Holy crap, TazN... That's freakin' awesome!

I would have been tempted to not show any WiP pics, then drop the finished pic on the deadline and blown everyone's minds

@nflagey: love that Wazdakka! I say do that one!

I did that with my BA banner but I want to get feedback as I'm going as someone may spot something I miss. I have now finished the head off and will be starting on the limb tomorrow then fingers crossed the body will be done over the weekend.

There are some nice entries so far, looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with now.

Some good stuff being shown so far, and I am looking forward to seeing the progress made on the proof pictures everyone is posting.

So I thought I would throw up a WIP picture, really having fun painting this one so far (probably sitting at about 90%). This is the first time I have painted a giant lizzard, normally it's either power armor or daemons.


(Definitely need to dig out my real camera for any future pictures).

Any comments welcomed.

Well, he's done now. Here are my 4 pictures

Nice job. Can I suggest taking final pics on a white/plain background with good lighting. I had to discount models last time from my voting because I couldn't see details in favour of the better photographed. Sell your mini as well as possible! :thumbs up:

Looks great AUG! You've stepped up the basing from last time, good job!

You know what would make that power sword look awesome...? Take a light blue, and lightly dry brush the top half of the sword. Make sure you get a lot of the paint off the brush before you start dry brushing. If you're feeling brave, you can do the plasma coils with the same method. You'll likely have to clean up the gun after the drybrush, but it's a small price to pay.

Will also echo what TP^DC said. Sell your mini!

urrgghhh - really need to get a move on with these RW bikes. Just not feeling them at all. A1meh!!

Hey again,

I've managed to get 1 Cyboar and Rider ready for painting, pic



Couple more pictures are on my blog of him. Unsure to paint him now or work on the other 2/4 Cyboars!

Cheers.

I would like to enter with my Biker Canoness, Avery del Monica as she us both fast, AND furious.

Nice, that is one big Sword!

All the better to purge you with, my dear.


Edit: already knew I was going to sculpt a new cloak over the weekend. Now I know what color to paint it, and that I need to include a hood.

Is that a Legion Eviscerator, Zefig?

It's from Kromlech.. And that one is already huge, the bigger one in the set would maybe be appropriate for a terminator or centurion even.

SJM - that is a cool cyboar and rider - the grenade in his mouth adds volumes to his character!
Zefig - love how the figure draws my eye away from what is essentially a basic SM bike, makes the bike what it is - a bit of transport for someone who's gonna do some damage

Love that cyboar, the greenstuff leg looks REALLY good too. Sculpting is something I struggle with so can really appreciate how much skill it takes.

The chainsword is mega. Love the feel of the bad ass biker stance, cant wait to see it finished.

Will post my next wip over the weekend, ordered some bits to help with this project as I needed more airbrush cleaner anyway. Dragon section is on hold till I get my shipment so might move onto some of the gems and other details while I wait.

That's my proof pic. I'll try not to fail this time. It's an 'Ard Ork Boy. He's furious because he's an Ork, and he's fast because I'll paint him somewhat red.

Here we go.
As I am in a rush this month, I had to hurry with my entry for this month.
I'm not really happy with him but it is the best I could do this time.

I'm looking forward to see all the great entries!
Good luck to everyone.

I have no clou why my pics are turned and not upright. Para, if you could fix that.
THX

im kinda too hot to be creative this month but im working on a hover bike, im sculpting the front vent, i keep messing it up
since it sort of fits im going to post pics of my progress and if im lucky i might be motivated to finish it

Oh man... I've seen loads of super cool ork conversions recently, makes me want to go green!

That big ol' chain sword is pretty awesome, too!

So much great stuff! Absolutely love that cyboar!

I've made some slow steady progress with my Ragik over the last few evenings, and aim to get properly started this weekend. I went for a more central position which required some creative drilling and milliput to get secure... the studio mini looks like it's missed the base by a few feet!

Hey... that's not a bad idea... Maybe I could get myself to paint the Icestorm Sikh Commando... he would meet the criteria.

Kustomer D - love that model and the basing makes it look epic. Well done!
Arclaw - the pose for your mini makes it feel dynamic and definitely fast, "simple" alteration has made a huge difference

My entry is finished, I have a lot of things to paint this month for a tournament so he had priority.

I hope you like him.

Lucas Mccabe from Malifaux, image is zoomable in the gallery.

I spent more time on the horse than the rider

This is my WIP shot of Sven Bloodhowl. Still more work to be done. Waiting on some bits to make his chainsword

Another quick wip report.

Hey guys- when I upload pics, don't be surprised if they look grainy or bad. I have a really gakky camera.

Hopefully I can finish this project in time. Had these guys sitting around for a long time.

WiP time and a bit of a sorry WiP it is lol. These Ravenwing are a bit meh to paint. Just not getting into them but persevere I shall!! All that metl basing was dull as ...... a very dully thing. But it's done. Fiancee is moving in today so progress may be......delayed

Yeah, that's what made me give up in the first challenge. I suspect you'll fair better than me though! Keep it up
