here's what I am working on for Whalemusic360. This is one of my first attempts to use greenstuff and to modify a model.

I call it "Don't Text and Drive"

The very responsible marine has pulled over before fiddling with his cell phone doohikky. (what's that thing calles? i want to say aspex or somthing)



Glory is fleeting, but obscurity lasts forever.

Considering also your duty as a warrior you should not waver. Because there is nothing more auspicious for a warrior than a righteous war.

It's been a while - but I'm almost done!

Still need to highlight the metal (Mithril Silver edge highlights). Base will need grass - but I am leaving Gitsplitta's bare for him (that's right isn't it?). Should probably shade/highlight the decals... Small details you may not be able to see - blood under the Power Klaws and coming from the Space Marine's mouth corner. Added white lightning effects to the Power Klaws and Power Sword (very subtle). Bases shaded and highlighted. Space Marine eyes and teeth done. Think that's about it...

Yellow banner has room left for Gitsplitta to apply his own transfers/decals.

See my blog for the Twin Stormboy Nob and the "issue" with the above picture...

Great progress on all the stuff guys, nice to see this thread has been kept alive. Arakasi such an awesome model, great to see it painted, Graven beautiful work my friend as always, Gits is right the Iron Lion is astonishingly good, not such a fan of the full banner for bikers but other than that is also a great model. And to everyone else fantastic job. Hopefully I will be back into the hobby shortly and be able to contribute a bit more.

Woah that orc is amazing!

I'll have some robed marines and tac marines to do conversions (with GK bits) in a few days to do a trade if anyone is interested in an OSL glowstick-wielding model

I still need virtually every GK character, slightly admeched up.

Whale and Ice, your models have been put on hold for tomorrow, because...

I'm going to be playing a game will all the GMS marines I've gotten!!!!
My friend and I are going to his house where his dad has a large table set up for a train set, with mountains, houses, etc and using my Orks and SM.
Part of the SM I will be using will be all the GMS marines I have received.
I will linky to a bat rep, (which will most likely be lots of pics, as neither of us have played before...) when we are done

Then, painting will begin for you two.

Couple of updates...

First, a marine made by Disjointed Entity for me as part of our swap:


Next, and Mantis Warrior vanguard marine made for me by inmygravenimage. I finally got around to doing the writing on the purity seals and getting him properly based:


Have some of my own work to show soon... needs just a bit more work.



Automatically Appended Next Post:

My GMS project for vent... now complete save for the mon on his right shoulder pad (which isn't visible here so I posted the pic). I'll do a full picture spread on my MW web site when he's complete.

Surfing the Tervigon Wave...on a baby.

Just a quick update - started on the bolter casing and the yellow robes for Njal's trade. I'm making progress, as gradual as it is! No photos as I've been rather lazy last night.

Graven - I shall get yours undercoated tonight before I start my Dark Elf long haul!

Late shifts suck as they mean I have less light to work with by the time I get home.
