Makin' progress...

Magic boi done

That looks awesome QAR, now I post a WIP of my pre school crayola art

Ooh nice take on those frag launchers Rybrook, the yellowy sandbagish colour works really well.

QAR - awesome work as always, that base is fantastic as is the model on top of it

That LR looks decent! Im so impatient when it comes to doing vehicles that I very rarely do them. Something I am planning to change next year.

I went with that as a heavy leather/Kevlar type enclosure with repackable charges (well at least till they get blown off), looking at various modern tanks the smoke launchers have a protective cover with a little chain so why not.

Thanks, just have to sort the muzzle burn and the angel wings.

I've managed to mostly finish a couple of harlequins:



I'm using these models to practice my NMM skills. I still have a long way to go, I think. Also, they look much better in real life than in the zoomed-in pics in the gallery.

That top harlequin is giving me an inquisitor vibe for some reason - must be the colours.

Here's another WIP, I have assembled the pintle mount and commander, added the comms array and auto launchers.
Still have a bit more to do but should be able to finish it on time.

Here's my Chaos Sorceror so far.

I just have to finish the base and put a Nightlords decal on his shoulder armor.

Looking good Rybrook

I have finished the red on mine, just metallics and details to sort out now.

The Chaos Sorcerer is finished!

Well since my order came too late for November's comp, it's good luck that this month is an open theme . My entry pics:

Calling her done. With the holidays quick approaching, I don't expect much more time to hobby so I'm getting this in early this time (for once!)

Nice work DV8 almost looks like its painted on a canvas but 3D

Wonderful DV8.

I am calling my submission finished.








As always there has been no photoshopping or color adjustments, just cropping to center the images.

Cheers,

Very nice work everyone. We’ve got about a week left to go, so better start wrapping up. Unless you want to get started, and see if you can race a Christmas present from tree to table before the year ends.

@Para: You have any theme ideas to start the new year off right?

Almost done with my entry, started the baseing.

Finished just in time for Christmas

I'm going to paint these elves this month

progress so far

Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas, I finally got the chance to take some photos among the preparations for Christmas. I have to say, this experience has been eye opening, scale model cars aren't easy and I really didn't expect the amount of varnishing and sanding I did. Probably not my best work and I couldn't get a photo of the interior, but it's something different!

A friend on mine is in the rivet-counting scale model crowd, so I have some appreciation of the work that goes into model cars. I have to say I’m quite impressed in what you have there. Kudos.

My Canoness is nearly done, hopefully I can cross the finish line on her before the end of the year:

Progress is being made!




Catchya,

Happy Holidays folks. Here's a WIP, head etc. still very much a mess and I didn't even come up with a colour scheme for the space cat yet, but I think/hope I'll get them done in time:

Here is my submission for December.

Hey, I didn't see myself in the list of entrants, did I do something wrong?

Probably not. Generally I do one update about a week in to catch the initial entrants, and one close to the end (which I should do now-ish). Might be more depending on how busy life is. If you see me post something along the lines of “OP is updated” after you posted your entry and you are not there, then I screwed up and you can slap me to remind me to fix it. At the end of the month when I’m wrapping up the thread and making the vote one I do go through every post and make sure I have everyone. So even if you enter last second and never make it into the OP, you still get in the vote thread.

Edit:
OP is updated to this point

Anyone got theme suggestions for January? I'll see about getting a poll sorted tomorrow.

Maybe one about fresh starts, new beginnings, or recruits?
