Ok, first of:
I have been collecting the DKoK for about 1½ years now, but due to the constant interference of everyday life (finishing my Masters, getting a new job, new dog, about to become a father and a new house... and whatnots on top of that) I haven't been able to get properly to grips with them.
About two weeks ago I finally began once again... I had hoped that I could have finished my two latest projects before going on vacation, but it doesn't seem like that's going according to plan either (leaving tomorrow).
These are the WIP photoes, so no fancy photoshop or "setting up for good light" has been used... these are authentic photoes taken stright from my workspace. Or as my girlfriens says it: My private little part of the warp :)

The gallery of my DKoK WIP:

My two latest projects (click for larger images):

Needs touch-up of the rust-effects.

Needs touch-up of rust effects and decals

C & C welcome - what should I do differently for my next thudd-guns and heavy mortars? Brighter highlights or more/less weathering?... Ideas more than welcome!

I love seeing a really beat up DKoK look, so heavy weathering and a rough look I think would look really great. Your current work is very good, keep it up with lots of pictures on the way!
