That absolutely rules. The tainted camo came out awesome, Gits. As did his hinged chainswords. Did you do anything fancy with the engines on the jump pack?

I will be doing OSL in the jets... I just forgot. But, it wouldn't really show up in any of these pics anyway.

That should look dope. Probably should've posted in your own blog. I tend to make comments in this one before realizing that I'm in the marine swap thread. Regardless, I really like him. You did a fantastic job.

Hello everybody. First post in a very long time.
Decided to offer up my abilities to anyone who's wanting to swap some marines, or just have one of their own things painted.
I'm proficient at painting the following:
Grey Knights
Minotaurs
Nurgle Chaos Marines (The Purge)
Homebrew IG (similar to DKOK)
I use an airbrush, so OSL and gradient power weapons are not a problem. If anyone's interested, please let me know. I'm trying to stretch myself and work on painting other chapters or other armies
Also hope to get a comprehensive blog up and running on here soon, so if you do want me to paint something for you, progress pics will probably go there, and finalized pics here.
Here's pictures of my latest stuff. Let me know on here or via PM if interested.

Hey guys, I hope I'm not too late to the party!
Here's a DA I painted recently, I guess I'm pretty happy with the outcome since I just began painting miniatures and wargaming less than a month ago. I tried to do a little freehanded laurels on his helmet which actually turned out pretty well!
There's also an alternate color scheme of Red/black/gold that I tried out. Not terrible, he was my very first miniature. If anybody wants a swap, or one of my guys, let me know!

Sure Space Wolves Land Raider Pilot

Hey all,
I would also like to be part of this officially (got a GMS deal "unofficially" with Gitsplitta)
Check link in sig for my two current armies that I work on. In short it`s:
1) 13th Company themed Space Wolves army
2) Night Lords & Word Bearers
Both are heavily OOP/vintage
Personally I would like some a Possesed squad with a healthy mix of different chapters/companies, but other ideas are welcomed. So if anyone are interested please let me know, I`m up for the challenge

I honestly haven't a clue haha. I posted on here wanting to give rather than receive. Whatever you think would be appropriate is fine by me. What are you looking for? I got plenty of FW bits, bodies, and funderful things.
What are you needing my friend?

Hey Git,
Would you like to do a swap with me? This thread seems to be slowly dying, unfortunately. We need to keep it alive, it's a fantastic idea!

I'd love to Pat, but I'm still 3 minis behind to people that have been waiting a very, very long time. Once I'm in the clear, I'll put up a notice here and you can contact me.

Knightley and Gitsplitta have some amazing stuff.
I'm hoping to get some stuff done and get some pics soon. It's not really in the same ball park but that's okay.

It certainly is Rotgut. The idea isn't that we're all trading minis of the same quality... it's that were all doing our best, whatever that happens to be.

GitSplitta's marine is 95% done. I'm really happy with how this color scheme turned out, it's something i've always wanted to try. There's a few areas to touch up so he can look pretty on the battlefield, but other than that, he's ready for his journey to begin!

Party-colored is NOT an easy paint scheme. Very nicely done!
(For those you you who are feeling slighted because I still owe you your marine... Patmandude agreed to take a marine I'd already painted in trade. It's an apothecary I did several years ago that just doesn't fit in with any of the versions of my army. I just need to fix an arm and he's good to go.)

Here's the fig I'm dressing up for Patmandude. I'm still working on the arm and the OSL on the plasma will go easier if it's not attached. Think it'll be a pretty cool upgrade though. His eyes still need to be done, I just got done blacking them out.
Little gangsta-medic action goin' on.

The marine swap has been fun and Ive been itching to really get back into it.
So to Leon, Patmandude, and anyone else I am so game. I got regular and some terminators that I offer up with a fun assortment of weaponry.
@Graven I havent forgotten about your trade offer of random bits for random bits. I just have no real need for random bits as my army is in wind-down mode. Automatically Appended Next Post: Oh forgot a pic to present some of my better work, check my thread in my sig for the full run of things.

All-right... Patmandude's apothecary is done. Fun little diversion. As much as I like to rescue old figures, it's funny that I finally rescued one of my own.
I should have made the plasma a different color... it blends right in with the rest of the figure! But... I think I'm getting better at it. I usually make sure to play a game with my trades before I send them off so they can be truly classified as full Mantis Warriors. However... this guy is an old veteran of many conflicts. I figured taking a pic with him and some of his newest brethren would be good enough.
