Paladin7221: Ha, quite right fella but that is part of the problem, he just looks to be standing there, totally unaffected by the recoil whilst pulling g's. Sure he's a space marine but just want a little, well, more presence from him if you know what i mean.

 

Goose, deathspectrsgt, Kierdale:  Cheers guys, much appreciated!

 

Moving onto current projects:

 

I have dug this old lady out as this months theme is Transports....

Reworked the commandant some but the question to the floor is do I add a diagonal yellow or white stripe up the sides infront of the flame storms?

 

Also I love my fiance very much:

Good times ahead!

Sooo, tried to work out how to do the old hairspray weathering.

 

which starts off like this:

Which then leads to this. Actually didn't work as it is supposed to but relatively happy with the result all the same although one side turned out better than the other.

Razblood: Ha, Cheers buddy and some nice work on your DA's!

 

War Angel: The Night Hunters would be proud to stand houlder to shoulder with your noble warriors!! 

                   2 things.

1. Can I just make a vow on this thread?

2. I currently have about ZERO free time so the vow may have to be very, very small.

 

batu: Cheers brother! and thanks for the heads up, will defo be looking into that as whilst the effect works it wasn't all that easy to achieve!!

 

To finish off, quick couple of pics of last nights efforts,

 

Flame storms UP!

Also some more work on the weathering, was far more pronounced but a coat of Matt varnish seems to have robbed a lot of the vibrancy from the model, oh well, you live and you learn!
 
Cheers all!

sockwithaticket: Ha cheers brother, was up until the merry wee hours of Friday morning trying to get her finished for a competition in my local store in Saturday but to no avail! Still entered but will be picking her up tomorrow to finish her off!

In the meantime Sir Clausel's absolutely epic Black Templars as seen here: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/269349-clausels-black-templars-65-initiates-done/page-3

Have inspired me to try my hand at some "Thunderbirds" for my Night Hunters as well, running off the wolf list as we do!

So I have invested in a unit of Demigryph knights in preperation but I thought I should start off with my counts as wold lord on thunderwolf first.....

Still very early work in progress, still waiting on a left front leg and neck, the helmet on the rider needs bulking out but think I will stick with it, additional armour plates more akin to its smaller demigryph kin, maybe some chainmail? who knows!
Cheers all!

Cheers batu,

 

some more progress on this:

Basically been working on the rear armour to  bring the big lad into  line with his smaller brethren and the knights helmet.
 
Next, pick a shield for the knight, sort out the morning star angle, green stuff and sand the armour so it is nice and smooth.....yay.......but at least it is still a separate piece!
 
Cheers all

Really sorry for the lack of action recently, it's all been a little manic in the real world! 

 

 

Deathspectersgt7: Yeah he is a whopper.

 

1000Heathens: Good plan! The idea really is down to Brother Clausel, thanks again for the inspiration!

 

Rafen2: Thanks Brother!

 

As one can imagine, very little action this end, filed the rear armour, mocked up rein/shield arm.

 

More as time and life permits

 

Cheers all!

Paladin7221: Just so brother! The turret is proving a mite tricky as trying to make it work on an unmodernised rino chassis, but hey, we'll see what we can do!

 

batu: Cheers brother! Much appreciated, turns out the original mounts for the HB need quite a bit of amending to work but got there in the end.

 

Cheers all
