Ok here goes I'm not sure what I'll get done as funds are tight right now...

Here are my rough sketches working towards my final image

This is my final overview I've kept the details to a minimum but it's also drawn out to a scale that I can work with for the final layout. I've got lots of ideas for detail but nothing is finalized yet.

Deathwatch game Genestealer cult. no promises I'll get it all done as I'm enjoying playing rather than painting at the moment. If I get all this done quickly, I might add my rogue trader genestealer cult stuff.

Accepted


With this being a two month contest, if you finish your first entry before the entry deadline (August 15th) you can enter additional pieces!

They will be counted as seperate entries, so no need to mash everything together on a single picture, you'll get one gallery submission for each entry!

So if you dont win with one entry, you might win with another!


Just to keep things interesting :P

Well, since I posted that entry, I've built all the models! I'll hopefully have them undercoated by this evening.

I must find motivation to actually paint some of the cult. its built and undercoated, but I've just been so busy, and when I've had time, I haven't had the interest in the models to do it. I might end up with just the patriarch and the stealers done at this rate.

once the primers set, i'll have pictures up

only primed them before entering them because after years of sitting on a shelf waiting to be done, they're both in quite a state

one can still be done as i'd planned originally, but the other will need a rethink, im thinking battle damage! or rather, battle scars since my hands arent up to mass GS work :/
