@evilstu Hold there!

**“galloping” in at full speed on a hobby horse, sporting a plastic helmet with oversized horns, wearing cardboard armor and a hastily sown together mishmash of those ungodly sheepskin throw rugs found at IKEA, wielding his trusty mop aloft with the dangly bits flapping in the breeze (because that’s how you roll when you’ve got dangly bits!) while enthralling all that behold this wondrous sight with a rendition of ‘Ride of the Valkyries’ on the kazoo (not to be confused with the melodica)**

Before you go any further with your conversion there are sights to be seen. Keep the arms and mod the hell out of it with bits. The Norba are interesting but really the hammers are the only selling point.

@mage @evilstu I might need to break out the Mordheim warband I have collecting dust in seeing all the good work. This I will wait for as yes, there is so much resin. Realistically I might just gift the project for Xmas as I don’t play AoS at all. I could change my mind if I really decided to set aside my painting but that’s crazy talk (righting the horned helmet after such a vigorous display of martial prowess)

@mage The airship has come along a little. The detail work is really where I’ve been going at the thing since the model comes in so many pieces. I’ve been filling in gaps with Apoxisculpt and cutting the hull to have the planks look closer to seamless from bow to stern. I’ll probably do some more infill with gloss varnish and then sand it to level.

Color scheme.. I already hate myself for thinking of going NMM but to make it a useful gaming piece I’ll break out my true metals because otherwise I’ll spend too much time trying to be careful in details and I know how much I’m standing by with on the backburner. Aside from that I’ll use a lot of warm neutrals for the ship and bring some life through the dwarves onboard. The airbrush is a great tool for such large areas and will give some good practice for highlighting before I start on my tanks.

 

Now some more random music to let your brain wander with and just get lost in
