Stained glass is done.

MoTF is progressing slowly but steadily. It's kind of uninspired I'm afraid, but should be painted to a decent standard. We'll see if I can put another hour in on it tonight.

**The Good Green**

That MotF is awesome. I'm confused by him running through the wall, but the whole thing looks cool. Is he equipped with a teleporter?

**1-i**

That glass window looks legit.
I mean real legit, knowing that its not glass doesnt seem to make it look non glass . That turned out amazing

**Gitsplitta**

No, he was moving across the wall to his right, then was startled by something to his left & is shifting position.

Here's tonight's progress... I'm all in.

There's still a lot of red on him that will disappear in a hurry once I get to the cables and such, just don't want to do them till last as it's what I handle him by.

**prototype_X**

just finished reading the entire thread took a while but it was worth it

regarding the motf OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that looks incredible cant wait to see it finished

**CommissarKhaine**

The MOTF is looking great Gits. Not to mention the stained glass - quite the looker!

I didn't think some people would do that again, by now... Good job!

@ Gits : I really like how the MoTF is turning out... Great work on the stained glass!!!

**Vitruvian XVII**

Looking really good, you've got nothing to worry about

(apart from the impending deadline obviously, the painting is top-notch

)

**dantay_xv**

Hey Gits, i like how everything is turning out, the motf is looking nice. I can see what you are saying about the red, but the metallics and other detailing will break it up nicely.

Don't forget the objective marker that you still have to do though.

Atleast it will give you a mental break from the motf red-ness, if you need it.

And with Adepticon looming. GOOD LUCK, may the Emperor guide your hands and keep you from the curse of bad dice.

And good luck to the other Wardens, we look forward to hearing your war-stories.

**DarthLakey**

on the top of one of the clamps (left in pic) there is a screw thing... I think it looks a little out of place.
your descision though.
THE MODEL IS GREAT!

I painted the torso and legs of my hunter-captain for my Mantis Warriors (I nead a name he's counts as Shrike) will get ics up ASAP
(I also made his command squad)

and Dantay, if I am not mistaken you need THREE objective pieces for adepticon

**Revenent Reiko**

Thats excellent Gits, the stained glass window especially is so realistic its not even funny!

**samwellfrm**

I love that stained glass.

**Thortek**

I am so sad that I havent been able to follow this thread as close as I would have liked...but Git, you work is utterly amazing.

**Santobell**

Hey nice Conver Git doc Oc would be proud, but with all seriousness I really like the intent on this one he really feels like he has to move
it's a really nicely posed model!

The stained glass is great btw!

That "screw bit" is part of the clamp, it's the bit that lets the jaws open wider I believe.

But he's looking good Gits, I like what you did with the stained glass, I may have to pinch that idea. Was it just done witht he GW washes?

**Solar_lion**

Brother ... you got it under control.. looking forward to seeing it in person.. tomorrow..

sig'd

and i second this notion

**FITZZ**

Y'know Gitz...every time I visit your blog I just get more and more impressed with the quality of work your turning out...it's always a treat to see what you've added.
Fantastic work my friend...

**fatty**

speechless......
luckly i am on the internet so i can typ how awesome it is.

**dantay_xv**

i know he needs 3, but his previous comments stated he had 1 left to make. Although he already has several.

Cant wait to see the army done & dusted. Have a blast at Adepticon

**-Cypher-**

That stained glass is amazing Gits, and if it really bothers you just know that as inspired as that wall is, none but the most insulting people would comment on the MoTF being "uninspired" (who could say such a thing at all?!). Great model and I can't wait to see how you bring it all together.

**Skittles**

Good luck at Adepticon! I will see you down there - make the home team proud!

**schank23**

Very nice Gitz. That base is awesome. And that Marine rocks.

**Revenent Reiko**

Not sure when you're leaving, but good luck at Adepticon!
Wardens of the Maelstrom FTW!

**wolfshadow**

Mindblowing work on that stained glass. So awsome.

The MoTF is coming along quite nicely. One you start hitting him with metallics, hes gonna be boss. No worries.

**Gitsplitta**

Hey guys. Sorry I've been so quiet. Had kind of a re-lapse on Wed & have be flat on my back since then. Solar's here how playing nurse maid (poor sod). Right now my trip to Adepticon is hanging on what my doctor says later today, but will try to do a quick finish job on my MoTF this morning so the army can go even if I cant.

If anyone there has no commitments for Saturday you might try and fine Ice Angel or Solar_lion (no idea how you'd do this) in case they're a man down. Hopefully not, but you never know. I don't want to see the team go down after all the work we put in, just because I got sick

Gits

**Revenent Reiko**

O Noooo!
hope you're feeling better Gits (@Solar_lion, i think you may have to slip the doc a few bucks for a clean bill of health

)
seriously though, that would be a kick in the

i really hope you can go and show off your MW's in person.
Good luck and let us know what happens please

**Miss Dee**

As long as you dont call him Nurse you will be ok.

**IceAngel**

I really hope you can make it. The whole experience would be lessoned without gaming with Git. But if Git is unable to attend and someone can fill his last spot shoot me a pm in dakka and we will work out the details. The wardens will sadly still continue without our captain if needed.
