That last battle-wagon is one great model, and I love your metal on it!

So 18 sub assemblies.

WHOA

Result is grand tho. Enjoy the holiday!

After a much needed holiday the second war wagon.

Went with a bronze metal work to differentiate from the first but techniques otherwise exactly the same.





More Warmahordes cominig in the next few weeks as I aproach the big Oceania team Tournament next weekend.
Then it will be a variety of other games systems to give myself a break.

So after finishing at the Oceania Team Championships and a couple of weeks off from painting some more models are ready for uploading.
The next few uploads will all be Hordes.
2 and a half hours from undercoated to varnish. Wonderful model to paint. Eilish Garrity The Occultist by Privateer Press.

Next up the current pride and joy of my Trollbloods, and I think of all my Warmahordes... The Sea King

PLEASE CLICK ON THE PICS BELOW FOR LARGE, CLEAR, NON-COMPRESSED PICS IN THE GALLERY

I will never, ever paint another one of these.

Skin was airbrushed in an hour and a half, and very happy with it at the time, then around another 38 and a half hours to finish the model.

Phenomenal amount of detail that requires careful painting to avoid buggering the skin.
Then when I finished I realised all the other colours have subdued the skin effect I had. Need really good light now to see the contrasts.

Lesson learnt, go max contrast on skin airbrushing.

The boat is pinned in place after being painted separately.
The mast is magnetised at the base of the mast and on the connection between chain and sail to help transport.
The model is on a 120mm diameter base.

That is one bonkers model. Nice work!

Congrats on finishing your Sea King, he's a real tour de force

Lad seems pretty competent in-game too!

He is excellent with some casters and pretty Meh with other, exactly how a model should be, have a place but not be super OP.
The thing that stands him out is the extra 2 inches on his anchor and it being chain weapon, the extended threat range is super needed for trolls.

Next up my first Long Rider 'Tuffalo' unit.
As always better pics when you click on them to take you to the gallery.

21 days since last entry, damn time ran away from me.

Rok, Character Dire Troll.

Used the how to paint ice tutorial from games workshop (easily found on youtube). Worked a treat.
Airbrushed skin and rest hand painted.

As per the usual, full sized pics available by clicking on the pictures.

Bee a bit side tracked on Necromunda terrain, with a sudden surge in the game by a mass of local gamers.
Really great narrative fun. Definitely not set up for competitive play.


Next up, the warlock - Jarl Skuld.

Great fun to play in Northkin theme force. Rubbish in every other one I have tried.







As usual, click on the pcis for link to higher resolution pics.

Thanks

That ice troll is really cool. Also very well painted.

Great work!, looks really well done.

Any more 54mm Inquisitor in the pipeline? Really love the stuff on pg1 and it really shows off your painting skills

Just assembled a broodlord to use as a genestealer (the one on the pipe) and assembling some other models. It is just a matter of what I am doing at the time, necromunda is upcoming and terrain (hopefully) and heaps of grymkin (assembled 11 cask imps and 2 mad caps and 6 clockatrice this weekend). However there will be some 54mm scale stuff soon. Check back in a few weeks as I haven't started painting them yet.

Today:
Northkin elder:

Wow awesome work!

Last entry for the trollkin for likely a few months as other projects that I have been assembling take over.

Minimum unit of long riders. Haven't painted the other 2 as haven't been needed yet.

Amazing, great job! also those base's look fantastic aswell.

Time to move away from Warmahordes and into some Necromunda.

Since its re-release I have been buying everything that GW have released but have only been playing in the last month due to the horrendous release schedule meaning pretty much zero interest by local gamers.
Suddenly though now with a consolidated rule book there is a sudden burst of interest and games being played fortnightly here and a campaign day in Brisbane.


The orlocks were the first gang I assembled and so are the first I painted.
Now campaigns are underway a second box will be needed to expand the force beyond 10 members in a campaign.

The 1 Percenters
Due to the biker feel to the models the gangers' names are based on Harley Davidson bikes or engines.

I went with exactly the same paint scheme in the GW painting video on youtube except the base which is the same for all my necromunda models
Last weekend at the campaign day with 16 gangs, I won artificer award for best painted gang.

As always, click on the pic for full sized, more clear pics.






For extra fun times, and to save money and add to customisation, all models are magnetised.

The rest of my orlock gang, and then a group shot with the extra weapons I have done so far.

Good looking crew, impressively thorough magnet / extra arm work. If there's a downside to these boys it's that they match their basing a touch to much for me, but as you said the basing is set for all the gangs, so maybe Team Black & Blue is going for homefield advantage by matching the decking?

Cool Trolls. One of the Warmahordes armies I haven't played much with.

Orlocks are really great. I haven't messed with mine yet as they look time consuming with all the different fabrics, guns, armor etc. Been painting Delaques and Goliaths myself.

Great stuff in here, keep it up!

Now onto some terrain. I have been painting the next few sets for the last 12 months, and still have a few to go but am just about done, so here you go.

These are Deadbolt's Derelict Set. Link to what I bought.

http://deathraydesigns.com/product/deadbolts-derelict-corridors-bundle/

They also make other accessory kits for the sets.


Here are the corner parts (much better pics when clicked on):

That Orlock gang is just awesome!!

I like the look of the terrain, but can't see how it's used. Do you have a pic of it from a game or the like laid out?

Edit: Ah! Pic from your link above (huge, so spoilered!). Looks quite cool

I had half of the orlock gang in the cabinet in my FLGS set up to promote Necromunda, next to the everchosen entries... and it won the open category.

Congrats on the accidental glory

Now for the 2 block pieces for the zone mortalis terrain.

Last lot of the zone Mortalis Necromunda terrain

Next entry, back to models.








Automatically Appended Next Post:
Currently:
Painting more Necromunda terrain
Assembling Goliaths, will magnetise when all assembled.
Finishing green stuffing a 54mm Rogue Trader for Inquisitor
Painting a pile of Grymkin

And last weekend moved all my gaming gear from the room it was in to my old, larger gaming room. Still cleaning the odds and ends.

A good mix of stuff happening.

Next up Necromunda Hired Gun... Eyros Slagmyst.

Dude finds high tech suit of armour, cannot get it off.
Suit is designed to suck the water out of others, and then give it to wearer.
Awesome.

The armour just screams out Tau tech, so I painted it up like the original Tau Fire Warrior scheme from the early 2000s.

Very cool. I love the various water flasks. Really sells the character.

Back to 54mm inquisitor scale.

Used one of the 40k broodlords with the skulls filed off from the base and his left hand to remove scale issues.

Went with a classic genestealer paint scheme.
The gloss effect is intentional, although it is a satin varnish, I wanted a mildly wet/slimy look.

As usual, click on the pics for better shots.

















Thanks
