I wish I didn't have school today, you ninja'd Slayne, but you've been sick, so you deserve it.
How much do you think the postage from the US to you would be?

Erh.. not sure. I just took a trip down to my Post Office and asked how much it would cost from here to the US.. so.. either that or just google?

I'll look it up eventually. I was asking in case we ever do a swap.

Ooh he looks coool! Thanks mate, i'll paint yours on the weekend. sorry about school delays.

Brother Lucifer. I've sent a couple of single model sized envelopes to the UK recently and it was $1.44 so it shouldn't be too much more than that to Iceland.

That sounds great.
It would be a small box or envelope, so it'll be cheap.

marines for lenny, Lucifer, Iceangel, and Git are all on the finishing touches. do you guys want basing. i do snow basing with some sand. i can post pic with basing along with the marines tonight when they are done

My Dad made it through the surgery mostly together (they took his gall bladder). He should be coming home tomorrow. Thanks for all your good wish's and thoughts!


eff this week.

battle Brother Lucifer wrote:Is it the commander with the double chainsword spear thing?

Why yes it is. He's actually got a good bit of paint on him. But he's still a ways off.

thats great to hear!
but again sorry about it all.


here are some pics.
sorry they are a bit blurry :( trying out my roommate's camera, it isnt great for this, more for video it seems. i'll try to get better pics morrow with gf camera.

marine for Lucifer:





marine for lennysmash




marine for iceangel




this marine's legs were already a bit primed but i used them anyway since they were the only legs i had. they look a bit gloppy now. if you want a different marine iceangel i'll paint you one, and i'll get a better pic of this one tomorrow. i thought the legs would turn out better, thou i dont think it is awful. if you want a new marine got to wait till they come in the mail thou :/

and lastly the marine for Git




and here is an example of my basing in case any of you want some basing.

the blury pic doesnt show it well thou gahh. i hate blurry picssss!

i guess i could have put up less pics but thought pics of each side would be better in the hopes it would give a better idea of how a non-blurry pic would look.

sorry if too much

Well, that pic is whe he was first starting to be built. The weapon has been changed but is currently frusturating me. I'll see if I can't get better pics (and newer ones, for that matter).

Thanks by the way!

Those are great Sageheart! Man your modeling and painting have really come along in a short period of time. You're gonna really make me *work* to equal your trade aren't you?

Good work my friend.

Gits

that was a wonderful comment thank you!!

well of course you have to work its a sageheart brand model

Sage, all I can say is, amazing.
Lovin the beard, btw.

thank you!! i thought the beard was awesome too!

Nice looking marine Sage! I love the sword and board look you gave him. Don't base the marine for me. I am going to base him so he matches my table and all the others. As for gloppy legs, you can be the judge. As long as you are happy with him then so am I. I would have to agree with Gits comment as well. Keep on painting and you'll see the painting keep getting better. All you need to do now is learn to take better pictures! lol.

Hey Whale, how did my guy survive? He alright?

Yup, he made it in one piece. I got Gits MW back together, and the Doom Eagle made it unscathed.

I'm picking dad up after work today, and my finger is better-ish, I did some hard edging on a vindicator last night, just to see if I could. I should be able to start up again next week. And hopefully get to the PO, assuming no more madness ensues.

Glad to hear things have taken a turn for the better Whale, all the best to your dad for a speedy recovery mate.

And yourself for that matter...

hahahah thanks ice angel! i do need to learn to take better pics!!

Okay Git, heres you'r finished marine.

Aswell as some WIP´s for Brother Lucifer's sarg. I'm trading with him!


Git's marine:





There is some 'slight'(not really 'slight') pooling on his right knee(lucky for me, the pics dont show it ) and his eyes are just some red with a white dot. I've never been that good with eyes, usually its just Foundation Red>Scab Red>Fountation Highlight>White dot. Now its just Scab Red>White dot. The black highlights look a lot better IRL.

As for Lucifer's sarg. :





Really tapletop heavy, so I added a little bonus on the bottom lol. Hope you like After trying to pin, GS and eventually just giving up on the sword arm I finally got it to stick. Now all I'm hoping for is that my effort wont be ruined when I strip the paint off( the brake fluid I use tends to soften the superglue, cousing parts to fall off..).

Oh, and the photor aren't that good becouse my dad's using the camera tonight(he's a photographer and needs to take pictures for a festival in town). I'm Athiest, but thank wahtever's up there for the Dakka Auto-adjusting pictures. Pretty much saved the photos I took

No painting done this weekend(or very little at least) as there is a HUGE festival( huge when you compare it to other festivals around here, not really that big if you compare US, UK etc.) and I'll be there.. partying while I'm still young, eh?

The sword looks great.
Gretar, did you want me to strip and repaint the vet, or replace the arms of my other sarg?

Looks good gretar, I have a shoulder pad and bolter waiting for him. Now all I need do is get yours done!

Gitsplitta's "Great Marine Swap" (with decorative Stormboyz Nob with Boss Pole and Power Klaw)


My "it's a keepa!" Stormboyz Nob with Boss Pole and Power Klaw


Still have to clean up then Orkify the "pennants", but otherwise its done! Expect foundation coat Tuesday

As always, click through for a more detailed view...

Truly phenomenal there Arakasi, though it seems a shame to waste it on a normal base.....

I hear-by propose that the model should be based upon a full ten man tactical squad of marines. All those in favour say "Aye".

At least I'm nearly keeping up... Basic build is done, still have some odds & sodds to do, but I'm getting close.
