A Log of Everything

Only a little work done today, been to busy being social with the family.

Base coats down with the gold, silver and reds. Then they have been washed.

The long parts up nest. Highlights on black and then some simple dry brushing on the metalics

Backpacks finished for the tactical squad meaning they are all ready to be added to the display case with the rest of their fellows.

Doing the backpacks was tedious but pretty quick once i got my head down and got on with it. Gun Metal silver and then back washes, with Agrex Earthshade panel lining.

Then finished the main body and missile laucher for the Deredeo Dreadnought.

Just the arms to work on now for this then it can be added to the group as well

Finally remembered that i had Sigismund and Alex Pollux for the Imperial Fists.

These were both magnatised and used as part of my kill team for Kill team 2018.

will add the display base for Sigismund to my backlog as i never finished that of as well.

So today we had the delivery of some new toys. This will be my gang for a campaign of Necromunda.

So I thought I’d start with a gang that wasn’t in the original game. My plans for painting these will be to implement the heresy scheme for the world eaters in some form. Not sure how yet, but I’ll do some tests before I Dive in and see what happens

Speaking of Heresy, first up it’s time to get around to finishing some outstanding half finished imperial fists.

That’s means today has been spent getting some tactical marines finished off. Finished off the shoulder pads and panel lining on these today. And cleaned up the power packs which have now been Primed averland sunset ready for painting tomorrow.

And While i was doing my Christmas clean also found one of my proudest models that i’ve painted in a storage box and along with that is still probably one of what i think of as the best space marine sculpts out there.

Unleased from their time locked in the Phalanx a Librarian is ready to take his place alongside his brother on the walls in defense of Terra

So time to get around to logging the schem for my battletech forces.

so that means i should paint a new lance to add to the forces.

Tonight and the past few days haveanaged to finish up some terrain pieces for my heavy gear board
