Ork Truks and Damonettes 3.24.2013

Got some conversion work done this weekend for Calvin on his Ork Truks. He wanted a few custom builds and i had never done anything with orc builds so i agreed to try. I picked out two nice frames from some models i had laying around and began to plasti-card them up in an orc fashion. I still have 2.5 more ork truks/buggies to build for his Adepticon trip (which i will be attending to pick up some forgeworld models and attend the trade shows).

Worked a little on 4 terminators i have for Ryan. They are also coming along nicely.

On another note i finished up 20 damonettes during an afternoon nap. Only 50 more damonettes to go and then on to 60 seekers.

Ill be busy till the first of May, but if you have painting/converting needs please let me know and we can work something out. Ill be in Tennessee till Saturday, so to the chaos bretheren, "keep killing the emporer scum, till i return!"

FBI alert "THAT GUY" spotted at the INDY GT

There are rumors floating around that "That Guy" was spotted at the local Mexican Resteraunt "EL RODEO."

Witnesses say that he was seen comsuming heavy quantities of adult beverages and hooting it up.

At approximately 8:23pm, "That Guy" vomited on two of his friends and right infront of a very attractive girl standing in line to pay for his meal before disappearing to the lavatory.

Reporter "Randy Savage" found a bystander outside and this was how it went down.

Savage - Sir, sir, what happened
Jones - (who was on the ground laughing or crying we dont know) "that guy" just let it go. He looked a little glassy eyed. I didnt think he would pull out the big guns again, but before he did, he warned everyone back up back up, "i got this!' I dont even know where i am , Exclaimed Jones.

Follow up
Savage - Jones was found in a metal institution with 7 other Indy GT members in white rooms. When asked for comments all of them rocked back and forth muttering "that guy, that guy that guy.

Warning - if you see that guy, report it to the local authorities.


Dancing with wolves

A buddy of mine wanted me to paint a pack of wolves and a 5 man Forgeworld terminator group. To make a long story short we showed up at the Indy GT a few weeks back and they had a three color minimum. I jumped in real quick to help a brother in need (he had 3 drop pods and numerous miniatures still to pain and game time was 12 hours away). I painted them rather quickly, but really didnt have the time to put the effort into it, plus i was half drunk. It didnt help 4 of us were painting in the light of a hotel room. I can't sat what a difference the right tools and lights make. On top of all that i was using paints i didnt have experience with. You would think it doesnt make a difference, but when i got them home and put them on the bench i seen the "light."

Anyway this is a fairly basic paintjob. He gave me free roam of what to do. Here is the color scheme.

Base - Black
Layer - Mechanicus Gray
Layer - (Striping) - watered down layers of admin gray (thin layers)
Wash - Boab Black (yes i still have a large supply)
Layer - reapplying stripy water down layers of admin gray
Glitz Yellow - Righ Shoulder pad
Khone Red, Wildrider Red and bloodletter for the hair (boab to darken the roots)
Gun metal - to scratch up the armor and stipple some battle damage
Dwarf bronze
Turquois Blue for a few random pops and gems
Army painter tufts of dead grass
Rust weathering powders (dark and fresh rust) by Tamiya
GW - Scrotched grass
Snow effects by ???

Anyway I did exceed the 3 color minimum and hopes he liked how they turned out
1 teminator and 9 space wolves (Ryan's)

Some time

My Chaos Space Marine Sorcerer in Terminator Armour
 
It has been some time since I personally made a post on here. I seem to always be moderating and editing posts of "Jacky" and publishing comments from others. So I will take this time to post some pictures of my centerpiece to my Tzeentch Chaos Space Marine (CSM) Ally HQ Choice. My Tzeentch Sorcerer in Terminator Armour. Now figure as shown now is Force Staff, and Power Fist. Which is redundant for WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get... or "Whizzy-Wig") Later additions will see this man have a combi-flamer or plasma magnitized onto his armour somewhere. This miniature is HIGHLY detailed resin kit. Took about 2 hours to clean him up (to my standards) and total of about 6 hours of painting (first model I have actually painted in 7 months from start to finish without other "projects" interfering. If it was not for my persistant girlfriend Kayla, this piece would go like the rest of my 4 armies (not a single model painted). I really need to thank her for her persistance and pressure to finish this model. This will be the basic scheme of my Tzeentch army. The 4 colours of blue in the armour matched with the bright gold really bring out the Egyptian theme I like so much on the "Fluff" of Tzeentch. Now I need to bring this to the rest of my army, (once assembled LOL)


I now will leave you with some more photos.




 
 
 

Mr Blue and and revisiting unfinished models

mr blue 50%
Well, whats happened in a week? I finished off and older daemon prince, Mr. Green. Skarbrand is almost 100%, and i created another Slaanesh prince, Mr. Blue. Mr Blue is a combination of a old plastic model from a kids toy, Left damon prince arm, Tyranid Hive Tyrant magnatized wings, A tyranid mawloc headpiece for shoulder pads, and a viking helmet from an old toy, plus two tyranid sything arms coming from his back. There is something so fun about creating things that dont exist in the 40k world stright from your imagination. He has sat a while (approx 6 months), until last night i got struck with the creativity bug. Also in rotation is 10 daemonettes. I chose regular fleshtones to represent this first squad of 20. Canadian flesh, bestor flesh followed by a nice elf flesh with a reikand flesh shade glaze. the hair is a nice wet blend of khone red to mestiphon with wildrider red hillights followed with a bloodletter glaze. They are about 40% finished. I decided with them to make my own bases as opposed to using aftermarket resin bases. There are numerous necron trpohies scattered among their bases.

Skarbrand Who?

So, Skarbrand. One of those Warhammer 40k Monsters that’s never had a model.  I wanted to do this model for sometime as I find the creativity they offer to the modeler based on the fluff is the fun part.
Although it’s about 70% complete I will discuss what has been done.
