Haha wow. I didn't even make the Iron Man reference from the paint job. I really am quite dense sometimes....

Finished Not-Cawdor gang for classic Necromunda... Painted mostly with washes to get it done quickly. Pretty happy with how they turned out.

Cool Not-Cawdor gang .

While it does look like the landing pose I almost think tony had one too many drinks and just fell over .

Venturing back inside the (cardboard) box...

Just needs a dumpster out back for the bots that couldn’t pay.

After useful parts have been scavenged of course .

Just a suggestion, some sort of support columns for those outer corners of the over hang also would work beside the suggestion by Theo for a dumpster.

I did consider supports under the awning, but decided against for simplicity and to allow for easier model movement under there. Floating awnings aren't too impractical, provided they're built from strong enough materials.

Nice piece of kit! It needs one of those air hose bells that ring when you drive over it....

Playing with Contrast paints some more, this time trying for a layered shading effect rather than just glopping it on. Mixed results, but seems to work.

How much 'faster' do you feel you are getting good-enough-results with contrast paints, in comparison?

The 'just slop it on' approach is obviously faster than traditional blending or layering, and I was actually fairly happy with the results - for normal gaming, it would be more than adequate.

The layered shading above obviously took longer than that. It was a little faster than the same technique using Quickshades, but at the expense of a little less control due to the heavier pigment, but I think I need to experiment a little more to decide whether or not it's worth it.

Oily Joe’s looks great. I agree support posts might look a bit more realistic but the model is cleaner and more practical for gaming without them. I love that terrain sprue. So simple and fun for turning junk into cool terrain. I really like your extra touches of detail with the posters and graffiti.

New building - lifting the lid on removable roofs...

Oh- so you've been working under (the) cover!

Nice job, and playable.

Lovely city fight terrain.

Simple, but effective.

Cheers,

CB

Nice stuff, can you go back and do the Bot repair place with removable roof and full workshop inside? Would love to see that!

Trying my hand at something slightly different, because I've had these canvas boards floating around in the storage room for years and wanted to do something with them...



Very WIP, obviously...

Wow great idea, i have thought about trying to paint on a canvas ( to learn more about painting for 3d models ), but im not too sure its necessary, but im sure it would teach me alot about painting in general. But i cant draw at all. You are very good at drawing.

EDit - I have been watching alot of oil painting videos though, don't know why i just found it interesting. And this guy wyou probably already know called Bob Ross, i have been randomly watching his videos aswell, pretty interesting stuff if you are learning how to paint models aswell ( even though its a way way different method ).

Militus Dominator battlesuit conversion:






Build article here: https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/0/778593.page#10522295

So apparently I'm a visionary, or something. I built this back in 2007:

I like it even better than the preview one too , I do like the preview one’s hip holstered gun though.

New Militus suit, slowly building up to a 120-point force in the gold scheme:



And a tutorial on painting the gold armour is here.

Finished 120 point fire team: The Aurum Blade.

Cool to see a full team! Definitely helps to get a feel for this faction as an army on the table. I really need to continue building my own...

Yup, get on it!



Meanwhile, in the city...

Love the table pic

Nice man, love your terrain building and painting skills.

Wow, the battlefield looks really good with all the scratch build terrain all done in a consistent style. That will make for some epic games. Very nice work!

New building, with a bit of a sneak peek at a new terrain sprue coming up for release very soon...









More pics and a build walkthrough here.

I’m looking forward to the new terrain sprue. It looks like fun! I’m a huge fan of the current sprue.
