First of all I'd just like to say...wow! I'm currently reading this blog from page 1 (currently on page 39). Your work is truely amazing, and it's great to see how far you've come. You keep me motivated to keep at my own army and blog (despite the lack of interest from the community

) I'd like to hope that one day I too will inspire people like you have. Continue the great work and you will see me popping up as a regular from now on

Keep it up

**Knightley**

Oh wow, I didn't realise this blog had gotten that big now, I'm honored you're taking the time to go through it all. What would be your favorite model thus far?

Update: Another good day painting

I think its a toss up between your Terminator Techmarine or the Dread Knight as I despise the baby-carrier but you made good

any advice on how to keep motivated even tho no-one is really saying alot on my blog despit my request for feedback ideas etc

and I hope you don't mind if I use that lava styled energy blade (that you did on the Mentor Space Marine) on my Chaos blades? Lava and it's glow is one of my strong points

Do you think you'll be doing anything from Forge World any time soon? Keep up the great work

**Knightley**

Ah yes, the rather interesting conversions

I'd be honored if you were to use the lava energy blade, it was a fluke but fill your boots!

Motivation is tough, but I created this blog to track my painting, if I get no posts it doesn't stop me from posting my next picture. If I created it to get responses I would be posting in a very different way.

Update: Models done!

Excellent looking termies Knightley. They'll be great additions to your army!

**Matt.Kingsley**

Yes, very nice!

Spoiler:

**lipsdapips**

Fantastic! I still cant get over how neat those force weapons look
oh and I trust you fixed the mini that was was broken on sunday?

**Casey's Law**

Very nice! Any chance we could see an army list of everything you have ready? Think you'll ever get the oppurtunity to field it all?

**Knightley**

@Gits - Yep, and to think I have another 15 to paint up

@M.K - Yay!

@LDP - Yeah fixed him up when I got home was only an arm which had decided to detach after some *rough* handling, they don't make models like they used to.

@C L - Hmm an up today army list of completed models, will see what I can do over the next day or so for you.

Update: Group shots of the terminators

**Gitsplitta**

Wonderful to see them all together like that!

**Matt.Kingsley**

Splendid!

They look great in a group!

**Young_Logan**

Looking great, wonderful to see the old (and in my opinion the best) psycannon

as always clean and crisp

Young Logan

**inmygravenimage**

Group shots are excellent, nice depth of field... And now the army shot?

**Nashbashem**

Loving the Terminators Knightly

Great work as usual. I'd love to see you have a crack at a Forge World Titan

Keep up the great work

**Knightley**

@Gits - Thank you!

@M.K - Cheers

@Young_Logan - agreed, the older psycannons look like cannons eh

@Graven - Hahah, I need to find a way to get proper lighting to showcase everything that's been painted....

@Nash - You wouldn't be the first to suggest a titan, the only thing stopping me is cost, oh and time, I did a quick stock take of stuff left to paint vs stuff painted, I probably have another year of painting if I can get a squad done a week (which is only lasting while I'm on holidays)

Update: Some PAGK's for your perusal. All WIP 2's btw

PAGK 1

PAGK 2

PAGK 3

PAGK 4

PAGK 5

**Matt.Kingsley**

I always liked the old metal ones, they look more imposing.

Spoiler:

**inmygravenimage**

Nice to see WIP 2 - it's good to see the starting point (iirc you tend to start with WIP3?)

**Nashbashem**

Always nice to see the metal GK get some paints. Never thought they were bad models I just never thought they were great. Good to see that no matter the material or cast you can make it awesome

continue the good work!

**Knightley**

@M.K - Ah I didn't see that will check it out

@Graven - WIP 1 is usually plastics blu-tac'd together WIP 2 is usually base coat with wash, WIP 3 is first stage grey, WIP 4 is second stage grey etc.

@Nash - Thanks, I was always a huge fan of the Metal GK terminators, the helms just rock although I feel the back of the models lacks any real detailing.

Update: First stage grey done

**Matt.Kingsley**

Very nice!
Can't wait to see them done!

**Nashbashem**

Very nice! A joy to look at just like your other work! I'd love to see your take on a Chaos Space Marine army

(*gasp* Heresy!) Keep it up

**Knightley**

@M.K - shouldn't be much longer

@Nash - I was considering doing a nurgle/admech army with zombies being servitors and Typhus being a Terminator war-priest thingy, I have a lot to paint etc before I get to there though.

Update: Grey is all solid now

**Briancj**

Oddly, that AdMech counts as Nurgle thing is EXACTLY what I'm taking to Adepticon.

**Nashbashem**

Looking great Knightly

Quick question: As I am someone with ok-ish understanding of PCs how do I make the link in mysignature clickable like yours and everyone elses. The instructions aren't very clear, either that or I'm mentally incapable of understanding them

**Matt.Kingsley**

Very nice Knightley!

Also, I think I'm done!

**Knightley**

@Briancj - Nice, there was a few hurdles that I had to consider like the cost of the new finecast servitors for one thing, how are you going to approach that?

@Nash - Question answered hopefully the clickable link is like this - [url =Link to page]Name of the link[/url] you need to take out the space between url and =link to your page
So mine looks like
[url =http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/349329.page]Grey Knight Painting log[/url] and once the space is taken out it becomes
Grey Knight Painting log
Hope that helps

@M.K - Yuss! waaay ahead of time!

Update: grey highlights done
