Kierdale Posted June 22, 2021 Author Share Posted June 22, 2021 Thank you! The four minderz are done but for their teeth and jewellery, and the two copper poles are WIP. One minder has a bracer of flayed Space Wolf skin, complete with a tattoo. Today’s lunchhammer will be the grot standard bearer sitting on the weirdboy’s chest.

Evil Eye Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 The Weirdboy looks top-notch, and I love love LOVE that banner. Proper Oldhammery goodness! Gives me a distinctly Mesoamerican/Aztec vibe too which is cool.

Nexus17 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I like your overall theme, which is creative and really well executed, but I love the little touches you've incorporated - the white scar armour shard, the space wolf tattoo - all absolutely fantastic!

MithrilForge Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Top Notch... I'm a White Scars fan so I'll take the trophy stuff as a "Compliment" cause only a good fight! would warrant a trophy of such Distinction This is looking just as great as the last one!!

Proper Oldhammery goodness! Gives me a distinctly Mesoamerican/Aztec vibe too which is cool.Thanks. That’s what I’m aiming for. And talking of banners… Another YOINK! :D I’ll be doing glyphs on this side too. And the other side (also WIP: more vomited spectral snakes, and glyphs).

Oops! :D After this model I want to finish the nine nobs (they’re really close to completion) and then I’ll do an army shot. I do need to put this army aside soon and get ready for armies on parade (my AoS Anvilgard vs Seraphon. The latter of which I haven’t even made yet). Wow, the green on those snakes is amazingly vivid. It communicated the otherworldly nature of it brilliantly.Thanks.

01RTB01 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Amazing. Utterly amazing. I've been following you on twitter and your stuff is mind blowing. Will you be snaffling some snaggas and other stuff when they arrive? I'm waiting for weather to settle to get my Gargant painted up...

Kierdale Posted July 6, 2021 Author Share Posted July 6, 2021 Thanks! I definitely want the snaga box when it comes out! :) Who are you on Twitter? I got SpeedFreeks when It first came out but I never got around to painting the terrain, so that’s what I did most recently. It was difficult to know when to stop. I could’ve kept adding colours and decals…but I think they’re functional :tu: I didn’t want them being more colourful than my army! One thing I did figure out was a good way to do heavily rusted metal, which I did on the sheets of corrugated iron. I base-coated them scrag brown, washed Agrax then sponged on Rhinox Hide and Leadbelcher and I really like it. I’m still working on the choppy nobs -so few bits to finish but taking so long! Did add a service stud to make one trophy skull into a marine skull. It’s a pin head. Nice and simple. toaae, Brother Captain Vakarian, Azaiel and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336550-waaargh-grimsnaga-smasha-squig/page/12/#findComment-5717068 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 .... It all turned out Really Really Superb in the end... awesome work bud I'm going to borrow the "heavily rusted metal" tip ... thankyou for that. I think your attention to detail is what sets you apart from the average joe 40K/AoS modeller... Is it that good ol Japanese attitude of doing everything the absolute best you can that creates such awesome work !?!?... I find myself spending much longer than I should looking at your completed models Cheers, Mithril Kierdale 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336550-waaargh-grimsnaga-smasha-squig/page/12/#findComment-5717340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted July 7, 2021 Author Share Posted July 7, 2021 Thank you very much! Actually I’m British :D have been living here 20+ years though. I got four kommandos done today and will finish the 5th (and the squad) tomorrow: The nob ended up reposed a few times. I might have to do some GreenStuff bandages to cover sloppy bits. One’s lobbing the squad’s tankbusta bomb. Another has a Glasgow Smile :D You can tell they’re kommandos coz they’ve got sights. ;) I figure these boyz are mad enough and bad enough that the rest of the warband daren’t call them cowards. Not to their faces, anyway. They’ll have red war paint and will have covered their skin in dust to make themselves red like the earth.
