Just make sure your school work does not suffer though young lady

Plus if you have finished your Dissertation surly you need bear money

Although I would love to see you're ever improving painting skills tackle this project, will you go the NMM approach with this ?

Hahah yes beer money is needed! But I've got a lot of shifts at work next month so I'm hoping I'll have enough disposable income

Oooooh... I don't know... I don't think I'm good enough!!

So that's the ultras I've started to finish, dwarves to finish, Fulgrim to start, Imperial Fists to start, Grey Knights to buy, Thousand Sons bits to buy... hmmm you know, I don't think I have enough projects on the go lol xxx

A lot of shifts lots of beer money I noticed no remark to your school work suffering though

After seeing your last paint jobs I think you should at least try it, you seem to be improving at a fast rate and the last examples were most impressive

You can never have to many models just ask my misses projects are there to be started

Just a teeny tiny update... Fulgrim has been based as you can see Can't really see from the photo (my bad) but there's a few bits of wreckage strewn around, and two gargoyle- type heads half buried on the ground... trying to be in keeping with the sculpture theme! Going for a red cloak to go with the purple and gold armour xxx

Thats a good start so far

Looking forward to seeing what shade of purple your going to go for.

Ooookay...


SO, I put down the base red on Fulgrim's cloak as you can see below... (bare in mind this was just the very first base layer)



... and then I was reading back over Graham McNeill's 'Fulgrim' for inspiration and he described him wearing an Emerald cloak, and I found that very exciting indeed and thought I'd give it a try! Most Fulgrim models I've seen have had the red cloak so I thought I'd maybe try to make mine stand out a little more? Picture of the green soon but any thoughts on this idea? xxx

Go GREEN it will blend better to be honest, red and purple always reminds me of old Gi Joe cobra toys

P.S. Beastmen are so misunderstood

I went Green!!! Now, the first photo is a bit off... the green isn't that dark... hence the other photos, just to give you a better idea of the colour Did some layering, what do you think? xxx

good looking model.... but i need to see how this develops to say something painting related... the colors atm are not really my cuppa tea

So far so good just one thing I would point out is maybe give a thin highlight on the sharp crease edges, not all the way along just on the bottom or top edges to lift it.

Otherwise it is working nicely with the purple much better than the red

Good progress

I like the green and purple. One of my favorite color combinations is a warm purple and lime green. I think it'll come out ace and looking back over your plog, it would seem you're quite the natural talent

Hi Bebop and thank you!

Heheh I know what you mean, the colour combination reminds me of J-Paint's Harlequin a lot lol

But as I said, purple is Fulgrim's colour so it has to be done! And when its decked out in gold I'm sure you'll like it more haha xxx

Fulgrim is slowly being worked on... I have an exam and other stuff going so apologies for lack of progress.

Once again I am distracted and have decided to paint this Vet as a Thousand Son!

Yay bubble welcome back I had wondered what had happened to Fulgrim,

Great seeing you start on the Thousand Sons, are you going pre heresy red or after blue?

The dark gods are working their magic on you

Hehehe thank you I've started marking out the details on his armour in yellow in prep for the gold

I think I'll do him pre-heresy as I think it suits the model better somehow...

Lovely J-Paint just ordered me the Thousand Sons Aspiring Sorcerer (think that's his name) but I'll def do him blue

NOOOO they are not haha, my love for the Ultras is def rekindled at the mo- reading Graham McNeill's Ultramarines omnibus and it's brilliantly written!!! xxx
