The H20 was borrowed from me, by the way... I found it in a local hardware store for $3.99
Works like a charm on any kind of foam...
Anyhoo, my Terminator Chaplain is almost done, all that remains are some purity seals and other such tidbits. I really love the paintjob that I did for this guy, so I'm gonna post up pics as soon as I can. For now, life is taking its toll on my spare time. (Curse you Chemistry!!! Curse you again and again!!!)

Here are some conversions that I did recently-ish. They're Scouts wielding sawn-off shotguns. This way, I can add the combat blades as well, and they can count as either shotguns or Boltpistols depending on what flavor of fail I want my Scouts to be equipped with at any given time.
This fella has his arms magnetized so he can be equipped with a Heavy Bolter if I want.
This one has a magazine glued to the side of the shotgun. Double the ammunition-y goodness!
The Scout Sarge. No shotgun for him. There weren't enough included. S'okay though. He gets more attacks this way, and has a higher BS, so I want him to be a slightly more precision oriented model...
And yes, they still lack heads. I'm a procrastinator and I feel like fielding them without heads...
(You also might notice that I shaved the codpieces down. This is a pet peeve of mine. They just look funny...)

I just got two gun drones finished. They didn't turn out as well as my Shas'o with the highlighting, but they are better than my FWs
The pics I took weren't too good. In the back, its kind of hard to see, but to put more brown on it I colored the vent brown with orange on the inside.

Don't you have any metallic paint? A splash or two of metallics on that thing might make it a bit more mechanical looking.
Edit: NVM, I see the antenna tips there. Although I still think it needs a little more metallic paint.

I could still do a little work on it. Maybe I'll actually try and highlight the inner workings, that was the original plan, but I didn't have time for it.

One of my Tac Marines. This pic was one of the first good-ish miniature pics I ever took.
Edit: Gotta learn to re-size those pics...

Actually, I think it looks fine :| Much better than the uber-macro shots of your vet sarge you had up earlier. If you make em too much smaller you wont be able to see all the detail.

That was taken like, three months ago. One of the first "good" pics I ever took of my minis...
It isn't even recent...
But if you want recent, boy have we got a show for you!
As soon as Photobucket uploads my pics...
Edit: Ok! Had a bit of trouble with Photobucket, but things worked out. So without further ado, I present to you my Terminator Chaplain!
So, that's that!

Looks pretty good. Hes really shiny, so its hard to see some of the detail...
but from the bits I can see clearly, i would say youve outdone yourself. 
Is he still WIP? (just wondering, as the bullet casings are still black, and the wingaling on his chest seems to be highlighted only on one side.  ) Good work.

They're going okay. I've put them on hold until I decide how I want to run them. Or rather, how dad wants to run them.
I'm not sure yet.

Keep it up guys, your stuff looks awesome, especially the tau! 
although i have to ask, did you ever convert and paint a tau battlesuit with two drones pinned into the base etc, and then sell it on ebay?

That's kind of wierd. I never saw anything like my scheme before except once, someone esle put green in the the cracks, but they didn't add any brown to their scheme like I did.
Also, I must credit my brother Corndoggy for giving me the idea about the brown, it really livens up the figures.

Hey, Bringer, I forgot to compliment you on your Shas'o... It's done exceptionally well!
Just felt like saying that.
These are a couple urban bases I made a while back. I plan to use them for my as-yet-to-be-assembled Assault squad...

They look really nice.
To keep you yellow paint in the lines, you could get a card or something and paint against it so you have a nice crisp line.

Oh? I use a Badab Black wash (actually, a Badab Black was equivalent...) on them already. Actually, not on the one I posted there... Maybe these will better illustrate what I mean...
Bringer, is that going to be a Tau power generator? Cuz they have those tall ones that look like squashes, from DoW, remember?
It looks like the IG power generator, kinda... Yah.
Anyhoo.
