Arctica

I managed to paint quite a bit this weekend, im happy with this so far, meathook is the crew mekanik, i will probably end up rusting alot of his armour and bits & parts to give a bit more colour variation and make the model a tad more interesting, but so far im really enjoying this one aswell.

Tada another one done !, Herman Toothrot a heavy for the pirate crew Im happy with how he turned out i think he has alot of character and i have to admit the plastics are alot easier to paint for me than metal models. Anywho, think i will do meathook next, i've already actually started the base as you can see from the group shot, updates this weekend.



4 down 6 to go.

Not too much progress last night, so only a short update on this little tale.
The pistol is pretty much done, only tiny amounts to do on the bigger weapon, then i think i might do his other arm or possibly his back banner. Will probably apply some base coats for the hat tonight too.

This guy is going to be called Herman Toothrot i need to dirty up his teeth a bit but it's only a wip atm. Plastics are much nicer to paint these days, the details are very crisp.
All the other orks so far have been gangers, but this guy will be a heavy with his stubber on his back.

Well it's that time of the week again folks and et voila ! another shot of Dok Grog and one of the progress so far.



Yarr landlubbers, more progress soon for all those army painters out there, having a fun project like this to break up the monotony of army painting helps a billion times over. Rather than losing any concentration i just want to keep on painting.

Quickie update, progress on the painting front is good, i managed to do more of the torso and clean up (sort of) the tools and do the skin on this model.


I am finding some of the features on this one a little rough around some of the edges, which i should have cleaned up earlier. But it's not massively noticeable, actually i did find some of the details a bit confusing as to what was what and where went where on this guy. Maybe i was just tired, still i think i have most ...

Well i managed to finish Ahab, im pretty happy with him. The little squig is so cute




And now for the group shot again for progress:


2 down 8 to go.

Started working on Doktor Grog this morning. A really nice model and he has a pegleg so works well with my crew. will post more pics when i make a bit more significant progress.

Yarrr, all ye landlubbers ! i managed to get a bit more done, so a quick update for Ahab, he's looking much meaner now that im working on his hand weapon. The ork nobz boxed set has some really good pieces which are well defined and so easy to paint.

Didn't get alot done last night, managed to do most of the harpoon arm (except the harpoon) and his shoulder pads so now his body is finished. Might work on the axe and the hat tonight after finishing the harpoon. Im happy how he is progressing along, these are really nice models to paint.

Well i managed to finish his main torso and belt etc, then i started work on his arm. Im not 100% happy with the gold nmm on the arm but im still working on it to clean it up and it to how i want it to look. I think i have a bit too much midtone and highlights on it, i need to bring the colour back down with a few dark glazes. Still it's getting there.
