Very nice

My tips would be,
Wash your metals in badab black or devlum mud or asuryman blue to give them some depth
Your eye colour is a little too bright and is contrasting badly with the helms. You want a darker green (but not too dark or you'll be lost in the helmet)
If you feel confident look up a few guides about how to paint the lenses on space marine helmets. Tho its detailed work your get good with practice. (You basically start very dark at the back of the lense work up to a lighter colour near the front them put a white dot on the dark part)

other than that, keep up the good work, looking swish!

I have been using badab black on the metals, lenses have never been my strong point.

something like catachan green?

very good detailwork on the aphothecarian shoulderpad.looks very crisp the white and the red. but i do wonder why you used the mecharius arm for the apothecarius... does he have to work with some more heavy clad SM?^^
by the way, how did you prime the models? black or white? if the former...good work getting the colors so bright!

Im using army painter Greenskin when its in stock.

(huggs) Thanks Viktor, I stripped a Libby terminator this afternoon.

My Sons are gong down the semi organic rouite, Im thinking of stripping my Iron Hands and using them for some more of my Sons.

and kill off all that beutiful lightnings???? please don´t... are you in need for SM models?

Liking the green, very crisp!

you can pm me a list and i see what i have...will answer the list thn somewhere over 12:00 tomorrow? sounds good?^^

Oh, and as per above - you need torso bits?

Just legs as i have a tone of bodies.

Ok here is a question since my mk 5's have not been shipped, should I just order some skull helms from Chapterhouse, or just order more mk 5's?

i´d order them skullheads anyway...they look tremendously cool and are shown on the picture as a treat to have...!

The skullheads would look nice in a Night Lords army.

Just ordered 10 from chapterhouse.

The Mk 5 have been shipped. Yay.....

That's good news looking forward to seeing them painted up.

That figures, the MK5's ship the day AFTER you order the skull helms...

Yeah, tho I have a paypal confermation on the payment on the heads still pending on chapterhouse ... Where's the cattle prod?

Grrr freaking post office!!!!!

I hate the royal mail, I sent a dvd back to the us on the 4th of feb this year, this is the 4th time I had to fill out a clams form, and to add insult to injury they called me sir....

*makes sour face* as cliche goes postmans every where are in a secret order of nutjobs... all waiting for that doomsday where they draw their uzis and fire at anything thats moving...we should get them early...and after that do all our businesses by doves...^^
i even have my bankacount by our post office...so i am doubly fooled...

we had a repairman today for our heatingsystem...yesterday he called for an apointment and my wife took the phonecall...the guy asked her if her mum was there... her voice sounded for him so young...she wasn´t flattered at all...

Hahahahahahaha............ That made me laugh so hard i almost pee'd. Most women crave to be thought of as younger than they are. She will have to start smoking 40 a day ti get an older husky sounding voice lol.

you should have checked to see if the repairman had any cool bits of stuff you could borrow for some of your projects

well my wife is a bit uneasy with her voice... she thinks it is too weak...but as long as i know women they are unsatisfied with one or two features of theirs...well one is her voice for her...sadly a good reality check is out of the question... as we are talking women here^^ if they tend to serve the clichè then we can too^^

and i have to say, i thought the same too...there was this cool bit of the cpu of the electronics of the "thing" and i thought ... now this could be nice... but was too hesitant to ask...
oh and forgot...if one of us would start smoking i guess it would be not good for the relationship...my wife would always tell me i stick...and me i don´t like the idea of a smoking wife at all... my mother smoked like a chimney...awful...

Resin has arrived as well as Loth just need one pad to get him sorted, the libby pad. I said Libby pad not Lilly pad. also he will have the skull and cog for my Sons of Medusa.

will you make some pics anytime soon? when you get the chaperhouse stuff it would be nice to see a pic of unworked with stuff... to see in which state they come...moldines and bubbles and all...sort of one never knows when i make a purchase in that direction...

Will do sweet (Sorry to Vik's wife I call all my friends sweet) Nick is on vacation so hill get the heads in 2 weeks. Jammie git is in Florida possibly drinking Maheto's

^^... so far she´s not interessted in minigames^^ by the way... the bolter is now on it´s way to ye fer good! so hopefully after the weekend it is yours^^

I'm still waiting for the invading hordes of picts...

I saw a box of 1/72 Italieri Barbarians in TKMaxx the other day for £1 and thought of you Missy.

I only get resin in batches.

Actually I kind of like the idea of a lily pad. He could be just kicking back, having a laze on a giant lily pad, idly spitting acid at the flies as they buzz around.
