@ Lucifer
Nice red Don't forget that you can leave the right pad off for inquisitorial reasons

Oh yes, thanks for reminding me, I will be removing the pad.
And its just straight up blood red (it will look better after the badab black wash, I hope)

hmm, guess it's the photo then that made it look a little fancier .

Well, I did highlight it, and give it a grphon... sepia ink wash, so it is a little fancy

Ok few updated pics ( under flash I'm afraid)

Sage



Needs a bit of stuff on the tracks, right arm and weapon and some wiring. And the base. And some little things I just noticed

schank



Bit of tidying on the back ball, rokkits and tubes.
Now, I didn't think that any way I attached mini to base would stand up all that well to travel, all seemed a bit fragile to me, so I decided to magnetise it for ease of transport. It seems pretty good, but you may decide you want to glue it when you get it First attempt I switched the whole back ball for a spherical magnet, then had to try and remove it next day when I remembered why I didn't use those ones on anything before - as it picked up tweezers, chain and a couple of smaller magnets

amazing models!

Those are off-the-hook MT... great job converting and painting!

@monkeytroll That looks fantastic. Let me know when your ready. To swap. I have some detail work to do but thats about it.

I wasn't completely sold on them before, but the paint job really brings them to life! Well done sir!

These are just so preposterously... ORKY! I love them. I'm going to raid my Ork buddies' bits boxes so I can do something orkinatory.

So I haven't fallen completely off the face of the earth! Here are some pictures of an finished marine for brother_zach :





EDIT: Gitsplitta helped with tweeking the first photo, looks alot more natural and the yellow light is now gone

Hey.... that's lookin good Gretar. Man your painting has really improved by leaps and bounds since this started. As has most of ours now that I think of it...

Great Job Gretar. I second Gits observation of your improving skills. Keep it up.

I concur with the above 2 warbosses One of the great things about threads like this is watching various peeps improve over a fairly short period of time, adds extra interest to the whole thing.

Agreed, and when you get to golden demon level, I want a trade!

Lol =) Thank you all for the comments

Finally got some painting in. Thanks to the wind and rain gods

GIt's MW space Hulk Objective marker - done

Can anyone tell me how to resize a picture in my gallery and well as how to post her items in my gallery... yes I don't post alot of pics...

I start work on whalemusic360 space marine.... Only thing is the wife has the camera.... stupid camera stealing wife.... But here what I've got so far. I'm using a set of assault marine legs to make look as if he is charging into battle, the torso with the wings and skull, the left arm is a power sword swept down and back behind, and a plasma pistol aimed straight ahead, used an old metal assault marine head with no helmet, gonna use a veteran sgt shoulder pad and deck it out with seals. Once I get the camera back I'll post a pic. My description might not do it justice. I really like how the pose turned out. Still in the beginning phase so still alot of detail work to be done. Not even primed yet. Will have more later after I get muy hands on that camera stealing succubus....... Oh Hi sweetie. I didn't realize you where.Hey what are you doing with that knife..No! Stop! I didn't mean it....Aaaaarrrggghhaaa....................................

LOL, guess thats one marine I can kiss goodbye now that poor schank got shanked

Seriously though that sounds great! I think I may have to do a second ork to make it more even, mine is a lame 'ol Black reacher. I've kinda wanted to try a not-green ork anyways.


Looks good SL, very un-BA. I assume you figured out the picture delema then?

WM almost done. I need to do some armor damage clean up (and fix the hand paint job), finish the weapon detailing and add some accessories to the marine for effect, dull coat and add some folage for the basing. Whew other than that it almost done.I call it the "leap". I'm hoping to be done tonight and in the mail on by the weekend. The model look better than the super close up picture.

on another note I am almost finished with Gits DW sargeant and I added another tropper for the squad as well. ( these are my test schemes for my Adepticon Lamentors army) .

I'll get a better pictures. All I have is my phone camera. Both can be seen in my Gallery. Thou they look better as thumbnails... hummmm.

Thanks.. Yours is now in my gallery...I have some accessorizing and some details to sort out. Over all I'm pretty happy with it. I wish My whites were overall better.
Nope: Way too close and detailed. They look great at normal close up. I have to get more pic. and practice with the blackberry phone camera.

Thanks for being patient.

Really nice job brother... be a perfect addition to my Mantis Warriors who as yet don't have any serious objectives! The Lamenters look really good too. Your yellow is coming along nicely. What color are you priming them?

BTW that assault cannon terminator is sweet.

Boooooo! Marines! MORE ORKS!!!!!

That's what all my marines say when they still have ammo left over.

As soon as I get these done I'm on to a squad of Kommando's for thing 2. My first Orks in 12 years..

@ SL - That guy really looks like hes jumping into the $#!* to mess some folks up. No worries on the speed, I'm rather slow as well.

@ Schank - Arent you supposed to be wife-murdered?

Does that mean I get to keep his Trukk?

Pretty sure he left it to me in his will.......

Sage - Just realised I need to do a bit more work on the face, but there's a chance it might get sealed over the weekend

schank - if your ghost can read this, same applies to yours, if you could get in contact and let me know who you want to get in in your place. Then get in contact as I believe there's some money waiting if we can prove survival after death

an00bis - sorry to be such a tease, but yours just decided to do it's own thing, still is for that matter So you just get a slighly different pile of bits

score, im happy it will take longer, cuz yours i hope to get done by this weekend!

I've gone and finished Porkuslime's Assault Marine and An00bis' Space marine. I'll get pics up either tonight or tomorrow and get them in the mail by Friday.

More Orks!
