Bitterstone Mines Ready

Finally got the last terrain piece done for sundays game. It's the first "season end game" from Blood on the Badlands Campaign. And it's gonna be played with six armies, on three table. So, "The Siege of Mount Bloodhorn is gonna be bloody, and I will be posting pictures of the action... My Orcs will be defending the Gates of Ekrund, and I'm still working hard with my 2250pts armylist :)

Sorry about flashy pics...

Here's all that I made for Bitterstone Mines scenario...

And here's some older pieces added to the pile, that I'm gonna bring to the game...
I'll be back with some battle pics. Bye Now!

More Firepower for the Chapter

Hi! I made a great purchase... Some gamer wanted to get rid of this shooty Dread, and sold it for sixteen euros in internet. Now it has a good new home :), and its a valuable addition to my Chapter with he's twin-linked lascannon and missile launcher.

Here the new Dread is posing with Brother Ignis... Looking forward to paint it soon. Bye now!

More Bitterstone Mine Terrain Pieces

Hello! It's been awhile since my last posting... no time for hobby lately :( I have taken two rather large drawing projects, that takes all my time this month (and some of the next to come). But I'll try and post some little things if I take a break from drawing.

Anyways, here's some pics of the two new "Bitterstone Mines" pieces. We're gonna play the scenario next weeks sunday... so there's still little time to finish the rest of the scenery :)

These were fun and easy to sculpt... Since I have very little time for hobby right now, I try to keep things simple and pretty fast... even if the result is not as good as I'd liked to :)  As you can see, the Dwarf is one of the "Battle for Skull Pass" starter box minis. Finally got some use for Dwarfs :D. Everything else is sculpted from polyurethaine. There's a piece of thick plywood underneath the obelisk to give it some balance. (can be seen if you look closer :)

And here's aWIP of the other pair of columns. Still a lot to sculpt there, but I'm getting closer. Hope I get to the painting soon. That's no yellow Chaos Ooze, nor mustard, dripping under the pillars. It's Polyurethaine (PUR) Glue, that I like to use for attaching the sculpted pieces to plywood. It's really good stuff for that! You just spread the glue on plywood, spray some water on it. You can see the glue reacting on it pretty fast... then just press the urethaine piece on place, and let it dry for an hour or two. It makes a really strong bonding. Try it out!  Well... I'll be back soon, I hope. Bye now!

Bitterstone Mines, First Piece Done

Hi there! Here's few pics of the first scenery piece for the "Bitterstone Mines" scenario. We're gonna play the campaign game week from now... so I'm a bit in a hurry :) Other projects going on too... outside the hobby, so that doesn't make the schedule any easier. We'll see...

This piece was really nice to sculpt and paint. Painting stone is pretty easy and fast... but sculpting the details takes a lot of time. I hope I find enough time to make at least another one of these before the game, if not all three. This is the smallest one of them of course:)

Ta daa..! It's easy to turn it to a jungle terrain piece too :)

One more pic just for scale... "Group of Adventurers exploring ancient ruins". Bye now! 

One of the Emperors Children

Hi there! Here's few pics of the Emperors Children figure, that I painted for my friend, as a birthday present :). One more Marine to he's large and constantly growing collection of Chaos Forces...

Here's roughly what I did...

 I startedwith assembly (surprise)... Went through my bitz box and glued this together.

Then I painted the prime colors. Warlock Purple, Squid Pink (Vallejo), Leadbelcher for metal, and finally some Tau Light Ochre for golden parts...

I painted the gold parts with Burnished Gold, and washed with Agrax Earthshade. Rest of the figure got a wash of Leviathan Purple.

Then highlights were made with mix of 3:1 Warlock Purple-Squid Pink. Squid Pink parts were highlighted with the original color again... For more contrast I wanted to add another layer of higlights adding white to the mix... but I ran out of time :(

Well... I think it's a nice "tactical squad" standard figure anyways. More Emperors Children figures can be found under lable "Space Marine Project" in my older postings :) Bye now!
