Well it's been more then a week and still no parts in sight.... Hope this is an anomaly with horde o' bits shipping or the US postal service... I was hoping I found a new source for bits, if they don't show up by this weekend I will switch my entry to the traitor guard vet squad I've been working on as a warm up...

Vik ill post a pic of the drum to your blog

Oh, excuse me my ignorance. I had to think about it, before asking...

By the way, playing jazz is super cool. I wish i could... But I just started to learn jazz harmony.

It's great to see everyone's entries are coming along nicely.
So here is my addition; some WIP pics of my entry. He's almost there.





C & C is appreciated.

lol no excuses needed, no ignorance either And yes its great fun, and i love what i do And jazz harmony is a great thing to learn and understand! Youll appreciate the music so much more! @ Vik, i like to headbang too Especially when my models fall off their putty base while im working on them. ARGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Ok enough thread jacking, today a finished pic of my tundra ice trooper. Promise.

Hello all, Just would like to bring to attention that due to lake of time to modle/paint on my part, I (hopefully with permission of unluckgaurdsman) Would like to enter one model instead of 2. If this is ok, the only model I will be painting/modeling will be my trygon. Please forget the ripperswarms Thanks!

Soooooo instamold came in! Wooohooo
The shoulder =I= shoulder is complete on the Librarian, and tonight I will finish up the base and ideally have him primed tonight.

Cant wait to see the Librarian! I have just finished the base coat of carapace blue on my trygon. Hopefully with any luck, I will be able to second coat him tonight!

hello everyone! Heres my final Pics for the tundra cadian im working on. Finished base, more textures and different mixes of snow pack and ice. A few more blue glazes to the face for cold and a kiss of light pinkish hue to the tip of the nose. (thanks rogue wolves) ! Thanks for all the C and C not sure im gonna add another entry but this was a fun one. Good luck to you all, so very talented, dakkaites

hope you like

the cloth and armor is looking super cool... no pun intended!^^ and the writing is just priceless... now with the weather-ing additions the clenched teeth are truly telling the story here^^

I have an update!
Okay, so maybe this is a bit later than intended, but here is my latest work on my bio-suit guardsman:

Let me know what you think!

Great job to all of you so far!

UG

do you have a referrence pic of your project? something where you draw your concept from? i am really having dificulties to what you are building to... would like to add helpfull comments to your work as i see you have quite some fragile framework done on the guy but i don´t understand what it is for...

I certainly do like! And I love the title! "Fething Cold" it is!

More progress is more progress! I like the suit more every time I see it. Is it just the angle, or are the new support beams asymetrical? The firearm seems to be getting the bad part of this deal, though. Do you have a plan there? I've got a scout shotgun in the bits box if you would be interested. Save you from trying to convert a lasgun...

Here's what's up with Petr:


Thanks to some truely great CC on the Firstborn PMblog, I think we're making some progress!

Any CC would be greatly appreciated!

Good luck everyone!
Rawson

very good All

see bebop i told you some detail as small as that makes it just that more realistic, btw i LOVE the scratched up white you did, it looks sweet

Bebopdrums... Very nice job on the armor and clothing. How do you get the blue inlays???

Progress, huzzah!

I've pinned the torso to the legs, hollowed out 2 plastic SoB helmets and then combined them to have a visor-up version, and started work on a spear for her. And here they are in two pictures that are too blurry to really make out!

OK my parts final got here in the mail and i couldn't be happier! So here are a few wip shots of the haemonculi mock up, i think its going to be a long night!






C and C always welcome and sorry for the picture quality, iphone and bad lighting are my worst enemies!

Thanks for all the feedback guys! Glad yo like it, ive gotten a bit of c and c regarding its simplicity in color scheme. To my defense, sometimes just needs to be simple:p

Renegade, the blues were the first layer, if you check the wip a few pages back, i started with ice blue, then slowly built up with wet blending very thin coats of mixed in space wolves grey etc etc etc all the way up to white. I think why the armor came out better than i expected was because it was such welcome relief to painting the blue fatigues which took a long time:( Anyways, thanks again for c and c everyone, and good luck fellas

at dangerhawk... once the bluetac is replces with GS this will be a cool mini!!! very dashing!^^

at unlucky... now that i saw your inspiration i am seeing where you are going...cool concept mister...if you need some hints for the shotgun i have seen some god conversions around here... probably what really help the gun is a bit of sanding...then the look would much be improved...the handle is looking very good by the way... what was it made from? just a rod of PC?


at zefig... wicked looking! and by the way... didn´t knew there were plastic kits of SoB out there...??? this would be interresting to me too...

dangerhawk wrote:Haemonculi

Looking really promising here.
Have been planning something similar but with the cloak from the HE-sorcerer on foot from the box with the mounded one.

Thanks! Immolators! Each one comes with one helmeted head and one helmetless.

Now I see! Will you be having a big diving helmet like the one in the picture? How are you going to build that?

Yeah, pictures weren't so helpful. I didn't know they had SoB plastic parts! Or is it non-GW?

Sweet idea! I love the DE closed helms; they are so creepy! Can we get a good front shot to see the HE body you used?

Rawson wrote:Yeah, pictures weren't so helpful. I didn't know they had SoB plastic parts! Or is it non-GW?

I'm gonna find myself a tripod, unsteady hands in macro mode aren't a great thing. I think you managed to sneak around my answer to Vik above, but...Immolators! One helmeted head in each box.

You're right, I missed it. I hate being "that guy"
