Rogue's ankle broke just as I was basing her. I've tried to salvage here as best I could buy it turns out even a 1mm drill bit was too big...
So I've done a shoddy greenstuff job... Anyone asks she's tripped and her ankle's swollen... Really rubbish though. All that time painting and she breaks at the last hurdle.
Aside from that my Xmen Starter just needs a few rocks painted and I'm done.
Planning on playing through the Dungeon Saga campaign over the course of 3 nights tomorrow

I don't think I have posted on this thread yet but I'm rather excited with my current Deffwotch project. I actually made the last 2 Frag Kannon boyz since this picture and I'm in the process of brainstorming how to make an Orky Drop Pod (probably scratch built to have a real Orky Ramshackle feel to it). After they are all painted up ill make some crude looking face masks for them (think of the masks the Spy uses in Team Fortress 2) to complete the disguise.
Apologies for the shoddy image quality. Camera on my phone is gak at focusing.

Deffwotch! I love it.
I'm struggling to make headway on these blasted Guardians. I just can't seem to find a way to make highlighting yellow interesting.

I've been doing a lot of yellow recently for my X-Men. It was weird basically all my attempts at highlighting the yellow somehow merged into a single colour so you can't tell they're highlighted all.

Yeh, he's enormous. Towers over the Sigmarite Stormcast, and they make Space Marines look titchy. I'm not quite sure what to make of that to be honest.
As for me, I've started highlighting the Dire Avenger's armour plate instead of the Guardians. It's just as tedious, except in blue. Bah!

I like him though, nice and big, makes for an excellent centre piece or boardgame piece indeed.

It's just a bit... odd. I mean the scale of him! He's like a 12' mega-giant! Unless of course AoS is more like 35/40mm figures nowadays.
As for hobby work - still struggling with Dire Avengers and Guardians.

Sneaky Striking Scorpion
|
Finishing up a color proof for a friend - Canoptek wraith in the Nihilakh Dynasty colors. The gold ended up rather amusing; if I hold the model upside down, it all looks the same color of copper. But if it's rightside up, the shading is more apparent, and it is clearly gold. Strange trick of metallic paints I guess. Going to wait until she is around to finish off the turquoise, so I can show her how to do that.
Otherwise, shading up the red on a Blood Angels Contemptor Dreadnought. I cannot believe how simple the model is. He's going to look really plain if I do not do a bunch of freehand on him...

AOS isn't differently scaled... it's just that the heroes, such as this Khorne guy (and Khorne in particular) are sculpted in such a way as to suggest that they are all brawn and no brain

That chap is so big that he is now hefting an old Minotaur Lord metal double-headed axe without looking particularly bothered. Which is... disturbing? But pretty cool too, I must admit!
