I've finally got some pictures to show everyone. I've had some work done on the basecoating of the zep, I've also finished the bike and gunners (but no pics yet).

I've also painted 2 Zoanthropes and 1 Pyrovore but I never got any pics of those before I returned them to the owners - the local game shop.

Some more bits and pieces. A Wraith that was sitting in my bits box I decided to put together and paint a few weeks ago, also the progress on the Valkloon.

The blending on you latest post, pic 3, is VERY good. I would never have enough time to do that with an Ork. Very impressive!

Here's where I'm up to . I haven't even touched the balloon yet - I'm not sure how I want to go about painting that sucker yet. I'm still thinking about it - maybe cover it with pigeon crap - that would be funny as.

Anyhoo:



















There's still a lot more to do yet - this is the stage before the serious weathering takes place!

This really is a awesome blog of randomnes!

The real threat to the imperium is not:

it is :
92% of teens have moved on to rap. If you are one of the 8% who still listen to real music, copy and paste this into your sig.
95% of teens would go into a panic attack if the jonas brothers were about to jump off the empire state building copy and paste this if you are the 5% who would pull up a lawn chair grab some popcorn and yell JUMP BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GENERATION 6: The first time you see this, copy and paste it into your sig and add 1 to the number after generation. Consider it a social experiment.

What's next then?

This is the latest bit of work I've done - I've attempted to make this Mawloc appear to be bursting from the ground, I'm relatively happy with it but if I do it again I'll definitely do it a bit differently.

I love the dead pilot in the v'loon. Classic details like that make orks so awesome.

For roughly the last 3 or so weeks I've been doing up some more nids in the background. I've got a batch of Genestealers and some Rippers I found sitting in a box so I decided to make up some swarms. These are also for the shop here and they give him roughly 1000 pts in a small force to play around with now. Not sure if I'd like to face his force with a small army but it could prove interesting!

Ok, I've been quiet for a while. That's because I've been doing stuff but not speeding through it just stuffing around.

Anyways - I've managed to build 11 bikers and 7 additional tactical marines for my Dark Angels army, and when I had that finished I finally got to do some test models for the army. These are basic troops so let me know what you think about the scheme. I'm not a huge fan of the basic DA colourscheme so I "Lemminged" it.

Have a look and let me know what you think and if there is anything you think I should alter to improve the overall look.

Loving the Dark Angels! Dark enough to seperate em from salamanders, highlights and purple eyes make em stand out just enough IMO, great job!

Maybe the guns could get alittle more attention? A tiny line of silver/grey along the top edges maybe?

If this was yours originally - I'm sorry I had to do it.

I had to strip off all the rivets and start again I just had to.

Christo sent me this one to work on recently and I'm stripping it back to a bare shell before riveting it again with something a bit smaller. I've also been tweaking some cosmetics.

I have to say though, the panel lines on this thing are BRILLIANT! They're very nicely done and mostly very straight - I wish I could do as well.

Over the next few days I'll still be cleaning it up, puttying up some holes and cleaning some edges up before I get back to riveting this beast.

Oh, yeah. I'm back with something new





Disclaimer: I didn't build this - but I am partially rebuilding it and then painting it. It's quite a good construction, I just need to fill some joins and redo the rivets and a few other cosmetics.
