really liking that last killa kan and the half trac is great too

It looks really amazing. keep it up.
Grtz, Remco

wow just randomly scrolling through and now I am excited for Huron!

@bigfish, @Remco thank you for your support!

@Edreynaline, I'm also very excited! Can't wait till my ordered stuff comes in!

'kay guys, it's done! Done and done (the gun barrel needs to be drilled out still, but will do that later)! This model was a joy to paint I must say. Lot's of details and fun bits and the resin model didn't require a lot of prep work. The lightning of the pictures is a bit off here and there, so sorry about that (*sigh* I really need a lightbox!).















I think I'll take a little time off (two days or so) and I'd probably finish up the Astral Claw assault marine (I use this fella as a colour scheme test). Anyways, thanks for looking guys!

Fantastic job, well done. Looks awesome, and nice and bright. Just how I like my orks.

Cheers Cam! Bright Orks are the way to go!

That track looks great!

Thanks Greldinard! And a happy new year to you all! Best wishes for 2015!

Okay, a quick update before I go to bed. Been working on my Astral Claws some more! Still very WIP though. The metals of his body are almost done but his right arm and backpack need some highlights. And I've been attempting to wet blend the chainsword (black to a grey-ish colour) but it wasn't so succesful as I hoped, but we'll keep on trying till we get it right!


(And who's that in the back? Lugft? Yep, I couldn't resist giving him some colour )







Thanks for looking!

Hi guys! Finished the Astral Claw The lighting influences the paint job a bit, but it's still okay to see methinks.








I've done a bit blending on the chainsword, it's a bit subtle on the photo, but will definitely use the technique on my next models, with some improvements of course.





The transfers on the shoulder pads gave me a headache though. Especially the chapter symbol didn't wrap nicely around the shoulder pad. Still managed to get an okay result, but I hope it will go better next time. Perhaps some of you have some tips for applying transfers on a shoulder pad?

In other news, my order from Kromlech came in yesterday! Armour for Warboss Huron Black'eart!


And he's a MONSTA! I'm really excited to get started with this project. I need to order lots of other bits still, but the project is underway! His left arm has a big shoota now, but obviously he's getting an arm with a big choppa to mimic his Chaos version. I'm still keeping the shooty arm for him in case he needs some extra dakka!

Cheers guys, C&C welcome!

The Astral Claw looks awesome bud, very cool, and shiney. Very shiney, brilliant job.

Kromlech Bod looks amazing. looking forward to that.

Thank you very much Cam! Although to my dismay, I saw I put the wrong squad marking on his shoulder pad! He isn't an tactical marine dang, really gotta to fix that...

great stuff as usual, mate. Neat Astral Claw and I'm especially fond of that ork buggy.

Cheers! It was a blast to do!

Also, for some reason, I sort of want to see a 'looted' Lufgt Huron, where the Orks bring him back to life rather than the forces of Chaos

I'd love to draw that one day or even convert a Huron Blackheart model! Huron Black'eart da fearless Warboss of da Red Cossairz Orks! Darn you Ezra! Not another conversion project!

^^^ I second this

It will be done sir! and I already ordered some stuff for the warboss! (Oh dear, this is gonna mess up my painting schedule ) I also have an idea what his alternate Hamadrya will be. A squig with the ability to manifest psychic powers (due to a brain transplant with a wierdboy thanks to the genius of da Dok) it can channel the powers to Huron through an entenna on its head.

Yep... this conversion project's gonna be awesome! Waagh! Black'eart is on its way! Da green are greenest alone! ...or something like that.

Can't wait

I have to stop posting before I fully finish reading the thread!! But too excited

I was hoping you'd like it! I'd like to start with the flamer on his claw and bosspole next week! Keeping you guys posted of the progress of course!

I'd like to write some more Warboss Black'eart fanfiction, but my knowledge of Huron himself is a bit limited

Maybe I'll have more inspiration once his model is finished

That be great Ezra! The Warhammer 40k wikia has a lengthy article about Huron, so that's worth a read. Personally I don't like Wikia wiki's since they have lots of speculation and made up stuff there but from what I've read they mainly get their info from Imperial Armour vol 9 and 10 of the Badab War and the novels about Blackheart, so that's good!

Just keep in mind, Huron likes big guns (dakka dakka!), is not afraid to sacrifice a human here and there (or ork in this matter) to achieve his goals, is a briljant strategist and a wee bit power hungry... just a bit... no seriously....
In other words, the perfect warboss

Just a pinch of a Megalomaniac

Good evening everyone! To show you I'm not slacking off I have some pics to show you of what I'm painting these days

The Blood Angels are getting some love again. Last week a couple of friends and myself were playing against each other in an epic battle of Space Wolves with Blood Angels vs Chaos Marines! The Death Company served me well in crumpstomping some summoned daemons, so I figured they could use some paint! These models have been laying around for a while now, so it's about time. On to the pics:







Apologies for the crappy photo quality but I was in a hurry. This power fist guys is nearly done, the other guys on the back are basecoated and have some washes. Tell me what you guys think!

In other news; I didn't have any time to work on warboss Black'eart last week and I'm still waiting for some bits and kits (hurry it up GW! Stop nagging my FLGS!). On the other hand I want to start the project with a big bang (make some artwork for it etc.) so I need a little more time to prepare things. You guys have to wait a wee bit longer. But it's gonna be a blast so stay tuned!

Awesome looking stuff, glad I came back

thanks Nash!

Death Company's looking great Levi

Also, more Black'eart fanfiction!

With a terrifying roar Huron grabbed the first Ork in sight with the enormous steel claw that had been crudely melded unto his body and snapped it half, throwing its torso into the crowd in front of him. His entire body pulsated as the machinery whirred into life, sparks flying in all directions. With a mighty swing he sent five Orks hurtling into the air, before charging the massive horde of greenskins in front of him.

He hacked, slashed, stomped and crushed his way through the Orks, his rage fuelling the carnage. He was halfway through ripping a Nob's head of when he noticed something strange: the shouting, screaming was... off. No sense of panic could be deduced out of it. The Orks were a warlike species, but even they knew fear and pain at some point.

That's when he realized something.

The shouting, the screaming, it wasn't out of despair or panic.

They were cheering him on.



...Orks will be Orks after all

Awesome piece of fluff! Let's get stuck in boyz! I think I'll also paint up some boyz to accompany Huron. I was thinking of 4 boyz, a nob with Waaagh! banner and a painboy who fixed 'im up (I call him Gutzsnik for now )

Hello Dakkanauts! A quick update on the Death Company; four chaps are done, just one to go!



Cheers!

Really liking how those Astral Claws turned out Levi, and really liking that Kromlech Cybork body. Ded stompy!!

Thanks!

After a few evenings and afternoons of hard work, the Death Company is finished! Here, have some pictures!













Be sure to check my other blog for more pictures.

Right, on to the next project!

Fantastic work, great painting, really lke your style, got a nice crispness to it.
