Skye's an absolute darling. The hedgehog.......'grumpy' is putting it kindly- lol

Brother Zael looks great. He loves his paperwork.

How long did it take you to decant all the paint?

EDC

@ EDC - cheers fella. I'm still decanting the paints - just doing a few at a time. It's gonna be a while yet till my new paint racks arrive so I'm in no really hurry. Decanting is turning out to be pretty easy....except for Dawnstone......Dawnstone was a complete ass!!!

Anyhow...... Calling these 3 boys done now. Happy how they turned out. Managed to blend that odd ripped floor that Brother Scipio is having at into the resin base well enough.







With those 3 finished, I started on The Nurse. Nothing major - just rebased the skin and started sketching in the shadows. Need to get my skates on with this one as she my entry for this month's comp



And can update this damnable list too - lol

Fantastic stuff Jan. Gideon and Zael are my favourites here.

Cheers AOV

Some fancy space hulk shenanigans hereabouts. Lovely work.

Yes, great work on those Termies!

Cheers folks. Only another 8 of them to go. Lol

Up early this morning to continue on the nurse. Bit more work on the skin - building and strengthening the shadows and tones. Taking a break from the skin now but will add some stronger zen highlights later. Onto her leather coat - reinforced some of the strongest point highlights with white and started laying down initial glazes. Love this fig. Keep finding more little cool and hidden details

The decanting continues - only about another 30 to do

Got a little more done on our lady of mercy here. Finished off the feathers and added a little texture to them and made a start on the metal tank and exhaust on her side. Liking how the metals are looking so far. I do love playing with Metallics

Cheers for stopping by

Lovely job so far buddy! Great stuff

Cheers AoV. Really am enjoying painting this freaky lady

Hmmm - Not much love for 'The Nurse' eh....she probably not everyone's cup of tea I guess. I'm loving painting her actually - trying out some new things and its refreshing painting something really quite different to what I usually do.

Anywho... in other news - busy weekend ahead (save any mad gak popping up and brexiting my plans )

First of my new paint racks arrived so need to get that built up - oohhhhh arts'n'crafts time - yay!!!



bigger than I thought it would be

Then need to get the last third or so of the GW paints decanted......it's been......cathartic actually - who knew?!!!



And more arts'n'crafts - turn this pile into a vignette base for the nurse.....plan is in my head but it's gonna be tricky.....need to do some sketching/plans first I think



Glad the weekend has arrived - that was one gakky, icky, gakinfested week. Have a great weekend everyone and hobby on mes amis

<Poke>

Am on that too Az!!!

Today though is a day for building some stuff - namely a vig base for the nurse. Could be the most tricky one I've done yet......

ooooooooooooo spiral stairs. Is she shoving someone down the stairs?

nah - there may be a few point details on the stairs though. kinda feeling my way through here - still a shaky on how i'm going to get these stairs right as they are made from metal grating and not easier to work plasticard...... I-Beam girder work is done though. Onto the wall next

Progress! All day at this - the wife was less than happy with all the saw dust but getting there

Intriguing! Can't wait to see it all come together!

Should be pretty cool when all done. Need to attack the spiral stairs yet which is gonna take some delicate pinning And that clear plastic rod is not the easiest to drill into. Then onto treating the wood, adding a pool and other stuff.

This might put it into better perspective

Looking very promising,

Those display bases of yours are really a sight to behold!

Cheers Littletower. Looks a bit rough at the mo but the main structure is now built and just needs the stairs and some other hard details. Should look much better once primed which (hopefully) will get done this evening

Here's where we're at now with the base for The Nurse. Snuck home from work at lunch time to make and put on the steps and nearly put the Dremel through my finger! Built and primed now onto the painting!

That is looking great Jan. Love the model as well, very creepy.

Cheers Mym Base has come together pretty well. I love this fig though she might be a bit out there for some folk. Such a shame that the KS didnt suceed as Thirdman Studio had a whole pile more beautiful sculpts in line....ah well :(

Nice stuff Jan

Cracking work, I really envy those with scratch build/modelling skills...I am just useless in that regard.

Awesome base and model! I like the idea of the pool at the bottom.

Cheers All this was the trickiest build yet. Usually the base I make are floor based so wanted to do something suspended. Was a bit fiddley at times - making the interlocking girders/I-beams and locking them on to the wall and those fething steps but has come out grand and not wonky which I was afraid of. Painting starts tomoro. Lots of ideas to put in for that still need to actually finish the bloody nurse as well!!! And I've got ......3 days!!! Oh goody!!!!

Snuck home from work at lunchtime to get a little painty painty in (Tuesdays; 4 hour lunch break - I'd be mad not to ) and Mr Postman delivered my new paint racks. Buildy builds and we've finally got the hobby area sorted and from this .......



To this.......



So much better now. Still have about a dozen paints to decant but that's easy enough.

Did get the base metals down on the base as well. Next comes the filthification!!!!
