Wow, I'm blown away by the level of painting and modelling as always, that Trygon looks amazing. I cant wait for more updates, keep up the great work.

Update for the trukks, pics of before and after oil wash cleanup. Hope to get these models finished within a fee days (painting time allowing). So will post pics up as soon as they are done.

Also to update (tomorrow) are a couple of pics of Tyranid Warriors in the same colour scheme as the Trygon.

Couple of pics, the trukks are nearly done now. If all goes to plan they will be finished by Tuesday and uploaded.

Warboss in mega armour hopefully finished by end of next week.

So far this is how he looks.

Few bits to still do and finish off but he is getting there.

Finished painting for the day, this is the result. Few bits to finish off and tidy up tomorrow.

Just another view of Larog

My mind is blown!!! that's so awesome, have you airbrushed the armour? it looks fantastic, cant wait to see more, great job.

Hi Ectus, yes. The armour is airbrushed, starting from a black undercoat and gradually working from a dark grey through to an almost white to finish. I have never really highlighted black with an airbrush before, as my previous army was Tau. So was quite happy with how this came out.

Thanks for the kind words mate, looking forward to see your SOM dreadies done.

Hey Boss! Ghaz is looking frickin awesome!

I agree, the armour is absolutely superb. can you give me a breakdown of how you achieved it? i still struggle with airbrushing such smll armour :(

I love the colour choices for the armour, it has a really nice dull metal look to it, that over the whole model looks totally sick.

pats to finish? the copper head plate? looks like it needs a little highlighting and/or washing, looking a little flat compared to his MEGAAWESOMEARMOURSRSRS

Also, you best be giving him a suitably cool base, as else you sir are truly not doing your models paintjob justice!

Hey Solar,

Cheers mate, glad you like him so far. As both you and Brother Ectus have asked about the airbrushing I will write out the process and what paints I used for it etc.

But....... I have some pics to add.

Hey all,

Larog, my warboss is now done. And I have undercoated the nob bikes to do next. Some other pics added in too.

Quick pic update, this is the biker boss's bike. The others are all base coated with the airbrush highlights and are awaiting the silver stage before they each get an oil wash. Will update further pics tomorrow as I have a days painting planned so hope to get a fair bit done on them.

Quick pic

Absolutely loving those bikes, that squad is going to look so impressive. amazing conversion work ,love this army, cant wait to see more.

Really awesome work Drachenfels!

I echo the comments regarding your warbosses' armour, really great job. Lovely choice of colour and nicely highlighted.

Your looted trucks are looking fantastic! So Orky! And those ARE the best Ork bikes I have ever seen, hands down.

I would happily receive a Waaagh! from them.

Thanks Vourne, cheers dude

This thread has so much win it is almost illegal.

Great conversions and paint-jobs. Really amazing!

They look epic! I really like your painting style, suitably orky
