I'll give this a try and vow two Vibrocannon/Shadow Weaver gun platforms with crew.

I have base coated the platforms.

Vows updated and locked. I changed my vows slightly. I'm hoping I can do it, but hesitant because most of the models are unprimed and I don't know if I'll get the chance due to the weather.

EDIT:Primed my scouts yesterday, got a nice spray of sunshine and moderate warmth.  Started on them today.  Just need to do the metals, and then a few touch ups here or there.  Otherwise done with the scouts.  Not fully happy with them.  I kind of speeded through them, but I want them done and decent looking.  I'm content but they could be better.  Again, I wanted them painted.

Basic colours are down on the Rhino except for all the little bits (hatches, stormbolter, forward visor, smoke launchers etc). Pics when there's something to look at...

well after not painting for almost a month, I woke up and just had a huge painting bug!

So i just spent the last 8 hours working on my Warhound.

Finished the legs and finished the torso/shoulders.

just have to finish the guns, head and all the little cables and nozels to attach yet.


I am still pondering doing some freehand on the armor plating on the legs though, but not sure what!

well with the weather I haven't been able to go out to spray on the basecoat, so I've instead decided to do it manualy.. only the biggest brush I've got is a size 1 *slams head against the wall*

On the plus side, after about 7 hours over the course of the past 3 days, I've only got about 1/8th left of the monolith to basecoat!

Well I spent a good 16 hours over my 2 days off and pretty much finished my Warhound Titan (I got a serious painting bug)

Really all that is left is to figure out a name for it for all the name plaques. And then to do a base for it!  I will post some pictures later tonight.


edit


here is my proof!



I created a thread on the painting forum with more pics.

Well its been a while since I posted an Update on my hellblades. I took a few weeks off from the project after finishing up the first so fast. Meanwhile I was able to scrap up some stands, and I finished the second one this weekend. With a few minor things left I should have this one DullMat this week and totally completed this week. I'll work on the bases maybe later on! Enjoy!

(old pics removed)

The top hatches are being painted separately. I'm putting a closed crew hatch on the left slot and a stormbolter on the right one. Hoping to finish it tomorrow if I get the chance.

Edit - Finished!  ;D  \o/

Finished up a bunch of skinks. I'm pretty sick of skinks about now.

Comand squad is finished and stormtroopers will be finished by deadline, but I probably won't get them based :/
