Hey folks, I've just started doing some commissions and thought it would be a good opportunity to get some feedback from the lovely people here

I've been doing a Death Korp army most recently with a mix of GW and FW models. It was a fairly simple idea to go with as the main specifications where red & black with weathered/old looking weapons and equipment. Heres some images of what has been done for the army so far:













Would love to hear what you think?

And heres some more basic squads:







And heres what I'm working on at the moment:

A Vendetta for the death korp army. This one will be little different from the rest, it's going to mostly be a dirty, old looking metal with only some areas with the red & black.



And I do try to paint my own stuff every so often, and I'm currently working on a Tau force. Heres some of the models I've copleted for it and the battlesuit I'm currently working on:

Progress update on the vendetta, have the hull done except for a few red/black sections that will be added, mainly to help it tie in with the rest of the force. I also want to add a little weathering on some sections to help with the aged look required.



Nest up will be the cockpit, and then some identifaction. The vendettas named the Cookie Cutter so its going to have that stencilled across the nose with the cookie monster just above

Also added a little more to the battlesuit but have been hit with a bit of painters block (its a real thing) with it. Not sure whether I should add some different colored panels (either something completely different or the light blue I've used elsewhere) or add more sept markings than normal but more intricate. Would love to hear your thoughts?

Hey man!

Got some nice looking stuff going on here. Cool paintjob on the Death korp, nice and clean painting, high level id say of painting.

Gonna be fun to watch this blogg going on - keep it up bro!

Thanks Charky, Really appreciate your comments

Made a small amount of progress on the Vendetta, adding some black/red lined panels to help it tie into the rest of the army (albeit subtally), and made a good start on the cockpit.







So next up will be finishing off the cockpit, and then to add some identifacation...

Let me know what you think?

Wow! That is some amazing work you have there! I have never seen DKOK with the red before either!

Thanks BloodGenisis, nice of you to say

Time for a Vendetta update and I think it is now complete:







Please let me know what you think?

The korps looks great! The red and black really make them intimidating.

Hey Folks,

Went dark for a wee while as was feeling under the weather. Back onto the painting again today and added the fnal details to the battlesuit:









Very happy how it turned out, except for the "power generator"on the back, think that could have been a hell of a lot smoother.

Let me know what you think?

Progressed a wee bit with the Leman Russ, now have the hull finished and just onto the details:



Also been working on the Korvydae figure, which has been dubbed Korvydave in honor of the owner. Had a lot of fun painting this miniture, beautifully detailed and an excellant casting;







As always I would love to hear what you think....

Very nice work. I was going to say that red and black seem to be your colors... but then I saw that last one. Very nice indeed.

The guard stuff is really nice. Makes a change from mud corps.

Thanks guys . I did realise a few weeks ago everything I'm working on currently is some variation on red and black, could lead to an epic allied force in a big game though!

Just been away for a long weekend in Sweden, so been catching up with my painting over the last few days and have now completed the Leman Russ and Korvydae. So without further ado, here they are:



















as always please let me know what you think of them?

Very nice work on the Russ and Korvy... I'm not quite sure about the reddish/orange spots on the Russ. Are they supposed to be rust or camo?
