Update #17

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Change of plan, with MOAB fast approaching, it occured to me that I am no where near complete in my army painting.  Thus the new plan; get a legal 1250 point list painted asap.  It won’t be overly competitive, but should be fun, and playing 10 games in 3 days against different people can’t hurt my learning curve 🙂

 So, time for some big point minis to hit the painting table.  #1 the Wraithlord, his smaller cousins squad will get finished off next.

A choice of 2 photos for the remaining profile, one washed out with a flash, the other hidden in shadow.  The trusth is there, somewhere in between ……….

 And finally, a shot for scale – and because I wanted another photo of this guy – pretty happy with the result 🙂

Update #16

After a couple of months of bludging, I figured it was about time to start getting rid of my silver and black army.  The Fire Dragons will get finished soon, and I will intermingle with them the newest addition to the board.  The Wraithguard.

I am pretty happy with the result on this one, I may need to buy a new container of white primer, since the surface I started with was a little chalky, but enough excuses 😉  The result is below:

I will be a bit more aggressive with my fade on the gun muzzel next time, I took a bit too long to fade to near white.
