First, I want to plug my thanks to Army Transport. I ordered a Motorpool on Monday and I got it today (Wednesday). It doesn't get better than that. Go out there and buy it this month for 30% off. You know you want it. The quality is top-notch and it fits BF foams too :-).

My brother got into Warhammer so he got himself some Bretonnians. Since it is used, he got a jewelry cleaner. This is prime time for me to repaint my termies to be Deathwing scheme. Do you guys think I should do this? Or perhaps I should finish up that Predator?

Oh yeah, and I shelled out some cash for some stuff from Chapter House Studio as well. They got combi-meltas that is convertible to other kind of combis for less than half the cost of ebay.

Nice action shots! Love seeing those models in action! And, thanks for the tip for Chapter house. I'll look them up!

I'm still debating purchasing more storage, I need it, but I don't know if I want to buy it right now. I've got a few more days in Feb to figure that out though.

I might try to get up to Fat Ogre tomorrow evening or sometime this weekend, if I don't wind up at GW Tomball. I need to finish out my Kill Team League games.

How are you doing with the league?

I haven't been up for a while. Will be there tomorrow and Sunday to finish out the league games.

About the combi-stuff from Chapter House Studio, they have a kit that can convert amongst ALL the combi options for $5 (that comes with magnets to put into predrilled holes) and they have any specific combi upgrade for $1.5 and the gun where the combi-upgrade comes on top for $2.

Get the termines stripped first then finish off pred.

Hehe. Yeah that was what I ended up doing since my Terminators have been doing so well in the latest games. I didn't strip the Tactical ones but instead opted for the Assault ones. I should have them sprayed and ready for painting up soon.

The predator didn't do so well in the last two games so it can wait. Once it has more glory under its track (see what I did there?), I will paint it up.

So I got the Land Speeder Storm NOS for cheap for a fellow gamer a local store. He must have snipped some of the pieces on the sprues to put a more interesting pose on his 5-scout man. This is from a Megaforce box which he bought during Christmas season. Since I forgot to check the sprue :(, it was to my dismay that I am unable to get the gunner and the dude who is loading his magazine is missing a leg.

Well, I "kind of" fix it by moving the dude loading the magazine into the front and hiding it away with the gun that I will put on :-). Most the stuff has been painted up, I am still missing some final details of course.

The LS is looking good there mate. Is the scout's hair meant to be the same colour as the armour or will you paint that different later?

Yeah, the scout faces + hairs are not done. Their bolters are not washed either. I will finish them later on.

Thanks for the compliment.

Nice, soooo good now its finished!

@Hazzer: Thanks for checking it out.

I sprayed, washed and clean up 3 of the 5 termies. Whenever I finished layering, I use the hair dryer to make it dry faster. With 2 coats or so, the lines are nicely defined.

I haven't found a good color combination for the shield yet, do you guys recommend any specific color combination?

Maybe something with the green and red(?) you used on the scouts, may kinda overpower it though if too much.

Cool beans

I picked out the details and cleaned up the washes for all 5 terminators. More to come.

Just found your thread. The bone is very impressive. Takes a lot of work to get such a smooth finish. And for an entire army? Like I said very impressive. And I love the Librarian.

Hey, 40kFSU, thanks for the compliments, I try my best but some time trying to get the bone color in place is such a drag.

UPDATE: the stuff from Chapter House Studio has arrived. Now I need to get myself a second Land Raider since these damn doors are just too awesome looking.

You guys, which option is better:
Master of the Forge on foot with a conversion beamer (stuck him with a 5-man tactical squad as meat shield)
Master of the Forge on bike with a conversion beamer (stuck him with a 3-man bike squad as meat shield)

Last game, my proxied MotF on bike with 3 attack bike got taken out first turn with 4 blood strike missles + 1 multimelta from a Storm Raven

I am finishing up my termies so I can move on to my converted master of the forge.

The conversion beamer is from Chapter Houst Studio. The body and head and shoulder pad is from the Ravenwing upgrade sprue. His left hand is holding an auspex (quite fitting really). What do you guys think his right hand should hold?

Right now I have him holding a bolt pistol since it is part of his wargear but maybe there is something cooler that he can bring?

MotF looks good there mate.

Thunderfire cannon has been doing so well that I decided to repaint parts of it. I also added some seals to him as well.

Since the thunder fire cannon is available in metal, the surface of the model is not flat like plastic. I added decoration to hide away some of this blemishes.

Master of the forge with conversion Beamer is almost done. Just some basing and work up that Beamer osl effect.

Looking good there. I especially like the cloth.

@swordwind: thanks. I like it too.

I finished off more stuff for Pedro. What do you think?

Kantor looks great! Everything looks great infact. Keep up the good work mate, cant wait to see more!

The motf and pedro are looking gos man! My only critsem would be to paint the left shoulder pad green or your chapter coulor to show which chapter he belongs with.

@Hazzer: Thanks. Hmm, I wonder what I should free hand in there. The shoulder pad is already in the Angel of Absolution color, maybe I can try to free hand the chapter symbol.
@Thatguy91: Thanks for checking and the compliment.

I added the servo skull to my Master of the Forge conversion. I also blend the plasma glow on the conversion beamer. I think it is not there yet but this is the best plasma glow I have gotten so far. I have also based him. He is ready for battle now.

Nicely done dude! Kantor is coming along great, I love the smooth clean colour of the armour the bold colours work well with him, you're amassing a great looking army!

NF09

Thank you for checking it out Nerdfest09. I will work some more details into Kantor and probably do some highlights.

I add the groin and shoulder joint protectors to the assault terminators. I also start basing them. Now, what color should the sand be?

Now that my scout boys are done. I am working on revising these 5 scouts. The middle one has the style of basing that I want. A local player was kind enough to show me how to achieve this effect.

The long grass on the base looks cool. Gitsplitta has a tutorial on basing that includes long grass; you may find that useful.
