First Angels Sanguine painted with the new Colour range

The first Squad painted with the new Colours from Citadel is nearly finished!!!




Painting a smooth and bright Red was never so easy to handle! I purchased a bunch of red tones as recommended on GW´s Website and started to paint..... 


The Red turned out very very well and so i will have to rework all my Angels Sanguine painted so far with the old Range of colours... But next in Row will be attaching the Decals (from Bolterandchainsaw.com) and of course the finishing touches on my Sanguine Priest Conversion made out of Gabriel Seth...





Winterdressed Marder II

Hello Folks and Followers...

Today i want to share with you some Pictures of my first Marder II in "Winterdress".


This is one of the excellent Kits from MK72, a real pleasure to build! Very accurate and very detailled. In my oppinion, this is the best Marder II Model availiable. 


To let this little beauty fit to my winterdressed Forces i applied a faded and used white coat. I just drybrushed the Parts of the Model with an Medium and small sized Brusch up and down. First with Vallejo "Offwhite" and Finally with pure "White". Some scratches and streaks of oil and soot were applied later to create a used look.

I´m still undecided in which way i´ll finish the Tracks and the lower Body of the Marder. I´m pending between "wet" Muddy look by using pigmented acrylic paste followed by some gloss Varnish or "Dry" Mud Look by using several Pigments...  

I´m open for every Idea, so if you want... just drop me a Line! ^^

Gabriel Seth --> Sanguinius Priest Conversion W.I.P.

Yesterday i started a little Conversion. I found the Body of Gabriel Seth (Chaptermaster of the Flesh Tearers) in my Sparebox. At the same Time some Parts of an Space Marine Apothecary and a Powerfist  fell into my Hands.... so i started to convert the Mini into an Sanguinian Priest for my Angels Sanguine.

Here the Result so far, only the Details of the Paintjob have to be done.....


As you can see the conversions are very easy. Only swapping some Parts and adding some Partshere and there... (the Icon on the Backpack for Example) . Easy but effective....

WH40K Chaos Renegade Militia

Hi Folks and Fellows....

Today i want to share with you my first Squad of custom build Chaos Renegade Militias for my WH40K Chaos Project.

To build these Guys i used 2 different Kits from Games Workshop: one Box of WH Fantasy Empire Flaggelants and a Box of WH40K Imperial Guard Cadians.
Because sometimes less is more, I only added the Cadian Weapons and Arms to the Flaggelants to get these chaotic looking Guys.

I decided to use Green/Blue Clothings because i want to use Unit in my upcoming Alpha Legion Army. IMHO the Colours work well in addition to the tanned and bleached Skin i gave them. Finally i only had to add some Chaosicons (Parts of Chaosstars and easy "A´s" for Alpha Legion) to the Shoulderpads.

The Minis are based on Pieces of Cork which create really nice Rockformations. You have only to paint them in a Grey Basetone and after that apply some Pigments to let them look more realistic...

so here they are...

Sunday Afternoon´s W.I.P ^^

One Crewman left to go.... after that: Assembly and finishing Touches ^^

something "cold" for hot, sunny Afternoons! ;)

Hi Folks and Fellows.....

after a really long Time of absence, there are many things, that i want to share with you in the next Time....

Today there is something at the Horizon for my WW2 "Wiking" Troops.

If you are actually build up German WW2 Forces, and you are in need of halfway accurate and cheap PzKpfW IV Models then the Models from Plasticsoldier Company are the right Choice! Because of that, i obtained some boxes and started to create lots of different Types of this well known and heavyly used Tank.

Today i want to share with you one of the first winterstyled PzKpfW IV for my "Wiking".






I build this Model straight out of the Box because i want to use this Vehicle in Wargames and not for Displayboards etc. The only Thing i changed was the Commander. I added a hood by using Greenstuff and painted the whole clothing in White to let him look like wearing Winterdress. 

Another 2 of this Tanks waiting now for the Whitewash and the ordered Custom "Wiking" Decals are still underway.... 

This was the first Time i tried to create a whitewashed/ winterwashed look but i think the result is not too bad at all....
