Here are some conversions I'm working on for my Ork Army, The Grabby Gitz. Based on the Dawn of War Ork Wartrakk and inspired by this tutorial from Irondog Studios. Here is a pic of the custom track section. I need to wait until I can get some more silicone rubber before I can cast enough track sections for all the Trakks.

Having re-vamped some of the other units in my Warriors of Chaos army I thought the Warshrine needed an update. Once GW released their model for the Warshrine my old ones looked a bit small so I decided this one needed to be bigger. Not having an appropriate platform for the shrine was the first stumbling block so I set to work texturing a piece of poly-urethane to create a wooden platform. The original plan was to have the shrine held aloft by 3 eagles but then the practicalities of that in battle necessitated a change. So I built a chassis for it and now have the eagles pulling the shrine. Here is a close-up of the details on top of the shrine. The Ogre Butcher is sacrificing a Skaven to appease the Dark Gods watched over by 2 Tzeentch statues. A few extra shots of the shrine from different angles.
Magos Scratchbuildicus has reawakened and started to Scratch Build again. I decided last weekend that I wanted a few more fliers for my Chaos so the Magos started work on 3 Hell Blade fighters. After 4 evenings work I've got 1 almost complete and the others well on the way. I've sculpted then cast the Reaper Auto-cannons and I still need to get 3 more cast. The engines and underside thrusters are also more detailed than the first 2. I also need to sort out some tubing for behind the cockpit.
Progress continues with the pustules added and a basecoat on the metallic areas on the top half. I'm gonna try and use the GW Spray gun to paint the main green colours for the hull and see how that plays out. My Warlord class titan has been through may iterations in the 5 Years since it was started. The latest version is a Plague Lord titan for my Apostles of Contagion army. My latest addition is a Nurgle Scythe for his close combat weapon and strengthening the joints. The Vulcan-Mega bolter on the back of the fist has also had its barrels changed from flimsy straws to nice solid brass tube. Click the picture for a look at more WIP shots.
The next job will be adding pustules and strengthening the legs as they are quite wobbly at the moment. |
ChrisI've been into wargaming since I was 8 and this is an attempt to document my hobby progress. It may well just prove my 'ooh shiny' sydrome. We'll just have to wait and see. Archives
