Okay, i'm not dead. I swear! I'm just really close to finishing my first 40k book. Well, at least the first draft of it.

That however is on another thread. This one is all about some P&M, so lets see what I've done here lately. I got bits picked out for Gits. I started on my Tiger Claw Talon. I got my Tiger Claw tanks all oranged and ready for some new paint. OH, i did put some paint on my marine for Ramos. That makes me feel better, I did at least something. Unfortunately it seems my projects are growing while the progress on them is practically nonexistent.

I need to hurry up and get the fluff out of my head and onto dakka, then I'm hoping I can get motivated to get back into the painting.

Looking forward to reading it Ice! And seeing some new models too!

It seems the moment I start complaining about motivation, an opportunity presents itself. My buddy, who has the airbrush, had some time today. It just so happened to be when my son was going down for a nap so I seized the initiative and went over to his place for a bit. I managed to mess around with a couple Tiger Claw swaps I've been working on.


Originally I was trying all new colors to see if I could use other brands and mixes to imitate the orange on the Tiger Claw on the left. After quite awhile of mixing and spraying various models and things I discovered that they were not turning out very close to my test model, so I took them as is and hit them with a final few layers of the old orange that GW doesn't produce any more. My friend just happened to have some which was convenient.

What do you guys think? I think once I hit it with some washes and some final highlights it should turn out pretty close to what I was looking for.

TBH, the orange looks a bit lighter, though quite close to the original model...

I'd say "go for it" !!

I think once I hit the airbrushed guys with a wash or two they should appear even closer. That will be one of my next steps.

Looks pretty solid to me, Ice. Biggest difference between the two is your shading, so the washes should do it perfect for ya!

Happy Thanksgiving everybody! At least to those that celebrate it, happy normal day to everyone else. I know it was yesterday and all but I was too busy cooking and feasting to post. Today, to my surprise, I received a model in the mail from another hemisphere. Brother-Mortifex Zhufiri, 9th Company, Star Phantoms chapter, arrived today safe and sound. He came with some awesome paper work and a super neat post card. Pics of all of it will soon follow. First he needs some basing done.

Here is proof of his arrival.


Here is proof that he is now in the company of Captain Razzik and his company.

"Stand there?" Brother Zhufri asked while pointing to room on the shelf.
"No, over there." Captain Razzik pointed the same spot.


Here is proof that he looks awesome.

I want to take my finger and write "wash me!" on his backpack when the marine isn't looking.

But he does look awesome.

As initiation in to the company each new marine has to run in full battle gear the Gauntlet of frag grenades. A trial where the young Marine traverses a obstacle course and his fellow marines throw frag munitions to keep him moving while also helping the seasoned Marines to pass the time between war zones.

See Zhufri Run! Run Zhufri Run!

Look, progress! I actually got some paints out and started getting things done recently. Still need a gun and some touch ups on these guys. I've got an Ice Angel I've been working on too. Expect more pictures soon.
