codyrstuart Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Progress on Predator- Almost done with all the main colors. Going to give it a good coat of Army Painter Wolf Grey, then wait for my bits to come in. The Baal Pred turret I ordered did not come with a hatch, but luckily I had enough broken hatches and storm bolters to throw something together. The end result is this crazy guy who decided to forgo the storm bolter and use his plasma pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MithrilForge Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 @ Yoyo ninja - your town makes you a spacewolf by default - even though your a space viking, sorry but im keeping my stormwolf :-) ************* VikingsAccording to legend, Grimsby was first founded by Grim, a Danish fisherman.[8] Grimsby was settled by Danes sometime in the 9th century AD. The name Grimsby originates from Grim's by, derived from the name Grim, the Danish "Viking," and the suffix -by being the Old Norse word for village. The legendary founding of Grimsby is described in Lay of Havelock the Dane, but historians consider this account to be myth. In Norse mythology, Grim (Mask) and Grimnir (Masked One) are names adopted by the deity Odin (Anglo-Saxon Woden) when travelling incognito amongst mortals, as in the short poem known as 'Grimnir's Sayings' (Grimnismal) in the Poetic Edda.[9] The intended audience of the Havelock tale (recorded much later in the form of The Lay of Havelock the Dane) may have understood the fisherman Grim to be Odin in disguise. The Odinic name 'Grimr/Grim' occurs in many English placenames within the historical Danelaw and elsewhere in Britain, examples being the numerous earthworks named Grimsdyke.[10] As other British placenames containing the element Grim are explained as referring to Woden/Odin (e.g. Grimsbury, Grimspound, Grime's Graves, Grimsditch, Grimsworne), Grimsby is likely to have the same derivation. ********************** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 @mithrilforge I only see it as an upgrade to your vow!! I mean, of course you can vow it in it's place. I once gifted my best friend a Doom Scythe. Now I want to break the damn thing every time I play against it!! Albeit, my StormGrrr is quick at dealing with it more often than not!! Yoyo - Sorry Brother!! You'll need to acquire your new flyer else where!! End of Line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoyo ninja Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 @ mithrilforge, you would think it the default, but I haven't met any other space Vikings here yet. It's my fiancée that's from Grimsby, I'm from Cornwall originally but I'm not sure GW have any space smugglers/farmers armies!haha. RPR, it was worth a try.

MithrilForge Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Thanx RPR, i'd like to replace the rhino vow with the StormWolf...as time is getting away and i need to get my wolves done so i dont break the pledge! Cheers Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codyrstuart Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Another weekly update on my progress. Most of the tidying up was done, and tried my first rudimentary attempt at OSL on the headlights. My turret and bits came in today, and this is what came of it. I'm happy with it. The flamer tanks will be painted up to look like glowing plasma cells. I was originally going to impale the Cold One heads on the dozer blades to denote the Battle of Keylek Legacy of Glory, but with the weathering I have planned, it would've looked stupid, so I decided to use the heads like raised decorations on the turret. Only thing I'm not sure of is to use the Lizardmen banners on the fuel tank panels, but I'm not sure. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snuggatron Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 My progress thus far: I managed to finish most of the bigger models like the Dred and the Land Raider, as well as some little things like a Terminator and some of the Long Fangs. The number of guys in tedious, detail covered, PA is rather imposing I must say. Note: apologies for the terrible lighting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frater Cornelius Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I love the quality of your photos. Do you use a proper camera for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z00Z Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 my wife's samsung S4 smartsphone. :) Wish I had a proper camera and a lightbox to take decent pics though, the clarity and sharpness are good, the the colours are off. My wolves are a lot greyer and less blue. Hopefully, I'll sort that out by building a cheap lightbox next year. Not a priority at the moment though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its fluorescent or the phone's flash that might account for the extra blueness in the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
