Progress on the next pack mate.

Base colors and the wash.  I found an old pot of deneb stone and used it for his hair. Feels like a good fit.

Wash is still wet (I was excited).  :)

Second claw complete.

Grey knights in the pic will take 'em all out anyway.

Oh well.

;)

Welcome to the grim-dark!

Having lurked in universe since rouge trader I agree with the above statements that 8th is both streamlined and fun, you're gonna have a good time if you find some opponents who share your gaming values.

Almost all of our games have been close, and for the first time since 3rd we've had a game come down to the final dice rolled :)

Good stuff :)

Have fun with da waaaaagh!

Finished up the assault cannon.  You'll note the 'tat' SD :)

Progress on the claw.

Hope everybody has a good week.

It's ok.

I guess.

;)

Its one of my favorite words...

Amazeballs.

Currently reading this one.  

It sheds a little light onto their combat experience.

Its set right as the poop hits the fan at the start of 8th ed.  Pretty enjoyable so far.

Nice and subtle.  I like the metallic blue.

Looks great!  It's awesome how well the AoS dudes convert over.

Looking forward to more pics.

Base colors and a wash on the big dakka.

And the start of number 3.  

I'm looking forward to using these guys as pack leaders until their numbers are sufficient for a Logan wing style list.

One of his brothers.

Just a little progress on the base colors.

Completed.

These guys should look good in big packs.  For now though he'll have to lone wolf it for a bit.

Happy Friday!

I'd also bring the edges of the Wolf Claw blades back up a bit. Doesn't have to be much, but a little bit of a highlight there can really help to sell the "Power Weapon" concept.

Yarp :)

He'll get similar treatment as the rest of his brothers. 

The claws will end up with a 3 step gradient and a white highlight.

Similar to the sword effect, but with finer steps to the blues.

Post wash

I'll probably add some face tattoos at some point, just to scruff him up.

Thanks V.  :)

I had a few minutes to work on some hobby'ing and decided to put some paint to plastic.

Heres some pre wash of the first TDA.

More to come.

Finished I Am Slaughter by Dan Abnett.

For the longest time I stayed away from this one because of the cover art, silly me.

Its the first in a twelve part series by black library.  It is interesting in that it is set in m31-32, post heresy, but just barely.

It deals with both the imperial fists, and the upper command structure of the young imperium, for a little intrigue mixed in with the hail of bolter fire.

A typically well written Abnett novel.

Yeah, GW advanced my painting abilities considerably when they released the washs.

I'm addicted to nuln oil :)

Complete.

Im happy with the subtle energy at the ends of the staff, but would love to get a hold of a good air brush and do a 'glow'.

Its about to get stormy on the tables :)

Post wash.

Progress on one of the priests.  

Got all the base color down pre wash.

Gonna try a radiating energy effect on the staff right below the eagle and toward the bottom.

Finished  The Warmaster by Dan Abnett.

Its always nice to return to the ghosts as they are a group I can invest in since they've been around for so long.

Gritty IG combat were you can feel the las rounds going through people, with good dark drama in the background.

Leaves you wanting more at the end, and feels like a stepping stone for the next book/s.  Makes me want to re-read from the start and work on my IG/AM.
