great to see your back to posting this thread on dakka again

Amazing work so far. I hadn't seen the Pig Iron backpacks in action before, they look great.

Great Work
Army Looks Fantastic

Thanks for the feedback guys!
Update time again with my Chimeras. I've gotten round to finishing the main base colour using Gryphon Sepia wash over two thin coats of Dheneb Stone. Once this was dry I then lightly drybrushed and dusted with Dheneb Stone again. I'm pleased with how they turned out considering I've been using a brush. I'm looking into getting an airbrush for my birthday in March next year. Anyway, I also managed to finish the tracks on one as well using a Charadon Granite drybrush over a black primer and then weathered with FW Dark Earth weathering powder. I also experimented with the powder on the tread plates on top of the track guards and bits on the sides;





and a group shot so far with a couple of Vanquishers;

Glad you decided not to sell the army in the end- its way too good for that. I'm really liking how your vehicles are coming on, will they be receiving the same camo treatment as the men, or just tiger stripes?

As an aside, I just noticed your thunderer conversion- any chance on a close up and talkthrough what you did?

Awesome looking army! Very desert storm. Loving the buggy's and that's a brilliant use of the Vindicare Assassin - I didn't even see him the first time I looked.

I really have no idea how I missed this thread until now, but I am floored by your work...

I am going to try your scheme out today on a couple Elysians to see if it will work...

I can't wait to see more of this project

For the love of God!
They look like America soldiers in Afganistan!
I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not...
But at least I'm sure that they are one of the nicest desert camos I have seen!

I don't know how I've missed this blog. Great job on the infantry and the attention to detail on the tanks will most definitely pay off. Keep up the great work I'll be watching this from now on.

Excellent work, keep it up.

feth that's some mad painting right there! AMAZING CAMO as well!!!!

Wow amazing I love this army I can imagine them holding the line against thaasands of orks whilst coldplay- the scientist is playing.

The only thing that sucks about that is your use of the word "Coldplay".

Change it to Disturbed's "Indestructable" and you're redeemed

Nah, it's the drama effect. Things are so much more horrible if a slow song is playing during carnage. For further study see Gears of War Mad World.

Cheers guys! Managed to get some detailing done on the lenses and aquilas. Also played around with the FW weathering powders. Still work to do on the hull heavy flamers and co-axial stubbers. I wish my decals would show up as this is holding me back from completing these guys.
