Thank you very much, everyone. I am glad you like them. It was a cool experience.

Viterbi, Prime is from Wizkids' Deep Cuts line. They recently came out with four Transformers models, Prime, Megatron, Bumblebee, and Starscream.

Thanks for the info! They don't seem to have crossed the atlantic yet, but I'll keep a lookout at online stores and my FLGS to see, if they arrive.

I appreciate the fact that they are oldschool.....like me . 80’s transformers are better than 2000s every day.

Great Mushroom Man youwashock.

Cheers,

CB

The mushroom looks like a fungi to paint. Amazing work.

Thank you, Cap'n.

Nev, you aren't wrong. And, thank you.

Slow, slow week. Kids sick. No time for love (or paint), Dr. Jones. But, I did get this phase of project Dread wrapped up.







All set for priming. Hope to paint soon. Was also feeling inspired to finish the Avatar conversion. We'll see what happens. Thanks for looking!

That's some nice looking magnetisation there

Nice work on the magnets. Hope your kids get well soon!

Dread is looking very promising!

Get Well Soon to the mini YouWaShocks...

Nice Swiss Army Dreadnought you have there. Here's hoping the sickness wraps up quickly!

Dread looks like it will be ready for any situation. Take care.

All the gunz! I love the dreadnaught's many options.

The twin auto cannons always was my favorite image of the dreadnought. Probably because of the Robotech/Battletech vibe.

Thanks, everybody!

Yeah, Theo. The "Rifleman" is my favorite look, too.

So, the kids are doing better, but now I am sick. Figures. Anyway, soldiering on. With a little sculpting because why paint when you can work on something else...

First, the Avatar conversion is just about done. When it will be painted, who knows, but I can prime and be satisfied with that for a bit.







And a rework on something I made and never painted around 10 years ago. Why? Because fudge it, I never liked the old flames, and if this thing ever gets painted, it wasn't going to happen as it was before. Now, it's a strong maybe.



May try to paint tonight, depending on how I feel. Thanks for the well-wishes for the kids. Thanks for looking!

Avatar looks fearsome, you'll make it look pretty whenever you get around to it!

Thanks, MegaDave. Appreciate the vote of confidence. Was able to paint a little.





Still a ways to go, but moving forward. Thanks for looking!

Some great modelling work you've been doing!

Magnets are always a good choice. I kind of dislike that step (mainly because I always get super glue all over my fingers etc.), but it's worth it in the end.
My favorite configuration is the rifleman dread with two autocannons. A classic choice.

The greenstuff work on the avatar looks neat.

Are there going to be some more awesome flames on those helmets and shoulder pads?

Yes! And then no flames for a while.

Thanks for the comment!

Love the Reiver helmets on the Intercessors, those marines will look great, nice start on the flames!

Flames never die. Those Reiver heads look pretty nice on those properly armoured bodies, actually.

Thanks, Sherrypie, Viterbi.

The Reiver helmets are almost 2 X-treme, but I love them.

A little more Dread progress.



Thanks for looking!

Good first steps!

Looking good so far.

Thanks, guys!

Avatar is primed. I will have to go back and see how long ago I started this build, but it has been a while, and for a good deal of that time, the only thing to finish has been the sword hilts. This hobby can be funny that way. Inspiration hits, work begins, attention wavers, doubt ties your hands, and the next thing you know you are up to your buttcheeks in unfinished projects. Worked on the lower Dread and primed Ainoa.



Current priorities are finishing the LotD, Belial, and the Dread. Thanks for looking!

That avatar looks really nice. It's much more substantial, I think, than the FW version, which has always struck me as too thin.

Female warrior in front is probably NSFW once you put color on her
Excited to see the avatar painted up. Is it coincidence that a thread popped up on dakka and asked how to kill, just as you start painting it?

Avatar is taking shape nicely! Surprised to see more people don't use it as such.

Eager for the dready as well. Love me some magnatised dread weapon options!

Thank you! Feels very good to have come this far on it.

Ainoa is just this side of SFW.

This is taking a while, but at least the flames are done and Centurius has finally found his legs.



Thanks for looking!

Oooh love the bright flames you've achieved!

Centurious is coming along nicely

Those LOTD look fantastic, what’s your flame recipe? It always looks so effective and realistic. Loving Centurious’ purple face, all those flames would do that to you I guess!

Belial, the Avatar and Shooty Dread are looking great too. What are your plans for the Avatars scheme?
