I wanted to get some height on the knight and make it look a little like a trench so Ive gone cork crazy

Literally chopped up corks with pva

Lets see how it covers tomorrow!

The feet are now attached to the base.

Theres a slight change to the nearest toe to bend it down so it fits in with the base but apart from that its completely standard.

 

I love how it looks a mess before it gets its base colour 

 

Hopefully I can get the base finished tomorrow and then give it a chance to dry out

The cookie dough base is now all painted up

The feet need weathering into the base but I'll do that once the legs are on

Ive made a bit of progress on the interior

I ended up with a resin cast gun pod off the top of a stormraven in a mixed ebay bits purchase so I thought Id use that up as it wasnt a great cast. 

Ive built the seat around it and used a land raider engine in the back

This is still rough and needs detailing and riveting but what do you think?

2 updates in one night!!

 

I got more detailing done than I thought This just evolved as I added bits

Tomorrow night is rivet night :(

Good work, lots of nice detail. The only thing I'd add is that it's always called a throne, so some form of arm rest type bits would really complete the look :thumbsup:

 

Thanks Guys

I did think of building a throne but with the bits I had it wasnt  going to happen. Now the cockpits built even if I drop arms onto it they will be lost under the pilots arms so I think its too late.

 

I'll do it properly if I get a knight Errant ;) 

Thanks Guys

Ive finished the interior (minus pilot) so it just needs painting. Im thinking cream?

Remember kids, never skip leg day!

 

Im not going to do the final highlight until the plates are in as a load of it is covered once they are on. 

 

The first leg plates are in for undercoating so I'll see how it looks soon

Airbrush is the way forward

 

Covered it with lead belcher

spray from below with leadbelcher + 50% black

spray from above with mithral silver (old old pot) 

wash with 50% medium and ink

 

I've then picked out the hydraulics in light silver and a it of a wash with sepia.

 

It all needs highlighting so its far from done at the moment

*endless string of cursewords*-damn this is a good thread.

 

​Do you do tutoring?

 

Thanks. Its so slow painting each mini as I would if they were different models but my army is building 

If Im honest Im still learning and usually make stuff up and see if it works. At the moment Ive been lucky on how things have turned out. 

Id say watch some of the better you tube vids as they do some great tutorials

Im working my way up

Ive got the leg armour about done

 

Im going to put some script under the skull but want it all together before i add more as its looking busy.

 

When does the etl finish!!!
