Deneghra WIP

Yesterday I started to paint the Warcaster for my Cryx, Deneghra. Since I already hade based and primed her it was straight to buisness with the painting. I wanted to her to have a the "Cryxian green" feeling on the clothes, so I started with a black base and then added green, and later on Stone grey (VMC) to the mix to get it a bit colder. I will probably do some more work on the robe when I see how the skin and armour turns out.

The spear just got some black and Boltgun metal (GW) on the top. I will add som washes and highligt later on. I gave the armout thre coats of wash, started with Black shade (VMC), followed by Gyrophone sepia (GW) and then an really old ink from GW, purple (it´s from the early -90´s).
Anyway, a WIP and hopefully I will be able to get this mini done by tonight.

Untill next time, happy painting!

Scrap thrall

A few days ago I based and primed a Scrap thrall for my Cryx army (that´s Warmachine), and after about 3 hours of painting, this is the result. The mini should be used for gaming and for that purpuse I think it looks pretty good.
There are two thing left.
One, I will
Uadd some water effect on the base, and for that I will use Still water from vallejo.
Two, I will add some front arc markings on the base, not sure what colour yet, but probably grey or green. I would use grey because of the armour in my Cryx army or green because it´Cryx;)
Still, this is pretty much how it will look on the gaming table.

Untill next time, happy painting!

Lot´s of stuff on my desk

Tonight was a night without painting, but insted I did a lot of priming, basing and so on, the other part of the hobby!
Here are some photos of what´s in the pipeline!
First out is 9 Death company marines for my Flesh tearers army. I bought them secon handed so today I just removed them from their bases, cleaned up some mould lines and drilled the pipes a bit more, then they got stuck to their new base.

Next thing is some minis for Warmachine/Cryx that I just based and primed. I like the feeling of WM so hopefully they will get som paint once I have finished my two first squads of Fleshtearers (tacticals and scouts).

At last are some minis for a gamed called Fury of Dracula, they are fun, but small:) I´ll even give you a pic with one of the FoD minis next to a space marine, for comparision.

And that´s all for tonight folk!
Untill next time, happy painting!

Another WIP on Flesh tearers scouts

Here is another WIP shoot on some Flesh tearers scouts. I decided not to use the GW paint scheme on them, I tried it out, but wasn´t satisfied about the way they looked. Maybe I´m was doing it wrong, since it looks great in WD, but I think this starts to look good as well. The army shall pe painted for use so not to much fancy stuff on them. I do plan to add some weathering later on, but I will take that as soon as I´m satisfied about the armour.

Untill next time, happy painting!

Flesh tearers update

Not so much painting last night, but I started to build some more minis. The Captain is hold together with blue- tac at the moment (not sure about the armory yet), and the DC marine with Thunder hammer will get some shoulder pads and a jump pack later. The marine squad will be 10 mariens strong when they are done.

Apart from this I got the Blood axe kommande FW upgrade kit in the mail this morning, will I be able to stay with my FT or will there be more Orks?

Flesh tearers scouts and some Fury och Dracula WIPs

I started my Flesh tearers a few days ago and last night I assembled almost all of my scouts and did some minor painting on them. I also started to build my tactical squad (pics on them later).

Besides my Flesh tearers I painted some on the Fury of Dracula minis (a comission) and here is the first WIP on them. The FoD minis are much smaller then the GW minis I´m used to paint, and it was a bit of a new experience for me, a lot of fun but I also learned a few new bad words along the way;)

Untill next time, happy painting!

First WIP on a Flesh tearers scout

I while ago I decided to start a Flesh tearers army for Wh40k, since I have had Orks for a while I thought that it would be nice to have something a bit different to paint. So far I have bought myself some boxes but hardlu started to build or paint anything. first squad out will be a squad of 5 FT scouts ared with boltpistol and combat blande.
Here is the first WIP shoot.

So far the army will consist of
1 commander armed with power fist and combi weapon (bolter/melta)
5 Sanguinary guards (2 Inferno pistols)
10 Tactical marines (1 melta gun, 1 missile launcher) and Sergeant with plasma pistol and Power weapon.
5 Scouts with bolt pistol and combat blade, 1 heavy bolter
1 Dreadnought (I´m not sure wich weapon I will choose so I will give him magnets so i can switch weapons).

Next to come is a squad of 5 death company marines and some transport for my tactical squad, but I´m not sure what to choose. A Razorback/Rhino or a drop pod, what to do?

Untill next time, happy painting!
