Wow, that's awesome!

Wow I am just in awe.... Your painting skills are way up there. It looks so crisp. One word: Inspirational.

It's been a while!

With the GT missing last year in my usual warhammer calender (went 8 years in a row) my P&M was downgraded a little bit.

But I havent been doing nothing. Yesterday was our annual painting comp. in our FLGS. After about 7.5 hours of painting I came up with this:

The Crimson fist lieutenant from the 40k 25th anniversary, switched to the Imperial fists!



The picture isnt the best, lighting isnt optimal, and the focus isn't exactly right, but wanted to share it with you guys nonetheless.

And since this will be a Thousand sons / Imperial Fist log coming months, here is something Tzeentch related:

I finished the base for the Forgefiend:

Your Tile work never ceases to amaze me

That base looks fabulous. Nice job.

Thanks guys!

Awesome stuff! Typical that I start painting IF and then Develain turns up to show me how it's done! I have that model and he's due a repaint, yours will no doubt be an inspiration!

Thanks Para!

I tried to take a picture with my own phone, I think it's slightly better.. Still not great though.
I gotta get a tutorial on how to photograph yellow models well..



Oh I got this picture of me with the award that I won with it



Thousand sons are up next time!

The highlighting on the Imperial Fist is just perfect, well deserving of that award!

This is the face of awesome.

Congrats, you deserve such a kickin trophy! Can't wait to see some 1k sons.

And theyre the old school paint pots! Niccce.

Started painting the scratch built Forge fiend:

Congratulations indeed! That is an awesome trophy, too! Talk about "Scratch Built..." Those are the best kind.

Excited to see the Thousand Sons project continue for sure. The mosaic bases are amazing, and really tie in well with the yellow/blue color scheme.

Thanks Panther!

Worked on the Forgefiend torso/sarcophagus for a while now.
But it's finally finished!

I loosely based it on a Warmachine mech, that big blue one, forgot it's name though. I went for Hades autocannons, because plasma cannons wouldnt look as menacing as these gatling guns!

The faceplate is ofcourse from a Defiler, with the horns removed and an eye sculpted on it's forehead. This is the only GW bit on this model so far!




He has been undercoated and ready for some paint! I am finishing up the legs first, so expect to see a picture of it in the next few days.

Legs are finished:

Freehanded a thingy on Ahrimans Rhino:

Epic. Gorgeous and totally you. Jealous man over here my friend.

Disgusting. How can you even call that painting?

...

...

Yeah, it's freaking gorgeous. Allow me my jealous pouting. lol

Hehe, thanks guys! Really appreciate it.

Here is the front of the Rhino:



You can see the rest of the tank in this Thread over on the P&M showcase:

I have no words for your paint style. It's just so good!

Please keep painting, I love seeing your stuff!

Here is a grey knight I've been paiting last week.
The grey colour is pretty bright and therefore hard to get it to look right on a picture..

Anyway here are 2 pictures with different lighting. He looks better in real life..

The Grey Knight looks really nice, really like the grey and blue colour choice.

Lovely stuff as usual, man. The Rhino is amazing--the freehand on the door and also on the rooftop symbol (nice marble effect!) is unbelievable.

I love the alternate, non-metallic Grey Knight too, and I totally hear you about "looks better in real life"--taking photos of minis is really hard.

I love that your Grey Knight is actually, you know, grey, and not just silver. I liked their old color scheme much more than the current one.

Hey Guys! Haven't posted here anything in a long time. Got a little lost in several projects I started/ Finished.

Anyway here is a completely new one for you.

Little introduction for this one though . A friend from our gaming group is organising a 40K themed Deathrace this December for his birthday. So everyone who enters can make his own goofy 40k racer: Think Wacky Racers, Mariokart, Formula Dé Etc..

When he announced it we all came up with weird ideas for racers, and I blattered out that a Looted Back to the Future DeLorean would be really funny to make.

When I got my hands on 2 classic Ork Trukks I really started thinking about actually making it!

And here we are right now:

The classic Trukks:



Chopped the chassis up to make a new one:



And the actual ride:





And some more detail, I really like how the wiring and glyphs look on it.



Im really getting there, this is all W.I.P. ofcourse, needs more wiring, glyphs and orky tech stuff on the back like the original car has.

I really enjoy scratchbuilding orky stuff so far. If this is a succes I might start an Evil Sunz Waaagh and this car will be an Ork Buggy in regular 40k games.

More to come in the future!

Colour me impressed. All great, but the DelORKean is truly inspired...

You have a fine eye for detail and a very distinctive style. Consider me a fan

Haha! Good to hear from you again. Now you just need to find a way to make strips of fire erupt from behind the tires
It's looking really cool so far, also personally I think a Waaagh! from you would look astounding!

Thanks guys, good to hear from you again!

Little update, added some more details and a big glyph on the hood:





Glyph:



Going to add a twin linked rokkit launcher and some mek stuff on the back, along with other shenanigans.

Haven't uploaded in almost 2 years..

Aaanyway, I have been making stuff meanwhile, just a grasp of things im working on.




And this is where I got a new phone


(Dont know why its on its side this picture, I turned it right on Photobucket..) click on it if you dont wanna turn your head )

I have way more to upload, Have to dig in the archives from last year. So look out for that!
