    Not an amazing picture but I am happy with how he came out. My first crimson fist :D

    Thought I might as well show my meager attempts.

    This is the first vehicle I ever tried to put together (so that explains the shoddiness :D ).

    Valkyrie1.jpg

    This one you can see one of the guys inside that I put a basecoat on and never got around to actually finishing him or the gun (I get distracted easily):

    Valkyrie2.jpg

    I actually made an effort with the inside (before I realised that you don't really get to see it). I even colour coded the buttons for the door:

    Valkyrie3.jpg

    And here you can see the cockpit where I painted the pilots in a base coat, then glued the canopy on before I realised that I wouldn't be able to finish the men. :(

    Valkyrie4.jpg

    I painted the Valkyrie before I had a clue about washes or drybrushes, so it's a bit of a mess. I'm debating whether to repaint the whole thing, or to leave it and get a new one (or maybe just something else).

    The next one is a War Mamuk (I think that's what it's called). It's a standard model with the only change I made being the tusks that I carved some left over frames to look like the stakes, and used greenstuff to make a kind of rope binding for it:

    WarMumak1.jpg

    Here's a shot of the base, which I'm kind of proud of. The only problem is that the rest of the model blocks it out:

    WarMumak4.jpg

    Here's a couple of the guys on top. I started painting them all different colour schemes so they look a bit eclectic:

    WarMumak2.jpg

    And here's a close up of one of the guys. Am I the only one who can't do the bloody eyes? They all end up with huge eyes and so all seem to be running into battle startled. And they all end up looking ugly as f*ck too, but that's another matter :D :

    WarMumak3.jpg


    And just like the Valkyrie, it's still a work in progress. I'm trying to figure out a good way of doing the tops of the tusks to darken them up, and I'm going to put some string around it to make it look like ropes connecting the various baskets.

    I never paint the eyes on my models, there just to inctricate :)

    Putting a Vindicator together atm. I like your use of the Defiler CC weapon on the Dread. Is is the Black Reach Dread you used there?

    it wasnt the black reach dred, you can tell cos the black reach one has shorter exhaust pipes omn the back

    ARISE (again.)

    This is probably about the tenth model I've ever painted. It's the first time I tried highlighting and shading.

    My stuff, updated every now and then: http://w-ired.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=2907

    Also, good job on the highlighting/shading Lyaiera!

    You should try using a wash on that model to finish it off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,818 ✭✭✭Lyaiera


    I did use a wash. Gryphone Sepia on her skin, top and jeans, Devlan Mud on the weapons and Baal Red (I think that's the name) on her hair. I'm pretty pleased with it to be honest. Probably the best model I've painted.

    @bloodclaw Really like that Kan! Nice detailed work on it!

    My bad, I normally pile on a black wash on my models so it really darkens it out. I'm not particularly familiar with brown/etc washes, so wouldn't notice.

    And good stuff plastic caveman, I particularly like the monk. He reminds me of Necromancy! What's he standing on?


  • Registered Users Posts: 52 ✭✭Plastic Cavanman


    It's a greenstuff base made to look like flagstones, I painted him up for Warhammer Quest so I thought making a dungeony base would fit.

    Some terrain has been made to aggravate the little men (and women) that inhabit my gaming table. It's more Deathworld Flora and some not so lethal plantlife too;

    So, I am apparently unable to post images due to being a new user. The desire to show off shall not be so easily thwarted however, so I ask that you behold the current project, Magnus the Red. It's actually a good deal closer to being done now, I'm just too lazy to take a more up to date picture right at this very moment.

    //scontent.fdub5-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.15752-9/41308632_258969244758040_5821542601647456256_n.jpg?_nc_cat=100&_nc_ht=scontent.fdub5-1.fna&oh=6f6ee90eb2c8898f4f93ecc6d3a8d7c7&oe=5C589F96

    Just chuck a https: in front of that URL and it should direct you to the correct image.
