Missed a few things on here recently. Those treads are looking excellent vik, with a milliput wash to harden them up they'll be perfect. The beast itself is looking huge.

Nice assortment of bitz there, but as others have said, glass is not the best material to use. The pop-a-point pencils are excellent, haven't seen those for ages, I'm going to have to track some down now, thanks

Yeah, get that dread up and walking. Or on treads maybe? The body looks great, just needs some locomotion.

Well, the obvious solution would be to make a smaller sponson for that tank, and then a BIGGER tank for that sponson

So, catching up after a while off, what's been happening in the Glorious Empire? Lots of interesting conversations

Oh, and some turrets. And a very nice looking turret. I actually like the fact the arches don't follow the turret edge but flare out at the bottom. Mind you, I have spent the last year thinking about Orky asymmetry rather than Imperial linearity

COmin g along nicely now vik, and that is a cool vent you found there.

New detailing adds a gak-load of coolness to the beast vik, and as to the Union Jack, I'd keep that un-riveted.

And someday you'll have to regale us with the tale of how you got your tail copper-plated.

Looking very cool with the boiler and stacks in position. Will there be reinforcement rings on the stacks?

And nice work on the chainswaw.

Blimey, she is a big girl isn't she?

Hadn't quite grasped it was that big, all coming togehter nicely now

Always good to see a rivetted backside.

Talking from a mad mek's point of view obviously.

Love watching rivets appear on tanks, they really bring it all together.

Bolts for my bolt guns

Nails for my nail guns

Nuts for my....hmm, that one doesn't work so well, guess they'll go to the squirrels then.

Cake is a lie? Nooo. Say it's not so Oh, I see, phew, that had me faint of heart for a moment there.

And no vik, it couldn't be dakka. That's heresy.



It's not like I could have done anything else in the last couple of hours

It's not the upkeep of your personal blog(s) that sucks time away, it's the keeping up with everybody else's

Go start one right now.

Now.


Go on.




We're waiting...

j3r03n - Sorry, didn't see that there Some good stuff there, and found another company begging for my credits (Scotia Grendel). But vik is right, you should throw some of it up on here, if everybody posts on Dakka it makes it so much easier for us to keep track of everything

vik - look at the troopers in my chaos blog, most of those are cadian torso's on catachan legs with the belt chopped off. Alternatively, just make sure they have plenty of gear on their belts.

Start with a few pics of what you've done already then just continue from there, no need to fill all the gaps, if they want to see the history they'll check your other blog. I'm sure there's plenty of peeps around here who'd enjoy your take on squats. And as vik said, you're just starting the Helghast - ideal

Extra wargear - covering gaps since 1784

I am? I mean, yes, I am! I'm wise and sensible and mature and a model citizen and I'm writing about tiny robotic fungus men from space that I make in my spare room.

And I think he's coming round vik


edit : Hang on, was that just your way of saying I'm old?

What is this talk of kicking pig's bladders around? Heresy. Cleanse it with fire NOW.

And as to those rumours Baiyuan's helping to spread, they're false.


It was all about muties back then Orks are newcomers to my collection.

Oh I don't know vik....

vik - I have now, auto-append strikes again.

neil - He should have made more use of them and got rid of that fool Beast-Man then

I thought she was in an iron lung, ruling the galaxy?

But...but..I read it on the interwebz, it must be true!

'sniff,sniff' I smell cake? Cake for the cake god!

Happy birthday to Oskar, hope you all have a great day - enjoy.

Are you sure you really want to see that?

Well played vik

To help get the juices flowing

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.

With swappableweapons too.

Oh you're a bad man for posting that link vik. I seriously cannot afford to buy anything at the moment.

Oh man, another cool site ripe for some looting. Thanks J3r30n.

Now I just need to save some more teef.

And that will be different how?

Hey, no worries vik. Rest up and get well soon.

Or he's going to re-appear with a flash, a bang and an entirely new idea he's just started work on

Ouch! You have been having a rough ride recently vik. Maybe we should isolate you in a giant steam-driven iron lung like her majesty, keep you nice and safe

And I'll echo shaso's relief that they caught it early, rest easy vik.

Mrs Vik has locked him in the workroom till he has finished stuff to take pics of......
