 Mech one step from conversion finish, in that I need to drill out the barrels. I tried sculpting the extended barrels in a tube but they were never even enough for me, so now I'm just going to go ahead and drill them out with my dremmel tomorrow. So here is all I've done to it: - Removed energy weapon barrels from front of mech. + Added ballistic barrels to mech. + Added canopy to mech's cockpit + Added Unit Number Plate to top right missile pod. + Smoothed out armor on front right chassis. + Added Platoon Badge to front left chassis, (503rd Woe Bringers company shield) + Added house banner battle skirt. |

It's called a skirt... but I think of it as a kilt.

As of last night, the bases of all the models were finished except for static grass and edge paint, and all models received a base coat of 50% grey (citadel equivalent would be Fortress Grey.)
Tonight I'm going to paint fabric and other area's on my mech and tanks plum. Will be posting new pics soon!

Hey guys, due to the pending rule book, consider any fluff I posted as scrapped. I will also be posting pics of my infantry later this evening.

Like what you did with the purple and white striping, I look foreward to seeing pictures of the entire force together, keep up the good work.

They are looking really good. The Flag bearer is a great idea which I hadn't thought of doing myself, if you don't mind me borrowing the idea I think I'll do a Standard bearer myself when I get to my Control Battalion troops.

stroezie: Thank ya kindly, so am I  timvidlak: Go for it, I drilled a small hole in the base, filled it with super glue, then put a dot of glue on the mini's hand, and put a segment of paper clip in. I used Grey Stuff to support the flag after the glue dried to ensure it wouldn't move. The flag is Grey-stuff, but after my experiences, use Green stuff for the flag, it will be easier. Wait about 30 min for the GS to firm up to get the "flag wave". The banner topper is a spike bit from a Chaos vehicle sprue, that was pinned on and glued.

I might up his base, but I'm not sure yet. I kinda like it being the same size as the others, and it's easy enough to see who he is. He will also have a different color scheme than the rest of the army. Unless its a commander with some aides, or in large armor, my commanders will be the same size base as the Gruntz he's commanding. Very nice work btw. |

I went with the same size base. I thought it over for a long time and came to that same conclusion.

I'm holding it off so I can paint it better with one of the logos from 1.1. I want to read some of the fluff first before I dedicate my house to it.

 I have finally named my house. My army is hence know as "House Ravenmoor" The house heraldry is that of a Raven crowned by a black flame. The logo was done in Micron Marker (.05mm), sealed with PVA glue. Doing some mild mods to my commander. I'm giving him the Perk which gives him better equipment, so I'm adding a barrel drum to his rifle to make it look a little different. Also going to be adding static grass to the bases. |
