Warmachine – Captain Allister Caine Progress!

/ Deathwatch Studios / Leave a comment

This is by far one of my favorite models ever and has been so much fun to paint, so much so that I’ve already zipped through painting him to the point where hes nearly done 🙂

I’m really pleased with the Jacket, particularly the yellowy/gold trim on the back. The colours came out looking great and the it gives him enough to tie him in with the Jacks I’m painting.

All I need to do now is a few touches to his hair, the cloth round the neck, the “magic bullets” and the base 😀

Dreadball – Silver Centurion Reinforcements

After finishing off the Gamma Slammers I’ve moved onto adding the finishing touches to the Centurions and here’s how they’re looking so far:

Still a fair bit of work to be done on them until theyre finished though. Whilst painting them I have noticed a wee bit of a scaling issue, especially with the Jack. He seems to be taller even than an Orc guard, which seems a little odd. Don’t know if anyone else has noticed this? Not that it matters, he can just be given the cliched nickname of ‘Tiny’ 😀

Dreadball – More Z’zor!

Heres another wee update on the Z’zor and the extra details I’ve added. Got the eyes and the reds done and dusted, but only just got the Turqouise bits started:

After I’ve finished off the Turquoise all thats really needing done is the numbers on their backs some final touch ups, and the clear hexes. I had an idea of what I wanted to do for the hexes, which was a thin strip of green with red at the centre. This ones a little wonky, and needs a little clean up, but you should get the idea 🙂

Dreadball – Z’zor update!

Back to the painting :D. I’m back to the hobby after a couple of weeks of extra normal work, and getting stuck into the third of my Dreadball teams, the Z’zor, and here’s how they’re looking:

I’m very pleased with how they’re coming along, with the main addition above and beyond the tester being the red in the joins. I think this helps tie the whole lot together quite nicely :). Still have a fair amount of work to put into these guys, and will be looking to get the turquoise armour sections, the reds and the eyes finished off for tomorrow…

Warhammer 40k – White Scars Jetbike Progress!

/ Deathwatch Studios / 1 Comment

Today I have been working on the sword, cloak, animal skin and face on the White Scars jetbike. I managed to finish all of them off other than the face and some final touches to the animal skin and here are the results:

I’m particularly pleased with how the sword has turned out and chose the colours in order to match the Kor’sarro Khan I did earlier in the year for the same client. This was done by blening from blackto naggaroth purple, then to genestealer purple to white. In regards to the animal skin, I decided to do this in a semi leopard pattern, as I think this suits the White Scars more than a standard grey or brown affair you’d find on say a Space Wolf. I still think this needs a little work just to pull the colour out a little bit more. Next up is soem more work on the face. hair and beard as so far I have only laid down the base colours for these.

In other news I received a couple of MVPs as part payment for the Dreadball robots commission, so I’ll be painting these up alongside the Enforcer once the jetbike is done 😀

I’m happy to report that painting has begun on the White Scars jetbike, and this is what I have so far:

I’ve decided to leave the white until last, as it’s too easy to mess it up if done before many of the other details. Especially with a colour like red being involved.  So next up will be getting that aforementioned red looking a bit nicer than it is, and getting on with all the details 😀

 

Dreadball – Silver Centurions Almost Done!

/ Deathwatch Studios / Leave a comment

With the final few details added today it’s just the bases and the threat markings on the clear hex(not sure what I’m doing with that yet) on the Centurions to do. Here’s how they are looking without that:

As you may have noticed I decided to add some Dreadball gloves to the Strikers and the Jacks, this was done with some plastic pipettes I had laying about with some careful cutting , and a wee touch of paint.

Next up, as I’ve said is the bases. These are gonna be a rough metal to match the pitch design I threw together this afternoon. This is the as-yet unnamed(may have to be the Colosseum?) home of the Silver Centurions:
