lol... i know that feeling... got disatracted totally with another major project but i promise soon to be on tracks again!

It is amazing how you can get distracted..... I should continue on my project as well.

story of ym hobby life... creativity is a curse and a blessing packed together... too much creativity makes your mind bubbling with constantly emerging new ideas... the amount of unfinished projects greatly exeeds any finished one...

Some minor update - #4 concept posing is complete.


Other pics here.

yeah go and have all a look... that is such a mean teaser pic... ^^

As of right now, my project for this contest hasnt even left the States, and will not for the next week. Given the randomness of mail delivery here, i highly doubt i will be able to compete. So, for my sanity and the sanity of everyone else in this contest, I am dropping out, but will continue to leave comments and concerns for everyone on there projects. UG, sorry for wasting your time and thanks for allowing me to participate.

Ok quick update so UnluckGuardsman doesn't disqualify me!

Have managed to do some painting today and the wife is out tomorrow night so I can get some more in.

Am just doing Aquilas on these guys (urgh - sooooo intensive!) then next up will be the armour/guns. Then they're actually nearly finished. I've also undercoated and basecoated the other half of the squad.

Enjoy!

Hey man, it wasn't a waste of time, hope you can finish your project at some point!

Oh man, sorry for not posting in here often enough! It's tough to remember to get pics up during the process... Anyway I've got 2 out of three completely done, and the big shoota kommando is undercoated. Great work so far everybody!

@ Rawson & Vierhof - it's a cyber arm holding a chainsaw blade

@ Jamumools - cool looking guys! Love the central one. Where their heads from?

Well later I will be posting my pictures of my new and (improved?) base

The first head is from the Chimera, second is a standard Cadian, third is a Flagellant (with green stuffed shades!), 4th is a Catachan, 5th is from the Cadian Command Sprue.

i forgot to take an in progress picture of my ship! insted i'll just paint up the model that i made on the 5th of November..... V !

UPDATE TIME!!!!
1. are we allowed to put 2 entries in?
2. if so here is #1
3. Made my base for my capitan
4. I have painted his whole body, servo skull, base and stand
5. Is the stand ok?
6. Comments Questions/concerns welcome and CC!!!!!

So I totally forgot to post last week!
But it's been pretty busy and will remain until next week :(

Here's the update though!

No progress on my Heavy gunner yet :(
And for some reason I think there's a fat chance I wont be able to complete him before the deadline, so I want to add a second mini just in case...
Meet the Plasma gunner:



He's almost finished, so I hope to start paint him this week.
Earlier WIP pics and a clarifications on his weapons are in my thread.

Quick update, taken with camera, so picture even worse than normal...!

Not sure if you can see the squad markings or not. The plan for the army, which will have darkish brown armour, is to have a black "gate of cadia" with the circle in between the posts coloured as per the platoon, with a squad number. These guys, being veterans, have a black and yellow circle, with white posts (cause they got the black armour). But thoughts welcome.

The highlights on the armour don't look quite that sharp in real life. And once I put some more colour and brown bits on it should tone down the sharpness as well.

Enjoy...

Man Everybody makes my work look like crap! I unfortunetly was hit with a football in the eye.... And I have a, a, ah..... eyeball concusion or somthing like that. (dont know the medical term ) Bluryness and trouble focesing. Sorry for any mis spells, Hard to see the keyboard.

Great stuff guys! I'll take pics of my stuff when I can.. uh... find the camera.

sounds painful Renegade!

at IR
first the cold and now the smashed eye... man you have to get out of the heat.... sounds like you stick your neck to every forefront that shows itself.... good healing...again...

This is a dangerous competition!!!
Me knife the foot, footballs in the eye.

Whats next folks????
Hahaha this is also one of the funnest competitions I have been apart of

I've managed to knife two of my fingers now. I think...I think I'll survive.

Worked on Celestine a bit last night. I think I've decided on the smaller wings. I really like the big ones better, but they get in the way of a lot of other details and I think they'd be too much of a hassle to attach. The small ones have a peg the same size as Celestine's original drapery, which makes things really easy. And this way I'll be able to paint everything separately.

Considering I do plan on painting things separately, I'll make sure to get an assembled shot in while I'm test fitting everything, for the modelling side of the competition.

well i got disatracted due to a project for my kids... building a pirate ship atm and knifed my thumb and forefinger on the left hand... imagine now to trying to hold something with that hand^^ only minior scratches but well... so i feel your pain literally^^

A tiny bit of work has been done on my entries, but not enough to show all of you. When I've done a little more work I'll update with pics.

And there are quite a few people that have injured themselves in this thread. Am I next?
