right here goes after years away I've decided to start up again and start off hwere i left off. i've been digging through my old boxes and spares, found all my 1/2 completed projects. and non starters that had all the pieces placed into little self sealing bags ready to be built. so here goes.... desk and bits at the ready  note old paint box with old eavy metal picture stuck to it. its a bit hard to make out in the image above, but so far i've done a a marine wolf standard. I noticed Gw had released snow flock and HAD to guy it and make use of it! got 1/2 converted dark angel command squad to get going. 1/2 way through a Ultramarine Vet with Termie arms (not sure if it works but so far it looks ok) got a storm boyz ork to start chaos undead of sorts and a marine vanguard. so thats all started and pics to come of all tomorrow. until then here's a few photo's I took this eve of my old stuff Tau pathfinder  and http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00052.jpg Vet assault Ultramarine He's WIP atm needs a shoulderpad and decals  jet smoke made from wirewool http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00054.jpg Ork in mega armour  http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00056.jpg http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00057.jpg Mutant Chaos Worldeaters  http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00059.jpg Imperial Sentinal  http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00061.jpg http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00062.jpg http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00063.jpg Ork Killa can  http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00065.jpg http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00066.jpg Gorkamorka skiff thingy  http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00068.jpg http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00069.jpg Knight  http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00071.jpg another Killa Kan  http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00073.jpg http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v253/pete68547/oldies/?action=view¤t=DSC00074.jpg all these were taken really quickly with my old digi cam in my living room with the living room light on and a 60w daylight bulb to light them. a piece of toilet roll masking taped over the light to act as light scrim. very very un professional but it works. the images were then put into photoshop and levels adjusted to get the whites looking white (i didn't have and daz  )I hope you like what i've done so far. sorry for no 100% current WIP's but its a start!

Nice work, my personal favourites are the tau and the Sentinel. And that Gorkamorka thing is class. Oh how I wish GW still did some of the older games. |

Some really nice stuff here, I'm surprised more people haven't posted. That Gorkamorka vehicle is ace, I've wanted onefor ages but they are rock to get hold of. Do you drybrush a lot? Everything has a nice texture to it.

Go post in someone's topic that you normally wouldn't

Nice mixture of stuff and great to see older stuff like the skiff. Is that a space wolf on the painting station? |

Keravin: it is a space wolf! when i noticed g-w had released snow flock i had to make somthin, I had an old wolf standard in pieces after he had an accident. rebuilt him and added snow. The Antipope: I do dry brush alot. tring to get out of the habbit. as it tends to give a furry texture i'm not too fond of. |

right here's some proper PIP not work that i did 2 years ago here's marine Captain/Sag vet guy. he's just an experiment to get back into it though i do think it he looks great with Termi arms. the blue is in need of high lighting, the gold on the shoulderpad and the stormbolter is far from finished. loads more purity seals to go on and i need help with putting writing on the purity seals and writing on his armour. a pen good for this? what about the white text on his armour?   |

Some really nice stuff, the Sentinel in particular is excellent. And that SM looks really good, loving the use of Termie arms. Yay for Gorkamorka and Rebel Grots (superbly painted too)!! I still have the Gorkamorka books, and now Mawa has started an Ork army, fully intend to force him to play it

hi all a quick pip update. i've added purity seals, and various other bits. also chopped the termi shoulder and added a marine shoulder pad and i feel the scale of the termi arms works. a few more pics of my other projects later    highlighting and shading still to be done on the scull on the shoulder. white to be painted on the U of the shoulder, and the banner and banner pole top to be done. decals to be added. |

Use a thinner brush if you can for the writing, and thin your paint a bit more. Then the writing might look a little better, just at the moment it doesnt seem as neat as the rest of the model is. I do like that gold, very nice mate. |

awe inspiring! cheers never knew i had it in me!.... when i made the base i imagined him on the top of a small outcrop next to ruined outpost. He's over looking a vast ruined industrial landscape. Recently a squad of cadians had been sent into the sector. Initial reports were good then they dissapeared with no contact. Marines have been deploid to find out where the squad are. Only to find the whole area littered with thier equipment, and no signs of any life forms........ the base is with the nids head is for a scout. one of the older metal ones (he's got a chainsword raised above his head) the bolter arm is something special not sure if it'll work Edited by greeble, 26 Mar 2009, 11:38 AM.
