Ain't that the truth

Here is Lok's Servo Skull and Cortez with the Gold complete

Little more progress on Cotex

I finished up Cortez today I also ordered a cool cheapo airbrush set for $75

That Coteaz looks fantastic! Best rendition of that model I have seen to date!
where did you get that airbrush set from?

This store on E-bay,Funhobby
Linky

Here are my models for the book Characters from Left to Right
Justicar Gallo,Malchadiel,Dumenidon,Hyperion




I did Sothis later but switched it up by moving the auspex
Sothis now has the swords since he was described as being tutored by Dumenidon
And Malchadiel has the Psycannon for gaming purposes ( I feel better fits his tech nature to have him wield a relic like a psycannon)

I have the Inceptor Squad from Emperor's Gift Chromed and Balthasar Golded

Finished three of them off today

awesome!

Last night it was bothering me that Malchadiel has a Psycannon and not twin swords.
Enter the Clones.
I used the exact same bits to make a twin falchon version of Malchadiel
John Woo Hyperion coming very soon


I masked with the smallest tamiya tape and protected the mini with Silly Putty( The worlds best flexible masking material)



Well my first go with airbrush blades had mixed sucess,just need practice is all,did'nt help the airbrush spit water on the blade right at the crucial point.
I used Praxi White drypaint to kind of pull it back togther.
I am having problems getting the reflection right on the falchon though.
Gotta few spares of those that I will practice with.

It looks great, but Im sure it takes practice

Second batch of blades came out much better,getting the hang on it.
Even for the Falchion too.
I used an old Metal Kngiht I had to be Brotherhood Champion.
The metal ones had cooler bolters /w belt feeds.

I have the alternates for Hyperion and Malchadiel


I also picked up Crowe

So After working on the Brotherhood Champion for like for four hours today,I finish him and I am very happy with the results.
Then this Build magically appears,Needless to say this is the new Champ

Ok so the Brotherhood Champion got a total rework from the metal body.
But I am so much more happy with this Champion,looks like what I picture Janus to look like.
I have a good handle on NMM powerblades now.
This might be a good Pre-Heresy Style for the Original 8 or super fancy Purifyers
Templar Tabards,DA hooded Helms,Knight body.
I also reworked the base,using a choice terrain bit that was waiting for the right model.

Finished the Brotherhood Champion tonight

I love the Brotherhood champion, he's very subdued on his base, but he also pops!

I must say that is one very impressive Imperial Guard army . Those tank conversion are amazing . I really like the weld lines a lot and that tool you made very smart.

Banged out the Stormraven today,just need to add a couple of transfers and some light weathering.
I added a Knight chest and pad for the pilot,the gold Aegis looks good through the cockpit.
Never happy with a stock model I scribed out the flaps and positioned them down.
Which is accurate for a aircraft on the deck or coming in low for a attack run.
I fiend for the day they make plastic Thunderbolts.




I also finished of this Termie Justicar with Thrice Blessed Daemonhammer and Psycannon

Finished off the Stormraven,a good job I could of done better.
The transfers I wanted to use broke and I had no spares,so I had to made do with what I used.
I did not preshade the aircraft either,but that aside I still have a good looking model

Even though it looked cool as hell,I replaced the Psycannon with a standard stormbolter.
Now he is the perfect model for Grand Master Mordrak
Guess I HAVE to make me some Ghost Knights now

Ok like I said with this weapon swap I now have my model for Grand Master Mordrak.

And the first Ghost Knight,still have to do the blade.
I like the idea of Ghost knight being like Spectral Black Knights.
I made a dark metalic mix with boltgun and black and then gave the model a wash of Nuin Oil.
I drybrushed the text first silver,then white and hit that with Waywater Green glaze.

A little tip when it comes to airbrushing the blades I have yet to see anyone add.
When masking the blade with tape,once taped spary with matt varnish.
This prevents seepage under the tape.
When you move the tape for the second side of the blade,spray again with varnish before highlighting.

I tried to skip this step today with bad results and had to redo blade on this Apothecary



I also finished two more Ghost Knights except for the blades






I also started work on the Brotherhood Banner and two more standard Halberd Knights





Automatically Appended Next Post:
Today I finished the Three Ghost Knights,I will make two more at a later date.
But there is Grand Master Mordrak and his Ghostly Bodyguard





I also finished the Terminator Apothecary

I finished the Brotherhood Banner Bearer.


Then whille on the can reading the Grey Knight codex I saw the Ghost Knights get to upgrade a guy with a banner too
This one I got to freehandmI gave it a Legion of the Damed esque feel to it.
Are they related somehow to the Damned,spurned on by the same insane devotion that follows after death?
I used the name Mortain for the banner as that was the planet the Squad died on.

I finished the last Ghost Knight this afternoon,Twin Falchons.
That brings the unit to it's legal maximum.I will make at least two more at a later date for Mordrak's special rule that lets him add more knight each time he is wounded.

WOW!!! Sweet ghost knights they are just so wow

Finished the next unit everyone's favorite Highlander Knight Justicar Thrawn






The first fatal wound

That is absolutely fantastic! Love the bloodied up helmet on the the ground! where did you get that head from?

Both came from the Termie kit

I just finished this Paladin too.
I have about 5 knights to do,should go pretty quick they are all chromed and bladed,just need to pick out details,ect.
I am putting the Paladins on bases with Vertical elements,like the HQ's
The standard Knights will have flat bases.
Just ordered the parts for a most excellent Dreadknight Relic Coontemptor
Stay Tuned






2nd Paladin(4th if you count the first two from the very beginning)


[IMG]http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/013-17.jpg[/IMG

And the last of the Paladins,and old concept I had for the original Mordrak model
Hammer and Psycannon.
Now I have 3 Halberds left to do,before I am out of termies,will probally buy one more box.

Got one final one done before midnight,that's three today,not too shabby

Wow! You sure are rocking it!

Then finished him by 4am,time for bed me thinks

im looking for silly putty but i cant find it. will regular blue tack or postertack work??

on your airbrush, its a good little setup to start with, but if you want a consistent pressure you really want a compressor with a tank

Might be a US only thing.
It is a small kids toy,try a toy store or me I found it in the dollar store in the cheap toy. Section,seen them at the phamacy too.
Just look where the small store keep cheap ass kids toys.

I know what you mean about the setup,one day soon.
