So I recently went over my threads and thought 'Wow ! I have like a hundred blogs !(not really a hundred , but you get the picture..)' So , instead of waking up old ones , and continueing the ones that are slowly being buried due to slow process , I thought 'I'll just make a new thread with all my stuff on it . That way it will never be buried to far for my liking !'

So on here I'll be doing EVERYTHING I'm working on . Terrain , Commisions , Stuff I'm doing for friends , Finishing/repainting my old stuff , helping someone out and if I ever get the chance to I'll even do Battle Reports and Fluff for the armies/squads I'm making !

So , until the next update here are some links to the blogs I've been doing so you get the basic idea for what the blog will consist off(since I only recently started doing commisions there will be pictures in the next update on that ..) .

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/266203.page (Terrain)
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/253068.page (repainting)
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/250371.page (Venerable dread , kind of old but it ended up in my 'unfinished' box . Once you go there nothing returns ..)
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/248374.page (AoBR , actually its now a commission , but he saw my colour shcemes and liked them so it will be almost like continuing the blog )

So , Next time I'll put up pictures of some Terrain im finihsing up , a little commission work , and hopefully be started on the venerable dread

See you then !

Ok . So its time for the first update .

First off , theres a small commission im doing . I was gonna do it as a gift , since I dont concider my painting skill so great , but my friend that asked me to do it insisted that I took a small fee for it .

Hes not done , not at all . But here are some WIP pictures of were it stands right now . For now I have to rehighlight some high spots , redo the failed blending on the inside of the cape and finish the gold , find and paint some cool SM patterns on the cape , . Oh , and ofcourse paint all the unfinished areas !

Here are the pictures . Please note they are a little brighter than they are in real life .





Next up is something for my own Salamanders . I have one rule when it comes to making an army . First I think "what would I like to paint?" then after I'm done painting I think "were could this fit in an army list?" . This is a techmarine i got for christmas . So , here you go :

EDIT : Im having some trouble with my Internet . Lots of laginess , and some sites are just inacessable . Pictures of the tech marine , terrain and the rest that I have painted will be up as soon as I get that fixed !

Finallly got the internet working !

Here is the Tech Marine :






Automatically Appended Next Post:
Update !

Well , I got some more work on the Honour guard ! Im thinking the freehand should either be painted over or done the wole round on the cape . Your oponions ? Also got some terrain here . For some reasin the primer did'nt cover it although I made sure it did Its still WIP !

Pictures :








Terrain :

that dude from the honour guard, what's his chapter??

rockabill-gr wrote:that dude from the honour guard, what's his chapter??

Hes an ultramarine , however the green shoulder pad represents that he is currently serving a Salamander army .

aaahh ok.

Ok . Honour Guard almost done . Still have to paint over a couple of spots were the another colour that was'nt supposed go went there(note to self :"never have an painting session while baby sitting" ) . I know he tilts a little on the base , but hes pinned , so that makes less likes og him falling off due to gravity/glue problems
C&C more than welcome . Pictures :

except the base it seems ok.
good job man.

Small update !

While I'm still working on the Nob , I decided to make something that would be fun for me to paint So I kitbashed together an Assault Marine Commander

Its still only primed , but I'm quite happy with this



Also !! To everyone that complaining about their weather ! Shut up Here is a picture of the weather as it is right now :

Pictures ..


Kitbash :




Nob :

Update !!

This time I have more pictures of the kitbash , about done . Still have a couple of things to tidy/finish up . I just entered a small(note:very small) diorama piece to a local painting competition , which explains why I havent updated for so long .

Here are the pictures :





C&C welcome !

the wash makes it looking really good.
is it thraka green?

rockabill-gr wrote:the wash makes it looking really good.

Yep . Its Goblin green washed about 3 times(first in a thick layer spread over the whole model , let dry , then another two thin washes.) and then highlighted .

On to the next update !

This time I have some WIP terrain , a finished nob , and a very , very WIP warboss . Also Im about 99% done with the jumppack marine , all I have left is the black and silver on the jump pack .

Pictures (kinda dark , becouse well , its dark..)







C&C welcome !

Also , I'm writing a script for my class , due to this wednesday i think . So not to many updates coming , but I'll make it up to you guys after the script's been made .

Okay , time to update !

First off , a WIP tactical squad . Its basicly leftovers I scraped together to make a tactical squad . Note that they will all be painted to my highest standard , so it'll take time . Also note that none of the marines in the picture have been painted yet , they are all gonna be repainted .



Then theres the warboss for the Warboss&Nobz commission I'm doing . Im still working on his base . Still WIP !






C&C welcome .

Until the next update

the skin is a bit too dark for my tastes but still your work on it is magnificent.
the mettalic areas could use a wash of babab black to look more old.

great paintjob nontheless.

rockabill-gr wrote:the mettalic areas could use a wash of babab black to look more old.

I know that Like I said , its WIP and I took the picture right after I did the mettalic on his boot and guns . I'll stripple some rust and battle damage and then then wash + highlight

nice work man.
keep it going

Small uptade.

Because I should be resting for 12-ish hour hiking in the morning(in 3 hours to be precise , so that would be 5o'clock in the night here) I took no pictures. But im done with the warboss. All I have left is gluing it to the base
. Also coming a good on the way on the next Nob, and kitbash is done. Tactical squad is ready by 1 member finished and one that is ca. 70% done.

Pictures if I dont Melt in eruption tomorrow!

Really (about the metals)? I dig the way they look, especially the PK. Agree about the skin though, I'm curious as to what the finished product looks like!

Keep up the good work! I wish I could free hand 1/10th as good as you.

This may be my smallest update to the day !

Mini uptade .
Finished the next Nob ! The only thing left on the warboss are the boots and then he´s ready to go onto a base .

These are some solid paintjobs gretar. Really nice work on them.

as for the orks, they look nice and grim, the power klaw on the warboss could use some detail work to make it jump out at you more than it does at the moment, but that´s really the only point of criticism I can make at the moment.

Thanks .

Yeah the PK was kinda rushed . Just a drybrush og boltgun and tin bitz , wash of Badab Black and then a Mithril Slver highlight .

I'll probably go over it and do something like old , scratched checkers or something

Thanks again for the comment .

When it comes to Ork weapons and metals, I use a wash of devlan mud. And on brass areas, a little verdigris looks awesome.
