I LOVE your paint style! Bright and clean, but so much depth. Really fantastic log all around, keep it up!

Glad to see you like the Leman Russ

Almost forgot to post this one:
Banner bearer:

I love the free hand on that banner! Not to mention the brick base for your models

Thanks!

Here is the Yarrick conversion all painted up:



This is it for August..

To finish list for September:

- 2 Objectives and Relic counter
- Leman Russ Eradicator
- Ogryns
- Commissar Leman Russ Executioner

See you in September!

Great work on Yarrik, and that banner is nothing short of epic. Looking forward to seeing what you are doing with ogyrn.

You have on of the cleanest painting styles I've ever seen, and your highlighting is superb. It's there, and it sets off the model, but it's not glaring. I love your painting.

hey thanks dudes!

Got 1 w.i.p. shot of one of the objective markers,
Statue!:

Digging the objective marker! Love the dog on the base
and the painting on the Yarrick commissar conversion is really really good, anyway we can get some more upclose pictures of him?

Objective marker looking nice, almost an Objective Marxist ;D

What's this?

that looks to be a oger model being converted into an ogryn looking forward to it

Ogryn update:

Banner bearer with Long-sleeve T:



And next step is some armour:



Next step is making the helmets. I'm going for the same style as the winter militia helmets the Carapace armoured vets have.

Man, I love every update of yours. Such precision work and you never fail to impress me!

That ogryn is looking awesome, some excellent sculpting work there.

Everything shown is amazing, superb scratchbuilding and great painting. Inspiring.

Something about the ogryn's armor, I think its the modular thigh plates, makes me think he's an EOD tech.

Ogryn bomb disposal... That'd be amusing to see, but a mess to clean up.

Those look awesome, my friend! Can't wait to see what you do with the helmets

That would explain the Ogryn bone'eads.

Looking cool!

How did you make the armor for the body? Is it just layers of greenstuff/puddy, any tips on making something like that? How to lay it on the model, etc.

Yes, it is layers of putty. I press it on the model about as thick as I want the armour to be, and then I cut it to size.

Here is some W.I.P. shots of the other 3 Ogryns:



P.s.

How do I change the title of this log? so that it shows in the forum list?

Awesome looking trio! Can't wait to see the banner bearer take shape.

Re. Changing the title, you simply hit the edit button on your very first post of this blog and you can change it from there. Took me forever to figure it out as well..

Ah there we go! Thanks Cain!

An interesting base for helmeted Ogryns are the Iron Guts heads. I used them for my guard by adding gas masks.

Thanks for the tip, but I am going for something a little less fantasy.
Here is what I'm working on at the moment. (The middle one needs a fur hat still, because it looks like a helmet now )



Leman Russ Eradicator is coming along nicely as well, same goes for the objective markers. Pictures soon!

this new project of converting ogres... it will stay in my long term box for inspiration!!! very good progress!

Thanks Viktor!

More progress:

Those guys look fantastic. Can't help but think you should do one up like the Heavy from Team Fortress 2, I'm afraid!

Here it is on the model:

So awesome!
How did you build the weapon?
