I love the variety and wonderful spectrum of models you show us on this blog, but seeing a tank in production brought a tear to my eye, at last a return to the real world.
All looking great, looking forward to your basing efforts, but yeah really want to see that tank hunter develop.
I understand, and there will be more pics of the Tank Destroyer, I promise. In the meantime, these little guys were left on my porch and needed a bath, some work, and a home.

Next phase to the basing for a battle affected and scorched/bleached land is the base dark gray, any gray seems to work well, so a dark stone, or other gray laid down first helps.

[/img] 
[/img] 
after touching up the base coat of dark, I then use a light gray like Reaper's "Weathered stone" or other light gray dry-brushed on the dark.

Brilliant work Shas, and thanks for the step by step on the basing. Always good to see how people do things. Hope there are many who will gain from this. Basing is so overlooked. Just go through the gallery some time. These are very well balanced, compliment the model and look great without drawing too much attention. Thanks for sharing bud.

Really nice work shas! I like how you've worked the tufts and flock together, don't forget you tend to find all sorts of plants growing together depending on the environment with bushy grasses providing some elemental protection.
As cam says its not many people that put that much effort into basing, and I've noticed fewer still use flock these days, sadly.
I like how the metallic greens are contrasting with the reds of the clothing(?)

As for the TD, it's whatever makes you happy. Since I figured you started it as a Human vee, why not finish it as such? Of course, the Orks WILL steal anything and make it ROIGHT PROPPA. And I haven't seen a lot of your Ork stuff in this thread. So it would be a change.

The D-10, why did I order this? because in the past, I enj9oyed playing FASA's Star trek: Combat simulator, and this ship could take and dish out a decent pounding in combat! I would hammer Federation and other opponents using this as my command cruiser with a squadron of D-7's and DDs and use it as central fire support with powerful disruptors and photon torpedoes as those were the weapons for that game.

He actually is mixing elements and shapes from several Star Trek series and genres. That D-16 Destroyer for example is a game ship from an old game by FASA mixed with some of the design pieces from the Klingon ships from the Kelvin Timeline+TMP style.
Here, this D-4 for example is a mix of Enterprise(engines and bridge section on a Next- Gen/DS9 style hull/wing

[/img]

[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img]

I have seen a old school Star Fleet Battles style transport with pods under-slung from the war ship style hull.
So takes and matches/mixes stuff, but has some ships designed as they should be from ST: TMP(K' tinga models), TOS D-6 is TOS style, but he has also some Axanar style D-6's and he will modernize older designs as seen with mixing the parts for the D-24 shown above. I do like what he has done and have a fleet. Enjoy the latest images.I have some more to load in!

Yes he is good at the designs and mixing and matching the aesthetics but staying in Klingon design principles. Speaking of, he has a half dozen new designs out!

Anyway, I do have a new thing, it arrived yesterday in the mail, and I had to put it on a base and start work on the new D-5 squadron leader for my Klingons, it is more detail loaded than the original; 2, have to get them out and compare them. As you can see, I still keep to the WW2 style painting scheme of a pale lower surface and a darker upper.

Okay so not so new a topic, but I have rested and have done some work on some new ships, and for my Birthday new troops I feel fit a force for ground troops since i use the Garmillas ships in the RP/story I work with others on, I feel the aliens I run (a mix of Cardassians and Garmillas) that the best troops are from the Infinity Yu Jing. models.
Klingon vessel one is a cruiser with swept forwards wings
[/img] 
FASA made a design years ago named the "Grim Reaper" well this is a Next Gen like version
[/img] 
These 4
{/img] 
Plus this gal
[/img] 
will make a full 5 person fire team of the UruKhar Imperial Shock force, Powered armor with personal shields and phaser style weaponry
Supported by these 2 heavy troopers with their heavy weapons ready to deliver crushing blows to their foes.
[/img] 
Dual form high mobility and combat suit

And the heavy tactical assault gear armored suit that acts as a light tank for the squadies

dual form powered armor with a Polaron rifle with flamer attached, Humanoid form using Vibro blade flat piec on back is a stealth field.

Well, the concept for me is that they are humanoids, but not humans. Bald guy will have a special skin tone and painted on details..
Meanwhile I got Agent G on the job and they do stand a head or so above them. Consider the males to be between 6ft 3in for short to 7ft for max, females are same more along 7ft as reptilian DNA makes females the larger of the sexes in reptilian species. Now to let the images speak.
no flash

With flash. Even with him out front of the line, Agent G has their heads showing above his!

[/img] 
"Striking Black Mamba" Gatling phaser cannon

Although these two heavy suits are both employed by the UruKhar Empire(DiY), they each encompass different design philosophies for the battlefield. The AN-C1 "Anaconda" is built for survivability under the heaviest of fire with layers of composites, mono-molecular aligned matrix armor, and other classified durable materials, covered by strong defense shields, moving silently for it's size, and made to handle power loads almost like a construction machine, the AN-C1 can deliver powerful hammer blows if it is left with just punches and kicks but as seen carries a large power blade, and heavy phaser cannon with the ability to change particles from Nadion to Tetryon or better.
The lighter and faster MA-M8 "Mamba" is capable of swift strikes punching and kicking, as well as sword strikes with it's "Lightning" blade. It carries a Polaron/Phaser canno9n, and is similar in armor and shields to the "Anaconda" just less weight for swifter speeds, and each can be a lethal combo, complimenting each traits together in combat. Power supplies and servos are classified as well, making these large suits as sneaky as their smaller powered armor brethren that they support during heavy combat missions.
for logistical reasons they stand similar in height, but as can be seen the AN-C1 is bulkier and thickly built, while the MA-M8 is slimmer and looks like it is running while standing still.
[/img] 
As can be seen here, they each have different approaches even to their power plants design, but again that is classified
[/img] 
again the entirety of differences in the design of each shows the philosophical divergence, heavy duty or rap[ id strike

Okay I know it has been a while since last paint update, but the last batch got some of the coppery orange and some other colors laid down at last! So, without further ado, I present the latest batch closing in on and catching up with the previous batch of troopers.
Hacker team
[/img] 
Jump team increased from 2 to 4 members
[/img] 
Command and administrative agent got his coat updated as well.
[/img] 
and
[/img] 
and here the Big Mech front and both sides showing
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
Of course as with most of paint sprees, I can see touch ups and some fixing is needed, so that will also be part of the next paint wave.

Hi all, I know, another distraction for the 'ole Shas'O, but was feeling Nostalgic for the old days of SW and when I saw these kits that theoretically can scale along with the mecha collection fighters of My Garmillas fleet, I had to get the kits , as seen in these pics, I am working on the Advanced T.I.E. and the regular Imperial T.I.E. fighters that came as a one box set! and it does have this odd display stand ability.
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
As can be seen, these little guys are packed with details by Bandai. Hats off to them for so much good work on so small a scale. they seem 1/100 or maybe 1/144 scale. I hope to do them some justice as I paint them up. Automatically Appended Next Post: Sitting next to the T.I.E. was this little guy, so yeah got the X-Wing as well. Now am set, and ready to prime and paint it as well, and it has decals that are likely easier to put on and less confusing, the Tie's had decals that I can replace with paint, I may add some colored markings on them. Anyway, here is my Income T-65 X-wing
[/img] 
[/img]

Was worried as the parts were small, they did go together cleanly, and the laser cannons actually were flexible enough not to snap when cutting them free with care.

So, the Mowang I pre-ordered finally arrived (Mail delayed a day past expected delivery date of the 3rd), based on what I can see of him compared to other suits, the pilot has their hands in the fore-arms and control manipulators that are large hand shaped devices, and their feet are in the the calves, but the feet of the suit are not the pilot's but similar to the manipulators.
Meet the Devil King Or D3-V1L K-1-N6 Heavy powered armor
[/img] 
[/img] 
As you can see, it has four arms to make initially 2 models, but with some changes I can go past the HMG/Flamer and hand cannon, Handcannon+Red-Fury and I can do one as dual heavy weapons, and the Sgt with dual handcannons

and once again Agent G stands next to it, and you see the M-0 W-4 N-6 is a BIG beasty!

And colors for their ridged panels, Sergeant gets the blue, troops get the field gray/green color, and their metal muscles/cables and handrails

Still, there is so much left to do on all of them!

Hi guys! I am back with the assembled and inked Shasvastii. They were quite fiddly to assemble, but the inking is a base that highlights the details for me, before I go and prime them with pure black primer.

Shrouded

Heavy sniper

Okay so Ink on metal as we all know is no primer coat, and well, I primered the troops
Gamma unit

Alright, maybe this will bring more questions, I did do the red plus over brush of orange on the armor, dark is adamantium black, and the carapace is a weathered bone+Muddy olive blend, did a deep red for eyes and mouth with yellow for the pupils. I will do a a wash on the carapace of the buggos to get into crevices, and a dry over in spots of the bone then maybe add some spots in a dark color for added fun. Let me know what you all think so far.

Calban, I made his skull helm different than the art on the book and box.

Cadmus, looks simple enough for the line eh?
[/img] 
[/img] 
Mentor with Machine gun standing over a corpse
[/img] 
[/img] 
Not as many parts as I thought he would have.
Now we get to the Speculo killer, the truly complicated model of the lot
[/img] 
[/img] 
All those complex arrangements of parts!
And finally for my UruKhar Empire troops, a Hulang agent which will be classified as a Boomslang (Snake theme going on here)
[/img] 
[/img] 
Just clean up parts and assemble! 
I will do a picture spread of assembly especially for the bug-girl.

cleaned parts.

[/img] 
with torso and head added
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
She was fiddly and was not very cooperative to being assembled, but finally relented and the glue has cured!
Cadnus was easier as his back-pack and arms were a single piece and his head and body were another
[/img] 
Assembled and with a human figure of Agent G for some idea how tall the bugs get
[/img] 
I will have a image of the Mentor, he was also like the Cadmus a 2 piece assembly.

Trying to get my old mojo back, so to speak, 
the one foot and rock at least are a solid molded piece, the rest is what got so dang fiddly! 
and thanks again, I did what I could with her.
Meanwhile, I have the Mentor assembled. He was also a 2 piecer, so not much to show for him, but here he is with Agent G for scale purpose for show. He is slouched so keep that in mind.

Yeah, the new blisters were fairly easy to come by via miniatures market, you may have a more local store carrying the Infinity stuff!
Thanks! a micro-chute in case she falls may help!
Meanwhile, I got to work on the Hulang which I intend to use for my narrative alien army, UruKhar specialist for dealing with troublesome targets in the B-00-M-5L-4-N6 Powered suits aka "Boomslang" as codded by outsiders.

I intend to! Holed up in my lair, I received some new troops, but am working on getting details for others finished, but I will share with you all, the new units that arrived, I did order another, but considering the situation of Spain, I am thinking it will be delayed for some time, and that may mean the easier breathing of possible opponents. Here is what I ordered that is delayed. Female is in the image to give a grasp of the size of the Bio-Mechanoid beasty on order from Corvus Belli
As for the units I mentioned that arrived and await assembly and painting? Why, these two air-borne ladies of alien origins

I have been doing some dry brush work to age the dark armor of the buggos and Bio-mechanoids, then I must do flesh tones, so their images will be coming up soon.

On another note, I did dry brush the Adamantium black with shadowed steel, a dark metal in it's own right to make the armor look more full of depth. First up are the three Buggos I needed to do that to.
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
I am thinking of making the coats and such a dark brown base.
Now I have also the Bio-mechanoids of the Unidron squad.
[/img] 
[/img] 
Now that the main armor color is done, I can dry brush the outer flesh of the red muscle zones showing. Shooting them in those areas however is like hitting steel reinforced Ballistic Rubber.
And now the armor of the Anathematic, a major big fighting unit, is also dry-brushed as the others. Definitely makes his/her armor look odd doesn't it?

[/img]

These biomechanoids so hard to tell where the tech and and the fleshy bits actually begin eh?

Yeah, we had a lot of water cooled vickers machineguns and not much else, hence the very large, very phallic armoured covers.
There was one test vehicle that mounted twin 25 pounders side by side in the turret. The idea being that you don't need a 17 pounder to recoil test a 17 pounder being fired in your tank.

Thanks guys, I have to finish the killer synthoid, and also have started a new model for my 1/1000 collection too! Klingon D-6 from the Axanar fan film from 2014, and future upcoming 2-parter Here are the warp nacelles, Impulse reactor/shuttle bay area and the upper bridge partrs.

Hull and neck-to-bridge with under panel, the neck is also very nice due to metal insert to keep it from sagging when assembled.

Neck support struts, warp nacelle components, shoulder cannons, and trailing edges of the wings.

pointy bits are the four impulse engine sections, (makes it very maneuverable), rectangles are panels for the warp engines, th smaller 2 parts are the back ends of the war engines, the dome is of course the classic Klingon bridge section ball.

Overall a very chonky beast, and one that seems slightly de-greased, but the base indicates a warm-soapy wash is needed, and then filing down spots as seen, then I should be able to ink it and then primer it. And it is kind of a tank for the C.A.

I look forward to seeing some more armour again .
The Meng "world war toon" tanks are great fun . I've built a few and they are an absolute breeze to put together. You will really enjoy building them .
So far, I have assembled/converted 12 King Tigers (ten Leman Russ variants, 1 Hydra and 1 Chimera), 4 Tiger 1s (4 Taurox) and a Churchill (Hellhound)... I have another 9 King Tigers, waiting to be converted into Chimeras .
My one piece of advice for these kits is to wash them thoroughly in a decent detergent because the sprues tend to be very greasy when you take them out of the packaging and they won't hold paint without a good wash .

Somewhere in my pile of plastic and resin, I have a BA-64B in 1/48 scale, which was supposed to be for the Imperial Guard Gun Truck I did awhile back. 1/48 was too small (I used a Tamiya 1/35 scale kit for the basis) but I got some Grots to one day make a Keystone Grots Kar piece. I'll be interested to see how your project advances- maybe inspire me to get back to starting on mine!

[/img] 
A proud commander of a mighty Grot-Tank

using wrongly derived blueprints,,,opr just ideas in their heads, the Grots of thius army have made strides in making vehicles for combat for their size!Once ready, scrap plates will be added to help protect the sides and such

Those are really cool looking. I keep seeing them at Hobby Lobby and on the 40% off model kit weeks they are quite tempting.
I've just got too many small and vintage tank options for my Squats already.

Nice work Shaso, barrel almost big enough to fit a grot.
I'll be catching back up hopefully soon.

It's amazing how the extra track, equipment, totems and other gubbins have dressed the overall look up so much on these- perfect Grot contraptions!

Ah, collections can get out of hand at times!

Yeah, some of the guns are oddly bulky, need to scrounge up some gubbinz to make more than standard Kannons and such
Thanks all for the kind words!
Here is that Pz-38t worked up so far as tank #4

And here is #5, all alive and is sort of a T-34/76 looking contraption!

So, final tanks for conversion were heavies, so here is the Porsche Tiger
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
that turret back needs some glyph plates methinks.
And the biggest chibi tank, the King
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
will be adding extra armor plates here and there to all the tanks, and where needed skirting

Here is the current state of the tanks before I go and add skirt plate scraps and other added on plates that are not glyphs or numbers

Automatically Appended Next Post: Okay I did look at the comparison with a Chimera(Kymera) chassis and the results were interesting to say the least, here is babay shermie with the Argus APC
[/img] 
[/img] 
here is the S-35 with the Argus
[/img] 
[/img] 
So far the APC is massing out past the grot tanks
38t with Argus
[/img] 
[/img] 
Okay, now we are getting bigger grot tanks, more mass more armor, so far kannons may attach gubbinz to make meaner weapons attached.
KV Tonk with Argus
[/img] 
[/img] 
The '34 tonk with Argus carrier
[/img] 
[/img] 
And now we come ot the biggest, meanest, heaviest Grot Tanks!
P-Tiger with Argus, Looks very chunky!
[/img] 
[/img] 
And finally in the checking scale of things pics is the Argus with the K-Tiger the King!
[/img] 
[/img] 
Extra thicc tonk!

I had to add some additional scrap parts of plates on the armor, next once the glue is set, priming will happen
Grotman M-4, Plates for the most part were kept simplistic and to have a rushed and slapped on feel. The Grotman M4 is a sturdy and speedy vehicle, perfect for sneaking like Grots do.

Some of the others got small amounts of "armor upgrades" as it were, here is Squiggua 35 which is a durable and tough grot tank.
