My converted scions are ready to make things go boom

These guys make a big BOOM!

Bolt Action Fallschirmjager Panzerschreck team, may get some rebasing though.

I'm in with a DS-8 support turret.

Missile Boom!

made some progress on my great unclean one, maybe about halfway?...he's a biggun though, and more detailed than he probably appears!

here's a couple of wipshots:

Looking ace already, you're really bringing out the details there!

Updated proof in case this month goes well.

Mistaken, nice figs!!

Here is my finished entry.

I'm going to attempt to get in on this month!
I present my proof of "The ascended plaguebearer" a nurgle Daemon prince with an oversized jump pack that I presume makes a really loud sonic "BOOM!" When he takes off!



A couple more angles to get a better idea of his pack and contribution to this month's theme!







Don't know if I'll be able to get him done this month but I'm about to go prime him up and at least attempt it.

Hi all

Amazing that some people have finished already, great effort.

I felt like going back to the movies for this entry and doing a pop culture reference. Heres my entry

One of the final scenes from Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (the scene when the guy (Maj Kong) fixes the bomb release doors/mechanism and the nuke then falls to the ground with him riding it. Nukes definitely go boom!

Aiming for this, but with Orks


WIP so far

Probably sit this one out. Nothing I can think of which is really..."BOOM" qualified for this month. The closest I'll come is an old kit-bashed Predator, but that's not very boomy.

Not Boomy?! It's a tank! It makes littler stuff go BOOM!

Well, that's my reasoning anyway lol

As for me, I've got this for BOOM (Proof):



Is gonna be a set of Tankbustas (using the lootas bits to convert some boys n such)

So I've rounded up a selection of Tallarn models that go Boom! Demo charge, Sergeant with grenade, missile launcher and sniper:

@Yorkright - looks great...nice work man, and damn fast too!

@Drummernathan - ooh that's looking like a pretty cool flying nurgle daemon prince...looking forward to seeing that done

@Guildenstern - yay orks!...looking forward to seeing what those tankbustas are going to look like

@Elbows...how is a orky predator not going to qualify for "BOOM!"??...it's literally what it does! go for it! (if you feel like it of course!)

@Midget Gems - haha...oh man, that's gonna be great!

I'm in with a set of MkIV lascannon devastators:

Messed up the pinning as usual, but just about salvaged it. Nearly ready for priming now.

Now, THIS is gonna be EPIC! I'm definitely looking forward to how it turns out!

Two meltaguns and a plasma gun will make your tank go BOOM!

Two regular bikes and one RT bike.

My proof -

Fortunately I chose an easy one to complete this month, finished!











Although I might try to get some slightly better photos later in the month, if I have time...

Actually is EPIC scale stuff ok to do?

(kidding!)

might as well throw away all your brushes I think Midget Gems' got this one tbh

I did a lot of the conversion for my guys this weekend - I really would like more rockets tbh but I don't have too many more sadly. They're all pretty loosely held together atm by blue tack as I hate trying to paint under arms.

Quick WIP shot of my Hammerhead:

I've mostly gotten the base hull blue down, just needs tidying up mostly.

That's me done
Aside from basing, which I don't have the stuff to do at the moment. :(

Turrety boom.

update on my entry:

My entry below is an old metal loota, he was a pain to strip with a paintjob I did on him when I was about 12... trust me, he looks better with no paint.


you may notice some tankbustas in the background too... I started them just before 'Boom' was suggested as a theme... darn...

It's now 1/3rd of the way through the month and all I have managed to do is greenstuff the gaps and change a few weapons.

Kinda hoping that all the 3rd party bits will scrape me a few extra votes at the end of the month. No idea how i'm going to paint the scopes.

everyone is going for one big boom, I going for lots of little booms! constantly, for the entire battle, without stopping.

in other words, I'm painting up a punisher.

proofs will be posted when I got home and get my lightbox

Wow. really amazing stuff this time. looking forward to the jumping nurgle lord, but midget gems has the cool factor.

WIP

I decided to dioramarise these two because I don't play many games so they'll just be sitting around regardless.
I think its looking pretty good.

Lots of cool stuff this month. Started in on the basecoats on my stuff. Might be short on detail, but they are long on nostalgia.

Those currently looks so strangely like they're wearing denim that I'm looking for a levi's logo
