First time I use this emoticon:  

And you deserve it! :D I love all your minis but this one is perfect. The off-white armour, the weathering and dirt. It just screams World Eaters!

[Scarsminimadness]

Cool world eaters. I think the commander looks really badass with the that blood covered power fist. And the banner is great!

[Ovidius Incertus]

Amazing stuff.  The WE and EC are off the charts.  And the lightning/electricity in the energy chambers on that Warhound's turbolaser is brilliant.

 

Two questions, please:

 

- what is your airbrush set up, what size needle do you use and what pressure do you usually run your compressor at?

 

- how do you do those fantastic gore strings on your WE Contemptor (among other places)?  I've dribbled superglue down fishing line and coated with Tamiya clear red and it's OK, but yours are really great and more realistic than mine.

 

Thanks!

[Scarsminimadness]

Thanks guys!

Ovidius: 0,2 needle and i run my compressor on 35 PSI
The gore is made with plastic glue from revel that comes in a tube (not the one with the needle)
I mix it with tamiya clear red between my fingers and so the glue gets sticky and then place it really careful on the place where i want it.
Note that it is really fragile when it is dry so be careful with it. 

[GhostMalone]

have I ever told you how much I hate you, constantly im comparing my WE to yours and I give up.

your too good and I cant win.  so I officially am at the point of stoping bying a aircompressor and air brush and attempting to be better then you

[Scarsminimadness]

Thanks guys!

Dont give up Jaspcat!

Hey Everyone!

Unfortunately the diorama did not place but i did win a bronze medal with my Fulgrim! 
It was a great day at Scale Model Challenge. 
Met the guys from Massive voodoo and some other big name artists. 
So it was a very successful day for me!

Then onto some question you guys asked me earlier:
 

sorry if this has been asked before, just wondering if you use an airbrush and if so which one?

 

thanks very much

The world eaters are amazing! Especially that warhound's warhound ;)

[GrandMagnus]

Nice, are you back working on Grey Knights? I really like your white/purple scheme instead of the red/white.

[Scarsminimadness]

Thanks guys!

Anaziel: I have sold my grey knight last year!
But this is for the client that bought them indeed :)
He is going to make the army even larger with a lot of henchmen but thats something for the future :)

[GrandMagnus]

Oh I did not know you sold them, but the buyer is one lucky Grey Knight.

[Quixus]

Was it part of the deal to paint opaque cockpit windows on the stormraven? I'm sure you could have done awesome interiors. could we get a close up on the faux reflexions?
