This is my Tetto'Eko Conversion =)

Pretty proud of this guy.

@Carnage43: Me too. I had a hand in its creation...

I like this thread! Keep em coming, don't forget to go explore peoples galleries when you see things you like and leave them comments and ratings!

Good stuff!

These are about the cream of my gallery (& more or less the sum total!) Lately I´ve dipped under the radar for a spell but hope to be back on the case with a new project soon.

Some really interesting stuff on here, it always good to see others work getting the attention it deserves.

Here are a few of my Favourites from my gallery:

Second attempt at airbrushing and what I think is the nicest red I have gotten yet :



The model I feel best shows my 2010 progress as I completed it very quickly but loved the result :



And the most impressive model in my gallery :

... i cannot tell is that sculpted by you or has it got 1000 odd layers of paint? Ether way looks like he's got breasts

He was painted by a friend of mine when he was 6, I think thats like 10 layers of gold enamel. The cat face on the knee and eyepatch/hair lines are the selling points for me.

As mentioned by some, he's not really hiding, but it's the one I like most at the moment...

The first trooper of my Tzeentch Raptors squad, riding a Disc of Tzeentch!

This thread is one of the best ideas I have seen in a while. Really promotes the idea of "community". Great job Augustus!

Here's a couple of mine that I am distinctly proud of:







And also going from this:



To this:




...in less than 3 months.

(None of these are in the gallery, but I will get around to it one day)
My Warboss in a Dreadnaught



My Witch Hunter Inquisitor

Black background images? That's very unique! How were those done for people who took them, love the airbrush and the fantastic montage shots too by the way well done!

Lovin the ork warboss and nurglenaughts! Will vote and comment in a sec

Black backgrounds are great in that the don't leave you with the " Wait, this is not how it looks in real life" syndrome that white can cause. My digi cam washes colours or alters them significantly with a white backdrop, and I don't like having to tweak images to make them look like the real deal. Black avoids this for me completely.

The background is a piece of black Velvet. Velvet is great as it does not reflect light whatsoever, so you can have a really nice lamp setup for your light source without ruining the deep blackness of the velvet.

Even black models can be shot on it as they don't absorb the light the way the velvet does, so are rarely muted by it /ends thread hyjack

Wow some insanely cool stuff in this thread so far!

Here are a few of mine:

I'm more a converter than a painter, but here are some of the models I'm proud of:

Some really great stuff in this thread.
Heres my Gargant with his deffkopta buddies:

Although these pictures were not taken by me, they feature my CSM vs endtransmission's IG from Dakka's Silver Sourcerer tournament last year and are way better than my own pictures of my models

Some fantastic work in this thread

Probably still my best work is my Big Mek (shown here with both weapon options.



And my Mega-Nobz made from old Terminators.

Smurfs.

i estimate £900-£1000 ...+£399 on for the thunder-hawk (assuming it isn't the limited edition metal one at £750) ... wish i had the money to go mad like this

Kreeeeeg!

Wow more good stuff today, thanks everyone, I have enjoyed seeing things people have shared, I have never seen any of this before! Great stuff! I have liked revisiting this thread this week!



EVER since the chaos possesed marine kit came out I have wanted to see someon do a raptor unit with the demonic wings! That is just fantastic! I really like it and I figured it was doable but I have never seen even one completed example since the kit came out (well of a whole squad) awesome!

That Ultramarine army is huge, holy cow.

Evolvingeye, I like those angry thermal terminators, the lava effect is imposing, not very standard a paint job, in a great way.

EDIT: Heres an old custom captain of mine, a very simple equiped model with a bit of flash:

My favorites:

This is my truescale marine

WOW...some AMAZING stuff from everyone! Here are a couple of mine, taken with a bad camera...fixing that now.







*Now, I know that this last one is not a GW mini, but it was a cool mini*

@ Gitsplitta,

those are Bazonkers! and display not only a fine ability to paint but a great taste for composition and photography skills as well! Excellent, I like the 4 barrel dread best, but wow!

@ Matrim,

I always wondered why power armored men didnt ALL have integrated weapons? Shouldn't they, really? That piece captures that, well thematically for me anyway, I'd like to see a more completed image of it?

No completed Images Augusts, sorry - it is still a WIP

nice name, Augustus...or should i say....OCTAVIAN?!
