Wraith knight Gems WIP

Warseer Forum

So catching you guys up with what I've done over the last couple of weeks and been trying to find time/energy to put it all together to show off. Writing this blog also help me remember how I painted things when I come back later to finish models. Ok enough chat lets get to what I did after the jump

Painting progress October 2015

Hey all. (that's right I'm not dead)

I've been busy and in May went overseas for 3 months so didn't get a chance to post anything.
In the last year (gosh it has been a while) I finished up a couple of things and I am now working on

10x Howling Banshees
5x Striking Scorpions
1x Karandras
4x Swooping hawks
Gems on my Wraith Knight
Hemlock/Crimson hunter
4x Dark Reapers

5x Wraith guard (scythe)

5x Dire Avenger
1x Dark Reaper Exarch with EML
1x Spiritseer (conversion)
2x Falcons 
1x Waveserpent

I will hopefully be putting up some pics of my progress more often so here's hoping.

Warpspiders colour combinations/Techniques.

Hey guys looking for some advice on a colour scheme/ techniques to use for my Warp Spiders. I've been unable to decide what to do with them and I've found the models to be a little finicky.

So how have you guys painted you Spiders?

Any advice or links to tutorials would be appreciated.

Painting Progress: Swooping Hawk

coolminiornot

So I started working on painting my Swooping hawks I've always wanted to have the wings rainbow kind of like the above pic from coolminiornot.  I ended up just gluing the wings on as all my drill bits couldn't seem to drill into the model very well and magnets weren't strong enough when they were small enough to be hidden.

Eldar 1850pts list

Hey all I was wanting to get a 1850pts list painted by the end of the year that I thought would be enjoyable to play so this is my list so far. I've played one game with it and have some thoughts on how to optimize and change it a bit. For now tho i'll keep using it at least until I finish painting the units I want to sub in.

40k Canal/waterway Part4

So here I've sprayed the foam/Bridges black and I was halfway through drybrushing the terrain with the dark gray paint.

40k Canal/waterway Part3

So after a very long break from this project, I decided I needed to at least get it painted so this past weekend I went out bought some Matt Black spray paint and did some painting. 

Wraith knight WIP6

Gosh sorry guys that its been awhile since I posted. I'm not dead here is my progress I've made with the Knight. Hope you enjoy.

40k Maelstrom

Last week I played my first game of the new maelstrom missions.

 Eldar vs Tau. 

We played the 3 tactical card mission what ever its called that is played with the hammer and anvil deployment.

The Table is a mix of Neal from laser cut card's creations with some GW buildings and some custom stuff.

40kartwork

On the road to Completion for my knight and hopefully soon I'll have the rest of my paint list finalized. 

May Painting Challenge

I might not have gotten my painting challenge done completely but I did complete my Guardians and the Striking scorpions. I've managed to make some progress with my Knight .

Wraith Guard Bases upgrade

Just a shout out to skulkers-surprise. I had shown these when I had first made them but since Malduran was wanting to correct the base size on his Wraith Guard on his latest painting challenge.

Quick shout out

Hey all to start off I'd like to say WOW and thanks to natfka for the mention on the blog exchange.

I have some posts sitting in draft currently just need to finish them off. So hopefully you guys will enjoy them.
Once again thanks Natfka.

April Painting challenge

So the new month begins.

Last month I got my Dire Avengers painted ready for the tournament.  

I also started a little work on the Wraithlord (below) mostly to check the looks of a new technique I am looking into. Let me know what you think and if I can do anything to improve it. My basic colour is Warboss green and Kantor blue. I'm thinking of adding a stripe of Green across the head maybe in a "V".

Canal terrain Progress: bridges 2

So I did some more work on the bridges this weekend. Adding some finishing touches to the edges of the railings. The cuts aren't as neat as I wanted but are close enough and it just proves how important measuring and planning is.

Quick Self adhesive drywall tape test

The pic below is what I was trying to go for (with regards to the meshed flooring). This is my attempt to get the same effect. As Daniel Grundy said in a comment before.

Cannal terrain progress pipes/sewer entrance

Using a Pill container to make a sewer entrance.I cut the lid and bottom of the container off and smoothed off any edges. I then used the Self adhesive dry wall tape to add the bars. I put drops of super glue to secure the mesh down.   

Canal Terrain progress bridges

Completed the bridges for my Canal project. Using Plasticard, foam core, and "Self Adheisve dry wall tape" (SAWT). I really like the way they came out, I just need to add some extra details on the bridges and actual canal so almost done.

Combat Patrol tournament

So this past weekend I attended the combat patrol tournament. I unfortunately kinda forgot to take photos *woops* but luckily Neal from lasercutcard and Darryn the master of the "Tie fighter game" managed to get some. My List did well with the losses being due to missed chances and some unlucky rolls.

I ended up coming 3rd which I am quite happy with.

Some other Photos of the event

Getting ready for Combat Patrol :Dire Avengers Pt4

 Finally almost at the end. I just went through to finish off some of the smaller detail, I'm going to for now just finish off the most noticeable little things on the model
I added the Ceramite white  plumes to their helmets and Red sashes.
