Well, the Landraider is still on hold as I await some stuff through the mail to finish it off!

 

So I have decided to paint up the remainder of my cultists!

I don't really enjoy painting these as much as I thought I would. I have no idea why either, I love the idea of cultists, but I think somewhere in the back of my mind I know they are cannon fodder and not worth the effort!

So yesterday some bits for my Land raider arrived in the mail!

This armour kit is from the Dark Works, and was sent to me by a true gentleman(thanks Biohazard!).

 

I added the candles over the headlights area (as my previous conversion work from about ten years ago had ruined the detail of the lights). I will also be adding some books (donated by Golden Throne's Commander Kraal!) to the front armour. So far so good. I don't feel I can really do much more to this model, the armour plates are just so awesome, they don't need anything else!

I am currently waiting for the undercoat to dry! :D

 

I am also at my gaming club this evening assuming I can shake my cold, so not  a great deal of painting will be done today :(

 

Still, means I should have some pics to share of tonight's game!

Belated congrats for the WD recognition and for finishing off those possessed. Whole unit together does look pretty impressive.For a simple meatshield the cultist looks pretty damn good and that land raider is shaping up very nicely indeed. Very thematic additional decoration.

Work continues!

As I have mentioned quite a few times, I don't own an air brush, so I spent most of my time so far painting red on with a good old traditional brush!

 

Hoping to get a lot more done over the weekend!

Another day, another Land Raider update!

This armour kit is a real joy to paint. It's taken a while and I have had to do the best I can with the blending of the reds without an airbrush. I find the larger the surface area the harder it is to do a decent job. I'm not the best painter of tanks though, so it's all a learning curve!

Thanks Dosjetka! :D

 

Well, yesterday the light was too dark, and today the light seems very bright! Here's a pic of the Land Raider anyway!

You have to take my word for it here (pun intended), the red is darker than this. My poxy camera and photography skills can't seem to capture the correct shade!

 

Anyway, just the driver and the pintle mounted storm bolter and the Lascannons to go. I have literally been putting in eight hour shifts to get this beast finished!

Nearly finished!

I still have to do the two crew men, and then add some Word Bearers Icons and some battle damage, but the end is in sight!
