I was going through your posts then noticed they were from five years ago! :teehee: :facepalm:

 

but really cracking thread!! Expect more likes in the near future!

 

Thanks... has it been that long!!

 

I paint and dont play so its just a hobby which comes in fits and bursts. 

The thread is littered with projects that are 90% painted then something new and grey comes along that grabs my attention :)

Space Marine vehicles DO look better in camouflage, than in the bright, "Shoot me! I'm right over here!" colors that Games Workshop tends to use.

Im going to redo the screen on this.

I went too dark with the target on it and it needed to be a very dark green not black

Someone over on Facebook did a conversion to IG that looked like Avatar walkers. 

 

Do you have a link to this?  I've been trying to give sentinels arms and its pretty difficult.  I actually also got an Invictor to try but it just turned out too large for me, so scrapped the idea.  Your stuff is all awesome btw =)

Hi, Ive had a look but cant see where I saw it. Have you seen anvil forge have some walkers that look like battle suits.

I think the problem with trying to make these look like Avatar walkers is that the arms are too stumpy so you cant get them to reach across the body

Gaunts Ghosts have landed just in time for Fathers day in the UK. 

Thats my present taken care of. 

 

I just had a sneaky look at the sprue and as they are monopose there isnt much you can do with them

The weapons are separate and there are a couple of them that would make good stowage on tanks so Im going to try and get a one sided press mold (for my use) to use in some of my scratch builds. Ive got an idea for a scout invictus battle suit....

 

got to get 6 plastic ghosts finished first though.... !

1 down... its only taken 1.5 weeks!

Im doing a slight variation on the colour scheme so that the shin guards and pads are the same as my IG troops.

Instead of the tan fatigues they have the normal black

With the release of the DKOK minis I liked the look of their guns,backpacks and ammo

With a bit of work they fit.

Get a 3d printer they said... it will be fun they said.....

Now I have a pile of grey shame and blue shame.....

First scout vehicle off the line already salt weathered.

One thing the printer is great for is stowage. I'll never be short of cans, boxes, tarps etc again

He's reappeared! :woot:

 

Hope to see that pile of shame being completed and posted up here! :yes:

 

Yep back on the painting horse again. Had a break as had a busy period but back on it. 

Treated myself to a resin printer and started to play with Blender. The first thing I did was rescale some of the torsos and legs so still using mainly GW parts but it makes it great for scaling. I'll drop some pics on later 

 

Main problem I have is a lot of my GW paints have dried up (properly dried up) :)
