Congrats man. It looks amazing

 

 

Wow.

 

Good job, dude.

 

Congrats on the win!

 

 

Woo hoo!

 

Man, that is a great reward for the effort :thumbsup:  Stunning models, all of them.

 

"You done good!"

 

 

Congratulations!

 

Thanks for all the kind words guys!

 

Was extremely happy with how they turned out and winning the Troll was a awesome bonus (elites only for me next year so will have to up my game over the next year). I have the 4 other members of the war band to do in the future but will leave that for another time.

 

Now onto full on build mode for Hidden Hands of the Emperor.....i'll post WIP on here and the finished articles in my Vows.

 

Thanks again,

Valaas

So picked up my Dark Imperium box yesterday and my local GW was running a lucky dip for with every purchase after having a big clear out of their basement....

Bought Dark Imperium.....won an unpainted chaos baneblade! Think I may have to revisit my traitor guard at some point!

Looks great! What paints did u use for the Assault Cannons?? I've been trying for that effect forever!

 

It looks  good and is realy simple, the engine outtakes have it as well, but is a little more subtle.

 

1. Use Drakenhof nightshade around the end of the barrel / exhaust

2. Druchi Violet next over slightly further down the barrel/exhaust but overlapping the last Drakenhof strip slightly

3. Final strip using Seraphim sepia again slightly overlapping the previous Druchi violet layer.

 

Works great on plasma guns, flamers, meltas and exhaust.

 

Cheers,

Valaas

Thanks guys,

 

Spot on.....they are Mor'Dethyn from Forgeworld, with power packs swapped out for a newer mark and different weapons swapped in. Simple kit bash to make much more Raven Guard looking Sternguard.

I'm guessing you can't buy those shoulder pads separately? 

 

As Race says, you do sometimes get them on ebay if you need a small number, though they are attached to the arms......the same pads are also on the Raven Guard Dark Fury's, if your looking other option is recasters.....or you could approach one of the shapeways guys and see if they would design something similar.

Going through a tonne of building just now getting the next batch of Raven Guard ready for under coating and batch base coating using the air brush!

 

I'll get some photos up soon showing the post HHoTE, work plan.

 

In the meantime, one of my buddies took a time out from designing some ace new laser cut Necromunda terrain, to laser cut a player specific coaster for each of the guys in the gaming group.

I will rest my mug of coffee/tea or a beer on this bad boy with pride, while building and painting my way through my back log.

Hi Guys,

 

Been in enforced exile, partially due to work going nuts and partially due to a bit of burn out after the 'HHoTE' event.

 

I'll be getting some detailed photos of the final HHoTE vows up tomorrow (need to dig out the light box tonight), to show a bit more of the individual detail, which couldn't be seen in the squad level photo posted in the event log.

 

Finally beat my painters block last night and am back at it again, though I wasn't completely out of action, I've done a tonne of building and will post the built painting line as well so you can see whats up and coming for the 4th Company.

 

Hopefully the updates will start to be a bit regular again from now on.

 

Cheers,

Valaas
