Well, stylish can still be evil.
And this'll do for now.

I are done.

Very happy with how she turned out. Needs a base but that's a different project entirely!

Woo very nice!

Man, I need to get my act together for this month's entry!

@PossumCraft:

There are no words.

As for my entry, I'm almost done, just a few more bits left to paint.

Shame I just saw this. I just painted up a squad of old Swooping Hawks. Tsk tsk. Here are the pics though I needn't be added to the group since I didn't post this prior to paint:

eBay received:


Finished yesterday:

@elbows - you just entered. As long as there is a proof of pre-painting and you painted them this month you are in. We're pretty lax other than that around here

Yeah, welcome aboard! Great work on some classic models!

Well, that'll work!

That Eldar flying abomination is amazing! I think I have some iridescent medium somewhere to try that trick on some unfortunate victim.

And those winged fools are pretty good too.

As for me, after a week of summer torture in the coast I bring my owl. I may go back to it and tweak it, but seeing as we may be going somewhere else equally distant from my paintbrush... I'll play safe rather than sorry and post some pictures now.

FINISHED

Some amazing entries again this month.

I've spent all day painting the first of my five Scourges. I decided to do that rather than some kind of production line, because now I do at least have something to enter, even if it does just end up being the one miniature. I've only really got tomorrow and Monday to paint the rest, and I have no idea when I'll be able to photograph them. What's worse, my wife usually takes the photos, and any free evenings we have are going to be taken up with her playing the new Deus Ex game. She loves Deus Ex.

A bit more WIP. Need to get a good splurge on soon to get things moving. Completion is still doable in time

PossumCraft Holy smokes... that iss amazing ser.

PossumCraft, that's a fantastic entry!
I'm curious, you described in your "recipe" (how to create this effect) that there's a decal involved. How much is that, where is it exactly?

The sunrise and water on the wings is a decal. From the engine blades (?) downward I've placed on a large decal I printed.

Vacation is over and I got some work free days left. So I ll try to finish a Deffkopta - as there are a few flying around here this month.

Thanks!
Well done, it's invisible to me.

Building done!

Other than the belt buckle,mine is now half finished:

literally

I'd leave him like that, sockwithaticket. Reminds me of a Dr Seuss book about a pair of haunted trousers.

I've been painting some more today, and two more Scourges now have highlighted armour. Two more need the armour painting, and then I'll have to get to work on the other bits of those four, the wings, the guns, the vials, the details, and the bases. Easy...

Bit more WIP:

just some WIP shots.

My garage/gaming room is in that bluelight whenever i do not have a brush in my hands. So im starting to use neons and glowindark paints so things show up in the blue light and dont just look like a darkish blob on the shelfs.

Still no base, but im going to try something for them to work "as is" for the bases.

The shroud that is in pieces, is the contest one. The shroud that is whole, is my old one/ one to try out colors to see how they look before i ruin the contest one

lol at Sock - amazing work though tbh, but it would be really funny to leave it half done

Kustomer D - yay!! more!!! although wouldn't you have wanted to do the pilot before assembling? well kinda, I realize it's 2 pieces... pita really if you ask me. I'm trying to get my pilot done and getting to the face is uber hard =/

I finished assambling the 2nd one, too.
The arms aren't glued on yet. So I can remove them for the painting.

@Kustomer D; I highly recommend you take a decent pick of the cockpit when it's done, before assembly, and include it as one of the finals; you're doing a fantastic job on all those screens, etc. which will never see the light of day otherwise!

Alright finished

Omg it looks so sweet. And the Dragons Teeth on the base too perfectly set the scene; about to fly into enemy territory.

Love it.

That is some seriously sweet flyer there. Really lovely job

Thanks guys.

Well, I'm happy to report that a new airbrush has been acquired, and the flanker is back in the game!

Just finished spraying the final shade of the camo. Hopefully it turns out good when I unmask it tomorrow...
