It's been a while.........

Wow have I not posted here for a while! Life got pretty manic and to be perfectly honest I was somewhat burnt out from lots of painting and play and needed a break to find the love again.

So I am currently working on painting Astoroth the Grim. I love his fluff and the model pose is superb. I will hopefully post up some WiP pics this weekend if the light is good.

As an after thought, I am thinking about offering a painting service. I think I am of a reasonably good painting standard so thought it was worth a try. If you do wish to contact me about any possible commission work then drop me a mail and we can discuss prices.

Thanks,

How to Magnetise the new GW Baal Predator kit

Hi there,
Second attempt at posting this. The first one was on my old camcorder and the quality was shocking so hopefully this will be better. Its a walkthrough of the way I have magnetised the new GW Blood Angels Baal Predator kit so it can be used as both a Flamestorm Cannon and twin linked assault cannons. I had to make a couple of heavy handed cuts to get it inside YouTube's 10 minute cutoff so apologies for that.

Hope some of you find it helpful,

Cheers

Podcasts I listen too

Just a quick post about a couple of podcasts I listen to, both are great for insight into the 40K game. Looking at tactics, unit synergy and ways to improve your game as well as general game/alpha nerd banter

Mephiston Update

Finally feels like I am getting there! Sword is done although I am not really happy with it and may go back and redo it. Most of the detail is done. I have fubar'd the lower section of his breastplate so that needs redoing. I reckon about another 10 hours worth of painting and he will be done.

Things left to do

1) His back pack

2) His armour

3) His personal banner from the new Codex

4) Attempt at a freehand design on the back of his cloak....eek

Hmm, I don't think I am going to complete my challenge

OK so my Bolter and Chainsword Librarium Painting Challenge is due tonight.

My list to paint was

1x 5 man assault squad (90% done)
1x Furioso Dreadnaught (80% done)
1x Mephiston (70% done)
1 x drop pod (DONE!! \o/)

As you can see from the progress list I am probably not going to get all that done tonight :( Ooops

Oh well for your viewing pleasure here is my Mephiston WiP

More dread and assault squad updates

Apologies for crappy iPhone pics
