This looks super tidy - awesome work on the edges and all the rivets. What colours are you using for the main body of the tank? Specifically the dark grey/green? hull. How do you get that cold hard metal look?

The grey is Mechanicus Standard Grey washed with Nuln Oil and highlighted with Fortress Grey.

The metal is Leadbelcher washed with Nuln Oil and lightly highlighted with Leadbelcher.

Nothing too strenuous.

The Sex Cannon painted another tank? Whaaaaaa?
This time, it's one that can and will blow itself to pieces!






Real talk: Tte Executioner's probably my favorite Leman Russ variant, and I think it's super cool that I have one, now!

And here's the happy Russ family so far:


I still have three more Russes to build and paint: an Exterminator, a 2nd Demolisher, and a 2nd Eradicator. I sure am glad and I'm not tired of painting tanks! Next up: a Hydra!


This looks fantastic! I'm super excited to see these guys in person at NOVA (if you're still coming).

NOW it's done. Added some scorch marks, bullet holes and other battle damage before lacquering it. Really happy with how it turned out - except for this loving white dust that seems to somehow end up in the final varnish coat -.-;

Edit: wHatever the hell those little white flakes are, they came right off when I gave 'em a little bit of a brushing with a drybrush. Whew. Got to try that with the Knight when I'm at the mancave next.

I think of this song when I see your model:

Due to a (bad) idea I had when somewhat under the influence, I've embarked on my first bit of real sculpting - customising a new mount for my KoW Berserker Lord...

Posing on the mighty steed (as it was when it arrived);


Armoured chestplate progress;


Started on the leather strapping;



After the leather's done and cured, I'll be attaching 'pauldrons' which splay out from the chestplate, and modelling on a helmet and gorget, as well as some more bits around the saddle and legs.

I just picked up a miniature from 1976, so its been sitting around for 40 years without any paint on it and has that sort of greyish patina that lead gets. Is there any cleaning any of you know of that should or should not happen before I paint this guy up? I am unsure of the best care for lead figures other than you definitely don't want to keep them in scented wood boxes (mainly cedar) lest you invite lead rot to inhabit them.

Feel the colours offset each other pretty well. The official scheme is a little too dark for my liking, so I went half way.







I just started working on my Yarrick, too. Mine will not look as cool as yours. Your Steel Legion are better than mine and I hate you for that.

I finished my first 6 Orc Blood Bowl Players!












I really love these models. Some of the best work I've ever done. Interestingly enough, I find checks to be a lot easier to paint than dags! I though it would be the other way around!

The emblem on their chest plates is a freehand orky maw with red fangs, as the team is called Da Red Fangz. I think the Blitzer is my favorite.

EDIT-I bought one of those Tao lights and it's amazing. Ghost Hand recommended them on his show, and he's right, they're fantastic. I don't know how I painted without one before.

Love them! Can you tell us about the yellow? What paint are you using?
I'm currently painting a Varag, where I planed a small checkered piece, will see how that works out.

Also whats a dag?

Thanks! I love yellow Orks, too. I use GW paints. Averland Sunset base, Yriel Yellow layer, Seraphim Sepia shade, Yriel Yellow highlight, Flash Gitz Yellow Highlight.

Dr. Gargunza posted:

"Dag" in this case is the triangular design you see on a lot of Ork models where checks might go (think pennants, backgammon triangles, etc.)
 
The Sex Cannon: I just listened to you and SRM on the latest 40K Badcast, and I gotta tell ya, it's great seeing these players go from your discussion to finished paintjobs.  Keep up the good work, you two!

Thanks, man! Tell your friends!

Are you ready for some football?


It's a Monday Sunday night party!


This friend seems almost too rowdy...


I went with a classic Gouged Eye color scheme for Varag because he's their team captain. With SRM's help, I found the old, old color scheme for the Chaos All-Stars, and painted Morg'n'Thorg in that dark green and red scheme, because I believe that was the team that made him famous. My team is currently killing it in my BB league, so I don't know if I'll ever actually use these guys, but they were a blast to paint.

Do you mean Glart? Then yes, I will! He's one of my absolute favorite Star Players. I'm planning on buying and painting all of the Star Players so anyone can use them in my league. Next up: Mighty Zug. Then: Griff Oberwald. Then: Hakflem Skuttlespike. Hopefully after Skuttlespike they will have released some more for me to paint!
