uwowrestler Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I imagine most people will get the references to that. ;) These are my latest creations. My army's coming along well. 50 miniatures painted and 4 vehicles (two rhinos, a razorback and a predator) painted in about 40 days. I've been trying to incorporate your advice from past posts with my other units and vehicles. I'm rather pleased with these chaps. In any case, without further delay, here's the pics: http://img185.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc01584wz2.jpg http://img523.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc01585de1.jpg http://img135.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc01586wp9.jpg http://img60.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc01587ui7.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 All but the last one are dead links, but you beat me to it. I have a Peirce in my second command squad, but no Mulcahy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapter master 454 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Not sure but those links show no pictures, just adverts for random things. Is anyone else having this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uwowrestler Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 Sorry about that. Corrected the links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khrangar Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 My first reaction on looking at the title was 'Oh dear' but looking at them they look pretty good. Some touchups to sharpen the lines, namely around the +, and some highlights would make them look a lot better. Khrangar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castlerook Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Based on two of the longest serving characters in the show M*A*S*H*, nicely done. But wheres Commander Blake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay79 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Would be easier to view if you would imbed the pictures directly into the post. Looking good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamJacksUserName Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 But wheres Commander Blake? Dead. His Thunderhawk got shot down while returning to the battle barge. Chapter Master Potter has taken his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peredyne Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 If you're going with the MASH concept, you need to take that bolt pistol off of the Apothecary. Hawkeye steadfastly refused to carry a gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master SFDRF Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 names are familiar.... but its escaping me....

Castlerook Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 If you're going with the MASH concept, you need to take that bolt pistol off of the Apothecary.

uwowrestler Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 lol Yeah, "Pierce" really shouldn't be holding a weapon, but hey opinions can change 41,000 years later right? lol I was actually sort of hamstrung there. Both models are pewter and I'm not exactly confident in my cutting/converting abilities with metal yet. But thanks a lot for the comments. I had a heck of a time trying to get "Mulcahy's" black armour to stand out. Dry brushing with boltgun metal saved me there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Since I never liked MASH I can't comment on the joke. So I will comment on the painting and converting. You should trim down the head of the chaplain a bit to fit it more neatly. This way he has a rather long neck. And you really need to water down your paints a bit and apply more than one coat of thick paint. Just a couple of watered down coats of your main color, highlights with your main color + a little white and a wash of black or brown or whatever seems fit for your main color, very fast and looks good enough for most people. The paint on the apothecary is really very thick and obscures most of the details. Finally, here's an article on painting black armor which I find very useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
