Grotz

Here are two Grotz.

They are based and I have used Green Stuff (some that is rather old) to fill in the gaps.

Deth Kopta, nearly finished to gaming standard…

This is quite a simple model to paint.

Starts off with a black undercoat, drybrush of Tin Bitz and then a lighter drybrush of Boltgun Metal.

The rotor blades are painted with Bleached Bone and will be getting a highlight of Skull White.

At this point I am happy for it to be used in a game.

Final details will be adding some copper and bronze to various components, painting the dials and seat, as well as giving the machine some glyphs and details on the tail.

I really like this model, I now have a squadron of three and may get some more in the future, maybe to convert into a heavy version.

Orks with Twin Big Shootas

Orks with Twin Big Shootas Forgeworld weapon systems… Undercoated in black.

Since this picture was taken I have painted the skin tones and the main weapon.

Deth Kopta Pilots

Here are two Deth Kopta pilots in the process of being painted.

They utilise parts from the original pilot and the plastic Ork Boyz sprue.

One difference with these then when I made the original model was that I stuck the flying handle to the model rather than try and assemble the whole thing when everything is painted.

More pictures of the fantastic Imperial Guard Dropship from the UK GamesDay 2004… Following on from the EDT rumours which broke my website (bandwidth issues) there was a lot of interest in the large Imperial Guard (or Inquisition) Dropship which was used in one of the display games.

As you can see it is huge.

It was made from lots of Forgeworld models and other bits.

As you can see a lot of attention was given to detail.

Excellent effort.

Ork Shoota Boyz

This shot shows a work in progress of one of my Ork Boyz.

They are painted quite quickly in one respect, but I am still trying to get a good paint job on them.

I start off with a black undercoat and then do all the metallic bitz with a drybrush of tin bitz and chainmail.

I then do all the Ork skin with a dark green, highlight with Goblin Green before doing final highlights with a mixture of Goblin Green and Bleached Bone.

The orks’ teeth are first done in Bleached Bone before final highlights of Skull White.

Uniforms (and I say that in the broadest possible sense with orks) are usually Codex Grey with highlights in a lighter grey.

Bases to fit in with the snow based theme and Cityfight games are done in Codex Grey before drybrushing with Skull White.

Here is a shot of some finished Boyz.
