kikkala Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Whops, douple post! Rhino finished, oh lord how I hated paintin' it: More different angle pics comin' soon, need more batteries for camera :D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiriel Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I love the idea of eyes instead of lights! However, wouldn't it be for the paintings on it, this Rhino doesn't look much Chaosy :D I'm really looking forward to different angles pics, the door painting seem very good!

The Angelus Sanctus Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Very nice work on the Rhino Kik! :D I'm quite liking the eyes instead of normal lights as well, definitely a very interesting and unique effect. Looking forward to seeing more angles of the Rhino, i'm already liking the free hand work you've done on the tank, looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 @Tiriel Thanks ;) , I didn't add any chaosy chains or trophy track as, well to be honest, I find paintin' them very difficult! And they break off very easily while transporting the model. @TAS Thanks man ^_^ , I hope that the other freehands are as good as the previous ones... More pics as promised: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiriel Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Though I'm not totally sold on the parchment-like freehands, all the other ones are pretty damn good! Unfortunately, you took close-pics of all of them, except the one I truly wanted to see: the one on the left door xDD This one seems very good, but I can't see it fully!

kikkala Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 I should've had a picture of the freehand couple of pages back on this thread ^_^, but here you go: Hmm, washin' gives some sort of "skin" that reflects the light, like a matt coat .

Broodlord Steven Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I really like the "clean" look of your rhino. I personally am now having the same problem- i went spike crazy when i first built the darn thing, and now i am REALLY regretting all them spikes... :rolleyes: But otherwise i really think that you did a great job on the rhino! a wash heavy scheme like yours does not bode well for a flat surfaced model but you have managed to make it work fantastically! Keep those pictures coming, Your constant (and awesome) progress makes me want to paint my models. ^_^ -steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firestorm40k Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Rhino finished, oh lord how I hated paintin' it: Yeah, I know what you mean, I have a dislike about painting tanks too... B) Anyway, it looks great, as does the whole army, well done! :) I especially like the eyes on the lights, nice touch B) - one I might have to *yoink!* ;) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 @TAS & Tiriel Thanks :lol: . @Broodlord Steven Ah, someone having same ideals as I do :lol: . Glad that you like the paintjob, even I don't like it that much... it took over half of the pot to wash whole model, I need to do quick visit to shop :P . @firestorm40k Thanks mate. Paintin' one tank might have been tiresome, but I still need to scratchbuild & paint 2 more rhinos... imagine all the fun :lol: . Well nothing to update at this point. Dreadnought is in paint removal bin, and I won't be picking him up until saturday :o (poor oldy dreddy has collected so many layers of paint over the years), and obliterator I was planning to paint next has been delayed, 'cause I have mislocated his front torso somewhere. Maybe green stuffing some areas of him is next possible thing to do, we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted September 15, 2008 Author Share Posted September 15, 2008 Oh my... a week without anything related to WB, how in warp did I manage? During last week I painted my entry for Assault on Black Reach contest, cleaned dreaddie from all the filth, and unfortunately I didn't still find oblits chest :wallbash: . Dreaddie progress: It is was a real trick to build a stand for dreaddie to take a pic :) . Everyone who has this particular dreadnought model knows how god damn stactic models legs are, so next in to-do list is chop, chop, chop, attach and chop even more.

TheDarkApostle Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Hmm, now your really giving me the itches to rebuild that good ol' metal dread I have lying about myself, I mean, I began some converting work on him a year or so ago anyway :blink: TDA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arbogast1 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Got to admit though, the crotch section of CSM legs, at least to me, looks like a tau helmet.... :D hehe..where do you think the CSM get the cod pieces? :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Your Dreadnought o Doom has been THE best metal Chaos Dread i have seen, well, ever! :) Keep up the great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 @TDA & wiplash Hehe, thanks :P. @arbogast1 Where indeed ;) . @TAS Thanks mate, but remember there's pretty much chances that I'll screw up :lol: . Little progress tonight, started working on the arms by sawing furiosos patterns arms to pieces and shaving all imperial iconocraphy, and continued working on legs with green stuff work and fixing the section where the torso will be attached. Body ain't yet attached, so I can adjust it with the arms (when they're finished) for its final position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikkala Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share Posted September 24, 2008 Triple post, damn it :D . I found building the arm reaaally frustrating, and one arm more to go, but that won't depress me, dreaddie is starting to look really good! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 The dread is looking fantastic, so far! What is his other arm gonna be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docbp87 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Can't believe I'm only just seeing this thread. These minis look fabulous. I'm currently working on a WB army with a very similar process used for painting reds and metallics. I only wish they looked as crisp and vibrant as these. Great work!

kikkala Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share Posted September 24, 2008 @Megalodon Thanks mate, I'll give him another close combat arm, the more choppier, the merrier ;) . @docbp87 Thanks ^_^ , if you're curious how I paint my WB, check my tutorial (shameless advertisement :devil: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
