Yea sorry about that, we have been enjoying the fact that we have a car and the long weekend, I do have a few small updates but nothing major. i also am posting some of my skaven. These are the first few models i ver painted but there are no conversions. These were painted about 2 years ago when i started the hobby, after the skaven were done i didn't touch the stuff again until this blog started and i made the jump to orks. my ork painting is slow coming as i have not found a suitable primer i like here in turkey. i Have 2 more to try so hopefully one will do the the trick so i can start painting up some boys this week.
Added Guns and power supply/wires to the bike, gonna add some armor and rivets and call this one done.
Start of a dred, not loving it so some changes to come.
Bent some track, going to be the front end of another "bike" using a small swivel wheel for the rear, may have the "rider" standing or laying in a prone position, not sure yet.
Scratch built claw/arm for dred
Now for the Skaven
Obviously not all the skaven but all for now, more updated by weeks end (pinkie swear)
Thanks Evil, As for the big guy, that was my very first model ever and i was limited to the foundation paints and washs as thats all i had at the time. I agree its flat, i may go back and touch it up now that i have a better idea of what i am doing and more selection of paints and such.
