Helluva a Dakka-Wagon ya got there!

As well you should! Besides... your conversion is fantastic.

What's that crazy Ork Razorback going to count as? Or is it just for looks? Either way it's awesome in its own Orky way!

Thanks guys! I just made it because I was feeling Orky. I'll probably put it up on eBay, have it as a display piece, or start an Ork Mad Max army in the far future.

Well that was fast. Done, will officially enter it in the Painting Challenge thread soon.

My work today. Cadre Fireblade and Piranha. Neither is done.

Really like the light grey square bits on the skimmer. Nice touch.

Thanks Gits, I put them on all my vehicles. I still have seven vehicles of various sorts to do, so there will definitely be more in the future.

And, I have 40 Fire Warriors to de-moldline. I did about half of them, and then worked on this Broadside. Eventually, I might even get those Fire Warriors painted.

Very nice work on the original Broadside suit there!

Thanks man, I appreciate it. Here's more photos.

Well, at least I have my work cut out for me.

That's a good start for a tau mechanized brigade.

This is my take on a tank destroyer. All rivets made of the purest tyranid tongue. Thank goodness for the bits box.

Orky TD is looking good!

Tau mechanized looking to be a nice tank paint project!

There you are, I knew riveting would summon you! How do you do the rivets on your tanks? I'm sure my method isn't efficient.

Oh, I'm looking at those tanks in dread already.

Two looted wagons.



And for my next trick, I need a Rhino, a Doomsday Cannon, plasticard, sprue, tyranid tongues, and glyphs...

Looking good . I love the looted vehicles. I especially like that rivets are made from tyranid tongue...

I basically do rivets the way a cake maker does cakes, I have a squeeze bottle with small tip adapted and make a dot on the nozzle, and apply it to the model.

The rivets there look fine, different thickness and diameter are what one expects from Ork meks

They make me smile....

Thanks guys, I love making them. The next one will be Ultramarine colored, as I'm getting a bit sick of Dark Angels Green. Plus, I haven't painted any blue in nearly two years.

And, here's an Ultramarine.

A selection of models that I like. Mostly because I'm not at my LGS right now. Christmas party yesterday was nice, got an FSE transfer sheet and the first four Beast Arises books from Secret Santa.






Addendum: The Riptide with the missile pods is newly painted, but I sadly don't have any images of it on its own.

No update today folks. I'm doing this so my 10,000th post is on my blog, and something notable.
I'd like to thank you all for being nice, supporting my blog, and providing feedback and motivation for me to paint my armies. I've improved incredibly over the time that I've been posting on Dakka, and it's thanks in no small part to those who have created content such as tutorials, given honest feedback, and generally post good things to help people.
Thank you especially to all the people in my local area who post on dakka and talk to me, all you guys are awesome, and give me inspiration. Special special thanks to Kanluwen, Peregrine, and anyone else who I've bantered and posted pictures of games with. You are extra extra awesome (patent pending).
I really appreciate it.

Regular updates will resume shortly. Just a short break while I'm doing boring things.

Congrats on 10,000 posts! Looking forward to some updates soon.

Congrats Verv... it's a great milestone and one you've earned by the quality of your content.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. My posting may be slow in the next few days, depending entirely on whether I can get to my LGS or not.

Addendum: And I got a nosebleed while painting, so Ghostkeel Two is now annointed to Khorne. Lovely.

And today's project, remastering Ghostkeels. The one on the right is (almost) finished, the one on the left is still undergoing painting.

I do so love those Ghostkeel models. So much awesome .
