Necron Project – Thokt Crypteks

Shawn — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 01:35:28 +0000

I’m not a fan of the static resin cryptek GW provides so I used a Immortal/Praetorian kit-bash to make my own. And they look pretty damn good.

Thokt Crypteks

I think I’m growing quite fond of this scheme.

Even Moar Necrons – Thokt Dynasty Group Shot

Thokt Dynasty Necrons

Here’s what I’ve done so far. I’m not sold on the bases, but the theme is solid! The 2 extra immortals I finished just before starting Dave’s project.

I’ve 4 more models to do for Dave before I can dedicate any real time to this army, but when I’m clear I will return to them.

Moar Necrons – Annihilation Barge

Shawn — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 02:01:19 +0000

So after a few months painting Grey Knights I needed to do something different to break up the monotony. I’ve had this thing sitting on my desk teasing me for far too long and I had to see what would look like completed.

This thing looks pretty damn cool! I may have overdone it with the line highlights but I don’t care. It’s sweet. These bastards may end up being my army for 40K!

Grey Knights Commission – Terminators Complete

Shawn — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 18:11:57 +0000

I grinded on these bastards for about 11 hours between Wednesday and Thursday of last week to get them finished. And finally they are done and delivered to Dave. I’ve still 4 models to complete for him but this project is just about done.

Done at last!

When I get the last four done, should be next week sometime, I’ll take a few group shots of all the units together.

More coming soon.

Grey Knights Commission – All Marines done

Shawn — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 22:06:49 +0000

I’ve been grinding through this army trying to make up for lost time in December and January. I still have quite a few models to complete, but my goal is to have this army completed and ready for delivery on Sunday the 5th. That will put me 5 days behind. I’m not pleased with missing my schedule, but life happens and you just have to deal sometimes.

Anyway, I’ve knocked out all the marine variants of this force. All that’s left are Coteaz, a pile of termies, and Karamazov. I’m saving him for last as he should be a real treat!

Here are some group shots of what’s done so far:

Here’s the mockup of the Terminators I have to complete next. While it works fine on marines, this style breaks down on larger models. He needs more. I may have to do something special with that text. I’m going to hate it, but they need more detail!

Kind of bland...

Need's more...

Lastly here’s a WiP of Coteaz. Pleased with the armor so far. Where I’m not a fan of this codex, I am a huge fan of this model. That, and how could you not be someone awesome with Torquemada for a name?

Coteaz WiP

Time to get ready for class tonight.

Back in the Saddle! Crowe & Tech Marine Complete

Shawn — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 21:24:13 +0000

My thumb’s fine now and so I’ve been back to painting.

Here’s Crowe and the Tech Marine I started a while back.

Tech Marine

Crowe

Still lots to do and Crowe could use a little more polish. That mandolin really forked my deadline!

Mandolins are Dangerous!!!

Shaved a nice section off of my thumb this morning.

Nice...

Now I can’t paint for 2 days at least. This fooks my commission schedule nicely…

Grey Knights Commission – Psi-Cannnon Marines

Shawn — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 23:11:49 +0000

I’ve been caught in holiday/family madness and have been behind on my updates. Sorry ’bout that.

Anyway I’ve decided to break this project down into similar parts so I can get them done in bunches. I have till the end of Jan to get this project complete and that should be plenty of time.

Here’s the first section complete:

Psi-Cannon Marines

Next section will be 10 Power Sword Marines and a Character. Goal is to get them done by Next Friday.
