Grey Knights - Dreadknight

Hello all,

This is one of my favorite figure, and I had some conversion ideas about this, however the reality is more different :) One day I will buy another one, and will do that conversion. Whatever; I spent almost 40 hours for all modeling, basing, and painting. The main reason I tried some techniques on another piece instead of applying to model. My saver was again GW's wash paints. They are really amazing. Well, let me show you what I did...

Grey Knights - From Reserves

Hey all,

After traveled UK for Gamesday 2011, amount of my figures are a bit increased :) I could get a chance to get some new models for my GK army, and I wanted to finish their painting. As you can see I painted a dreadnought, a librarian and a techmarine (actually techpriest engineer model I used)

I spend almost 25-30 hours for paintin, and basing. I tried some techniques but I wont talk about them, because I couldnt apply them as good as I assume. Anyway, here the photos...

Grey Knights

I started Warhammer hobby with 40K, however i couldnt show enough importance to 40K armies. When Grey Knight army renewed, I decided to collect miniatures. And after a while (I accept I am a lazy person) I started to modelling and painting GK army.

My favorite model type at 40K is terminator armor ones. So I bought terminators for GK army. During modelling phase one of my friend (thanks to Murat Takavci) help for posing GK terminators, so I cant say how many I spent for modelling but i know i spent average 15-20 min for basing. (I used some parts of old cellular phone and cork pieces)

Overall painting time was approximately 50-60 hours (except Land Raider, which was painted by Murat Takavci also). Here some pictures of my GK Army.

WIP - Plague Catapult (conversion)

During 7th edition of Warhammer Fantasy, Skaven army book renewed, and it include new units like Plageu Catapult, however there wasnt any catapult model for that unit (nowadays you can find at GW as lightning cannon or plague catapult) I decided to create one.

During process i used Trebuchet from Bretonian army, and rat ogre which was from
new Screaming Bell/Plague Furnance model (i did PF where you can find that model at previous posts) and pulling bell. I added some small rats over trebuchet also for look like more skavenish.
For strenghting the positioning of rat ogre i used natural stone pieces.

I painted stone pieces, instead of keeping them with original colors, I will continue with more painting and basing. In overall, i used basing more longer than the actual one, but i had to used lie this for positioning. Anyway, still need more working, i will share when it is done.

WIP - Queek Headtaker

As you remember, i mentioned about Queek. I want to share the process of painting with you, at this moment, i applied base colors, and washing.

In the following days I will continue with highlighting and drybrushing, and i will share final step.

Riders on the storm...

Hello again,

Finally I completed my converted Hell Pit Abomination. When Skaven army book released, some units didnt have any model which provide by Games Workshop. So i started to alternative models, and found Forge World Khorne Blood Slaughter (btw i have another conversion for Plague Catapult, you can see that work soon too.). The reason why i choose this model is, i really like Skyre clan at Skavens which are the tech users, and inventors, prbably they are the most brilliant ones in warhammer fantasy worlds, so i decided to create my own abomination from Skyre clan instead of Maulders.

I will continue to work on this model, i want to add some sprues and basing. When finished, I will sahre the latest form. during the process, i realised that i need more patiance and more experience on modelling, i still did some noobish mistakes, luckly it isnt understandable if you didnt see the progress. This model had take my 22-24 hours work, it could be faster, but i changed color scheme for 2 times and cost me 6-8 hours more. Well, lets see some more pictures...

Once upon a time...

I know it has been long time since last post, but new works will be here soon.
The reason for not posting *caugh slacking caugh* i sold my old Skaven army, and bought new models, and couldnt motivated myself.

Anyway, following work will be my alternative Hellpit Abomination model. (will be presented in following days... realy)
