TITH I worked on the last few pieces of my drop pod. Console and harnesses were base coated in black and the engine was base coated in Steel. I need to wash the harnesses so they're not so flat and they get a little depth added to them, then I'll start picking out details.

TITHI came home to see that my plastic glue destroyed a very important part of one of my Deathwatch models, and a slightly-less important part of another model.

 

The Plastic glue was in the box with some of my Deathwatch stuff, and apparently was knocked over somehow and leaked out plastic glue directly onto a pair of legs I was using to make a Sergeant, and the Deathwatch bike shield on Suberei's bike from Kill Team Cassius. It totally destroyed both, and fused them together.So now I need to get a new Kill Team Cassius.

 

Welp. That killed my hobby mood for the night.... And probably tomorrow too.

TITHI continued to do some work on my archmagos—>Illuminor Szeras counts-as. Currently trying to get the melee aspect of his Eldritch Lance represented in a Necron-y way without using the admech axe, or any other imperial bitz (those are being saved for my marines). Currently considering spare Wraith and praetorian bitz, but that may change.

TITHI put some work into various parts of a terrain piece I was hoping to finish up before tomorrows game.  Not going to happen but I at least did a bit.

 

I have taken to calling it the Jungle Gym; in my continued theme of rusty sector mechanicus with some GW plant bits glued on.

Small album as I'm pretty happy with how basecoating brown came out.  Yellow is painted over AK Heavy Chipping so I'm going back over all of it and scraping it away in large patches.

TiTH, despite being on the road for a bit, I brought a few brushes along and finished up my speeders (including a not-so-done javelin missing its sponsons and crew). Just gotta wait to get home and magnetize some grav-guns for 30K. And I finished up some destroyers. Just, y'know, gotta do the suspensor web missiles.

I've seen OSL done pretty well, and pretty badly, and yours looks effing brilliant. At first I thought 'how has he mounted lights to his speeders?'.

TITH I opened up the Ebay Lizardmen I won and cut all the weapons off. Son's Blood Bowl team sorted in time for Christmas!

Also had another go at painting my berserkers eyes to finish my COC vow. And, surprise surprise, they still look terrible. This is something I really need to learn to do!

Tith I copied all the new points costs into my codexs. I can't find my larger magnets to magnetize my Greyknight strike squads, they are just misplaced.

 

Robwrath try that gem paint gw has (the shiney paint) and then use a glaze over the eye.

TITH Christmas came bloody early.

That completes my collection of main rulebooks...

It looks to me like it arrived about 20 years too late. :p

That's a good haul. The books are reason enough to get that set if you aren't ancient enough to already own them (like myself :p ).

Thanks RobWrath, Chaeron; I'm pretty chuffed about how they turned out. It's crazy, and I don't think I'd ever cut a landspeeder into so many pieces again (And I ran out of the extra Storm Raven thusters from the Fire Raptors I built a while back. They're kinda important). I sure ain't some great converter but I had to have some speeders and they had to be non-40K speeders. So I think it worked. Gah, I love the red but it's different from most of my Blood Angel line troops... it's weirdly frustrating.

Oh, and RobWrath, Travek Dal's suggestion is a good'n with a strong metallic and a GW spiritstone paint. it's what I do for my sons of Horus' eyes.

Oh well, Today in the non-hobby, I got back to town, found my neighbor had borrowed my truck for pulling water and drove it off the road in the freezing rain. I thus spent 9 hours fuming and doing some hobby stuff. So, TiTH, I got a few Christmas presents for some mates done (luckily, not ones on this forum). Got probably another 3-4 hours of work left on 'em.

I might try that for eyes. I totally suck at painting Space Marine eyes.

 

Anyway, TITH I finished (practical completion - I'm sure there are bits and bobs of touching up needed) my COC berserker squad. Here's the champ.

Berserker Champ 3

 

I also finished my build of a Khornate Dark Apostle and built another Lightning Claw set out of Cataphractii bits for my berserker terminators.

 

More pics on my WIP thread.

Dark Apostle & Terminator

TITH I made Christmas tree decorations with my kids. They were all about Minecraft and creativity. I made a shoulder pad from my Spectral Sicarii chapter to bring the Light Of The Emperor to my tree. :biggrin.:

TITH I, in attempt to prep for my next Kill-Team Cassius, decided to try my hand at doing silicone molding for my own personal use. The piece came out quite well for a first attempt and me having no idea what the hell I'm doing :laugh.: Just some air bubbles on the front of the pack:

The real issue is the resin is VERY rubbery. That might be because I made an improper mix? I'm not sure. But it did show me that I can do a 1-piece mold for something with as much depth as a backpack, so Suberei's bike front should be a piece of cake.

 

For those wondering why I'm doing this and making a copy of Suberei's bike front, see post #7503 in this thread.
