Viktor? ...do you have any Ogres yet for your army?

well have you looked into my ogryn thread yet? i tried to make a scotish ogryn form GS and some ogre kingdom bitz...

there you can find some pics of my work on him...someone actually had the nerve to call him fat bastard...^^

but i recently got a hold of this mini here:



which i think could be also a great ogryn stand in...


why do you ask?

Oh no...reason...

No reason at all....

darn ... height and overall style is so cool...


where from? looks like a diving suit or a big guy from bioshock...cool thing...and oh so steamy... *wipes away sweat*

Damnit, I really need to learn to attach links when I post stuff. Apologies:

http://www.recreationalconflict.com/complete.html

i think i have to try that on my own... after seeing how Ailaros did his GS work of wonders it is doable to recreate this diver suit...

but that site definite will keep me away from once owning my own house....lol you can get easy poor on that...

And yes I agree on your assesment... It does look like a Big Daddy....all we need now are some Drill Arms.

easy peasy...seen them somewhere... chpaterhouse or ramshakle games? but we needs shotty bitz rather than drilly ones^^

also it looks a bit as if it wears some swimming shorts^^

LMAO it does! We should totally paint one with little hearts on it or something...

lol... yeppers! pink clouds^^ and then there is the famous hamster round form armorcast (?) to be shooting from those barrels^^

Oh man, another cool site ripe for some looting. Thanks J3r30n.

Now I just need to save some more teef.

*borrows monkey some tongs...*

I keep being amazed at the sheer amount of miniature companies out there and that I still keep finding new ones almost literally like every day.

Take this guy for instance, he would work really well as an Ogre in my Helghast themed army as a form of human experiment, they are a tad expensive though, but beyond that look really well and would look awesome along my Imperial Naziesque Guard.

what you could try for a naziesque army as ogryn could be werwolfs... there is a company that features minis that represent a thrid reich version that has heavy armored troops and mutants and stuff... and some werwolfs too...they could fit that bill...your mini kind of reminds me of these... sadly i forgott the company...

True enough on that but I like this hyped up, mutated, stuck with syringes look....also they kind of remind me of the braindead monsters from the Beast Master.

if you are into that kind of style... i still have an unused mint looking mini of this here lying around...:


he is 54 mm high so would defintaly be the right scale...

Hmmm, what happened with the steam-punk tank? has it gone to the painter shop yet? I was looking forwards to the painted glory of Her Majesty's most powerful tank!

the thing that keeps me from painting it is the sealing of the foam treads... i cant get out of the comfy chair for that... and of course now the work with the devils too...

A simple PVA overcoat,,,slightly watered down of course. Once that preotective coat is on, then the primer can be sprayed and then the hand painted camo.

See? I make it look so simple eh?

well there was this whole discussion about miliputmilk...you remember back some weeks before... i thought this was the was to go...pva is much simpler...hmmm... maybe i can salvage some time tomorrow...but cant make any promises...

Well, my suggestion of PVA-milk was due to the likely-hood of you having the glue over the milliput, My guess is make sure the stuff get';s in the holes and craters to make sure the protection takes, then the primer should just hit the milk-skin and nothing else. Now for the Cardboard, that should also have a coating carefully applied to avoid moistening a tad as it were. Once the treads are dry, spray some 'matte varnish or 'ardcoat on the tank (Light coats) and then once that dries and hardens, the primer should be safe.

seems not that simple anymore...but i totally see your point....

Well, I guess we shall have to wait until after you get back from Holiday to see that work finished on the tank.

yep, thats for definite...also i am totally tangled in the scots atm...change of project was due... will come back with fresh energy form holidays and then the tank gets his well deserved finishing work...

And then the Highlanders will be getting more devotion once the tank is complete. Nice

hmmmm... can´t quite promise that order really... more like if i paint, i paint regardless of tank or mini... i think i switch inbetween from subject to subject...

Just do not forget to "safety seal" the tank before painting. I did that for the MDF-board Drop-pods I have.

warped card would kill me...

Or you could base by hand. I know it would take a while, but then you don't have to worry about warping or melting stuff. Just use a house-painting brush!

do you mean basecoating or priming?
