Anyhow:
Viel Glück und Erfolg!

No I havent posted anything AoP related just yet, I've been so short on time that uploading would waste too much, but I have been taking pictures so that i can hit dakka with them when im done. Thanks for the luck, I hope I wont need it but i'll take it all the same! only 4 days left to paint 12 guys, 1 artillery, 1 flag, paint,flock,snow board Automatically Appended Next Post: Forget what I just said, im updating now!

Blimey, you actually did some work RW, tis awesome!!!
32169
Post by: Rogue Wolves
Thanks guys! and yes Dave thats the plan, luckily alot of people who signed up had to drop for time wise, the ones i know who are entering im not worried about, but theres always the ones who come unnanounced, luckily there is a bunch of GW close to me but my personal one isnt one of the larger ones, ( mine is a 2 board store, but is relitivly close to the LA Battlebunker which has a crap ton of space)

They look fantastic, Rogue! That scenery in particular is serious quality - I think you've got a pretty decent chance
The guard look great too, through all the blurriness - have you considered investing in a tripod? Or some kind of anti-convulsant for when you take photos?
32169
Post by: Rogue Wolves
Well this camera sucks really bad for one thing  , so my plan is to make a light box, and get a new camera.. being that my birthday is in 2ish weeks i might get it sooner than later

Post by: dsteingass
From the ones I've seen at Gamesday...The judges prefer recognizable GW bitz on the scratchbuilt stuff, do you have any of the plastic Mordheim building bitz to add as greeblies?
I just looked at my pics from Last Year's GD..and I don't have any of the AoP winners unfortunately..but I remember...
While looking however..I found this pic! /drool
Look at ALL THOSE SPRUES!!
As for a Camera..I use this
http://www.ebay.com/ctg/Canon-PowerShot-Digital-ELPH-SD790-IS--Digital-IXUS-90-IS-100-MP-Digital-Camera-Silver--/100060524?_refkw=canon+powershot+sd790&_pcatid=782&_pcategid=31388&_dmpt=Digital_Cameras&_dashexp=1
And you don't need a light box, just a daylight bulb in a cheap swing arm lamp- Prolly $20 at any Walmart

Thanks Vik, now I must stop getting destraced by dakka! But as long a I paint 4 guys today I'll be on schedule, so I must go do that!... Now my army WAS supposed to have an eyecatcher ( The Dovakiin from Skyrims cover, riding a Dragon ), but the store was closed when I was going to buy it, and now I dont have the time or $ so instead im just going to make him on foot..

no...  My drawings aren't quite good enough IMHO, but I really DO want to get my Catachan Orkmower painted and weathered to take. I don't expect to win anything, especially not in the 40k Vehicle category, but I'm going, so why not? I'd enter the 3 Ork Bommers, but the vehicle squadron category is for squads of 5+ vehicles.

hellllllooooooo! not that is a cool looking display board! well deserved winning!
you gotta love winter schemes for terrain... too many think there is everlasting summer!
and the skyrim mini looks very cool... that gets you a lot of sympathy i bet! where did you get that lizards head from? an old plastic toy? very well done... also the bloddy nametag of the board...
32169
Post by: Rogue Wolves
thanks vik, the lizard head was some 2$ model my sister bought this year for modeling practice ( she is a video game designer and was computer sculpting ) and i just added the horn from some high elf dragon tail i had.. and im glad i did the skyrim mini, it was a last second mini and alot of people said that was one of their main choices for voting for it
24297
Post by: Viktor von Domm
i had some feeling that it might have been a thing that got you the votes... tho actually the mountain should have been enough... has the whole building prcess costed you a lot of apint by the way? that big terrain... i only recently found myelf really silly for using my favorite paint as a means to paint my brickwalls  really i should have gotten me a nice cheap paint to get that job done instead of my last good bottle of mecharite red...darn^^

Post by: Rogue Wolves
lols i'll post the pics of my competition when the FB page posts them, and dont worry the board it self was painting with regular ol' acrylics.. although i did have to use some nuln oil, but the door and metals i had to use my gw paint

24297

it looks like a monster of a project! good enough to eat!
but is the time scale enough for such a beauty? wouldnt rush some idea like that... but i sound now like a dried up aunt already... go RW go!!

I have to agree with Vik don't waste that project by rushing it  It looks pretty dam nifty from here
32169
Post by: Rogue Wolves
oh trust me if after doing my entire AoP in little more than a week... I have no desire to rush.. although right now im running off of the "I want to do anything that wasnt my AoP" adrenaline so who knows... i mean I've had worse ideas before.. right?

Post by: Viktor von Domm
er... i hate to say so
no seriously this is a cool concept!!!
32169
Post by: Rogue Wolves
thanks vik.. but then again having a concept and actually building are 2 seperate things  . Im probibly going to have to change it alot in the meantime
24297
Post by: Viktor von Domm
change is good... but i think you first action should be... get a base... get some basic materials...and of course the proper fitting lids^^... that is what i did...after that the process will take on it´s own path...
32169
Post by: Rogue Wolves
yes... I definatly need a base of some sort.. as I have none, I need to find suitble lids... most importantly I want plasticard! (but I 97% doubt that that'll happen, so I'll have to be happy with foam board)

and this is what happens when im bored.. (and also dave inspiring me to pick up my old prisma markers)
pic2- this guy I like alot.. took me 15 minutes give or take... I think its self explanitory.. its obviously a self portrait of myself after i "die"
pic3- now this is 10 minutes worth of doodles... obviously more humorous than realistic, but thats the nature of doodles...
pic4- =][= guy of somesort.. uhh I think thats a squig and also another self portrait (which actually made me want to draw it bigger)
pic5- umm this guy is... some random =][= guy and a servo skull... now I must say my favorite thing about doodling with pens and not pencils.. is that it the characters evolve ( I always start with the face, not knowing what im going to draw), seeing as I cant erase my mistakes
pic6- odd shaped guardsman who reminds me of Pee Wee Herman!
pic7- and some chaosy stuff, followed by the skum of the galaxy
ahh the info about how awsome my IG did (teamed up with CSM) against GK and SW, will come later *cough* tell me how 4 guardsmen beat 3 (purifier??) GK termies in close combat! and another 1 of those couldnt take the last hull point of my LR in combat! *cough*

Firstly the thing is flapping in the wind dude, but secondly the freehand adds so much that masking would take away. I like it as is, it adds character tbh, so I wouldn't worry about it

why thank you childe! i probibly wont worry about it too much.. i'd probibly just mess it up if i tried to change it

holy gak... that baner... that is awesomelooking...  is that you painting??? or do you have a small chinaman in your cellar doing the whole work for a dish of noodles a day??? where does that prowess in painting come from? these vets look very cool... and as childe said... the banner looks as best as i could imagine it! it seems that it could be a cool version of the US banner soon!
as for the whole bunch of things i could comment on... just one thing... that bone colored pair of lasgun took my breath away!!! very cool look!!!

thanks vik and dave! @vik, im glad you like the duel laspistoler he is my favorite, the reasoning behind him is in those war movies (letters from iwo jima off the top of my head) the accomplished soldier gets that fancy plated pistol
@dave, thanks its ok if you want to start playing the piccolo, that was the intention of my evil plan the whole time!

i am fairly sure that you are just trolling the gak out of me. Leeds? sounds like the deep sea to me. Of course... i dont have that nice auto bond germans have and i would kill to drive my mustang on it but then i have to kill to get to germany kill everyone at every boarder to make sure i would get through without my passport and then when in germany have a giant cop chase and attempt to kill them all, and then try to kill everyone on my way back home...but then i would have five stars and have to run from the military and tankz. I would die then respawn at the nearest hospital, but then be a car short...So ya? whats leeds?

Yeah well... on that front you're not alone at all. it's the same here.. :/ and imo that's really f**ked up. we really should take better care of our elders.. we'll be there ourselfs one day.
but other than that. we're pretty modern.
Just look at the Leopard 2 tank! We buy them from you guys and then we take out your old and expired stuff (just kidding) and shove our technology into them! and voila! A highly modernized tank.
But that really doesn't matter anyways.. we have very good tanks here but they're too few and very expensive so if anyone attacks us we're screwed anyways..

A quick update, I started filling in the valk with bits (and like an idiot forgot to take a picture of the celing i did :( ) well, nothing is glued in so that it can all be painted and put back, but i also got some amazing bases (thanks galorn!) i really like these ones, the casting is great it really only required the tiniest bit of cleanup and than they are ready to be used, the next box i but im definatly going to be using these bases, and im going to use it on my valk, and am probibly going to add some guys and gear down there to make it even more fancy then it already is...

abseiling... is that a real english word???
and you use the big HW team base made from galorn as a valk base... will this be heavy enough to support the valk?
and the interior pics look as if the blob is attacking the figher^^

28415
Post by: lone dirty dog
I have seen it done IRL but also on a model Valk before, it's looked great but make sure you get the pose right
Yes Vik it is a real word
The base is it plaster or resin ? it should hold the Valk sturdy I would think

Resin
28415
Post by: lone dirty dog
If it is resin and deep enough, you could cut a hole in the bottom and add a weight of some kind  if stability is a concern of course
The bases look great by the way Galorn
24297
Post by: Viktor von Domm
just asked because it sounds way too german for me to be an english word...
32169
Post by: Rogue Wolves
^ by the way vik on the base 1. it is much sturdier than a standard valk base, and 2. i think your mistaken, this isnt a heavy weapon sized base, it is infact valk sized
@ everyone else, thanks for all the kind words! and if the only money i had wasnt on a check i could buy some primer and paint these up!

oh... i didn´t know it was valk sized... but then it probably will turn out very great indeed^^
