Ork Trukk's.  WIP Templars.  Xenonauts!

6/27/2014

Comments

 
It's finally friday.  Sometimes weeks just drag...especially when you are waiting for your first codex release in 6 years.  Supposedly it's a mixed bag...I hear my killa kans are going to be crying.  We shall see!  In the meantime, I threw some paint on my ork trukk's, did a layer on some Templars for ETL, and played some Xenonauts!
Picture
If you've ever wondered....gee, I wonder how bad Greg's stuff looks like right when he starts...well here you go.


This is pretty much a super thin layer of ivanden darksun over a 50/50 boltgun chaos black base coat.  It needs a good coat or two more before I can start actually working on washes, highlights, etc.

Supa Kannon, Runt Bot, Organization Done!

6/25/2014

Comments

 
Welcome back my fellow hobbyist friends!  This week I've been working on assembling my ork runt bot and ork Supa kannon...which I am finding out is a horrible recast.  I've also finished my reorganization (in terms of moving and furniture), and now just await my paint trays!

Picture
The ork runtbot is a pretty cool model.  It's a shame no rules were ever released for it.  I was hoping to possibly use it as either a mega-armored warboss, or a deff dread.  It's a bit small for a deff dread though (here it is on a 60mm base).  I also don't like the default pose which is very hunched over.  It's hard to see any of the models details.

Morkanaut Magnetizing and Steam Sale Browsing

6/20/2014

Comments

 
Welcome back friends!  I hope you are as excited as I am.  The steam summer sale, and the ork codex goes up for pre-order today!  Woo!!!! Well I'm excited, my wallet and bank account aren't!

I spent a lot of time working on the Morkanaut in the last few days, as well as shuffling around more things in my reorganization.
Picture
So here he is! Quite an impressive model.  Lot of detail and work into this guy.  Thanks to fellow bloggers, I was able to magnetize all sorts of goodies on him!

Watching paint dry was a great source for tips, as well as how to magnetize the Mork/Gorkanaut.  The ideas I use are direct from his video and guide!  On to my build!

IKEA Cabinet, Building Gorkanaut, Some Ork Talk

6/18/2014

Comments

 
What a week!  Most of my free time went into continued reorganization of my painting/hobby area.  I worked on building a Gorkanaut, an Detolf cabinet, and excitedly read about all the upcoming ork releases! Not every blog post can be about finished models...I don't know how some of you guys do models so quickly!
Picture
My first major project was putting together the IKEA Detolf cabinet.  This a a rather inexpensive safety glass enclosure (which is pre-notched for lighting) that many hobbyist use to protect and display their models.

Until this point, I've had them sitting on an open shelf.  Exposed to dust...and my somewhat faithful companion Render the cat.

Upgrading Paint Station! Inquisitor, Bases, Gork/Mork

6/13/2014

Comments

 
Welcome back!  I spent the last few days reorganizing my entire painting/building area.  Don't have as much progress in my painting, but it's REALLY nice having a nice work area now!
Picture
This is my old work area.  Cluttered, messy.  Difficult to find paint.  Poor lighting.  It's also the dining room table.  (You can tell I live alone!)

I decided it was time to revamp this setup.  I'm trying a "read more break" to see if it changes how the blog rolls post these updates.  If it doesn't do anything, I'll go back to my standard style.  (Tell me if you like the breaks better or not!)

New Projects, New Techniques, New Orks!

6/11/2014

Comments

 
Welcome back internet clickers!  I hope this bit of text is enough to tingle those index fingers to bring you from the blog roll, into the amazing world of feed your nerd!  That was pretty ridiculous. I won't do that again.

But what I will do, is talk about what I'm working on this week!
Picture
I'm working on the four HQ's for my Black Templar ETL vow.  I'm painting a counts as grimaldus (new chaplain model), a Witch Hunter Inquisitor (with a null rod, book, inferno pistol, and power armor), A terminator chaplain (what a cool model), and Helbrecht.


At this point I've just finished priming the models and putting a base coat on the the bases.  I always like doing the bases first, helps keep me motivated.

Storm Talon (Templar Style) Finished!

6/6/2014

Comments

 
Put a cross on it and it's done.  Calling a stop on another project.  The storm talon is looking great, and I'm preparing to start my next ETL vow.
Picture
Since last time I did the following to the storm talon.

1) Sealed it with purity seal.

2) Highlighted all the metal bits.
3) Orange highlighted all the red bits.
4) Finished working on the guy in the cockpit
5) Sponged wear and painted chips on it.
6) Used weathering powders to add soot to the gun and turbine vents/exhaust.

Black Templar Storm Talon Progress, Ork Supa Kannon

6/4/2014

Comments

 
Hey everyone! I'm back from New Orleans.  Had a wonderful time visiting my sister and hanging out with my lovely lady...but now it's back to serious plastic business!  I was able to work on my storm talon yesterday, and also purchased a few goodies!

Picture
I finished the line edgework (much like the hunter/stalker), base metallics, and the first wash.  This is just the base red at this point, and will soon get it's second layer + wash/highlight.

The line work on this one is a bit messier.  The sharp angles plus a degrading brush caused them to be a bit slopier.  I'm telling myself that it's an aircraft, so it should be a bit less clean.  We will see how I feel when it's completely done!


This is also not it's final form.  I'm currently hunting ebay for drop pod fins at a decent price after seeing a tutorial from Danny over at hand of junk!

Picture
Danny's conversion is simple, and looks quite cool.  I'm going to modify his design to still keep the turret on the chin, but otherwise I like the new placement of the missiles and longer wings.
