Ja, tie it in with the tattered look, as Nerdy says.
Good job.

Slowly green stuffing myself to death.... dakkanaughts I ask your advise, I’m getting close to finishing the Oblitorator pictured but can’t decide if I should use the banner or not, it’s blutac’d at the minute.
Thoughts ?

Spoiler:

Thanks Doc. That’s it decided then, tattered it will be when I can get myself to green stuff again !

Obliterators are on hold for a bit as they were swallowing too much time.

Some current work in progress, let me know what you think !

Feth yeah!!!

Haha, thanks Nerdy !

So I’m thinking I’ve just the lens to do and some general tidying up left ?
Thoughts ?

Well here it is Dakkanaughts ! My scratch and kit bashed Spartan Landraider finallly finished, I’m guessing I started it 2 years ago , but it may have been more
Did the lenses with Tamiya Amber clear cote as I’m bad at painted lenses and I’m happy enough.
Let me know what you think !

So after months of not interested, im now getting stuff done, more work in progress. The white bits will he lenses eventually. These are nearly done, the pilots for them not so much !

As always comments or criticisms always welcome !

WIP

I said it before and i'll say it again! FETH YEAH!!!

Lol , thanks Nerdy !

Well, I really really messed up the bases on these eBay rescue and then slightly converted Plague knight fellas, it was supposed to be a rotten swamp and just looked ass, so , start again !

Nice work.

Keep on trying, nothing in this hobby that can't be fixed, reused or replaced.

Thanks Doc !

You are of course, correct , I did end up using the bases again, removing the cork/ superglue/ resin water effect was a drama howerer !

One of the most amazing tank paint jobs I have seen. whole tank looks free handed
Love how decals just blend into the tank seamlessly

Thanks mothsniper !
Not my skill as such, more to do with applying the decals on gloss varnish, applying decal solvent and then a coat of Matt varnish.
Kinda procedural rather than artistic but looks the part !
Thanks for stopping by !

Glad I dropped in on this thread, there’s some great painting in here and love those vehicles...

Lovely Stuff dude

Thanks Joe !

Me and Little H had a monster finishing off session (for us! )

Little H is getting much more confident at painting , just not planing ! and I’m pleased the Nugle stuff could finally qualify as finished after I made a total mess of there swamp bases and had to pull them apart and redo them, no swamp this time tho !!!

As always comments and criticism welcome !

And tonight’s WiP, an eBay rescue Landraider, can’t remember who’s resin bits and some magnetised weapon options.
More green stuff to be added.

As always C & C welcome !

What’s that Big H ? Start another conversion of an eBay save into another variant you could just have easily bought off the shelf, take hours and hours doing so, and probably will sit on a shelf and won’t ever get used When it’s done ???

I’m in you handsome bastard !

Can you tell what it will be ?

Those models look fantastic Big H!

Hey thanks for stopping by and commenting Gits !

So the landspeeder guessing game didn’t get too many answers, but no dramas as I really don’t know what Mark it is anyway !
I’m just doing a bit of Blutac posing on the crew and found there isn’t room to fit them with backpacks. So, do I fit tubes and pipes like the GW rhino crew model Or green stuff nurgle style them into the seats???

Either way will be more awkward to paint due to being in the vehicle ?
Any body else do it different? What option would you go for ?

oh, I thought you were being sneaky about building something else with LS parts!

Any of you imaginative hobby ninja types care to throw an idea at my problem above ?
I'd like to have a go at finishing the build and start paint by the weekend

Progress is slow, but that still counts as progress right ?

Awesome & inspiring work. Especially loving the Nurgle stuff. Keep it up!

I am sorry for being AWOL. Your solution for the crew looks perfect to me. Though I think I would maybe have worked out a way for the pipes to come to a panel, so the crew can be removed for painting. Bloody difficult in the space you have though.

I have no idea what varient it is. But I like it.

Going back a bit further, the tanks and the flyers are amazing. The troops all look fantastic, but that samaritan is fantastic.

Thanks dude, to be fair I looked at your Nurgle stuff and face palmed myself ! It’s awesome! Exactly how the 1980’s or 90’s would’ve been if we could paint then !!!

If I’d planned it I should have glued the Pipes to a separate plate. Bang on a good idea but I made it hard

Absolutely nothing done in months but I did base these dog's tonight
Happy to hear your thoughts.

I think the bases are excellent compliments to the paint jobs on the models.
