Once again ...Fabulous tutorial and nice pictures... any suggestion on colors for doing the same in red?

Will def. plan on trying it.

Awesome tutorial, definately going to be having a bash at this myself!

And I can also confirm that these models look stunning in the flesh. Had the pleasure of seeing them today when SoR brought some in to the store. The chaplain is amazing!

And he beat me in a WFB demo game. So I hate him twice!

Cheers lol..

Though next time i play you at fantasy it'll be with full proper rules and magic etc... i reckon you would have done better if you remembered to fire the cannon in your first shooting phase i wouldn't have done so well

Fantasy is by far inferior to 40k!

In most ways, but Im still very intregued by it. Love Bretonians and wood elves and lizardmen and suchlike, but Im imminently buying a bretonian box set.

What fantasy army are you SoO and do you have any pics O' doom O' those?

i was goblins.. but not my goblins.. just the skull pass ones they had in the store ... my fantasy collection so far consists of the GD model from last year and that's is :/

Thats so pretty inspiring work. Brilliant painting and tutorials, and some of the conversions are superb. Keep up the good work mate!

Outstanding as always, makes me sad that my painting skills are not nearly the caliber they should be.

The new WD is 100% WFB so not getting it.

I dont like the changes... seems like wierd 40k/fantasy breed with elements of old editions spiced up with noobiness ...

As you all can see I have changed the name of my blog so I can include everything in it like my golden Demon stuff I’m working on rather than doing a separate blog for that.

And I have more GD coming along which I have previously kept hidden up till now... and here are some pics:

Vehicle Category:




The sentinel I’m working on for the vehicle category, it’s about half done at the moment. I’m working on the crew member separately

Warhammer Fantasy Single Miniature:


The Empire Warrior Priest. I only started on this one today but he's coming along quite well. The face is really gnarled (though these pictures are a bit poor and don't show it to well) So far I have painted the flesh on him and made a start on the armour.

Cheers,
SoO

And Thanks to All who have looked at this blog over the last 6 months! It’s now at over 50,000 views!

shouldn't it be on a square base? Lookin' really good though!

Yeah but the one it came with was way to small for some reason and the round one is only for painting

Awesome sentinel dude!

Lookin forward to seeing what you do with the base.

Sentinel rocks man,

and congrats on the 50,000 views!

Im subscribed.

That sentinel is unbelievable.

Excellent wethering.

Looks awesome. I bookmarked your tutorial on power swords. I'm total trash at any and all free hand, so it really helped a lot. Thanks.

got my bases lases cut yesterday


the bases are made out of a number of layers of laser etched perspex. the left one is for the librarian - farseer duel and the round one is for the sentinel.


a close up of the eldaresque base. its meant to look fairly craftworldy



the base was undercoated black, the sprayed with various shades of light grey and finally white. then the cracks scraped out with a scalpel.

i haven't started on the sentinel base yet.



the warrior priest. just started painting the fleur de lys on his clothing and it is so hard!! it takes about 20 to 30 mins for each one!!

SoO

I admire your ability to paint the fleur de lys on his clothing. I would fail at number one and have to start the whole piece again.

close up of the fleur de lys

I would DEFINATELY fail on number one.

THAT is impressive.

Omg..That takes forever..Too bad transfers are suck.

OK, my question is... "got my bases cut yesterday"....

Where and How? Those are pretty spectacular too. (I'm not mentioning the fleurs because well... that's just proof in insanity that could be used agin' you at a later date...

i have to say WOW MAN!!! your stuff is just super awomse to look at m8. the land rider in the start was just awsome i feel in love whit that one the sec i sa it. and the rest of your work was just a big joy to look at, and it gave me a new boost to paint some more.
will keep a eye on your blog here at daka m8.

I'm a rather lucky person, i got a work experience placement with an architectural modelling company about 2 years ago now and they have two laser cutters which they taught me to use. when i left they said they wouldn't mind if i came back occasionally to make some bits and bobs with their perspex offcuts. so on wednesday i gave them a ring planning on calling in when they weren't very busy in a couple of weeks time but they said i could go down that afternoon so i did and hey presto! i got all the parts cut and etched in an afternoon!

I have some more sentinel pics for you to see



Starting with the base which has been painted up since the last update note the brass screws... shows the detail you can get with laser etching!


sentinel on it's base





a couple of shots of the details



offering the farseer and librarian up on the base for the duel.. i love how this is looking even at this early stage!

Quick note: i'm away now for 2 weeks in scotland from tomorrow... leaving in about 4 hours time (certain family members think 4:30 to 5:00 is a good time to leave) so i get about 3 hours sleep... So the lack of updates over the next 16 days will be because of that, not me being violently killed in a freak accident... though that may happen.. who knows? lol

Look forward to your replies when i get back!

Cheers SoO

you lucky that would be amazing to make my own bases... well have fun in Scotland ^_^

You are a Titan of Painting, to be sure!

Jaw dropping stuff in here - simply amazing!

Wow, some seriously nice work man. Your weathering technique is far and away above most wargaming models. I'm also very jealous of your laser-cut bases! I do have one question; with your Land Raider, did you deliberately mean to do yourself out of having the side exit hatches for gaming purposes?
