Well, you're right. It's just a natural lichen so it is a consistent color throughout. I have an idea how to dress it up a bit that is consistent with the rest of the base though.

Wow that is a really sharp looking display, Gits
The event looks like it was a lot of fun!
Knight looks solid, too. The thicker barrel was the way to go. Do agree with Moltar on hitting the bushes with a little shade. Just for that extra depth because the bushes are so large.

Looks like you are settling down and enjoying the game much more.
That looks like a near perfect day, (3-0 would have obviously been better) but looks like 3 great games, plenty of action.
Grats on the painting win, Nerdy strikes again.

I need to go back to sorting out ways to project power across the battlefield. Good Lord gun-lines are boring to run. I don't know how Tau players could stand them for all those years.
Oh, did a really quick re-paint of a Vindicare that I picked up used. For some reason they'd painted his jump suit bright red. I just threw him together for the tournament. I'll touch up some of his details and finish the basing before I set him aside.

I think red eyes would really set it off nicely (and go with your beautiful AD Mech). That model always makes me laugh, I used to call mine 'The Compensator'.

Yes, happy birthday to us all! I even took Thrs and Fri off so I could spend time with my kids and make sure my slightly broken wife stays off her feet!
Worked on some orks tonight. First unit of Red Skull Kommandos is nearly done and began the creation of the jump packs for my storm boys.

Thank you everyone!
Finished up my Red Skull Kommandoz... first unit anyway. They aren't fancy... but they'll do the job. At least to me the pic looks blurry, but if you zoom in on it it's fine.

No, no presents. But my eldest cleaned the boat for me (which was amazing) and my wife took us all out for a fancy dinner.
I'm working on the second unit of Red Skull Kommandoz if that counts.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes, I had a great day!
Well, I'm inordinately proud of these for a bunch of badly painted miniatures. Guess I just like to find new purposes for old plastic. Red Skull Kommandoz are done. First step in the reconstitution of the old ork army (well, second step of you count the Morkanaut that Cam made for me). Sorry for the quality of the pic, new box and I don't have any photo software on it yet.

It's nice to be working on my orks again. I have some bigger projects that I'd like to do eventually but the first priority for me is getting the two units of Red Skulls and one or two units of Storm Boyz (30 figs total) ready to go. After that, I can start working on some more exciting projects.
I'm actually a few boys short for the next project, so I'll be building/ painting 4-5 slugga-boyz and continuing to work on their rokkits. The rokkits will be very simple... sections of tube with GS nose-cones (already done). Will be adding fins next, then finally inserting a long pin at an angle into the rokkit, the other end of which will be inserted into the back of the slugga boy to make them convertible (either sluggas or storms).

It definitely paid off. I especially like the one with the goggle-mask with the big eye sockets. Very characterful.
