City Fight!

Last night, while I was waiting for Belial's wash to dry, I started working on my newest terrain project!



So far, it is what you see. 6 2x2 squares painted black. Not to impressive, I know. I'm hoping today after work though, I will be able to make it to the local craft store and pick up some plastic canvas to cover the table with. Once I have that down, and painted silver, the base of the table will be complete.

My plan eventually is to be able to use the modular squares to have either a city or space hulk terrain set up. I still haven't worked out how I'm going to make corridors and such, but its still a ways off, so its not a huge deal right now.



I also saved this piece of cardboard like substance from the ravages of the local trash man. It came from the bottom of my wife's new steam cleaner box, but to me, it looks a whole lot like some sort of manufactorum or something. In the next week or so, after the table is done, I'm going to take some time to slap some paint on this as well. I think it will do just fine as a center piece of terrain for a battle somewhere in space.

Beginnings of Belial


Started to paint up my version of Belial tonight. Seeing as how he is what makes Deathwing a legal army, I figured I should get him painted up and ready for the tabletop.

So far, I managed to get the armor washed with Devlan Mud to give it the appropriate color, and that's about it. It takes a good 45 mins for the wash to completely dry, so I didn't have much of a choice but to let him sit and dry for most of my painting time tonight.

Tomorrow I should be able to get the cloak painted green, and all the bells and whistles on the armor painted the appropriate colors. I'm hoping on Friday to do the highlighting on the edges of the armor and cloak, and that should finish up the mini. Lets see if it happens though...

Deathwing Progress

I've been busy for the past week or so working on my Deathwing army, even though in the last post I said I would work on Tyranids. I've got plastic ADHD, I can't help it. Anyways, I've always wanted to make a Terminator with a cyclone and thunderhammer with stormshield, so I did it. And I must say, the end result is a pretty spectacular looking Terminator.


Work has also began on the 1st Land Raider for the company. I have yet to get to doing the sponsons or assault cannon , but the hull and 1 door is 99% complete. 



Hopefully in the next couple days, I'll be able to post up some pics of a finished Land Raider, and then maybe I'll get around to actually working on the Zoanthrope.
