Hell Pit Abomination Finished

I finished the Hell Pit Abomination the other day but hadn't got round to taking any photos. So here it is. Hope my friend likes him!

NMM Terminator

I decided to do a NMM Grey Knight Terminatior. I haven't really tried much NMM so thought I best try and improve the little skill I have. I enjoyed it alot, but still the silver looks grey. I think I'm going to need alot of practice. Any way here it is ..

1600 Skaven List

So I'm increasing the points I play Warhammer now. Having picked up the rules quite quickly since last playing in 6th Edition, I believe 1000 points too small. I need more units to get used to before starting to go to tournaments. So heres my 1600 Point Skaven List. Let me know what you think.

WIP Hell Pit Abomination

Tuesday night saw the death of a friend, RIP Dan, so I haven't done much since then. What I have done though is do a bit more on a commission for a friend in Finland. I assembled his watchtower scenery. Lovely piece, and continued work on his Skaven Hell Pit Abomination. Below are pictures, there are still alot more to be done as can be seen but its getting there!

Grey Knight Terminators

Finished off the Terminators. Nice models once again, seems like I'm on commission keep going on how nice the models are!

As usual click the pictures for a bigger view. The models can be found here - http://shop.ebay.co.uk/elfordminis/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686 as of 20:00 GMT.

WIP Grey Knight Terminators

The last few days have been a bit mental for me. I've had quite a big change in my real life situations and quite a few commitments to fufil but all back on track now. I hope!

Today I've been painting some Grey Knight Terminators. These probably have about 7-8 colours remaining so these will be completed tomorrow. The date for the auctions has been set back and back, but I'm confident they will be up tomorrow evening and will last for 7 days.

Once again, click the picture for a bigger and better view.

Grey Knight Purifiers

Hi everybody. Haven't managed to update the blog this week due to my time mostly being else where and on my real life. But I have been painting. Heres some pictures of the Grey Knight Purifier Squad. I plan on the Terminators being completed Sunday and ready for auction. The NMM Terminators will be a week after I expect. Click show more to see some other photos of the squad and click on the pictures to get a bigger better view. Thanks.

Over the Weekend

Over the Weekend I didn't get up to much hobby related. I thought about a few army lists for my Skaven and Orcs and Goblins, I basecoated the Grey Knight Purifiers and Terminators and gave them a wash and that was about it. I plan to get the Purifier squad near to finished by tonight and then tomorrow finish them. I was going to do a little tutorial on how to do the Nemisis Force weapons and the lightning details in them but unsure whether to wait to do a tutorial on the Blood Angels.

Dreadknight

I've finished up the Grey Knight Dreadknight. It was a great kit to make and paint although it reminded me how much I hate metallics. Although easy, very boring. I think I'll be glad when I finish the rest of the metalic Grey Knights :D

Let me know what you think.

1000 Point Battle

So I played Jon's Undead. I thought it was going to be Vampire Counts. I was wrong. It was Tomb Kings he brang to the table. Whilst looking at his army, it seemed so small. He had his Tomb Prince, Liche Priest, 20 Skeleton Archers, 5 Heavy Horsemen, 10 Tomb Guard, 3 Ushabti and a Screamin Skull Catapult. I vastly out numbered him.

1000 Points Skaven

Tonight I'm playing my first game of 8th Edition at 1000 points. I've been slowly coming back into gaming, as I prefered to paint the models rather then play the game. I'm going up against Jon's Undead. Now this could be Vampire Counts or Tomb Kings as he has both, but I'm assuming its Vampires until next month anyway. This is the list I've come up with.

Model Making

Today has seen me finish making most of the models  needed done. I finished the Dreadknight, all 10 GK Terminators and the 5 man Purifier squad. These were all primed too!

I also made my friend and client's Hell Pit Abomination. This will be primed and ready to start painting next week for him.

I'm hoping to get work in progress shots of the Grey Knights tomorrow. I've finished the Dreadknights hammer weapon and starting on his sword. Its about the size of 2 terminators on top of each other!

Making Grey Knights

I've been making the new Grey Knight plastics. They are very easy to make. Just follow the instructons and bob's your uncle, they're done with minimal hassle.

Heres the configuration I've gone with for the Purifier Squad.

I'm going to paint these with Normal Metal paint scheme and the Terminators with a NMM scheme as I need a bit of practice on this.

Time to get priming!

New Blog!

Hi there everyone. This is my first post on this new blog. I plan on documenting all the painting work I do, from my own collection, commissions and other stuff like my army lists and my battles. But first I need to get to grips with how this works!
