heeellloooo, Dakka,

been too long since I posted but here's a couple of pics of what I've been up to over the past year as a part time commission painter and a full time bitz basher.

pics aren't greats, projects might be...

all of these models have either since been sold or were build for clients.

chaos jets



choas knight





more center pieces



command tank





some knights





and this thing I just finished for a client and it's too date the tallest model I've ever done.

bitz bashed Warlord Titan

but this stuff was all just practice for what I'm working on now. I call it the Mourning Spear, its over 56 inches long, 26 inches wide 20 inches tall, it's cost or bitz value is currenty at $1850 and most importantly, it's about 85% done.

and when it's done, which may be in the next week or two, I'll bring it here.

thanks for looking comments always welcome.

good to be back with the crazies.

crap, I see what I did, one min.

Only pic that works is the first jet pic. Everything else isn't loading.

I like the land-carrier, would make for an excellent gaming surface for a large game. Great stuff.

Wow! Amazing work on that land carrier! Are you saying there are no better pictures to be had? That is pretty said, I'd LOVE more close ups on the carrier and jets!

finished the main build on the new titan, people think it looks thin but that's actually part of the design and the weight management. the greatest thing about this project is i used, 98% warhammer bitz, not other matterials not plasticard, if i had this would have been alot easier.













now to paint, which will be mostly dry brushing so shouldn't take that long.

London, England.

I like it when people approach builds with the ambition of a mad scientist.

They're really dramatic and inventive, how tall is that Titan?

An interesting take on an Imperial Titan, for sure. Probably not to everyone's tastes, but you've put in a hell of an effort making it. So kudos!

Actually just saw there was more to this thread then the titan. You do some interesting conversions. That big land crawler with the landing pad is a great centrepiece. Was there ever any conclusion to that?

lol that was a very PC way of saying you don't like the design but that's ok. the whole thing kind of grew out of the idea of using only what I had at hand and so this is where it ended up.

as for the land ship I finished it months ago but forgot to pot pics of it here, will do that tonight.

@SalabasamaMade, Ork stuff is too easy.

so to clarify, when I say I finished it months ago what I mean to say is I finished the actual build months ago but I haven't painted it because the intention was always to sell it there for painting it in one color scheme only to then have to paint it in another would be a waste of time so I've left it in it's bear plastic form so the buyer can see what it was made from and that most of the materials used were brand new. If I do end up painting it then it will most likely be neutral colors. but in the meantime it is done. I should also say both this ship and the titan are up for sale and the land ship comes with a full company of brand new marines.





















also here's a mobile ork battle tower I put together to show a client what I could do with with orks.







someone asked me where I get the ideas, I said it all comes out of the bitz boxes, I'm just the guy with the glue.

So I got asked to do a Primaris Drop Ship with room for either 2 replusers or 40 marines.

this is what I built.











I would have liked to get some pics of it painted but the client came to get it the same night I finished it and he's painting it as a black Templar unit so it will be months be we see the completely finished project, but in the meantime, I'm pretty happy with it. this one started as a commission and thus I never owned it for a minute, might have to build another one for myself. and crap, I didn't take a pic but the whole front opens up as a ramp.

thought>?

haven't had a chance to post in a bit but here's what I call the Mammoth class baneblade, project took about five hours, going to sell it as is so I haven't painted it. and yes the gun is too long, so sayth the few.









more to come..
