Stu's *other* painting projects.

For members to post long running threads about projects they are working on

Stu's *other* painting projects.

Postby _stu_ » Wed May 19, 2010 6:13 pm

As I've hinted elsewhere, I've got quite a few what I would class as *minor* projects on the go. Some of these have been on the go for years (frog's blood bowl teams being the oldest), whilst others are pretty newish (my blood bowl team wanting repainted). Rather than create a hundred and one threads, I'll try and keep them updated here (and hopefully spend a chunk of time on them while _lis_ is out at her hen party at the weekend - while the missus is away and all that ;) ).

Completed
Frog's Human Bloodbowl Team (just need based)
Frog's Orc Bloodbowl Team (just need based)
Lugft Huron for Lis' Marines

In Progress
Commisar Gaunt
2* Immolator for Lis' SoB
High Elf Bloodbowl Team + Moranion (repaint)
Egrimm van Horstmann (rebuild and repair - I originally painted this about 12yrs ago for Lis's mum)

To Start
Human Blood Bowl Team
Orc Blood Bowl Team
Top Secret Character Model

Will post up pics as and when I make progress ;)

We have joint project logs for everyone (one for 2010 as a whole and one for each quarter) if you fancy giving yourself targets and posting in those too :D

It'll be good to see some bloodbowl teams. I haven't played the game in years. Looking forward to seeing yours.

Cheers Matt. Will start in there in the next quarter ;)

In the meantime' FINALLY got froggys human + orc teams finished and ready to base. I think I'll let him base them as Im not sure what style he wants ;) Trying to find a good pic to use as a backdrop when I take the piccies tomorrow.....

Human Team is a standard Out-Of-The-Box

Orc Team is Out-Of-The-Box + Ripper Bolgrot, Varag Ghoul Chewer and Scrappa Sorehead (pogo stick dude?)

Taking a bit of a break from the Thunderhawk at the mo, so looking at assembling + spraying my Red Scorpions and maybe starting the High Elves next.

Gaunt is tempting me though!

Right - Finally had an hour to take some pics of where these things are at...

First up are Frogs Blood Bowl teams. They still need based, but we've decided that he is going to do that (and we need to decide a class color scheme for the edges of the bases - will make it easy to play "count's as" games if we want to experiment with other teams)..

Orc Team

Star Players

Backs

Human Team

And following on from that, the first of my repainted High Elf Team

And that brings this pretty much up to date for the mo. Next up are the rest of the Elf Team, along with Prince Moranion. I've stripped the dragon back and need to clean it prior to re-building / repainting, but that one's further down the line..

The armour on the orcs looks really good.

Cheers Matt

It was a basecoat of chainmail with a couple of fairly heavy badab black washes, followed by a bit of stippled / pooled devlan mud. After that i picked out some very fine highlights with chainmail again to add a bit of contrast.......

Devlan mud works a treat on metal like this.

definately - I've heard it described as "the chuck norris of paints" and I'd be inclined to agree.
