopard 2 in red and yellow !

Other news: Forward Nurgle Panzers!

The most colourful Leopard 2 ever, apparently the scheme is used on some game called Saints Row ???

I'm shocked....

Very nice zenithal effect on those armor plates.

Also , because I have so much time on my hands I bought these from the Warlord Games "shop" today as I was passing.
The shop is actually the warehouse and you get shown around all these racks and racks of wallet empty- ers ! A great place if you like historical miniatures.

I'm in two minds to either convert the whole lot to 40k zombies or use as weathered to fethWW2 mini's and start a whole new game, hey if the boy can do it why can't I ???

Thoughts anyone ?

Thanks matey !

A bit of random and a bit of tidying up stuff that's been on going for ever tonight .

Knocked up a few plague bearers for no real reason and then had a proper crack at finishing some Land Rhinos , varnish is still sticky I'll put them together tomorrow.

.

//They look good. A bit upside-down but good none-the-less.

Great plague bearers especially liking the standard with the scratch built banner, the bladed end doubles as a weapon nice very nice.

As for the rhinos I thought my man flu had finely got to breaking point and my vision had been compromised, either that or they weren't antibiotics the doc gave me

Either way the paint work looks great always liked your marines paint scheme

Looking great as always Big H, even if they are upside down.

As far as the zombies for 40k or make a new army....I'm on the fence, has to be your choice. I don't play(or paint) as much as I used to, but I always seem to be filling my 40k collection with non 40k stuff just because I have THAT collection. I love all sorts of models, but want them to fit into my existing collection. So when I buy old warmachine models, I think how they'll fit into my 40k games. I think it is the horror of knowing that if I actually bought WWII models for WWII games, I would have to start a new system; which in turn would escalate my collector's addiction and I would have to buy more than the few squads that COULD fit into my 40k collection and take two or four whole new armies for another game system.

Ugh.

But that's just me.

Oh, unless it is stuff for Hero Quest or some other table top RPG.

But Marines fighting their way clear of a whole horde of zombie plague imperial guard WWII models....pretty cool.

Obligatory upside-down rhino comment.

Plague bearers look real cool. I love that model with the fly-head and axe.

D

Apple's interpretation on the right way up strikes again?

It looks fine if you click on the image... btw.

Some Fine looking tanks there mate, the weathering is coming along nicely.

Thanks for the comments guys, yeah the photo is apples fault , I don't know why it does that !

A game where a squad of marines have to get from one end of the table to the other , with only two turns of ammo left and unlimited nazi zombie guard could be fun !

Anyhow, varnish is dry , I like how I weathered these two , less rust but more grime !

Ok , does anyone know how to cure upside down pic syndrome? It's upside down if I load it the right way up or if I turn it over , I have 6 pics and can't face them all this way !
Arrrrrgggghhnn

Holy gak I see a flying rhinos have I been drinking no it's your iPhone

Apparently after a quick easy goggle search it has something to do with the way you take the picture using your apple device, it will show up correctly on any Apple device but when converted over to Windows it reverts the picture to the format of which it was taken something to do with the EXIF file being ignored or something. Apparently if you take picture with the volume buttons facing down on your phone it will take the pic the right way up, but if the volume buttons are facing up when you take the pic it will process them upside down there are some apps you can use to stop this but it slows your device down apparently.

Anyway hope that helps some as I have no idea as I have just read it myself, love the paint job great work and scheme as always, are you in the UK now ?

Hey LDD ! Thanks for the info ! I'll make an effort to sort out the pics when I get back , working at the minute .

Is that a long barreled vindicator?

It's totally awesome whatever it is.

Definitely.

The metal terminator librarian will be part of Little H's collection of randoms.
The Sig-marines , again all a bit random, but l quite like the look of them combined with a Grey Knight spruce. If I'm honest I think I'm making them because I can !

Little H did a fair bit of the work on these two.

That deserves to be exalted, so there. Nice work.

Will be waiting to see them painted.

(Sorry, couldn't help it)

EDIT: PS: Nice to to to see your pics upright, BTW!

Excellent. Coming along very well.
