this i am quite looking forward to

Alright, I got mah guy assembled.
He is the dwarf master engineer guy from BFSP.

Thinking of putting him on a more interesting base, dont know if can be bothered

PICS!

lol bebop^^

so i am made for steampunk and my army needed some heavy stormtroopers anyway so i opted for a stormtrooper in heavy armor...namly a terminator armor gone steampunk with a serious twist...

numerous bitz will suffer some heavy filing and cutting and glueing...to achive a certain steamy look...for this work i hopefully will get rid of most if not all skulls as my model will be a mostly skullfreezone^^

i begun to get rid of the aquilla of the torso and then all the other skulls of the arms...
used a shoota from a bunch of ork bitz i got hold of and also i used this on some termy arms...which i am in fact not atm know how to mount to the model... i think there will be some heavy GS work involved in the nearer future...

atm i am musing how to even more flesh out the steamy powerpack of the mini...and i have to think up a way for what kind of base i want the model to go with...

here are the first pics of my work anyways...any helpfull comments are greatly apreciated!!

(sorry for the last blurry pic)

Heres my next WIP pics. This guy is starting to derail slightly, and not on purpose. I had an idea in mind, but my execution of it seems to not match what i expected. Oh well, this was more just a break for me anyways and a chance to try something new. Oh and PS, it appears a little glaze hasnt dried so the back pic looks a bit shinier because its still a tiny damp. Here we are on the road to warm and cool white. Quite a bit further to go.

ok guys... seems i have to keep up the pace or you guys storm over my rotting carcass^^

bebop...is this only washes to the clothes or is it iceblue and assurmen blue together?

looks very cold...what will the color of the gun be?

also i did some first GS work on my steamknight...behold:










what do you think? there will be an oven door added later...so the model is far from done yet... also i like to try to add some texture via GS later on...ony ideas as to what kind of texture?

Vik your model looks freaking amazing man! i cant wait to see you paint this!

As far as washes. No washes. Ive started with Ice Blue, then began mixing in space wolves grey, more and more, then white...each stage is then glazed 2x with very very clear asurmen blue. Almost no tint at all. The armor plates are also not washed. Just started with deepest shade and painted up. Dheneb Stone then Menoth White Highlight then more skull white. This guy is taking quite a long time...(more than my Harker) I dont always do it this way. This model is my own study in painting white, and i already know what id do differently next time.

I like that steam-punk soldier, I have just the one to cut him out of it too!

Magnotz!



He started out pretty plain

I'm in. I've got an Eldar Scorpian Exarch thats been sitting a while.

After all, Magnotz had the extra armored shoulder plates added, but I wanted him to have more, so made his twin shoota into a Kustom Skorcha shoota using a hellhound nozzle and old fuel tanks from the old tank kits.

Not enough I added part of a Killa Kan Klaw to his power klaw

All of this refitting I felt made him look meaner.

And bring us back to the finished Magnotz, ready for action!

Shasolenzabi, you are added as well.

lol... shaso...a tincan- opener^^

at bebop...i still marvel at the patience to work a color up from shade to shade.... i understand the priocess but i think this is a methode beyond my abilities...would cost me too much time where i could ahve started two or even three other things as well^^

Cool! I am in!

See da Kan Openah always works!

I will put up a pic tomorrow...

Now to pose Magnotz before a white screen. I hope he sits still!

just belt him one over ´is `ead
