I'm sorry to say, I hate you!

 

Some unbelievable models again!!! I noticed somebody asked before (I couldn't find the answer) about you airbrushing models as your results look very different to most other things around!

 

They are all fabulous and I love your work, especially the ultrawings, please, always keep us updated!!!

Just a small update here, Vraks part 3 allows the stormtroopers to upgrade to a razorback transport sporting twin-linked Pyscannons so I decided to go for it. Payed off really in it's first engagement it dealt the death blow to a pesky Eldar tree hugging hippy hero type....huzzzaa!

On a slightly more epic scale I have been doing some trawling on ebay and after deciding to expand the pure GK army to 3000+ pts. Plenty of paint stripping later I now have an additional 40 PAGK, 7 more Terminators, a redeemer and raider to paint.....sigh I really should have known it simply wouldnt stop at a 'small allied force' on the plus side that little lot being second hand and having some quite horrific paint jobs to boot only cost me about 70 quid....woohoo!

 

Updates to follow when I get stuck into them <_<

Finally finished fitting the protective acrylic to my shelves and can now continue to fill them, huzza!

 

First mission is to bolster the Grey knights, here are the first wave, the greatest thing about these little guys is they were all cheap second hand models from ebay, stripped and re-painted

 

1 of 3 fast attack squads

extra Cannon added to the Term Squad so I can have a heavy support unit

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/GreyknightupdateDec097.jpg

 

Not wanting to fork out the silly money asked for a few more Acolytes I found these cheap alternative models on ebay, a couple of knight icons added to the banners and bobs yer uncle.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/GreyknightupdateDec095.jpg

 

I wanted to keep the units relatively uniform looking but easy to pick out individual units in the maelstrom of battle so opted to add a little colour to the helmet crests as you can see here. Blue, Gold, Red and Black Squads so far, very Reservoir dogs!

Little 'shelf shot' all that shinyness brought together, oh the Avatar is waiting to be dropped off, saying that I don't really fancy his chances, yes he may be hard but I don't think he is THAT hard!

Left to paint - Land Raider Redeemer, Land Raider, 1 x 10 man fast attack Squad, 6 more Terminators and a Thunderhawk gunship, should be it I reckon!

I find this unbelievable! Your results are incredible and the speed at which you plough through models is just incredible!

 

What is your formula? Not necessarily what paints do you use, but how do you go about completing everything so quickly at such an incredible standard!

 

Absolutely superb, again! I genuinely love (and I mean love) it when you update one of your incredible threads!

I think the biggest noticeable increase in speed is the fact I use an airbrush to lay down the base colours, after that it's simply a matter of being methodical in your approach to painting large numbers of miniatures. Also deep down I think I really hate painting, the quicker I can complete every model on the planet the quicker I can put my feet up and just relax :P

 

Btw chaps, is there an eldar section in the bolter forum? not sure I can post pics in the WIP section? I am doing a few Eldar figures for a friend who has started collecting again, defo 'mate rates' so usual gaming standards. Would like to post some pics as I progress through them, nice and bright and make a nice change from the usual mostly one tone marine figures, Just finished the Avatar and while it just took a couple of days I am quite pleased with him/her/trans-gender tree hugger God

 

I also decided to bite the bullet and accepted my first 40k painting commission for a long time, 1700'ish Wolf assault force some very nice figs in there and I will be updating on the forum soon as I get stuck into them after xmas

no eldar on here, ive heard through whispers in the warp that "the eternity gate" is a good eldar forum

 

edit - they obviously whispered to quiet, its a 40k forum with eldar in

 

http://bootae.ibforums.com/index.php?showforum=18

Well I use the 2mm Iwata HP-BH, nice alrounder, gravity fed, much easier and quicker <_<

 

Anyhow, got another vehicle finished and ticked off the list. I decided to add a little colour to this raider so it could double as Lord Rex' personal transport if need be, nothing too fancy though as it needs to slot into rank and file if needed too!

 

Few pictures below, lots more on the GK's here Grey Knights! Do me a favour if you see any interesting banners on there click and check em out, I am only a few pounds from my first adsense cheque!

Well, been utterly floored over Xmas with a serious dose of man flu but thankfully over the worst and back on form now. Not having picked up a brush for about two weeks I dived straight into finishing off the Grey Knights!

 

Again, all second hand from ebay, stripped and re-painted, always sweeter when things are cheap :P

 

You cans see the rest of the greys over at The Grey Knights!

 

First up is the final 10 man fast attack squad, or 'blue squad'

 

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/Greyknightfastattacksquad3.jpg

 

Hot on their heels are the final 5 GK Terminators

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/MoreGreyknightTerminators.jpg

 

That's quite a lot of GKT loving I can bring down on someones head now!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/allterms2.jpg

 

As far as troops go that's pretty much it now, I have a squad of deathcult assassins to paint and I may delve into the inquis side of the listings in the future (spawns, etc) but next up will be the final redeemeer and Thunderhawk Gunship then the way is finally clear for me to start on a Space wolf commission I have tucked away and am looking forward to

 

More pics soon!

Your Grey Knights are seriously the best I have ever seen. The paintjob is so smooth, it didn't look possible... These are seriously awesome, and it's extremely difficult to express it in words...

 

Edit: Where did you get those gun-blasts?

Last of the 3 vehicles finished, decided to pin the top sponson support to allow a little flexability in choice of weaponry on this one so as well as the Second Redeemer

We also have the option of a Crusader

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/GreyKnightCrusader.jpg

 

Or my own play on a GK version of the Prometheus variant

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/GreyKnightPrometheus.jpg

 

Just about finished the 'hawk so will post pics ASAP then it's onto a group shot and job's a good 'un!

 

As always lots more pics of the GK here The Grey Knights

 

ps.gunblasts from Armorcast

Final piece of the jigsaw (for now)

 

The Greys have some heavy metal air support!

 

I decided to keep the metallic look of the army on this one and added a few touches of my own such as the Psycannon sponsons and grenade launchers. Note also its the 'old' version of the Gunship, I sort of liked the idea, OK so the GK's can effectively commandeer anything they need but I liked the thought of them having a venerable oldy in amongst the shiny new stuff!

 

I had a few of the muzzle flashes painted and spare so I went with the idea of the hawk diving into a combat drop Psycannons blazing too

 

Right few pics below, lots more of the GK's over at The little silver dudes

 

Full army pic to follow ASAP

Note the Psyk-out grenade launchers t'up front

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/ThunderhawkGreyKnight9.jpg

 

I used elements from the 40k buildings to add the little eagle head details to the weapon sponsons

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/ThunderhawkGreyKnight12.jpg

 

The missiles are simply 1/48 scale real steel plastics, works out cheaper than buying FW load outs in the long run and look passable, all weapons are attached using magnets so can be removed to represent damage, etc

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/ThunderhawkGreyKnight4.jpg

 

Someones day just got a whole lot worse!
