wow big name for something so in relevant as my tread.
but hé big names attract big names right?
well everybody who does a P&M blog has a reason a motivator mine is pressure. I cant produce with out pressure so i hope this tread will keep me building/painting. well more painting then building i only need 9 kommando's and 10 loota's to finish the list i am building but almost everything needs to be painted. and that only my orks i am painting a friend of mine his tau. don't expect supper skills or anything out of the ordanairy.
well back to the pressure i have 2 deadlines. one is for a 600 point per player team tournament and for that i need to paint
ORK ARMY:
- 10 loota's (WIP)
- 1 deffplane (basecoated)
- 1 deffplane (i just converted it)
- 20 boys (basecoated it)
- 1 trukk (base coated it)
- 1 big mek with shock attack gun (WIP)
TAU ARMY:
- 12 fire warriors (base coated it)
- 6 stingwing (WIP)
- commander (WIP)
- broadside (WIP)
and the deadline is on the 3rd of december (i know tight but the tau army has priority)
my other deadline is a little easier as it is somewhere in May. probably the first weekend in May. its a 1750 point per player setting you play alone but your score effects your team. its complicated its called Battle Of The Clubs or BOTC. Its basicly a GT for clubs and i am the captain of team Rising Empire 40K. we have a second team Rising Empire Fantasy who obviously play fantasy. our objective at BOTC is the Great Gamers award for most sportive club. this year we almost won with our FANTASY team (finished 3rd) and next year will be our first ever 40K team.
I will be working with my army list in mind so no drifting away painting up useless models although i like useless models. the List i am building is play tested against Tau (the army i am painting) and chaos space marines (also a BOTCH team member) and it preformed rather well. I like the way it plays and it is pretty effective against the two armies i used it againts a shooty army (tau) and a MEQ/close combat army (khorne zerkers, rhino's , deffy, abbadon , termies, predy's).
with no further delay the list (dum dum dum)

pic time
first the tau there is a test vespid and a commander in my usual color scheme.
i really like some feedback on the vespid. the idea was to make them lighter then the rest of the army which is dark. but to unite them into the army by painting the guns white like the rest of the army.
the vespid
WIP commander
now my orks first some models i already finished
warboss
killa kan
big mek with kustome force field
now WIP time first the models with color the the balack ones
big mek with SAG
battle wagon
deff dread 1
deff dread 2
loota
deff plane 1
deff plane 2
i would love some comments and if you want other angles on the photo's just say so and i will take new photo's
which of the two? and i am happy that somebody likes them besides me. i tend to do things randomly and sometimes it turns out great other times it looks rubish
awesome stuff fatty!! I dig the colors for the tau and the looted dreadnaughts are great! Im not an ork player so i dunno the parts all that stuff comes from, but it all looks real cool .
thanks bebob
on the dreadnoughts i used the fantasy giant weapons and extra's. with random ork bits in place's and a drop pod missle launcher. but yeah i teand to do things randomly
Well just a written update.
i did :
the brass on the two deff planes
began the metal on the deff planes
finished the squad of vespid
and the left leg of the commander
if anybody wants pics just post it and i will take them.
up next are two loota's one in blue the other in orange and white. just a compartment on color scheme

Good looking minis fatty. I like he planes look great, but I'd like to see that drill bit underslung. It seems like it'll get in the way of dem rokkits.
@enz yeah the second plane tends to look long but that's because of the drill. I like the fact that one looks small and the other big.
@TGG funny you say that because the first planes has the most problems firing missiles because the propeller is in the way. I will make a photo of the front so you can see
edit:
okay so i want to test my tournament list and where better then on a tournament. On 19 November there is a tournament which i will anent unfortunately with an unpainted army. so my next post will have some "conversions" or how i put it orky bits on a base and tell them they are commando's swimming in water. (which is why i have a hydroplane) which in turn is exactly what i want in the first place
Tomorrow will be an pic update featuring:
kommando's WIP deff plane update
mayby some loota's WIP
well apparently i can't upload more photo's here as i am banned because i uploaded a pic of a pony and the car of a friend of mine.........
I wasn't aware that it was againts the rules to upload that. I will find an other upload site or contact a MOD but which? i will find out who goes over the gallery
mate if you hadn´t mentioned i wouldn´t have looked... but you have done so , and now i am here.... and i am suitably amazed at that bronzed monster...HOW? also i like the way you made the tau commader look like he is surrounded by lightning... very cool!
so i guess i have to follow you now more closley^^
thanks Vik. the secret behind the brass is 3 washes. blue, purple and sephia in that order within 15 minutes of each other. so the washes flow into each other. that gives the strange effect
darn ... recently got me some asurmen blue but i lack the purple...^^
but it is a very nice idea...and i think it even looks oily that way...hmmm...since the asurmen is blue and the puple has blue too in the wash... might an experiment with red wash be an idea? also what was your undercoat? white, grey? of course no black^^
oh and are we talking diluted washes here or like... berserker thick brush loaded heavy with paint?^^
see...one day my steamkhnights have to get some paint on them and this bronzed up look might just be the thing to be done^^
yeah your right on the washes
1) its been basecoated with Tin Bitz
2) a heavy drybrush of brazen brass (out off production i believe)
3) a drybrush of dwarf bronze
4) a really light drybrush of chainmail
then the washes. I think the idea behind the washes is that there is blue in the purple so those colors blend into each others. and the sephia is there to bring back the brass.
ah now i see... of course the two washes can then blend into each other... but alas i will have to try out something different for now... i guess for just making cool looking bronze i don´t want to give GW another 3 €s for one wash...ah who am i fooling here^^
also i see tin bitz is again on the to buy list...ohoh...^^
alright uopdate time. by my own stupidity i ignored the rules of photo posting and got banned from using the gallery. but luckly legoburner is willing to reverse his decisioun if i promise never to do it again. and i won't trust me.
I have a lot of progress done this day. all of my normal boys (45) have the first 4 layers for the bronze done. after this post i will begin washing them and then there almost done. only the clothes, skin and details. becuase they are mainstream models i don't want to give them to much detail or time.
i have made a loota with orange pants and white shirt. to be honest i do really like it. atleast better then the blue boy's but the blue boys are easier to paint and i have more models already painted this way.....
edit: washes done and i had a long long time to think and the orange white looked to clean for an ork so it's only blue.
the units need unit markers... i find it odd to have different colors or tattoo's with markers so i decided to paint half the base with a different color and the other half brown.
I am attending a trait school for animal caretaker and today's lesson was about reptiles so we handled bearded dragon, snakes and turtles but the turtle decided the teacher was scary and took a dumb on the table
and you know, as a younter teen i wanted to become an animal caretaker too, that or become a veterinarian...instead i studied business administration...
haha well i wanted to become a crime scene investigator. and then a micro biologist (which i am) and then a para veterinarian (fancy word for assistant) but now i want to take over my boss his donkey farm talk about a 360 turn
you want to boss around some donkeys...yeah... that makes sense^^ lol... no serious...why would someone want to part with a donkey farm...er... donkey farm??? why would someone try to raise many donkey in the first place... we have lorries now^^
but i really like the term para veterinarian... this sounds like red wine and cigartettes and barrets and a big syringe to make ill animals feel better and look cool while doing it^^
and... why does a mirco biologist work as an assitant on a farm? are jobs as scarce in the netherlands as they are in germany?...my wife has learnded to be social pedagogue but now works as a nursery nurse...
this is a lovley thing! i tried to read a bit and when you are able to mix english and german you are pretty much un dutch waters language-ly speaking^^ i think this is a very nice idea...with kids and then this is a very good idea for a day outside! wish the netherlands wouldn´t be so far away for a spontaneus trip...
be sure to drop me a line when the time comes to have the site full in a language that i can read properly^^
I will Vik....
and i will also go searching for an upload site as i am still banned from the gallery..... why did i not read the rules stupid me but hey rules are rules if you break em you got to pay.
the horror that i uploaded was the car of a friend of mine (for a handy shotgun postition) and a my little pony..... but i (now) understand that it was a waste of dakka resources.
btw for those who don't know shotgun (highly likely) its the right to sit in the front set basicly if everybody can see the car (hence the pic) and you are not inside a building (i posted the photo outside handy laptop) you get the right to sit in the front seat. i like to be flexible
smart now if you don't mind i go and pillage my sister camera....
maybe i should buy one myself.......
nahhhh of to loot and then shoot me some ork(pictures)
Automatically Appended Next Post: to bring the tread back on topic..
big news i have all the models for my army here's the army
my trukk
kommando's or bits-on-a-base
some of my converted loota's
i like the loota's with the little guns. they where just to small for the big guns.
uploaded from sta.sh where i can't resize the photo's. I have a few more pic's but thats for a new update cliff hanger anyone?
yeah let them out man! so... if we would ask you you and what army... you would silently point behind you in the general direction of this army^^
i think when going orks... kommandos are alwas a very cool and funny way of making individual looking models...
these lootas i have to watch out for... i can´t atm figure out how they will look... headless as they are...
that fender on your trukk looks mighty cool! nice hooker...lol
oh and if you are thinking of building up on your army and are willing i have lots of orky vehicles in my swapshop thread... just saying^^
i am not all about the trukks and battlewagons. yeah the heads i need to find in my bit box. one has a grenade in its hand the other two will get an axe and a sword. there just temporary conversions till i can buy some new loota's but yeah next week i have tournament so i need some loota's
well i might have a pic of silver skull my first ever ork
i know his skull isn't silver (jet)
as for picture making... a slight angle to the mini would be nice... as if the mini is not looking directly into the cam but only a tad beside... so that we can see more of the mini... most of the times you then see much better than now...
one thing the model does shows great on the model is my oil brass effect. Btw i just found out that the Gryphon Sepia wash is not necessary just the blue and purple wash
@vik
due to the washes on my metal i can't do skin first or ells i would ruin my skin work. which is also a wash so that's why i choose to do the armor first, then clothes, skin, detail.
it's pretty stress full painting if i nick my brass i might have to start over or ells the metal will look weird
the planes so much better fit the fluff of orks than kopters in my opinion...
your planes look already very nice to me and what they now need is plenty of color^^ also i like that currogated iron plates on top of the plane Nr. one...but you know it had to be said...it needs...now class can you help fatty here...yes class he needs more rivets^^... do be seated!
funny thing actually i did play an inquisitor army and one of his assassins shot my big mek with a 2 wound round of ammo. i went to the ground and 6 saved him from harm so i don't fear the =I=
i thoughed so....
but i will take a close up from the under slung buzz saw which has tons of rivets
well 2 day's until the tournament and i will take pictures of the day. the pictures will be of a bad quality as my phone camera isn't great and my phone has a will of it's own so it sometimes refuses to work.
Yes, you need to recite the Litany of Optical Focusing, that is your problem.
(to be spoken the the Machine Spirit before inserting the memory card into your camera)
Machine Spirit, accept my gift,
Swallow the light, and spit out Jpegs.
apart from that i just returned from a tournament.
and turned out 7th out of 8th....
it was a fun tournament
there was a lot of divers armies
note the above statement is sarcastically typed
the field consisted out of
3 blood angels armies
2 grey knight armies
1 dark angel (terminator army)
1 space wolf army
and my orks
i was the only one without power Armour.
it did showed me something.... my orks are a fun army to play in one off games but not in tournaments. so i will get a new army..... grey knights this time combining two things i love. air born armies and terminator armies without special characters. It is not a rash decision but it basically turned out like this.
i don't want to buy more orks to make this army work. and i like my army as it is but it is just not competitive.
what didn't work in my list where the kommando's they assaulted they lost and fled.
on the other hand my orks are great against terminators.
what scared me where the vindicators of the blood angels. they moved 12" and shot i was like WHAT hand me that codex well that isn't nice.
and death company there where 7 of them and 20 orks of mine. my orks died horribly. i did take some pictures which i will upload tomorrow. i took pictures of two of my opponents armies. the dark angels terminator army (who won first place and best painted army) and a lamentier army. my last opponent was a blood angels player with no paint and the golden boy (the examplair of the host) whom i shot with 45 shots. o and i killed like half his assault squad with one shot from the SAG double 6 love it.
lol....total powerarmour tournament....exept your green hides... well that is most discriminatory...
would love to see pics...i am eagerly awaiting then tomorrow^^
as for the insanity bit...goes with the show i guess...aplying zillions of rivets does that to a formerly sane man...
thank you cuddlesquig and welcome to the blog. Yah fun thing at the tournament there where no points for conversions until the judge walked by and my opponnent said. he can't you give him conversion points? the orgenazor said uhmm let me check. and boem we had points for conversions.
alright this photo update is a little bit later then planned. i had a little bit of a problem after my rugby training.
you know rugby, American football without the protection.
after the training i had:
a dislocated jaw
a concussion
and a possible broken jaw (luckly the x-ray showed no fracture)
ouch... i actually flinched while reading... dislocated jaw...and a concussion....ouch indeed... hope you recover soon...thank god this is a written form of communication...^^
rugby is sure one hell of a manly sport...holy...
well the pics don´t show much... also i am confused of what you played with... only on the first pic we get a glimpse of some orkies...the rest is just SM...hmmm...
Thrust me most of the tourament felt like that 7 out of 8 where marine armies. i used my full army like i posted it before. i thoughed my opponents armies where interesting except for the last who played like me unpainted.
well i think i mentioned it earlier... i had to abaondon my chapeter due to boringness of SM... seeing only SM armies around that must be quite a boring site so see...
but then you showed some nice minis...that creamy and blue is a nice combo...
thank you for your kind words.
but i want to win tournaments not play nice so i will scumble or not? maybe a full tank army IG style. but if I scumble i will scumble before chaos with an army lead by a fallen angel
well guy's i need some help.
like i said i have some issues with my army towards a competitive list.
so i was thinking of 3 possible armies
1ste possible list : imperial guard tank list
1 commissar
20 veterans
3 chimera's
6 leman russ battle tanks
3 vanquisers
tactic: protect the veterans with a russ wall. shoot the stuffings out of the opponent with the russes and if i can tank shock some units of the table or something like that.
color scheme : white body with silver metal and a pin up free hand on each tank. each tank will get a name after there pin up.
2nd possible list : tyranids
2 hyve tyrants
4 venomthropes
12 swarms of rippers
6 carnifexen
tactic: i want to deploy in two groups. each group is identical to one another. venomthropes protect the group with there ability, whilst the tyrants give the group prefferd enemy. then its ram and destruction if i get into close combat.
colo scheme: black caprace with a grey body and ice blue tribals
3rd possible list : grey knights
grand master
5 paladins
10 terminators
3 storm ravens
tactic: fly in kill stuff you know from the 3 list this one appeals least to me.
color scheme : dirty white armour with red clothes
give your oppinions and if you have an crazy idea with some sort of competitive feel. i don't have to win i just don't want to lose to a guy with no skills but just because he has a marine army. orks are fun but they get kicked by a complete noob and i hate that
ohoh.... i think i can´t help you there... i am the noob...^^ so all i could say is i can´t believe that there is not a possible way to get your orks to kick some serious butts... i think there must be a way to add something to make them more competitive...
that's the fun part. if you look at the tactics on orks i use the models that are listed as competitive. but that is coincidence i just picked what i like. and i know orks can be a great tourny army but not with the models i want. it boils down to these are my orks i like em but i want an other army (like a spoiled brat ) plus i really like building armies .
i have been working on a leman russ but there is almost no room for big pin ups. so i am trying something out so maybe tomorow a update with the russ
well then i think a nice IG army would be right up yor alley.... a tank line full of nice almost neeekidd wimmen...i think you would be on the winners route by this... all the nerdy gamers would be loosing because of the disatraction caused by the pin-ups^^
yeah the pin ups are there because i want to improve on my free hand work. but then again i almost always havve a nice free and clean surface for the free hands. but not with the tanks. so i put on on the underside and i added some small free hands on the body of the russ. I can't stand fighting for good so i guess my IG will be pro slaanesh as that is the god(dess?) weirdo of lust.
just removed the masking tape aand pulled the free hand of. turns out the masking tape tears of the paint %^$%^%$$%.
i did found the left overs of my first 40k army. 10 grey hunters, 5 termies and my wolf lord...
and i am in some sort of argument with a friend of mine. he says that pure khorn is better and i say pure slaanesh is better.... and i am right
but alas war is not a conflict to determine who is right but who is left. if i want to add some effect to my words i might need to builed a slaanesh army and battle him oh boy.
i will concentrate on Tau for now and leave my army idea's for what they are and just paint stuff. updates soon i hope
but alas war is not a conflict to determine who is right but who is left.
lol... that is such a nice quote... from you or some celebrity?
ok so i read on and ..aha... now he will start SW...then..slaanesh against khorne...er...then...tau...wtf...??? ok... if you throw now eldars in i think i will thorw up on behalf of the confusion... what is now your secret plan to battle the many foes of armorclad powergeeks?
well i have a tiny attention span. the tau are my friends i just paint his tau and he pay's me some money not allot. and the army i plan too take on powergeeks i dunno to meany ideas not enough time. i'll just paint some tau and think slowly about the army before i do anything rash
lol... ask rawson... he is the resident northerner...i only ever heard that from norway to be a delicious thing... but given that i am mad for raw meat... yummy.... (no pun inteded here... i prefer my meat if possible raw...no heat inolved... the texture and taste is simply awesome...try it!)
mmmm now i want sushi @vik whats sounds fishy about the 3 wolf lords on thunder wolves with canis? it's legal as the rulebook say's IC can join other IC to make a super unit. the SW codex says i can take 4 HQ choice 2 per HQ slot as long as there not completely the same. so one with frost blade the other with frost axe is good.
edit* just read your post again Vik sorry i miss read it
was about the rephrase it too and then read you post further... fishy as in...wolfriding...er...^^ have you ever thought about a cooler bike as a wolf count as? some harley conversion... maybe from defkoptas or some other base? for me the very thought of wolves as a riding material...meh...
well tommorow I have jet another tournament. this time a 600 point per player tournament.
my team consist of my space wolves (i have learned from last time) and my friend with his tau (the army i am painting).
my army consists of:
wolf lord, thunder hamer/storm shield
5 terminators, 2 power fists, 1 chain fist, 1 twin wolf claw and 1 power weapon, 4 storm bolters
10 grey hunters with rhino
i will take Pictures with my phone so expect some blurry pics
he wasn't the fist battle was againts two brothers with IG the mission was kill points. they had 3 vendatta's , 4 chimera's, 1 annihilator leman russ and we had almost nothing to open the transports. 9 - 1 in kill points. One mighty and funny part was that the entire IG army shot at my wolf lord and he still stood standing but the last lascannon shot killed him. he was crowned by my opponents to man of the match and later on even to man of the tounament
the second battle was againts vannila marines and nids the mission was 4 objectives. my wolflord tied up a tryloc and broodlord. it killed the broodlord but the tryloc was to big even though the tau did take 3 ounds of it. it was a draw nobody had an objective and my rhino was king of the match. it tank shocked a squad contesting the objective and its storm bolter killed the last marine who was on a objective.
the third battle was 3 objectives against nurgle space marines and imperial guard. dawn of war so my wolf lord joined my grey hunters and got shot to pieces. 1 grey hunters and the wolf lord still stood standing. long story short in the end i had 10 plague marines against my wolf lord. after the attacks he said you can make 8 armour saves or remove him immidiat i just laughed and rolled my dice saving all wounds.
I only made one photo of my wolf lord in the epic combat vs the triloc both had 1 wound left my wolf lord lost.
we had allot of fun when my wolf lord refused to die (all the players even the opposition), and random things that happened. we played in a church and the light was rubisch so i told to my team mate quick pray for better light 5 minutes later someone walks up to us and ask's if she could take a picture of our game and we had more light for about 5 seconds (the flash of the camera)
This time i am forsaken my previous determent plan of making a balanced army as it turns out that in the dutch tournament scene there is no place for such armies that's why my orks lost.
So i go for an all out mostly infantry guard army. I will use bretonnia peasant and men-at-arms body's for the normal guardsmen and knight/men-at-arms hybrids as storm troopers.
scheme sounds interresting...
and the fact that this will be an immensly conversion project is a fact that you have hooked me up just now^^ *rubs hands*
all right pic's are taken and are now uploading to sta.sh so maybe i can upload them to my tread before i need to go to rugby practice which is in 4 minutes...
success and a here are some pic's
psyker (unconverted i think she fits just fine)
platoon commander with power sword and plasma pistol
his back
company commander
his back
the leman russ ) extreme WIP the yellow is just the first coat of many
sorry if the pics are a bit blurry and sorry for the yellow on the tank but it´s just the first coat
yay! this is going to be a classic and cool scheme...the minis you have chosen are very nice for a first view....yeah...pics suck... for some reason only the seethrough yellow tank came through as a clear pic^^ kind of selfowned there^^
the current coat of yellow looks as if you have aplied a bit too thick of paint there? i recently worked with millions of coats to achive a crisp white...and thus it worked...the coat then looks not that way...also i would have at least used a basecoat like deneb stone for making the black to yellow a bit easier...
are those blue swords power/forceweapons? how did the feudal world get the shooty bitz anyway? do you have some kind of fluff worked out yet? will be intersting to see this whole thing developing...!
On the painting i did thin the paint down but it's still kind of thick and i was thinking about a lighter base color will try that on the vendetta (i have the model just need to paint it) and the other leman russ and chimera. the force will not be overly mech but it will have some mobility.
on with the fluff
I have a pretty good fluff worked out for me by GW. of course i will wright some for my own.
but the basis is there from the same planet as the howling griffon's which is a feudal planet, but because it's also the home planet of a space marine chapter they have the technology for power weapons, plasma weapons and melta weapons.
I like to think of my IG as peasants who have served there lords (howling griffons) great or did something amazing and are rewarded by a higher rank. so the aristocratic society are inducted into the howling griffons and the lower society are inducted into the IG where they can grow into a higher rank.
the IG protect the world while the howling griffons go fight for the emperor and provide the IG with weapons to protect the population. should a treat be to great for the IG the howling griffons will crash down and save them.
thats the reason they have the same color scheme. i do plan to make a few free hands on the models of Griffons. those will be done with a pen instead of a brush as i have more control over a pen then a brush.
also in the pipes is a Giffon (the artillery piece) as the name just sreams to be in this army and a knight (the one man whannabe titan) made from a dread knight and a sentinel
the griffon then should be probably a centre piece^^ the whole scheme you do realize is quite a positive one...and by the way..it is a quartered scheme i can actually live with... some of the quartered schemes i have seen looked horrible^^ this one is cool!
thank you. yeah a friend of mine has a empire (fantasy) quartet scheme of orange a light blue ( i simply hate it) but i myself like this one too. and wait till i get some paint and a different banner (this one is to heavy) on my banner bearer. if it turns out like i want to (and it will) then it will blow your mind
oh that´s cool...don´t need that frail shrimp of meat anyway...
well... as for the occasional bretonan or empire army done in a quertered scheme...i think you can´t get around that one...it is simply historical implied mostly...for the sake of the argument...a friend of mine painted his bowmen also in that same blue/orange mix and well...for him it was ok as these were his favorite colors...
er...what standard bearer...must have slipped me...
maybe i need to make some rivets on the base?
nah a plastic banner is better i will use the metal banner as a banner for the knight titan (which isn't a titan but everybody calls it a titan)
oh nice idea to use this mnini that way... but yep i see that this might be a topheavy conversion... and i think dave is right on the money here...some washers might help too ot some heavy and smallish stones as a basing? maybe both?
I have looked everywhere for the fabled WD textured wallpaper, they used it a lot in the Mordheim studio Terrain. I have determined that it just isnt sold in the US.
now i would really like to see that... you really teased me with that...
are we really talking relief structured wallpaper here? the kind you have on your grandmas walls? that ugly stuff either really cool peeps use or the kind that your grandma had...?
awsome idea... cool effect...that is something i have to rethink...
Automatically Appended Next Post: i koow that kind of wallpaper... i had at first a totally different idea of a wallpaper in my mind... more peasly kind of texture... but this looks like a real cool idea...!
Well painting slowed down as i have to turn in my internship assignments next week. I did try your advise on using deheb stone as a base color Vik and it works like a dream. maybe i can afford a few pic's this weekend of the standard bearer, vendetta and leman russ
it determinds when i have my exams. if i do horribly i end up having my exams this year. if it's good i can have my exams over 2 years.
In holland we have this systems of levels sort of speak.
level 0 is no education (so you end up in a factory most of the time doing dumb work)
level 1 is a basic very practicle education
level 2 is just a nick above level 1
level 3 is independent work but you don't get management skills
level 4 is management kind of work
my eduction is towards animal care and i am doing a level 4 education so i can start up my own : petting zoo, pet shop or something in the line of animal care.
yeah... i think so ... here i think in essence it is the same too... if you don´t have a paper saying you are capable of doing something then you are basically not able to work in that line of work... other countries have a different aproach on that matter... training on the job and all... sometimes i think the other way sounds better...well...
so i start better to cross my fingers then... after all being a student for more two years sounds quite the bargain...^^
yeah and i am a student for 11 years....
thank you Dutch system of schooling.
we have 6 types of high schools.....
and then we have 3 types of advance school after the high schools. where you study for a job
ok, THAT textured wallpaper, yes, you can get that stuff in those sample books of wallpaper. I was referring to the brick-like/cobblestone pattern of textured wallpaper they used in the Mordheim Studio Terrain. My bad. That stuff looks pretty cool all painted up.
at fatty... well i only begun back in the days of 2000 my studies to not have to go to work... i know pretty lame of me back then... but i worked before as a retailer in a supermarket... what a horrible way to make his earnings... to my stupidity i studied business administration... gosh was i dumb to do that... completed it but i am unemployed ever since... it was the wrong stuff to study... now i try to become a nursery nurse... quite the development, eh?
nope... do you know a kindergarten? or possibly in a school... to assist the teacher... classes are always betting bigger so now each class gets a "helper" an "erzieher"... german i am afraid... there isn´t an english word that describeds the function quite good enough...
well the job can either be done in a kindergarten or a school...depends on ones taste and of course the possible vacant jobs...but basically the same training...
who whant's a terrible update? the pic's are from my phone so expect blurry and crapy pic's but they do show you what i am working on/ with
the psyker is done and based
the base of the heavy weapon team
the base is just textured wall paper painted black
then a dry brush of bleached bone (very lightly)
the a some what heavier dry brush bleached bone
i tried to paint in the lightning but my textured wall paper is some what different from the one they used in the WD. even without the lightning i think it is pretty neat if i may say so.
the heavy weapon team
the banner bearer
the part that makes me insane his checkered kilt
and the first rough rider
I forgot to take a pic of the leman russ and the vendetta well that's some thing for a next update
the bases represent a ash waste or some dark sand like alien stuff.
and about the joker yeah he was more fun as his partner (IGOR) looks very angry/stern and is more a brute while the joker points (literally) to the targets
well... heavy weapon temas are the smallest dio one could imagine... something i really like doing... so it was a good choice making the joker the spoter...wouldn´t have worked to give him a gun i think...
joker with a autogun or heavy bolter....
then you have a historical laughing lunatic with a gun.
i have a idea for a punisher with a laughing joker sticking out laughing
well as i am drawn into the steampunk side of 40k i have come to apreciate the archaic look of the more british looking big shootas of orky origin... they are very cool looking... also i recommend for your troops to use shootas whenever you can... they have the right feel for a little underdeveloped army...could very well be the thing for your army...also if all else fails you could always declare your army more based with autohuns than lasrifles as they are technological a bit behind the times...
he that can help me alot as i have a lot of shoota´s (i went for ccw and pistol´s on my orks) and i needed to look at some bits sites for las riffles or buy box sets which i will only use for the rifles. will make a scetch model tommorow but how can i eexplain the plasma weapons and melta weapons?
how they came to be on your world? well they could be relicts and artefacts of enemies as maybe your technological planet is not afraid of using xeno tech... also if you are ordering bitz... i would look into choas weapon bitz like plasma guns and pistols... the look of them could suit your guys quite well...
same with orks... i recently got hold of some old orky plasma guns... they look very cool... much better than the standard imperial or SM ones...
thats why i have my lasgun by my side of the bed xD
In all fairness a little text update on my IG.
things i have decided:
1) they will be a defence force so little to no APC's
2) a lot of range weapons and mostly blast weapons (leman russ executioner, missile launchers, grenade launchers ect)
3) there will be 3 full squads of rough riders
4) there will be a griffon artillery piece.
things i am still thinking about i haven't decide on it jet
1) there will be 3 full squads of storm troopers (as a source of ap3 weapons. i know they are over priced but i think they will find a spot in the army)
2) instead of the storm troopers pages that count as ratling snipers. to simulate the young boys that learned from the knights from a safe distance.
what do you guy's think
o yeah before i forget.
i tried the shoota and it looked just weird it's way out of proportion (and not the funny kind). i have seen some pic on the internet with bretonnians holding las rifles which looked oke. but before i do that i will try empire pistols and guns (for that old style effect)
how many RR can you take?
and the decision to mostly not rely on armor is a good if somewhat expensive decesion... but you could nevertheless scratchbuilt some of the tanks and safe up money for the footsloggers...
just scrolled through 40! of my own thread pages... not something for the faint of heart.... but here is the post with the guy who did them.... page 92 of my ongoing steampunk thread... name of speedfreak...

Just out of curiosity, has anyone tried to do steampunk/Preatorians by mixing fantasy and 40k? Like these guys:
or maybe these
I'm thinking of doing something similar and counting them like penal legionaries (fluff-wise, some inducted locals with random skills).
As my skills get better I hope to replace more and more of my army with steampunkish guard.
Many thanks for the awesome read, I hope I'm not overstaying my welcome and also wish you a happy birthday Mr. Vik.
I think the easiest way to do Men at Arms with lasguns is to use Cadian arms and cut away from the Men at Arms torsos so that they fit flush on, with shoulder pads and everything.
I made mine (the painted ones in the top picture) by cutting away from the Cadian arms and fitting them to the Men at Arms half arms instead, but that is a lot more work and you have to make the other arm by your self as well.
i played my first game with imperial guard today. and i learned something.... DON'T FORGET THE ORDERS!
during the game i had two small (mayor) "accidents"
the first one was a missile launcher that scattered on my griffon and took out the mortar (weapon destroyed)
the second one was a battle cannon the scattered on the same griffon but luckely that penetrating hit was saved by smoke. and they say smocking is bad for you
i also found a great substituted for lasguns, empire guns (a pic update on the mortar tomorrow)
oeps let me clarify they guns a bit.
i will use the pistoliers/outrider blunderbuss as a grenade launcher
various guns from the hand gunners/outrider/pistoliers as lasguns
hochland long riffles will be snipers
and i need some gun to be used as hot shot lasguns but i do not know which one just jet xD
i do have some of those guns and i was thinking in the same way. there repeater hand guns by the way it's help full if a close friend has over 10,000 points of empire
yes i also like the hochland longriffle and the blunderbuss.
well i have a huge stack of empire bits now i only need to sort out the different weapons
and a small problem. well not so much a problem more a dilemma i have this lying around and i am wondering should i give it to my IG guy's or paint it up as an awesome diorama? and raising a middle digit to my paint skills and go all out with this kit to make some thing extreme nice but that would be pushing my skills to the limit?
Automatically Appended Next Post: guys i just had an Epiphany.
a friend of mine just asked me to explain the creation of the primachs to him.
but if we take just a minute. what if you where in the emperors shoes?
you go to the cops with this story.
hey i just cloned myself 20 times. but now the gods of chaos have stolen my baby clones and cast them into space will you go looking with me?
that will give you a one way ticket to the asylum.
in the asylum you would have no freedom to move , and you will be locked away in solitary.
that sounds alot like the golden throne. maybe the golden throne isn't prolonging the life of the emperor maybe it's just the name of his asylum and horus isn't the warmaster but he is the ward master and the emperor just hates him?
how often can one come into possession of such a nice kit? i think you should use it for your own... mabye get it pulled by some horses? the gunner should be replaced but you could really use it for your current army... of course i wouldn´t be tunrned off by the prospect of seeing you make an awsomodio out of it...who wouldn´t...and i could also pm you my adress ...you would be saving on postage quite a heap if you instead to dave post it to me... germany is much cheaper in terms of postage^^
i meant to say...where did that all of a sudden happen to come into your possession...
looks already good with just the gold trimmings... what other colors will be joining the scheme? and as you mentioned it already it is from a friend, will this now belong to you or are you just able to paint it for him?
no he paints it himself. i just linked the pic's from our own club site. as i am one of the founders of Rising Empire (our hobby club in Apeldoorn, Holland).
i did see it in person it's a massive beast. about the color scheme i believe it will join his black legion.
If i would buy a titan i would find a way to make it steam punk like..... and i blame you Vik! ever since i started reading your blog i am more drawn towards steam punk. curses
the last of my company command squad my grenade launcher with his missing arm
another missile launcher heavy weapon team
the gunner has a real "come here so i can smack you" expression
and my knight
size comparison
the knight needs some detailing but for the rest i like him. now i only need a name for him i toughed of Titus
but i had an even better idea. whoever can name the most bits on this model gets to name him.
the heavy weaponsteam is absolutly wicked! where the heck is that rocket rack from? that is so cool an idea!
the grenade gunner is a mit smudgy with the yellow...dunno what happend there...
and the knight... hmmm... he looks pretty cool too...for my taste he needs a head...something that could go for a head... as for the parts... absolutly no idea...onyl the two heavy bolters form the HWteam sprue^^
as for a name... i think rusty wouldn´t do him justice...but what about striker...hmm... i think i have to let that sit a bit... later on maybe i come up with a better name...^^
okay things are a little bit slow on my steampunk guy's. but i got a little bit distracted by LOTR. ik want to use isengard models as crusaders, preachers and al sorts of what nots. here are some pic's with what i want them to count as
little armour two hand weapons i say death cult assassins
big two handed weapons preachers with eviscators
the ones with hand weapon shield are clearly crusaders
the same goes for these guy's as for the normal uruk hai.
and the bastard to lead them all renegade inquisitor Bearian the Grim. note i will only use grima (the black cloaked one) and i will give him a nice story and servitors to represent his wargear. this way i can easely change equipment.
I like the idea behind this and hope it works for you, as for the rivets have you any GS and a small rubber sculptor tool ? If you have what I do is mix the GS take a really small blob stick it roughly where you want it. ( small blob is like slightly larger than the rivet size you want ) Yes that small !
Then take the sculpting tool and make sure it is pushed on to the surface securely (I cannot emphasise how important this is ) At this point it will look like a small blob of GS but spread almost flat on your model.
Now wet the end of the tool and slowly push at the edges of the GS to the middle to form a small square shape, now if you like this look you can leave it or you can continue to round it of more Riveted shape, at the end you can gently flattened the top or just leave it as it is.
Hope this helps, here is a picture of mine with the effect I achieved
interesting idea... tho i have heard that LOTR minis are slightly smaller...more truscale than heroic scale...but if that is ok with your fellow gamers... i like the idea to use urukhs for other uses... they have lots of nice features to them...
and LDD...one of these days you should do a GS step by step...dang we should have gangpressed you to do that as a initiating piece...
thanks spudkins for your kind words. i will start painting the titan again this evening.
thanks LDD i will try that i have enough greenstuff.
and yeah Vik i really like the models for LOTR but i hate the rules. and i agree to your statement that LDD should do a step by step
o yeah in two weeks time i will get a forge world model. only i don't know which model as it will be a gift from my friends so once i get that i will also post pics of it. still 2 weeks to apocalypse.
Hi fatty,
I'm checking in! I'm liking the UH conversion Idea but as vik said they are a tad smaller than 40k. Even smaller than the really small slim fragale guys, which can break on the leg. (Like tau or necrons I think). Anyway I'm liking the stuff man! Hey how about you check out my blog too? (Link is in signutre).
haha yeah size isn't the problem. if i want to i can make a high base so they stand a little bit taller. i sorted out my LOTR models
I got from a friend and i can make 3 squads of 10 or 6 of 5. it dependence on what kind of transport i want. rhino, chimera or razorback.
I lean towards the razorbacks because there isn't a lot of shooting in the list.
the only shooting will be coreaz and his servitor squad. they are there to kill my inquisitor. so that would be a very fun modeling challange
well for now there isn't much to look at. there metal models, base coated black and then painted metal again..... why i did that i really don't know tomorrow or technically today i will take some pic's of the first 3 models. there the basic models with nothing modified (for now).
i have some ideas for the shields which i will first draw on a piece of paper before i build it. which is new to me as i normally slab some parts together and then see what i made.....
and the inquisitor note that the cloak will get a few more coats of badab black. until it is a soft black color with the red inquisitor mark still showing faintly
grimma wormtongue as an inquisitor...wow...that´s something new for sure^^ ...intersting idea to use badab black to build up the black... for that i am eager to see the results...
the rusty knight...what main color will all his metalworks be in? and for that matter... why did you choose to do the details first?
it will be intersting to see how you can 40kup the urukhs...
@Vik i will try and take a pic from my FW commisar who has his cloak made the same way. and why i did the details first? spur of the moment idea and i wanted to try out freehand ribbons. i like it as it's my first try
there more of a fun project than an actual gaming project. but i will make them look more 40k like with power weapons and storm shield. these are metal models and are color testers so no fancy things for them at this point
i wanted to add wire to the blades like you see on power weapons. add some stuff to the shields and maybe make some backpack/power cell kind of things.
the reason i am doing this is to get my mind off 40K arrmies. i love the rules for 40K but i can't seem to find an army i like to play. well yes my ork's are my favorite army but they don't work on the battle field. i don't care about winning or loosing but i don't like loosing to a terrible player just because he has blood angels or something like that.
now on 3 march i will host an apoc battle. I will bring my orks and Rusty. i just realized that i don't have mega nobz
so these i build today. they will get some greenstuff but i have to wait till tuesday before i get it.
so WIP meganobz o i have the mad dok in my army (i still need to convert him) so they all have cybork bodies
smokey (he has a cigar)
nighteye
my old warboss now a meganob
AOBR meganob i know everybody has one
and monkey boy
and now an question from me for you.
i kit bashed this model and i want to know if you guy's see what it is.
i forgot to take a pic of it's back. the globe you see is part of his staff
so basically which HQ is this model :
the cockpit will be one of the battle wagon turrets as i don't use heavy weapons on my battle wagons i have a lot of spares. the gun will be a a big gun from the battle wagon. his legs will be ribbed plastic card with a lot of sprue at the back tht will function like metal piping and the likes. and a lot of scratch building. mostly PC and sprue and bendy straws.
guy's great news i found my army! as of late i was searching for an army that screamed fatty. i tried a lot of army's most can be found on my tread. but nothing felt like my army. but now (drums please) GW has released the models that scream FATTY! PAINT US!
it was also these units i wanted to play when i began with WH40K space wolfs where my first space marine codex and then i wanted to play
canis
wolf lord on thunder wolf
thunder wolves
wolves
and techno wolf
of coarse i will first finish my other project, the warboss, mega nobz and LOTR inquisitor warband + inquisitor.
but expect (read as soon as i have money) i will begin to buy these space wolfs and build my army. it's great to have a goal again
defiantly there awesome mini's and this is basically what my first ever list looked like. okay this army can't claim objectives but whenever is that important? (whisper whisper whisper) okay very important a well if i can't claim i don't have to worry about objectives. if i kill my opponent's army i auto win
ok...i think you are serious... but really...techno wolf??? again??? well i just stick around to see you paint these up a treat... but personally these models don´t do for me...but that´s the good thing indeed...as we don´t have to make all the same armies...where would be the fun in that? see case proven, case closed!^^
The problem with orks is that i can get beat by a blind 1 year old playing blood angels. now marines on wolves i agree that just looks wrong. i can't imagine the pain in the backs of the wolves. but still i will make this army.
and your right Vik this will be my army unlike my previous army attempts. i really like your steampunk army for example and i wanted to make my own steam punk army. but the point is it's not really my army. so that's why i will move back to my original puppy idea.
If something sounded offensive or if i came on too strong i am sorry. I wanted to make a point.
so wait for the warboss, warband and mega nobz because after that it will be wolves and marines on wolfs all the way
i can totally understand that you want an army that has a fair chance in a game... no hard feelings on my part here! well we have to curtesy GW for making army updates like BA or SW the way they did... but since there is no law against having multitude armies (specially not from GW^^) then i think you can have a gaming succesful army and other armies for passion and fun as well... and i wouldn´t rule out on a steampunk flavored army by you... maybe if you start by one model at a time... that way you can sort of chill out with making such a model from all the hard work you need to do to get your major army going!
Dunno i hope 1750 points.....
then again i only have to paint a whole load of wolves to paint and some 11 thunder wolves. i will know when i find my old army list
well i survived.
only a little blood loss as somebody ripped open my knee (not to badly just a few scratches and cut's)
i did knocked somebody out though he hit his head against the ground. in the end we lost the end score was...
a lot VS 7.

yep! that IS the major rule in any game... be a survivor...otherwise the game would only be called suicide ...and that is best played alone at home with your head in the oven^^
what doesn´t kill you now? well i continue this saying with my own made up end: what doesn´t kill you now will kill you eventually...yeah...me= pessimist
haha well my fingers are glued together (again). so that can only mean one thing work has began on the Warboss. pic updates will come as soon as there is something to see (and my fingers are free). i made a rough structure from sprue bits onto which i will glue my PC. torso is being built and tomorrow i will work on the head aka cockpit.
it kinda looks like a titan when i am done with it
well... i ruined the kitchen floor after i layed it... first i droped the drill on it...then i screeeeeched the fridge all over it...mind you...it is only cheap PVC so it gets hurt easily... and since the years it is now there it has suffered mutiple wounds by falling knifes... but i could succesfully hide all those bruises from the wife^^

You are lucky we had just re carpeted the new house we moved into through out, so you can imagine how happy she was with that
well... nowadays there are houses even for beaten up husbands...oh...forgott...you two are not married...well see... you are in deep...and no solution...no help...what a mess...
I once decided to light a strip of magnesium on the hob in the kitchen and then dropped it on the kitchen floor and melted the carpet. I managed to persuade my Mum that I had dropped the iron while ironing my shirt.
What you need is a beard, it gives you unholy power. And the added bonus of looking Rugged and Manly.
Remember Chuck Norris has a Beard.
Automatically Appended Next Post: For all of you unable to grow a magestic beard, now available at all good stockists. The riveted Beard plate, with real beard effect. Just rivet multiple plates to your face, and you will have the women swooning, and the men backing away in fear and respect.
there was a girl in to opposing team..... she was good.
we could tackle her as well. we couldn't shower with her though.............
Our GF's and wives wouldn't let us.
turns out our opponents weren't inexperienced as where we. 11 march they have a match to determine who will be champion in our class. 4th class to be correct
so that is solved... a girl in the mix... i thought i was seeing things
and mordain... did you sculpt that riveted plate yourself??? cool^^
and which one are you fatty? didn´t get it which one you pointed out...
and man... rugby is by far the manliest sport you could ask for... icehocky comes second place only...in the army we played a somewhat different version... we used a bootsack ( a sack to stuff your boots in for transport) and put a big and heavy blanket inside... then we played rugby with it... man that was a challenging exercise^^
oh and did you know that chuck counted to infinite...twice?
i did know that.
in the pics i am the one holding the ball.
red and yellow colors of my team the rams. the other team was from a different country Friesland. (well technically it's part of holland but it's just that all the weird folk come from friesland)
Viktor von Domm wrote:and mordain... did you sculpt that riveted plate yourself??? cool^^
I have a lump of bluetac at work, that i fiddle around with, and attempt to improve my sculpting skills with. Currently it is a dry stone wall. al a pile of sheep poo, it depends how good your imagination is.
I feel a show case of Dakkaite odd hair cuts coming on
whoa...destroy a titan...you have to field quite a bunch of models fro that task...
oh and happy belated brirthday... the older you get the less hair you will have on your head...dunno if that is in any way helping...er...i think i should have better kept that to myself^^
haha well i forgot my camera..... luckly a friend took some pretty sweet pic's.
it was a fun day we didn't destroy the titan. i did knock off a structure point with a deff kopta in close combat.
rusty did work pretty well he lost his shield but in my turn i got it back up.
my friends got me a pretty sweet b-day present.
this little fella. i can't wait to field him in a feral ork army it's only 40 points!
in the kit you get 10 boyz and a nob.....
my friends only forgot to order a big gun. luckily i have a kannon from forge world lying around
no the feral ork list from chapter approved 2004. states that this is a small squiggoth. as its about 6 inch from head to tail. everything under 6 inch is small and between 6 and 9 is medium. this one is just below 6 inch. that means it is 40 points. and it must carry a big gun that costs between 25 and 30 points.
and it's a heavy support not apoc just heavy
and pic's
this one has great depth perception
the house behind the brown landraider. got shot to bits by my shock attack gun double 6

after the battle we started counting kill points just for fun. we made 16 kill points. we where counting .... Okay you got 14 kill points from us o wait we forgot criminal how many kill points did they got from you? 16........ only two kill points from you? no 16........................
so it was 16 vs 30 kill points and they got there objective.
the table was so big even the unlimited range weapons fell short
yeah there keepers.
@LDD and yes the alinement USKCS (please place letters in the correct order)
a lot of greenstuff and a nice fresh basecoat and the bad boy is ready for painting.
of topic
today we had another rugby match. against the same opponent as last week and this time we had a score board. 56 - 0 for them........
next week we play against Amsterdam
Automatically Appended Next Post: all right word update,
the squiggoth is green. i tried shadow grey but i didn't like it so i made him green. i like it but i have to do something to make him look a little bit better.
the armor plates will be a nice solid red....... no not red our jersey's are yellow and red not red and yellow stupid stupid stupid.
sorry i am a little tiered. so soon i will cover the red in some dhepe stone and paint them yellow.
the howdah will be yellow with two red bands and the ork head symbol in the front will look like my rugby club's badge thingy.
i also found a place for the boyz that come with the squiggoth i will make madboyz out of them. and they will be modeled kind of like rugby players
and instead of a ball they will pass around a rocket..... there mad i tell you mad! i will make 15 in total
the pic of the squiggoth is in a couple of post earlier although that one is painted by forge world painters.
i am #1a forward my job is to die......
okay that sounds gruesome but it's basically what my position is all about. if i have the ball i just run until i am tackled.
like this:
if they have the ball i need to tackle the ball carrier. and in a scrum
i am on the first row putting my head in the opponents arm pit and just push.
LOL... yeah rugby... truly a game for real men! no other sport has that much lost teeth and torn ears... i have heard that many players tape their ears to the head... man that is dedication...
Automatically Appended Next Post: by the way... does that mean your position is something of a line breaker or quaterback? i am not frim in football or rugby... please forgive me my know how...or rather the lack of it^^
we have two large groups.
forwards who are big strong players who arn't that fast.
these players are numbered 1 to 8
and three quarters faster guy's who pass and run.
these players are numbered 11 to 15
9 and 10 are players who mostly remain untouched. they receive a lot of balls but they quickly pass them off again.
my position is of #1 is a forward but in a scrum i am a prop. the lose head prop. which means i am only pushing one guy my head has room to move and is lose.
the #3 is also a prop but he has his head locked between two other players. he is the lock head prop.
i cant think i would rememeber my role in such a fast and violent game... for you for being so professional about what you are supposed to do... i think that takes up a lot to be able to fulfill that role in such a game!
sorry long day.....
left home at 7:00 got home at 19.45
first day at a new intern ship.
tomorrow i have an even longer day.
then i will leave my house at 7:00 and get back around 22:00
my boss during internship back in the days was used to doing 14 hrs shifts... and he said... if i can do it...all can... so sometimes we had to work 14 hrs too... i really hated that man...

Really sorry to hear that mate sympathies go to you and your family .
yeah Vik i am okay. in times like this i really don't mind me being emotionless and all . i found a name for my squig goth. my grandfather was the one who introduced me to art and painting.
and my first piece of art i got was a small painting called thingy (painted by my grandfather). the painting is still in my possession in a sealed vault.
in times like this i really don't mind me being emotionless and all
kiddin`right?
and... do you plan to name your quiggoth now after your gandpa? or did i get that wrong? it is a weird hommage but then you spread the good word for him and that is a nice thing... even if a bit strange...
