Still here, Finally got some painting done as well One day Ill get some piccys as well

Loving what the rest of you are coming up with Ive already settled my sights on second to last place as theres no way im going to match some of the stuff thats being thought up here

Yeah, I don't file/knife/clean up until I'm absolutely sure its done, so then I save myself work.

ah, ok... not my modus operandi but i see your point... me i have to clean up over and over again, because i am not really planning ahead but more of let the work flow... so i might later be not able to get at these parts again...

Ok, quick post with work in progress on first 5 models of my veterans squad. Going slower than anticipated - real life keeps getting in the way...!

cool looking!!! the camo is really nice!

Loving the guardsmen!
So in between work and typing up a DW/INQ adventure I made some more progress on the bio suit guardsman.

(Ignore the plasticard strip sticking out from the side, that has since been secured.) I took off the excess gap filler, and cut down the grip. The grip now has a nice 'rivet' on the end, just to give it some more texture. Today I hope to take some fine sandpaper and soften out the plastic as the gun nears completion. Really, all that is left to do is find a suitable left arm and then do final cleanup (and basing!).

So on a slightly related note, I dug out an old half-finished conversion last night and gave him some love.

I dug back through the gallery and found my original WIP picture, all the way back from July!

Hopefully, if I get my first model done, he will form the basis for my next entry. Captain Imperium!

So, let me know what you think!

UG

Thanks guys! Yeah, Captain Imperium has always been one of my favorite projects, I hope that now I'll have a legit reason to finish him!

Base coat for armour on my Scorpion is done. Pictures coming tonight

UG tell you what... use that padded helmet of the sentinels for the head of cap Imp...that would make him look like CAP America...from the recent movie...

Ok everyone, I just finished the second coat on all the armor. Hope you like!

C and C welcome!

Thanks, IR

Sorry for poor pic quality, (iphone)

Little bit more progress, but more importantly, I got myself a tripod! Woohoo. I'll let the pics do the talking.







Next is to get into some real putty work. Adding some more cloth, ribbons, etc, a kneepad, flames to the torch, and possibly the neck and hair. I'm not sure about those last ones there as I'm also considering leaving the head off to paint separately.

I've also got chains to add liberally. And I'll at least try mocking up some a few repentia as tenders. That might end up looking a bit too busy though.

my update is i got the dreadfleetship and had at it, it has been completed and i will post up some pics when i have a chance

As promised, WIP shots of my scorpion exarch, Still laying base coat when I have time. Hoping to start shading process this weekend. More detail visible in Gallery View.

Oh, snap! And I've started to paint the body of my Gunny already... Well, now I will have to wait untill finishing the entire conversion, it seems.

Let's just hope I don't get a cold, Vik.

well i for one have already a cold...it just goes with the season i guess^^

Yeah it is amazing how much a cold will drain from you.

yup... but this time i won´t let it stop me^^

That is the spirit! Keep up the painting! I just got a fine detail brush and am looking foward to painting some fine detail!

is that GW fine detailbrush any good? i recently bought me a !20/0 brush in an artshop and when i am done sculpting and i have primed my stuff i will most delicatly try that one out^^

Good plan.

The brush is sensational! It holds a point really well, and the paint comes off of the brush just as well! I definetly recemend the brush. (Buy from Miniature Market!)

They might not ship to germany though

There was another top result for "Dairy" with a girl pouring jugs of milk all over herself, which I think would also have been appropriate.

Truly Disterbing....
