I used some Green Stuff to fill the gaps in my Repressor’s ill fitting top.
Need to tidy up the filling a little bit.

I have been painting the purity seals on my Grey Knights.
I used a light brown foundation paint for the paper of the seals and the red for the wax and then highlighted with normal Citadel colour.
I also took the opportunity to add some “burn” weathering to the flamer.
I have also been tidying up the armour connectors and painting them in Chaos Black over the drybrushed Boltgun Metal in order to make the armour look a little smarter and neater.
It’s getting there, but I better get the crew done soon.
I am making some progress on my Grey Knights Landspeeder. Having done the purity seals I painted the skulls with a light brown foundation paint, I will be highlighting these with bleached bones.
Another view.

Having finished off the red wax on my Grey Knights Landspeeder I set about adding writing to the paper parts of the purity seals.
I used a watered down Chaos Black for the writing.
I am okay with the end result, but would have liked to have done some finer writing, so I may try again.
I also took the opportunity to paint the Inquisitorial book on the front with a red foundation paint.
This needs some tidying up as well.
My Daemonhunters Inquisitor is going to have an entourage, one of whom will be an Inquisitor Acolyte. I started this model sometime ago, but have (as with all my Daemonhunters models) been revisting them in mind to get them finished.
At this stage I had done some work.
I painted the parchment and books with Bleached Bone and highlighted with Skull White.
This is the rear view.
I did start to highlight the cloak, but this didn’t work out too well so the paint was quickly removed, it looked too pink!
Having painted the paper parts of the purity seals on my Grey Knights Landspeeder I highlighted the seals with Bleached Bone and Skull White.
I then painted the wax seals. I used the red foundation paint for this (as I had used a black undercoat). I then highlighted the seals with normal Citadel Colour, Blood Red.
I will need to do the writing next.
I purchased my Ork Bommer way back in 2003 at GamesDay and I am still working on it nearly four years later, though it did spend some time as an Epic Transport plane for a while…
It has taken a while but I have now finished the base coat…
You can see how (poorly) I filled the gaps in the model, however this is an Orky plane and I wouldn’t expect it to be perfect!
The next stage will be to give the whole thing a ink and paint wash.
I must get the Traktor painted as well for it.
Having finished most of the metal bodywork on my Grey Knights Landspeeder I went and painted the purity seals using a Foundation Paint.
It covered the black undercoat really well compared to normal Citadel colour. There are quite a few on the model, I used the resin purity seals available from Forgeworld rather than make my own. You can make your own using paper and green stuff for the seals, but the Forgeworld ones are much easier to use and I think much better than I could do.
When I was editing the photographs for this blog entry I was quite pleased with the way the metal finish appeared (in close-up) on the Landspeeder body.
This was done with Boltgun Metal. I still need to add some highlights.
