Khador: No Arc Nodes No Light Jacks All Axe to Face
Finished up pEiryss, and she's looking good! Got the Stalker onto its base, and even though it looks a bit lopsided, I can always say it's in the middle of stepping forward, right? Right? Hoping to get some primer on the main body tonight so I can start in on the painting!
"Is that gasoline I smell, Mr. Gideon?"
Still working on the damnable Extreme Juggernaut. Today saw me glue axe and fingers to hand, and shoulder and upper arm to body. Next is trying to decide where lower arm will be glued and hand will be glued to lower arm. Plan is for super-cool-awesome pose, reality is more to be awkward-what-the-hell-is-he-doing-exactly pose.
In other news, A Dance with Dragons!!!!![]()

Taking a little time to work out my colour scheme for my Kayazy Assassins.
Finished all the important parts of my Legionnaires. Now their armor, cloaks and feathered crests are all done and sealed. Since I'm not in a super-painting mood I gave up trying to paint the leader's eyes and gouged them out, painting streaks of blood down her cheeks instead. She got jealous of the eyeless beasts, I guess. Everyone but the last two are now gloss-coated, waiting 'til tomorrow for the dull coat.
The last two I messed up on and applied wood finish directly to Rustoleum silver spray paint. The solution the finish floats in stripped the spray paint and the resulting compound prevents most of the wood finish from drying. I've got them scrubbed and removed from the bases, but I'm trying to think if Simple Green will strip Rustoleum/Minwax. Once all the models are to the same place I'll take care of what basing I can (those Legionnaires take up a lot of base space) and paint front arcs. This will be my second fully painted full unit, at least until Farilor and Standard release. I'm so stoked!
Funnily enough, the Legionnaires look very bland from the front, since the red feathers and maroon cloth are in the back and the only thing on the front is patina'd plate armor. My sister calls them my "Mullet Brigade" since they're business in the front and party in the back.
All hail the Ubernaught. All hail the CAKEFATHER.
Finished Harkevich in a new paint scheme I think I'll be converting the rest of my Khador to. Will be posting pictures later today when I get home from work.
Destor jetbike squad is coming along well!

I just finished priming: The everblight battlebox, Goreshade and deathwalker, and the cryx scavenger. I also finished painting (non epic)Denny.
assembly of demo corps has stalled as i wait for replacement parts. used the new replacement parts portal, looking forward to seeing how it goes.
Finally finished building the Extreme Juggernaut. He's getting primered now, but probably won't see paint for a bit, yet. Just over a third of the way through A Dance with Dragons right now.
EDIT: Looks like I lied. I managed to get two colors and a wash done on the XJuggy. Probably more painting tomorrow sometime.

After 3 months, my Reckoner is finally "finished." Why "finished"? Well, the weather hasn't given me a chance to prime its base, and on Saturday I'll be going to a Q&A with PPS_Meg! I'll see if she has any pointers for me.![]()
Converted a classic Destroyer to Black Ivan and painted him:

I assembled 8 of 10 Boomhowlers last night... then I ran out of super glue.
I mostly assembled Gallant... just need to glue his arms to the body and then get it on the base.
Plinking away at my converted Carnivean, 30 min. to an hour a day. This time I finished his face-carapace and chest plates, and I started blocking out his pointy, pointy shoulders. At this rate he should be done...
in 2015.

got my iron fang pikemen [unit of 2] assembled today! now they're in my army![]()
Wound up getting my magnet from K&J the other day, and finished installing them in my plastic Helljack! Now I can happily run either Malice or the 3 that it came with! Hooray!
And Sauklaue, that Black Ivan is incredible. Fantastic job!

Cryx : 50pts
That's pretty sweet! Where did the gun barrel come from?
Have about 40min done of the 2 hours I've allotted to my Koldun Lord. About 20% more to go on the basecoating and then detailing. Trying to work on painting stuff faster and this is the first test case on several items.
Painted: Mercs: 194pts, 5 casters | Cygnar: 102pts, 5 casters | Minions: 52pts, 2 casters | Trolls: 25pts, 1 caster | Circle: 30pts, 1 caster - Latest: Sentry Stone, 6 Stormguard

Did a little more work on my X-Juggy today, and now just over 200 pages left of A Dance with Dragons. Off for two days, then training for three, so little and less time to paint until Thursday.

I finally finished my Nihilators (after 3 weeks work) and got base colors blocked in on my second Extoller, BRMT, and Drake.
The above is my personal opinion, and in no way should be taken as representative of the overall Skorne community. Even when I claim otherwise.
Skorne on date ... when did Primal Mk I hit again?
started putty work on my demo corp. hoping my replacements parts arrive soon. they've already shipped according to the new service portal.
At the moment I am testing paint schemes on some legion shredders. I Think I may be going for a black and silver look. However I have a feeling that my girlfriend my end up wanting them to go along the lines of pink and black.
Painted this yesterday but what the hell:
Really think its a great sculpt.
Finished my Reckoner. At PPS_Meg's suggestion, pushed the shading and highlighting out of the comfort zone I was in. Not completely happy with it, but I'll never learn if I don't push it. Pics when I'm not dead tired!
been on a bit of painting frenzy since i finally got round to using my airbrush. fully painted abby, scythean and raek yesterday. half finished an angelius and base coated and washed 2 shredders, 2 stingers, typhon, carni, 2 forsaken and 2 shepherds. not bad for a days work.
Did a bit of touch-up, finishing-up and evening-out on the Extreme Juggy, all that's left now is painting the Cygnar Heavy Warjack wreck marker I used for the base. Hope to have it all finished for a Warmachine game on Monday!
Also, just over 150 pages left in A Dance with Dragons! And I joined a Song of Ice and Fire roleplaying game on rpol.net!

Last night at work I finished a demo color on a shredder and base coated a carnivean. I decided on a pale teal for the skin, a red for the gum line and an off white for the armor platelets. I'll post a picture after I wake up later.
runebearer and 5 whelps are assembled, based, and ready for primer.
Finished up my Extreme Juggy today!
-Ken
Halfway though painting my Defender and Reinholdt (coming out nicely). Made a start on my Squire, and assembled Siege.
Got washes done on the body and legs of the Stalker bonejack and did some base coating on the arms and claws as well--looking good so far! Now for highlighting and additional washes before I address the arms/claws and attaching them at last...
"Is that gasoline I smell, Mr. Gideon?"
Finally finished the Menoth Battlebox- my first warmachine minis EVER. "Sigh" I hate being a perfectionist.... I must be the slowest painter in the history of the world!
blitzer is primed.
