    The spider's tangled web. Arachnid's WIP

    This is my log, there are many like it..

    But this one is mine.




    ********

    Part 1: Recaps and befuddlements


    Heres what im planning to get done :

    20 Csm's
    5 possessed
    8 khorne berserkers
    1 obliterator
    1 hq (lucius)
    1 rhino
    1 Defiler (its in the mail)


    1 10-man squad of csm's is "done" as far as painting goes anyway, just basing and varnish to go. (a touch-up here and there)

    some pics:


    (spot the mod, hehe)
    [
    Now, theyre a bit imperfect and rough around the edges, since theyre the first ever minis i did.
    (started basing some of them as a trial)



    Stay tuned for part 2 : "Kill, Maim BURN!"

    pt2 : KILL, MAIM, BURN!

    yes its time for part 2 of my chilling tale..


    Berserkers, our very own favourite "bling-tomatoes" as i call them.


    Here's the first one painted up, and i must say that im improving a bit with each figure.
    getting the right paints helps out a lot too




    i now know what "bad coverage" means, as you can tell from the pics, though i did get it smooth "enough" for a trial.

    http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d2...k/DSCF0016.jpg side views


    ive since then gotten a bucketload more paints, including foundation red.. so the coats are covering better now.


    the rest of them "in-progress" bluetacked and basecoated with mechrite:

    Looks really good, if you got the time you could put some extreme highlights on the gold though. Better than what i could achieve though.

    I would love

    I would love to see these guys based. It can make such a big difference.

    Are you looking forward to paining the Dread?

    both yes and no

    he'll be fun to paint.. cleaning him up and pinning.. not so much

    btw, what size base is supposed to come with the dread if any?
    didnt get one with mine

    I can see a solid improvement as your going on the beserkers look cool! I really like the champ. You should get a scenic base with the dred like brocken earth/rock give GW a ring they should send you one.

    Again a solid start nice work, :rep:

    A small update:



    csm squad 1 : Done
    Zerker squad: Done
    Lucius : Pinned & primed
    Obliterator: Pinned & primed
    csm squad 2 : not started
    Possessed : not started
    Rhino: not started
    Defiler : not started
    Dreadnought: not started


    New stuff:

    Sorcerer : not started


    Just had to buy a sorcerer, gonna magnetise some Possessed wings onto him.
    its the one with the spiky helmet and staff.

    gotta pick up some spawn next so i can go nuts with gift of chaos


    Lucius was easy enough to pin, the obliterator was a bit tougher.
    i think i pretty much got the weapon-loadout on him juust right, a lot of filing to make it all fit snug though.

    Btw, heres a tip if you're having trouble pinning the obliterator's weapons:

    dont clip the weapons clean off the sprue, but leave a piece and file the sprue piece down and form a pin out of it.

    Helped loads.




    P.s i love my Loctite "super attak"


    Pics to follow once i get something to show off
