when i get it i will show, but right now im going to update with pics!

Here you are fellas, and btw the guy in my avatar i drew is purposly black because i plan on making him ( just like the cybergitz ) that way he can be my avatar, but not yet.

First guy is final touches to Lord Penn, i added his base and a stone on his belt, he'll be painted tomorrow
Second is a very wip Runner. My idea for him is that if the group is ambushed while carrying treasure/stones, they would give it to him and he would run, while the rest of the group make sure he stays alive
Third is wip of V's body

no as to the request of a german who asked to remain annonymous-

now i wont tell you what your seeing here, but i can say it is an ig representing me holding a paintbrush, and as i stated before he WILL be made, and a cooler looking wolf will go on his shoulder pad

i am honestly thinking your GS work needs more time... you do work too thick..what do you use for sculting tools? i use dentist tools...also i have baught me a nailremovingthingy witha slicone tip...havent used it yet but the idea is it is flexible and can push the GS better... maybe a change of tools could help you...is that azombie head on the runner... nice choice there...with the mask it is a cool idea...and who does not love a guy with two pistols^^

the swordman looks promising...and again...please full pic of avatar!

now, as to the request of a german who asked to remain annonymous-

lol

yea the gs sucks, which is why i need to get that stuff off! I plan on buying minicolor shapers to help me with that, and yes it is the dieing head from zombies, i love the facial features on it and if i dont show the dead mouth i think it should lookg good, and vik i did post a picture of the avatar its right above your post!

yuo saw it already!

don´t get too down by my GS comment...i have very long tried to avoid that stuff completly...i am currently learning its ways...and i mean ways...

what i have come to undewrstand is the curing time... let it sit for a while after aplying it to the mini... then using some silicone means of tool push or tear it the way you want... lubbed enough it will do as you really want to...

shortly i want to try this fella here for GS work..
sorry for the gross pic^^ it is ugly and big^^ but these things are dead cheap compared to the penshaper stuff...and if you deem it too big a form...just cut it in shape...

dont wory vik im not down about the comment, i know im relitivley bad at gs ing which is why im practicing, and as much as i want a nice pink shaper, i think the 20$ for more than a few of 'em should be good enough for me

ok... i tend to forget that others might be not so broke as i am^^ so good tools is always a good start... and for those who are not afraid to practise there is the road to success...at first i even didn´t get the mixing right...so now that i have a good methide for that the sculpting process gets better too...

well mate i think i am off for tonight/morning^^

cheers, see you later!

see ya man, and no i dont have $ growing off of trees, its just i have a certain amount i can spend on minis, and either i buy empire battalion and wizards or battalion and sculpters, so i think wizards can waite untill christmas

Man, I want an empire batallion box too, and a dwarf battalion...no, I don't need more armies...but I want them...no you have too many half-assed armis...waaaah

guess what stein im the saame way, and for my next mordheim warband or army it will be dwarves and chaos dwarves, so dont you wory son i'll get to em eventually

only reason why im starting with empire is because of the bits to be used in 40k

hmmm maybie since im no good at gs i can make gs molds of cloaks that way i can pop em in and push those around as i please

for cloaks... have you considered using PVA soaked tissue or even cloth? definatly would help you to make a thin start...after that it would even be doable to GS a surface over the dryied cloak...

and yeah... the plastic crack has a tendency to creep upon you... it is too easy to dream up a new army... although i am no man for dwarves... but something like bretonian army or even a skaven one wold be a nice thing...well my dreams soar free...

I have a disease. It's called Minicolitis, It is where i collect too many miniatures. And as far as I know, it is un-curable.

And Vik, I guess that's ok, because this is what Dwarfs think of shoddy human craftsmanship.


In fact, in the Dwarf language, their word for "shoddy" is the same as their word for "man-made" lol

rofl... is that really a GW hand? or did you "customized" it?

the bruztal fact is this desease spreads and even brings pweteritis too and styrenegitis and what not other illness with it...

That is actually from the Avatars of War Dwarf Bezerkers box set. WOnderful, multi-part plastic miniatures IMHO Better than the GW minis, but they mix well.
ANd LOL, yes those other diseases come right along with it!

ah so avatar makes hands a bit more ...for lack of a better term...mature...^^

Just that hand (for the slayers) and the beer-mug holding hand

ah so i see... what i just seen here too... they even did not include niples on the dwarves... there must be no realtion at all to GW sculpters/designer...

Yep, nipples-a-plenty! You can see nipples on the top right cheat in the pic. The bare chests of muscle seem to remind me of an old-time boxer, so it fits the Dwarf look IMO. The Bare chests and arms are the perfect canvas for painting tattoo work too. It's just too bad that the beards cover them up.

now...who ever would want clean shaven dwarfs?

ooo barenuckel boxing dwarfs! with a big mustache bill the butcher style would be an awsome diarama!

well guys in 2 hours im headed to GW so i plan on starting on Penn today

i wondered alredy seeing you so early on...^^

wha?

welll it is usualy around 0:00 CET when i see you around...

ahh, btw guys i'll post my warband so far online, i played 3 games today, 2 being 1v1 i lost both but gained alot of xp anyway, the third was 1v1v1v1 and it was like 2 1v1's and i beat my side although ended up running away, gained some for that. Overall BEST GAMING I EVER HAD, Mordheim is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than 40k or fantasy imo, also i changed V, now he has 2 swords, and The Runner did his job in the 4 way game by running in the middle, getting the stones, and running away, so if you cannot tell by poor grammer, i am exited so im going to build

sounds cool...i like mordheim and necromunda for the ongoing campaingn setting... making great individual charcters and seeing them grow...i think this is the best thing! being an old rpg boy...^^

by the way... your swordman V reminds me a bit of citizen V of the thunderbirds...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizen_V#Baron_Helmut_Zemo

any connection to the thunderbirds is unintentional, im more refering to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_for_Vendetta this V

oh i did know that but with the swords i was thinking that citizen V would aply too... as far as i recall V only used daggers...

yea..

For working with green stuff try using some size 0 clay shapers. I got a set for about $15 dollars, Also. don't be afraid to use a bit of water. It keeps the GS from sticking to the shaping tool.

Any luck with the light box?

Take care
