Building has actually gone quite well. As far as updates go, there haven't been any because I have been working so hard. But Fear not I am updating tonight. I have much to show and am very happy with progress. I am switching Priority from the warhounds back to the Reavers and Thunderhawk. I realize that I have been focusing very much of my time on the warhounds and as close as the reavers and thunderhawk are to done that I need to knock them out and ship them off....

Sorry, Pony......


I am ery excited about the progress, though, as I have said and will have quite the pic heavy update this evening. Stay tuned.....

Yeah, I gotta focus on one project at a time for a week or so.....



Update soon.....


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Ok, so Update time:


I know it has been several days but I am suffering from some sort of flu. I have been working hard, though, whilst I couldn't get out of the house. I am making much progress on the Warhounds. I have begun the weapons on the second Reaver and am going to be finishing the thunderhawk this week. The second Reaver and the thunderhawk currently have priority. Well, they actually have for several weeks now but the creative juices on the Warhounds has been flowing so I have to buckle down. I will be shipping a Reaver and Thunderhawk in as close to one week as I can possibly get it.


First off:

This guy:



He is going on this:



A 1K Sons Pre-Heresy Mars Pattern Warhound. The Engine Pods aren't on or decorated yet but they will have to hold for a while.

Then there is this:



He is for this:



I have decided that this one will go to it's owner with the head not attached for easier painting. I am working on the design for the engine pods (as you can probably see from all the half erased pencil drawings on them) but am struggling a bit with cohesion with the rest of the main hull. I think I am going to have to go ahead and do more Grapevine Filigree on it even though I didn't want to. I think the overall aesthetic will need it.....

Oh, Brother Paen, Where art thou?




These bad boys will have standard Chaos markings and no extra frills. Except that the heads will be magnetic and there will be an extra set of heads with khorne markings. Except that by khorne markings I mean they will look like this:



That's right, Brother Paen's Warhounds will have Juggernaught Heads, Well, when he wants them to I guess, anyway....

I wanted to get to the making of the purity seals for the Warhounds and the Gatling Blaster for PonyExpress' Reaver tonight but the stomach she is a turnin', boys. Gonna have to go get some Migraine medicine and some dark, dark, silent sleep. or my lunch will make a reappearance....



Tomorrow:

1. The gatling Blaster and finishing the Melta Cannon.
2. Start the engines for the Thunderhawk and finish the Armour plating.

Aftter that I have to see how far I get. I will be posting a lot more this week than I usually do. I know that you have no reason to belive me but it is true ( I hope).......



Well, we will see......









Automatically Appended Next Post:
Oh, and Vik wanted to see the seated pilot types that Dave sent me:


Four sets of hands with controls in them:


Seven or eight different heads with respirators and flight helmets:



And two seated pilots with the upper body of a third that I will have to scuplt into place:




Wonderful....
