Last Post for 2010!

So, the Year 2010 has come to an End. Only a few hours left till we are on our way through the next year. I wish all of you a happy new Year 2011!

40K..."very British" ^^

Today´s the last of the celebrating Days of Christmas in Germany, so it´s time to "warm up" my Fingers for coming Paintjobs after the 3 Days of celebrating and lazyness.

For this instance, i decided to give one of my Warhammer 40K imperial Officers a "british" look. I truly love the colors of the british Uniforms of world war 2, so it was great fun to paint this little guy.

"God safe the Quee...öhm...Emperor!" ^^

As allways when i paint british uniforms, i used Vallejos "70921 English Uniform" for the Clothing, applied some washing with GW´s "Devlan Mud" and finally added Layers of English Uniform and a final Mix of it with Vallejos "72039 Plague Brown" to highlight the whole clothing. The Armourplates were painted with Vallejo "70924 Russian Uniform" and the Webbing was painted with "70988 Khaki"

Now i only have to apply some fictive Unit insignias on the shoulderpads. I think small Insignias in Red/Blue will work well. 

Maybe i will start a whole 40K Imperial Army in "british" Style, but first there are too many other projects to finish. (and i don´t know an facturer who offers seperate Heads in 28mm with typical british Helmets.)

Thats all for today....

To all my followers.....

This is dedicated to all my followers and visitors: I wish all of you a merry christmas and i hope, Santa is going to bring you all you wish and desire!  But also keep in Mind all the people who can´t celebrate Christmas. We´re blessed because we´re able to take time for christmas and for having some Hours and Days with the people we love!
Last but not least, think about our all troops who are in Warzones all over the World.

A MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU! 

Additionally i want to thank all of you for visiting and following my little Blog! 
It's been almost a year since my first post, and the result so far has exceeded my  expectations!  most important aspect of publishing my works, was, is and  will be, you the loyal fellows and enthusiastic Tabletoppers and Modellers that have had a great impact on my efforts in 
painting so far!


Hope in the future i can stand your expectations!


so far....

A little "Before - After" report....

Before:

blank Org´kka Hero

and now after 4 Hours and many many Paintingsteps with a lot of Vallejo Paints:

nearly finished....

 This Mini took more than 4 Hours to paint. As ever, i used acrylics from the Game Colour Range from Vallejo (except some washes from GW).

While painting, this little Figure offerd more and more tiny little Parts to paint. A small horn here, a much smaller Detail there.... 

Now the rest of this commission will be assembled and painted faster. (This Guy is the biggest and heavyiest detailed Figure of the whole Lot) Only 13 Orks left......

back to Work! ^^....
