Not much of an update, I have done a little more on the DC, started the bases and done the first 2 stages on the parchments. Pics will come at the weekend, but now I have my new cam in my possession took another quick go on Lemmy with and without flash... Must say I'm extremely happy with him thus far! I'll get some better pics eventually when daylight permits or I start making a light box.

Been working on the 'Elite Death Company' squad that will escort Lemmy. I've been basing areas such as the golds, reds the bases etc. Taken pics just 10 mins ago so it's dark and took a pic with and without flash:

Convert the Stormraven, they deserve better than a flying brick! :D

I am doing some minor conversions to it but I am not confident enough to do anything too elaborate to the hull other than swap the turret for the Razorback turret. It does look much better, slightly less front heavy and since it sits below the air intake it's a bit more streamlined. Not much but that bit makes all the difference. I am going to try and magnetise the Dread to the magna grapple piece on the Raven. That will be about the limit of my converting skills haha

Looks very dc, Lots to do still im guessing.

Oh yeah lots and lots to do yet. This is still pretty much just base coat stages. I am still yet to do the red weapon cases and the purity seals and a few of the ropes before I start getting into the highlighting and details.

OK folks. Long time no update. I have had a bit on my plate from November and haven't really done much. But today I decided I would get a little further along after getting stuck into Deliverance Lost.

So, I have been working on the Jump Packs for my 'Elite DC'. Working on the same plasma glow effect I used on Lemmy. So here is where I am up to:

I'm surprised that you have gotten this far painting (nice job btw) and haven't repaired the haft on the thunderhammer.

The thunder hammer will be all peachy when I actually stick them together. None of the arms are actually stuck to the models yet, just held with putty so fear not. The haft will be whole before the squad is completed.

Howdy all... Time here as of late has been extremely fleeting for I have been very busy... New Job, new house, new band, all kinds of other stuff going on so I have really not had as much time to paint as I would like.

BUT! I have done a bit more on my Death Company. All basecoating for the black armour is now done, and have been working up highlights on some of the details like laurels and purity seals & parchments. Any C&C welcome. Enjoy!

I have done yet more of the little details including the green laurels and grenades, leather pouches, 1st highlight on all the bone areas and also layered up all the red 'X' marks. Oh and highlighted all purity seals and all the areas that will end up being white... Phew... I REALLY need to start using my airbrush for base layers to speed things up! Pics ahoy!

Howdy Y'all! More done on these guys. Just highlights continuing to build. Not done anything specific bar the power sword and work on the Thunder Hammer. NEVER had a thunder hammer to paint really, so thought I would have a play with it, see what would happen.













And the Thunder Hammer... Tried an OSL on the handle, and a power effect on the head, like all power is converging for the strike

HI All! Been another busy few weeks so squeezing in painting when I can between gigs and visiting my girlfriend in Spain and work. I have highlighted all the black areas on the DC grunts (except for the jump packs anyway) now up to the point where only the extreme highlight remains. C&C welcome!

Those are looking really good, but it is a little difficult to tell in most of the pictures as the models are very dark compared to the background and they are getting overpowered. The latest shot is a little better; any chance of a fill light or some such to show them off a little better?
