scatmandoo Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 This evenings vow update. Green and brown and silver base done. Wash, dry bush and finishing touches left. http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140614_233114.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140614_233046.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Good stuff. Nice colours! What's the hole on the side of the Exterminator? So the sponsons are removable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatmandoo Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 Good stuff. Nice colours! What's the hole on the side of the Exterminator? So the sponsons are removable? Thanks very much. The hole on the side of the Exterminator is as you said, so I can either have sponsons or not. I don't have the doors as this tank is a scrap heap rescue from eBay.

scatmandoo Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 Well vow 2 is finished and i am very happy with the way things are going at the moment. the only thing i want to do is maybe some weathering in the future but i need to practice that before going any further and ruining the tanks. here are some pictures to see; http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_231112.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_231143.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_231208.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_231231.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_231254.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_231317.jpg And to celebrate my success and to push me on further i have decided to do a 3rd vow of a wyvern and another Sentinel as the earlier one. http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_231655.jpg Some excellent work here, really like the camo patterns on the Vendetta!

scatmandoo Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 Latest update with the wyvern being built. The tech adepts have been busy! http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/geekery/20140617_223331.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/geekery/20140617_223345.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Great -and quick- work! Nice detail inside the Valk/Vendetta! The underside is a rather bright blue, but that may be the camera. The upper side camo is great. Looking forward to seeing your Wyvern. You sprayed it black on the sprues? I've never thought of that...no problems getting glue to stick it together?

Thanks for the kind words on the valk/detta. The blue underneath was an aattempt at the blue that was used during ww2 on the underside as obviously camo isn't much use underneath. Still undecided as to either dull it down or just do camo anyway. As a treat here is the cockpit/flt deck, shame I didnt have an orange paint. ... http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-05/20140615_235700.jpg As for the wyvern, progress will continue as of tomorrow as there is a 7th 1k point game tonight that it will be used in. With the undercoating, I thought I would try it, and I used superglue anyhow and it all stuck together nicely including trying to get my fingers attached in the process. I agree with Kier, the tech adepts have been very industrious indeed! Keep it up :D I will. And if a bat rep is wanted I will try to get one sorted. Thanks again!

MithrilForge Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Great Stuff i see you have done a good table top level(although i see the flyer has had more time/love) i'd say that all the rest needs is some washes and weathering and they will be perfect!! i love watching peoples forces grow in front of us(thankyou internet gods ) im enjoying watching this very much and look fwd to what you next bring us...?? and im glad that B&C has Guard now!! cheers, Mithril p.s is this the type of thing you had in mind for the underside of the Valk?? - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatmandoo Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 Bat reps are always good :) Bat rep is on its way today! The guard were victorious! Thanks Mithril, that is the look I was after for the valk and knew I have painted too dark. As for the rest they are definately ready for the table now and I have some of the new speciality paints for rust effects etc now that I need to trial with but I ddidn't want to ruin what I had by doing it wrong!

WarriorFish Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Huzzah! That's brightened the start of my day, well done - I'm eager to read the tale of your glorious victory :D As for testing things out it's something I've got to do too, once my ETL vows are all done. I recommend the underside of tanks for testing :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 15 pics of the glorious deeds too. I will try my best tomorrow to rectify the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Excellent, pictures make batreps much better! Don't worry about the delay, we all know what it's like to have work rudely interrupt hobby time :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatmandoo Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Had some bits spare and while helping the step son build his Storm Talon, I put a couple models together/modified. I am really happy with the custom power axe. And I am really happy with the grizzled vet sgt with shotgun. Saves using scout shotguns. Did it using a flamer strap arm and bonded it on. As always c and c welcome. http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e301/chrisburnett2010/geekery/20140621_221627.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scatmandoo Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Backlog of batreps maybe, but deffo a backlog of painting. Damn hobby being so involving! Do you like the custom power axe by the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Don't we all... though that said mine is looking far better these days thanks to the ETL :) I think the forward blade could do with a bit more as it looks very much like a pick currently (power pick?).

scatmandoo Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 And that of mine. 85% of my armour is done now. Just the endless infantry. I went for power pick axe. Comedy yet functional. ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I don't think the xenos head he lodges it into will be laughing :P I too made the mistake of leaving the infantry until last, but it's a mistake you only make once. When can we expect to see some paint on these guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When can we expect to see some paint on these guys? Yeah will get a game debut on wed I think. As for the infantry, before the vow I had very little painted. Just a 750 list I had for a battlebrothers tourney at warhammer world last year. Paint on these will either be a last minut 4th vow or just general progress.
