DROP EM


Also lads who joined I am posting a recommended completion guide. This is just so you have more events on your calendar and don't forget you have a comp that you joined. Less walks of shame are needed!

2/7/13 Have your model completely built, and primed
9/7/13 Have your model begin on the painting tree
16/7/13 Finish your model including base and show results.


Again these are just a sample method I know many of us prefer anarchy of structure, but for those that can stick to a deadline this is a good method to do it.

I think I'll follow that plan pretty closely! Thanks panda!

It's all about marketing, dude! It's not a boring and humble Rhino...

It's a study of a blazing emblem of the Imperium! The universe's never tiring pack horse! Herald of war, deliverer of judgement. A trusty mechanical beast that's tread the surface of thousands of worlds, carrying the Emperor's finest so they can execute His will!

Now that... that is how you up sell.

brilliant speech mate! I see you are well known in the field of marketing then?

Haha, thanks mate! Words are kind of a hobby of mine but it's not a career or anything yet.

Well Vik if you read the first page.... it would be if it has a base!

Why thank you, sir! What a lovely compliment!

well I am a business administrator, so I should know^^

Oooh, that sounds exciting, what does that entail?

well basically it´s marketing... getting the stuff you are assigned to sell to the customer...and helping the sales heinis to do it like they should...

I recently moved on and now I am trying to become a nursery nurse...cause I hate numbers.. and marketing is sadly all about numbers...

Nice one! That's a big job change bit I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

On topic: I'm going to try and put some flesh on my Monstrous Creature tonight!

CAFFEINE FUELED TURBO PROGRESS! RAWR!

Honestly I'm not very happy with it right now but I've got my fingers crossed that it'll come together if I keep going. Muscle, flesh, fat, skin, muscle, flesh, fat, skin, muscle, flesh... fa... Zzzzz!

Well, you know I have wip pics as I went along to make the tanks I converted or made from scratch, but mine are built at present already, and I am trying to catch up on other things. I wonder if I presented the wips and such if they would count?

Oh and I added to the story

A few nice WIPs appearing now people

Great idea from Panda with the recommended timeline - plug the dates in your calendars and set your alerts...

Sleep deprivation and too much caffeine! Project is coming along though...

Right wasn't sure what I was doing for this round but I've managed to find something. Sadly the hobby budget is a bit lacking at the moment so I had a look in the spares box and found this Hellbrute that came with a load of random miniatures off ebay. I know he isn't really a tank but as walkers and big monsters are allowed I figured he would be an ok entry. I had to soak him in Dettol and give him a scrub first then I did some minor conversions. I got rid of the multi melta and added some las-cannon barrels from a razorback kit. A couple of old bolt pistols were filled down and stuck underneath his power fist to be a twin linked bolter. the original head was replaced with an old chaos warrior head and one of the Hellbrute's chains was cut off and repositioned. I primed him before I took the WIP photos which was probably a bad idea as I'm not sure the details stand out now.

Great work on that brute.

Yay, well if it isn't painted your fine!

at selvagio... now that is truly something new.... very cool!
