usually that hunting style goes side by side with a bit put unawares into the oven...*nudge, nudge, nudge*

anyways... i have finally some updates to share...if someone might be interested^^

so... i revisted the idea to mount the medich^^ on the tracks... i had to do a clever trick...well sort of...^^ as the arm prooved to be an obstacle... so i just truned it around and now it is mounted...also a bit beneath... shows the first lick of paint on the church... mind you it is only primed with cheap brown... i imagine the church to be not really in a neat condition...so plenty of rusty streaks...and so on...










vik

oh and the mini will be a mech/medic for the rivetto crew...

Doffing his hat? ^^

good work as usual, and for the rusty effect (if you're using GW paints) what I like to do is a drybrush of boltgun metal (dark silver), a lighter drybrush of tin bitz (metallic brown), and then a wash of devlan mud (brown)- IMO it gives a nice rusty effect to metal surfaces.

it's looking good Vik.
and the church i thoughed you used cardboard

i need to get me that tin bitz soon... it is always lacking in my palette... need one darker metal color...as i used the brown as a basecoat it will already have lots of scratches in brown all over... with boltgun and tin i think this could be a good effect...of course adding:


always adds cream to any painting^^


at fatty
...now.... where would be the point to add rivets to a cardboardlooking structure? lol

i dunno? but that color is just like cardboard

lol...now i get you^^ but my cardboard i use is usually grey so i didn´t get it in the frist time^^ lol... of course due to the flash it is now a bit lighter in color...maybe i get some first true painting done on that piece tomorrow...

Skill in a bottle.......

by the way... that is my meme^^ i did it^^

Medic is looking the bomb Nice job and works well with the tracks but needs more rivets brother more rivets

The church does look a little cardboard at the moment I have to agree but I am sure it is early days and will be turned into coolness shortly ……. if not you will be in for a good riveting now who has the gun …….

yue ne parley poep franscese. i really never had any francch at highschool... only deutsch

ah.... but for that... google fu is only needed^^

but to tell a truth... it was most tiresom for me too^^

ehe... Worry 'bout that. Would 'Ihm' have been correct in that situation? I used to have a chart of the various pronouns, from schuele.

Anyways, hope he had a Schwein.

lol... yep..."ihm" would be perfect...

and one of my english teachers used to name these pronouns the lil "scheissdingers" lol... it is so easy to get them wrong...and in certain parts of my hometown...they can´t use them right either^^

as for the piggy.... i think you mean to ask if he had a lucky day? i guess so^^

That's what I was asking. I'm not that up on modern German sayings and idioms, though. Also, I'm using a Wuerterbuch that's probably about 50-60 jahre alt, so there is that, too.

I suck at all four of the languages I speak.


Engrish most prominently........

LOL! I HAZ GUN!!!!

I love the Watchmen, that is one of my Favourite Quotes

Not that’s its relevant to the comic, but I have a favourite Latin quote, that I have tattooed on my collar bone “Fronti nulla fides”

In regards to live languages, my limit it

“je ne comprends pas, je suis un canard” (Thanks to Bob hoskins and a Duck in an old BT advert)

&

“dos cervezas por favor, y uno café con leche”

i too like the watchmen... tho i got that quote from my favorite novel...: the nightwatch...from the author terry pratchett... i´ve read next to everything from him... and in his book the maincharacter uses this quote for his own need... on the question "who watches the watchmen" he replies...we watch us ourselves...and in one book he answers to this question...me...all the time... me...

this version i have "instilled" into my children... they now instantly reply on that phrase with "me"^^

and so...you are a duck? lol...
for me it was always je ne sais pas et puis t'egal...

and...

Fronti nulla fides

...don´t judge a book by it´s cover?

I love the Terry Pratchett novels as well, especially the guard ones. Commander Vimes is awesome

Yes the Tattoo is “no reliance can be placed upon appearance” so yes “Don’t judge a book by its cover”.

When I previously worked as a doorman (Bouncer) I used to have a shaved head and a goatee beard. People used to cross the road to avoid me. I am not a big thug honest, lol I play with toy soldiers FFS lol. It’s a façade that I put on for the job. And at the time that involved the hair cut. This time round I have slightly longer hair (although I still have a beard, it just covers more of my face grr)

like vimes in one novel thinks:... less hair to comb...more face to be washed^^

have you ever faced someone that wanted to make a fuzz simply because he thought of you as a trophy because you seem so strong? i have heard that often women now are bouncers so to avoid this manly behavior to go against tough odds to proove themselves...
