Red Dwarf is on ABC2 at the moment. Wednesday nights i think the add said.

If you do buy the deamon book at least get it from the States or the UK. Do you really want to pay $80 for a book that in all likelyhood will be exactly as you said?

Depends on how it is for them too. Might attain omnipotence and just know the rules somehow.

Yeah.... Omnipotence... Sure.... *shifty eyes*

Seems there's a doubles tourney coming up in the area as well in April. Thinking about going for it, but not sure which army yet. I kind of have the time to fix up the Eldar I have as well.

Being a non-gw store I could also likely do some easy conversions to pad out the small amount of Tau I have around the place.

If there is an over abundance of Chaos/deamons/xenos go with The S.o.B. Because you know... Cleanse! Flame! Burn! and also HERESY!

If there are too many uppity loyalists then rock the Deamons.

Even mix of both then take Eldar. Because the upstart lesser races deserve death.

Depends on what I end up with I guess. My brother wants to do it with me so that's sort of Dark Eldar of Necrons to go with.

So ready to prime the Exorcist, then I drop it.


I still got the rest of the parts primed though. I have also been looking at parts to use for the third Exorcist. Probably paint the two at roughly the same time.

Some sane stuff like these.

Plastic is decent and they open in half, the shape would be a very good substitution for the FW Exorcist parts.

Then some less sane stuff like Xbox 360 power ports.
Which this picture I found on Google will give a decent idea of the scale of it once you get it off of the board.

It makes more sense when I explain that we keep/get some broken ones for parts. Then I've already used a heat sink in another project, why not.

Yes, musically themed for a bit.

Started work on the organ player while the rest sits and cures for a bit.

This is my favourite part of this thread, watching it transform from an unpainted piece of metal.


I've also built a second objective marker as the doubles tournament requires our team to have five. I'll probably be building a third as well, but have other ideas besides just another banner.

Objective marker looks good. Simple yet effective. Nice blue on the Sisters tabardy cloth thing. What is it, turquoise washed with blue?

Just turquoise with a bit of a highlight of turquoise mixed with white.

This is also probably as far as I'm going to get with this today. Was going to more or less finish it, but noticed that when my brother went to the local GW he took all the paints I needed for it.

And this will be today's last update. Otherwise I might not have anything for tomorrow.

Auto adjust so the lighting would be better, was kind of hard to get a picture of the face that made it look like it does in person. Since it's painted to be looked slightly down at it kept looking weird with straight on shots.

Devlin miracle and a fine tipped brush make for great eyelashes by the way.

The hair as it is there is just the base of the colour I'm going for. Got a fair bit to go with that still. Then the bronze needs highlighting.

your demon prince(ss) looks very good ... an epic work finally finished... something that happens not that often with my own works^^

the new sister looks very good by the way... shoulderpads and cloth looks grande!!!

The Sister is looking great the ( I was going to say blue ) turquoise is very nice indeed.

Edited: so you can actually understand what I wrote

Thanks.

I finished up the SoB and shoved her into her seat.

Need to do the script work and a few things still before thats done.

Also been working on the servitor.

The flesh is kind of exactly the way I wanted it, kind of lucky there.
Started with a base of deneb stone followed up by some ogryn flesh wash like most of my flesh, but then also added in a blue wash.

ok... i will have to wait till the final assembly how all this will look together... i am intrigued...

There's a bit to it, yeah.

I'm thinking the organ player herself is pretty much done now. Probably one or two things I can catch and fix before I'm done with the tank overall.

The photos and the face still though...

The Servitor is also pretty much done, wasn't much to do with him anyway.


And since I had some spare time since there were some downed power lines, I threw together the turret for the third Exorcist.

Moves pretty easily which is important. The tank itself though I got like this when I bought it from a friend, it'll need to be cleaned up a bit then I'll have to make it more fancy so it's worthy of being an Exorcist and not just a SoB rhino with a missile launcher.

I like what I've been seeing for the last 30 pages, but I never got around to commenting on it :( so here I am enjoying your work. Keep it up.

Also a sublime duet icwatudidthar

I've almost run out of Sona quotes for titles.

Got the first layer of white down over the grey base. Exorcist is finally moving along.

Put down the next three layers of white and worked on the turquoise a bit. Also started with the green for something hopefully interesting later on.

I am really digging that blue. Also is that door green or is it a trick of the camera?

It is indeed green, but not a door.

Started brass/bronze work on it. Did a bit of turquoise in some areas first to try out that form of verdigris, going to try another form for the rest.

So put some more bronze onto the metal then made myself a verdigris wash using hawk turquoise a bit of water and a tiny bit of dish soap.
Then I applied it like a glaze, gently dabbing off the excess with a tissue. Two coats later it looks like this.


Have a few spots here and there on the white to clean up now.

So fixed up the verdigris by adding in a bunch of white to the mix. Left it to dry and found it in bits in the morning. -.-

Would keep working on it, but the chips on the SoB are annoying and I haven't found her left arm yet. So time to put this project aside again for a bit. I can still have the SoB in the doubles tourney by using that third Exorcist instead, but then it's even easier if I use the Daemons. Kind of tempted to as I like the sound of the new KoS rules.

That's too bad.
I really like the ageing and the patina you created.

ohoh... who did that crime???

and i have read in nerdfests thread that if you add dheneb stone to the verdigris mix it gets a nice milky look... i tried it recently on my riveteer springfountain myself...and it loks very good...

No idea, but there is good news. I've gotten a look at the new Daemon rules and a few things have jumped out at me. Now I have just over a month before this tourney, so may just have enough time to get these two projects completed.

The first one is the backup plan. There's a new item for them called the Portalglyph, you put it down and once per turn it can create a completely new unit of your choice of lesser Daemon. Now the choice there is to just use the small blast template, or a marker of the same size. Coincidentally I still happen to have the base that came with the base model I used for Iluni, which being from Malifaux has that nice curved lip. Basically, a smaller summoning circle is the idea here.

The main plan is to get a Soulgrinder built from scratch, before looking at the rules I was toying around with the idea of a mimic based Daemon Prince or something like that.

After looking at the Soulgrinder stuff I decided to wait to see how they'd be with the update. Turns out it's pretty nice at least to me. Good thing I had the parts set aside for a couple of them.

So messing around with the idea a bit more I twisted the concept of a mimic to more fit in with the theme of Slaanesh and 40k.

And ended up with a sort of cute drawing because I couldn't find the usual crayons I use when I want to add in colour.

The cannons out the back are to show the alternate skyfire mode of fire that the harvester cannon has by default. They're generally four barrel guns anyway I think.

The first sketch kind of looks like the treasure chest out of Terry Pratchetts the colour of magic.

lol... yes snrub...that´s why i like that idea so much...

tho the slaanesh maiden there loks funny and nice... i like the first drawing more as a new model from scratch...
