So on here I'll be doing EVERYTHING I'm working on . Terrain , Commisions , Stuff I'm doing for friends , Finishing/repainting my old stuff , helping someone out and if I ever get the chance to I'll even do Battle Reports and Fluff for the armies/squads I'm making !

So , until the next update here are some links to the blogs I've been doing so you get the basic idea for what the blog will consist off(since I only recently started doing commisions there will be pictures in the next update on that ..) .

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/266203.page (Terrain)
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/253068.page (repainting)
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/250371.page (Venerable dread , kind of old but it ended up in my 'unfinished' box . Once you go there nothing returns ..)
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/248374.page (AoBR , actually its now a commission , but he saw my colour shcemes and liked them so it will be almost like continuing the blog )

So , Next time I'll put up pictures of some Terrain im finihsing up , a little commission work , and hopefully be started on the venerable dread

See you then !

First off , theres a small commission im doing . I was gonna do it as a gift , since I dont concider my painting skill so great , but my friend that asked me to do it insisted that I took a small fee for it .

Hes not done , not at all . But here are some WIP pictures of were it stands right now . For now I have to rehighlight some high spots , redo the failed blending on the inside of the cape and finish the gold , find and paint some cool SM patterns on the cape , . Oh , and ofcourse paint all the unfinished areas !

Here are the pictures . Please note they are a little brighter than they are in real life .





Next up is something for my own Salamanders . I have one rule when it comes to making an army . First I think "what would I like to paint?" then after I'm done painting I think "were could this fit in an army list?" . This is a techmarine i got for christmas . So , here you go :

EDIT : Im having some trouble with my Internet . Lots of laginess , and some sites are just inacessable . Pictures of the tech marine , terrain and the rest that I have painted will be up as soon as I get that fixed !

is it thraka green?


Yep . Its Goblin green washed about 3 times(first in a thick layer spread over the whole model , let dry , then another two thin washes.) and then highlighted .

On to the next update !

This time I have some WIP terrain , a finished nob , and a very , very WIP warboss . Also Im about 99% done with the jumppack marine , all I have left is the black and silver on the jump pack .

Pictures (kinda dark , becouse well , its dark..)







C&C welcome !

Also , I'm writing a script for my class , due to this wednesday i think . So not to many updates coming , but I'll make it up to you guys after the script's been made .]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/278970/1405185.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/278970/1405185.page GMT Re:Bloggity - Updated 20/03/10
First off , a WIP tactical squad . Its basicly leftovers I scraped together to make a tactical squad . Note that they will all be painted to my highest standard , so it'll take time . Also note that none of the marines in the picture have been painted yet , they are all gonna be repainted .



Then theres the warboss for the Warboss&Nobz commission I'm doing . Im still working on his base . Still WIP !






C&C welcome .

Until the next update

I know that Like I said , its WIP and I took the picture right after I did the mettalic on his boot and guns .

Because I should be resting for 12-ish hour hiking in the morning(in 3 hours to be precise , so that would be 5o'clock in the night here) I took no pictures. But im done with the warboss. All I have left is gluing it to the base
. Also coming a good on the way on the next Nob, and kitbash is done. Tactical squad is ready by 1 member finished and one that is ca. 70% done.

Pictures if I dont Melt in eruption tomorrow!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/278970/1442480.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/278970/1442480.page GMT Bloggity - Updated 20/03/10

Really (about the metals)? I dig the way they look, especially the PK. Agree about the skin though, I'm curious as to what the finished product looks like!

as for the orks, they look nice and grim, the power klaw on the warboss could use some detail work to make it jump out at you more than it does at the moment, but that´s really the only point of criticism I can make at the moment.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/278970/1462376.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/278970/1462376.page GMT Bloggity - Updated 02/04/10

Thanks .

Yeah the PK was kinda rushed . Just a drybrush og boltgun and tin bitz , wash of Badab Black and then a Mithril Slver highlight .

I'll probably go over it and do something like old , scratched checkers or something

There are no pictures in this one, or alteast till tomorrow. I'm currently doing a Chaplain w/jump pack comission, but I'm doing for free. I also digged out my BfSP and I started some night goblin spearmen unit and the slayer that is'nt tied up(yet).

The nob comission kinda slowed down as I went traveling. But since I'm sitting at home with a broken leg I might just as well earn some money instead of watching sh**ty shows on the Disney Channel or something lol

Piccies tomorrow..

So, some 3 weeks ago I had a local contest were the theme was "Big Bases", so I made this little diaroma-ish thing. Its finished and now sits proudly in a display cabinet at the FLGS The name of the "Made By" thing is coloured due to the contest being anonymous.



Also, in 2008 or -09 I was gonna do a venerable dread. I only painted the base with concentration for some reason. Now I'm super exited since I found all the parts that i thought were lost and I'm going out now to spray it. Here it is before I spray it(again.. painted in a hurry back in 08 or 09..)

However, I've been in the country for a month and a half now, and haven't even looked at my models in the meantime. And even if I would have touched the pencil a couple of times, I dont have a camera.

So, monday I'm going away for another month of vacation with my mom, and after that I'll get to painting again. I'm looking forward to getting back on track with our little angry toy soilders fighting for world domination.

See you in a month with loads of pictures and new stuff.

C&C Welcome as usual.

Also I have a question about the dreadnought. I have pinned the whole thing. It has 3 pins in the waist were the body/legs parts are, and one pin on each foot to hold it onto its base. Still it keeps falling apart. Can anyone help me with this? Should I add more pins or get more glue? Answer as quick as possible please

So if you didn't already know there's a thread called "The Great Marine Swap" here on dakka from Whalemusic360. Its a program were you simply put out your chapter, and then you trade single marines with the other people out there. I for one, have a trade going with Gitsplitta and looking for more!

I'm also getting really tired of the Purple Marines I have, so since I've only repainted three or four I'll quickly swithch them over tu regulear Sally's. Down below there is a Demo Marine that will pretty much give you an idea of what I'm talking about






If you want to zoom in and vote they are available in my gallery.

So I haven't really been updating this thread for a while so I thought now is the time do to it.
