All the special weapons built now! Just need to slap some paint on them

Tom

damn, thats some nice models. Really like the paint jobs. It's good to see. Also - liking your foam tray/holder desk majig thingy, That would stop me losing parts... hmm where's my neoprene...

Hi, thanks, that is just one of these: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat470003a&prodId=prod990078a bit over priced but good for doing stuff whilst watching tv

Could we get some close-ups of the sniper armed ones, please? I wonder what they look like when armed.

Pretty damn impressive stuff, I'd say. I really like the way you've painted the visors, the glass definitely looks the part.

Nice, but the paint has gone on a little too thick in some places, the first guy's Imperial Aquila on his shoulder looks a bit blotchy as a result.

Thanks guys

Gonna try and get another five finished today or tomorrow, so will have the close ups of the sniper then.

Tom

Having had the "pleasure" (yeah right) of trying to give my Elysians special weapons, i feel your pain dude!

Keep up the great work.

Also would anyone like a step by step tutorial on how I do the basic squads?

Just ten more 'til I've finished all the infantry

The next 5 I am working on today don't have any snipers in Scrazza, but the last five will have 2. There is one above but he isn't the most dynamic ever

Another squad done and I have almost finished another squad too which should be done tonight or tomorrow.

Tom

These guys remind me of Robocop... Very good.

lol I hadn't thought of that

Just been working out how to do the decals, as I need to do them on the whole army

I gotta ask, on the elysians, how did you do those bases? It seems like you flocked them first.

Goddamn if my Elysians turn out this well I'll be one happy camper

Can't wait to see some Valkyries and Tauros trucks. Good luck!

A built a little something...



Gonna build 2 more of these before I crack out the airbrush

Tom

Those Elysians look great imo.

Very nice work. I'm liking that power fist.

Thanks a lot

These are the last five elysian troops. I need to do all the transfers next! I have started on building a second venator, I will paint all three at the same time.


I have handed my Uni stuff in so now I should be pumping out a lot more models!

Just wanted to say these look great mate, makes me wanna grab some for myself to try out! Might have to steal some ideas for my own colour schemes too :p

Also would anyone like a step by step tutorial on how I do the basic squads?

I'd take that offer!

How much money are you getting from this commission?

Venators built and ready for priming!

Looking forward to seeing them painted its so tempting to get one of them lol but so many projects already on the go.

I'm sorry, but I had to do this

You could make a diorama of a Tauros Venator escort getting attacked by Tau/Kroot on a Moon Base.

Hope you didn't get too inspired, or I'll have to wait longer

As for the actual thread, good job on those venators, I tried to help my friend to do one, and it was ing hard.

Are the alternative weapons magnetised or do they clip in?

Dont worry slugga, my minds fixated on my current projects and so is my money haha

Dan

I was gonna magnetise, but they simply slot in so no need

Wow, someone has someone cash :d

Hey, I see you had the same idea to put the searchlight on the main turret instead of on the lascannon as suggested by the forgeworld instructions!

Is there any chance we can get a shot of the suspension works? I'm curious to see if I managed to build my own Tauros correctly or not, as those darned parts were so fiddly....
