i might also do genos... just gotta figure out what arms to use for him..

If the Model is partially built and primed, can I still enter it?

Hey AUGmaniac we'd like a model built from parts and a pic of the building of it where possible, if you pull it apart and add some more conversions and posing etc. but show us the disassembled model and you'd be o.k as you need to re build and re imagine the theme.

Done a little to the comp entry. Counts as Painboy with Grots.....

These are close to done. Please have a look and see if you spot any probs before I enter them. Would love as much feedback as possible really.

Thanks for looking.

Wow Cam! that's a bloody involved bit of work there dude! :-) those lenses are perfectly done and the effect on the blade is really cool and very different, I like the mix of styles and techniques on your composition, the stone work in particular is very good and the 'Red Cross' medical symbol appears printed on to the canvas! good job :-)

Great work there Camkierhi. Can't see anything wrong with your work.

Well Christmas over so on with it. Started painting, sorry for the image colour. Will adjust for the final images. You can see the GS'ed left hand.


Cheers, Vim

He's looking real slick, Vim

Does the contest end the tenth of January or the first of October?

10th of January Matthew, not far to go now! :-)

and still building the Magos.....><

Stop typing....start painting ;-)

I'm on it, I'm on it!!! Just finished building the head of his axe Green stuffing today, paint starts tomrorrow...ish

God Jan!!!!! c'mon man what did I just say? stop all this malarkey and get that brush or primer out! lol :-)

Lol. There ya go. WiP shot!

Impressive. Most impressive!
Would love to know your secret to being so accurate on the axe teeth Januine and do you use some kind of cable rolling device for the GS cables on the left of the pic? Sorry for being nosy

I wish there was a 'Gak! I keep dropping my mini and breaking it.' category. Anyhoo here we are. I think that's it finished. The colour in these photos is closer to the actual colour. Tomorrow I'll take some pics using a tripod and some proper lighting.


Cheers Vim

Cheers Vim. The cables are done with a gs with a thin piece of wire in the core then run through one of those cable/tentacle rollers. The axe teeth - you know those tipex/correction tape thingys? Bought one of those and broke it open. They have some plastic cogs n wheels inside. Simply cut one up and then glued the bits to a styrene rod. The AdMech symbols are from the imperial knight kit

Vim, that's a lovely piece of work. Great sense of motion to it.

agreed...
i am so stealing that idea, Vim...
great job

cheers
jah

@jan love that tech axe, i have a bunch of tech marine bits but no weapons

Wee update on the Magos. Fella is coming along

Is it weird that I like that colourscheme?

grey and warpish green?

Something like.
Bear in mind I'm colourblind, it just looks very cybergoth and tangy to me.

Ah ok, gotcha. cybergoth.....likeeeee!!! being going througha lot of Blanche's stuff for inspiratin for this one. He'll be painted up in my usual AdMech livery but darker and grungier as befits his age!

Great idea. Love Blanche's painting. It sounds really bitchy, but I like it because he's not the most technically astounding painter, and his stuff is messy. It's really organic and looks real world. He treats those figures like little canvases and throws stuff at them.

I really should keep more of the Blanchitsu pages from Visions.

Agreed. I think (at least for me) he captures the AdMech world, the Grimdark and the dark aesthetic the best.

Amazing work on the tentacles and the haft!

Anyone else finished their models yet? :-) don't forget to PM me with final images with the theme as the subject! not too many days left to go before judging WoooooHoooooo

Entry submitted, guessing you don't want our final pics up here!

Good luck everyone, hope you guys finish, cus at this rate I could get a prize by default!

Well, I've just got replacement dangly parts for Fulgrim, so it's now down to the wire for getting him done.
