Not yet, but hey, it's got a long way to go...

Very true but please let me know in case any problems

Same here, not yet but not expecting it yet given time of year and distance.

Keep at the orks dude, looking great.

Arrived!

Good morning Dakka!

Happy Holiday’s to all!

I hope that everyone in enjoying their festive season. I had a very interesting holiday or playing some Space Marine on my Xbox 360 and crying other the horror of my gaming status.

There is only five months until Armies on Parade and I am starting to feel the itch of competition. You see in the holiday months of Oct-Dec I start to hold my projects and take a break because there are so many things to do; shop, travel, game, etc. Now that the festivities are almost complete with the coming of the New Year, I hope I get myself even more motivated to accomplishing my goal.

I have some ideas what I am going to do with the battle board this year. I do realize that I will not be making a massive one as I did with the Sisters project. The Orks I plan on taking with me to Memphis’s Gamesday if I win so I need the board to be portable. As much as I loved the sister’s battle board, it was just too big to move around without damaging it.

Speaking of the Sister’s Battle board, if I did not mention this before, I donated it to the Cottman Ave Games Workshop in Philadelphia PA which they use often to battle on.

OK guys, I need to get to work and will update when I am able.

PS

I had confirmed with all donators that packages were received or are within customs waiting for pickup.. Sorry for that part.

If you guys want you can post pics of you all rocking the shirts on the page. I do not think anyone will mind 

I'll have to do that! I just wore it so I have to clean it though.

Guess what day it is!

Vehicles!!

Excellent Cam!!

I was still a little worried that I put the shipping information in wrong. I know that I had a little trouble discerning the info that you gave me when I was applying it to the customs form. Ugh !

Now that your confirmation is official I will now fill out the paper work for the donation from the Dakka Community and will provide confirmations to the donators of this project

More battle wagon will be up tonight and I will also try to sketch plans for the Ork battle board.

I am halfway there the project so once the Vehicles complete, one thanks to Cam, and the Battlewagon I will then move on to Deff Dreads and Characters.

Great work, lovely orange, nice weathering.

Thank you Cam

I am working on the orange on the battle wagon first, working in each section individually because of how large the areas are. I how started the weathering/ battle damage so that I may also try out some of my rust powders that I have never used before.

Do not worry, there will be more added to the wagon once I completed the main painting.

That is awesome! I hadn't even thought of using the Rust that way, I've been using it as more of a Rust drip down the side sof things.

Beautiful work.

Looking good!

Waiting for wash to dry

I really like that scheme and I think I know why...



Looking great, will be good to see everything completed.

Very cool step by step. Looking great.

Please do not panic or laugh but last evening primed models and I just realized that they are still outside underneath around 2 to 4 inches of snow… this is problematic

I wouldn't think it would actually effect the models assuming the primer is dry before the snow hits it. Bring em in from the cold and they should be ok. I've left mine in rain after a prime session before with no ill effects.

So how did they fair? How you doing?

Solid block of ice lol

They are still outside I have to break them out when it's not as bitter cold out there.
