also bought this unreleased Acro-Flaggent along with the Giantslayer.

They used this same pose for the Cortez flaggent but he is a little bigger all around.

Hard at work today on terrain

Using the Shrine of the Aquilla with extra sections.

It is extra large,I added a entranceway made from CoD tiles

I still need to add broken I-beams,pipes,and wiring.

finished off weathering the grey bulkhead tonight using 3 AK streaking fluids

Rust,Streaking and Winter streaking grime applied with a fine brush in vertical lines coming off of where you would expect to see run-off

I then used a large flat brush damp with thinner and started to steak it downward.

Next will be the pinwash.

Ok so today I finished off the Cathedral,All I have to do is paint and wash the skulls on the front annex,but in all I am very pleased with the results.

Use AK streaking fluid or Red/brown dark brown,and OD enamel paint paint thin vertical lines and blend in with downway strokes with a flat brush dampen with thinner.

I finished it off with dusting the bottom with MIG concrete weathering powder fixed with pigment fixer.

Scabs from the Kal Jericho set will make for a great Untouchable

So last night after work I find this waiting at the door

The FW Realm of Battle tile,so today I will finally start on the madness that is a Realm of Battle board and you know the motto always start with the shinest shiney you have :D

 

So when you first look at the board you might be disapointed with the ground texture,relax.

It is a base,you can paint it if you want but it is really meant to be flocked and hit with modeling sand.

I use a mix I buy at the railroad hobby shop 2 one quart containers of fine and medium ballast and a bag of small talus.

I mixed them all up in a spare container for a nice ground mix.

I used the Original Tacky Glue a old housepaint brush and a cup of water to help spread the glue and the ground mix

I broke the board up into six imaginary sections and layed the glue down then dipped the edge of the brush in water and spread the glue.

Once spread I added the ground mix and pressed it down lightly with my hand.

Then I would turn the piece over remove the excess sand and start on the next section.

You will want to lay the glue down in this way so it does not start to dry before you add the sand.

Once I had the board covered I used Scenic Spray Cement and coated the whole board generously but not letting it pool.

I then used a damp paper towel to remove glue and sand on detail I did not want it.

Afterward make sure to flush the sprayer with warm soapy water so you can reuse the sprayer(do this as soon as you are finished with it do not let dry at all)

Next it will get a black primer coat then the painting begins

I have the ground work painted up.

First I primed the whole thing black then I used Army Painter Leather Brown spray to dust over the black to turn it dark brown

I then drybrushed it using a house trin brush and various earth and grey tones

You really do some amazing work, Brother.

 

Do you sleep? haha. You crank this stuff out sooooo fast.

 

The real question is do Androids Dream?

I agree though it should take more than a day to do the FW board,I still need to do the metallics and weather the concrete

When I can with high money items,I like to add a little something.

I left the tile alone for the most part,but this piece caught my eye,the security camera.

Now I happen to have just the right size for a AK product called realistic lenses.

I used the 3mm optic colored lense

Takeing a #17 flat blade I removed the molded in lense cutting it flush.

Using tacky glue I replaced it with the AK lense.

That along with some more rust work and I can put this tile to bed and start on the next,a very cool idea using an expansion tile and moonscape craters.

I did this in less than a day

I am Billy the "Paintbrush Kid" :lol:

One down eight to go

For the second tile I started with one of my two expansion tiles.

My board will always always be for 40k,so I wanted a few themed tiles.

This one was simple take a few moonscape craters and plastic glue them down on the flat expnsion tile.

Instant barrage tile.

I layed the groundwork same as last time,think PVA glue,sand,watered down PVA applied with spray bottle.

I should have this one finished tommarrow before I have to go to work at 4pm.

Drying as we speak,shame PVA takes forever and a day to dry.

Yeppers,I need something to fight the Horus Heresy on :D

I might just end up buying a second set of expansion tiles,so I can have some specialty ones

I also plan to make tile using the crashed Aquilla lander and some Blastscape scenery.

If I can ever find a Trench set again a trench tile too.

I also started the second expansion tile,this one is straight out of the Battle for Macragge set.

I finally used this great wreck scenery added a few cable,wires,and extra dodads around the wreck to well make it more wrecky.

I even added an extra Maruader gears I had,looks cool as hell I cannot wait for it to dry

I finished the crater tile this afternoon.

I used enamels to filter the rocks along with weathering powder to get that realistic apperance.

Then I added soot blast in the center craters in a star pattern and the same with the white ashes around the craters.

Two down six to go,well thats a bold face lie.

I just bought two more expansion tiles

I really like the idea or a minefield tile and the other who knows I think I'll put that up for a while.

I really want to make a trench tile,but if I was a betting man

I'd say even money that is the next special tile they make and trenches on Ebay are astronomical

Alrighty I have the next one almost finished just have to work the crater.

The rust was done with a black-green sprayed on patchy like camo

Then a overspray with Hull Red.

After that it was just working every MIG rust powder they make.
