GW: GW Manchester is great and I bought stuff!!!!!! I am also looking for tutorials on Greenstuff.

Hey, today I went to Manchester and we (ME+FAMILY) went into the GW there, I had an awsome game with my warriors at 1500 points against Ogres and he beat me but it was relatively close, I mean he had 3 bulls, a tyrant, 2 butchers and about 6 ironguts by the end of the game and I had a sorc, but it could have worked out in my favour, anyway he was a vet and this was like my first FULL Fantasy game because I have played some games in the past but like that was an intro game and a game against my mate that we wern't shure of some 0f the rules in.

Anyway onto the buying, I ordered the Tzeench lord on disk and I will be using him as either a sorcerer or a lord depending on my army list, I also bought: 12 more warriors, Nurgle sorcs (not converting these, I'll just say it was an experiment but the gods to make two simaller forms and se what happens), but wait for it, ok I am just going to miss a few lines to add tension:


STILL WAITING!








I BOUGHT GREEMSTUFF AND A SCULPTING TOOL! Because of this if anybody knows of any basic sculpting tips/tutorials then I would be very grateful. ME OUT!

Conversions for dummies: A new series about converting.

Ok, so I am going to do a new series about doing simple conversions, this will be done step-by-step and hopefully will help people.

A couple of days ago, I was thinking about converting. I know I am not the best converter but not everybody is and it is hard to learn some of the basic skills when you join theis obby, so I will be converting on some of the following races:

Space marines.
Orks.
Dark eldar warriors.
Tyranids
Maybe some other I am not sure.

So, tell me what you think and say if your interested.

Painting: Pic marathon.

Hi guys, I finally have a camera now so I have been on a pic marathon. Here we go:

Remember that post a while a go about random stuff, well here it is, Legolas Merry and a warboss (AoBR but the back of his claw is missing). Just a bit of fun painting.

Now for the real work, this is my WIP Slaaneshi squad.
The command

A close up on the banner.

And a random dude.

Nurgle time.This is a squad from a while back, I am pretty pleased with them but I forgot to take pics of their capes which are some of the best bits.

Now this guy is a 'Chaosling' They are men borne to close to chaos and never grew very tall as the raw essence of chaos flows through them, they are generally magicians and nomatter what god they worship, a tripe wants them. This one is a conversion and is devoted to tzeench. I mad up the stuff about chaoslings. The thing be his side is a count as fammiliar.

Another pic.

And another.

A cappy that still needs some work but is getting there

Taccy squad!

WIP maurauders!, flail heaven. The silver members are the young members of the trip that are not as devoted as the others so don't show as much heritige as the others.

And so ladies and gentalmen, that is all for today, more pics to come and my tutorial on mud basing will have pics too.

P.S. Since now I have based my army with my mud tecnique.

Painting: LoTR and orks.

Ok, I don't have pics yet but I do have some news.

Orks: I have started painting my warboss, I don't know what to call him yet though. The whole ork clan will either be called the Blood ----- (-= insert name) or the skull smashers, any ideas?

LoTR: Right, so me and my mate will eventually get into LoTR (after I have done marines, got a decent amount od Orks and Warriors of chaos (my fantasy army)) I have already painted Legolas and Merry which I got free from a mate and I may slowly build my collection.

Fantasy: Like above I have decided to get some Warriors of Chaos.

40k: Marines are proceding, I need to finish a tac squad then prime and paint 2 rhinos, 2 speeders, 5 assault marines and 5 scouts then Marines are finsihed and I can move onto orks and WoC.

Converting: Scouts and updates.

Hi guys, this is a propper update:

These guys are the AoBR termies and they are being painted like silver skulls to go with my crusade theme, my land raider will be adjusted to be silver skulls aswell.

Now for some WIP assault marines, I didn't give them running legs as I can find better uses for those.

Now for the scouts, this is just a straight out of the box dude.



Sorry about the blur but this is the side shot of a sergeant, the squad comp is a bit weird as I have 1 bolter scout, 1 shotgun scout, two bolt pistol and chainsword scouts and a heavy bolter scout already so this squad has 1 BP and CS, 2 bolters, 1 BP and PwrW, 1 combi plasma and PP guy.






And another shot where you can see the bolter bit of the built in shoulder mounted combi-plasma.

The other sergeant with a power weapon.

Next guy:

This chap has a shoulder mounted bolter (tutorial at a later date) a big ammo box with a tractor beam grapple and a tractor beamer, he also has a bolt pistol.

Now for the next guy. He has a shoulder mount a pistol and a little mechanicle loader (bit of a bolter).




And now for my dread which I have finally finished.

Thanks for reading this far and comments and critisms are wealcom, hope you like the models.

Salamanders: Long awaited update.

Hi, sorry for not posting for a while, I have a propper update now

This dread is nearly done the arms just need finishing.

I gave the metal a green wash so it looked old and over used.

Now for the cappy, he still needs some work.

One side of the power weapon, it is supposed to look like it is hot at the tip as it was forged through lava, I could get into that but I'll just say it's like lord of the rings when they make the ring only with more fire.

Now for the marines, this first one is the missile launcher dude, most of them don't have weapons or back packs.

This guy you have seen before.

Now for the sergeant. His face wash highlighted brown then washed black.

Sorry for the slight blur in this one.

All the shadows in these pics were natural, I hope you enjoy them.
