I've always liked the Hanomag truck thing, so no reason - other than it was cheap in Hobbycraft.
Excellent paint jobs as per usual temps as good if not better than the stuff I saw in Warhammer World.
My mate used to but and paint Warhammer when he was a teen, after the visit he's now obsessed and has just bought himself a dreadnought to paint just for the shiz.
I must admit I caved and bought one of those Dunecrawlers I see you had a game with, I'm going to WWII tho.
I'm definitely not better than the Eavy Metal display stuff in WHW, every time I see that stuff I am gobsmacked, but I could probably comfortably get away with sticking my stuff alongside an their Army Painting teams.
Dunecrawlers are exceptional kits - AdMec have a very WW2 feel to them, if WW2 had been fought on Mars.
I have done a silly amount of work compared to normal as i've been in Notts, and because I am getting my transport paid for as it is more expensive than in Glasgow, I have splashed out on a good deal on some big Tyranids and Adeptus Titanicus. Really looking forward to painting those up.
I say experiment... really I am just using it to speed up painting stuff. I'd love to find a force that I go wild on blending experiments with, but I am too happy with these colours for Tyranids that I will just stick to it.
Bonus mega zoom because I need people to know I spent 30 seconds trying to get my shaky ass hands to paint a dot for his pupil
Hullo thread. Not playing (yet), but here are some small men I did after almost 20 years of not painting. This is all Tempy's fault, seeing his awesome work made me want to get the brushes out again.
Edit: Painted in order from left to right, which is why the guy on the left looks so ropey compared to his bros. Sorry you had to be first under the bristles my guy.

Basically I knew what I wanted to do, read a guide and then wasn't sure exactly which bits I wanted so just brought a few extra types to mess with stuff.
It's a big-ish outlay at this point, granted, but it's going to be how I base the rest of the models I end up doing and you get a lot of tufts in each pack, about 77 in each box I think.
The bases were prepped with GW stirland mud texture paint and dry brushed with steel legion drab and then rakarth flesh to do the soil layer before adding the flock, then placing the tufts.

I was wondering about that foot for a while, couldn't work out where it belongs on the top model. Speaking of which, that shield is a case of form over function, Shirley?
Bashed these out fairly quickly over a couple of nights with Contrast. Delightful models, really enjoyed painting them. Looking forward to actually playing Warcry
Warcry is... not quite Kill team. It has a big emphasis on terrain and small warbands clashing, but unlike Kill Team it's a lot quicker, a lot more vicious, and it's simplified from Kill team in that it uses bespoke profiles rather than Full Fat Warhammer profiles for its units.
There are also 6 new warbands explicitly for Warcry, all chaos themed and very cool looking, with two more to come, and support for some existing AoS factions.
£100 is a chunk, but it's £75/85 at third parties, and what you get is insane value, as usual from GW:
Rule book £25
Battleplan Cards £15
Iron Golems £30
Untamed Beasts £30
6 Raptoryx and 6 Furies £??? probably... £20?
Bloodwind Spoil Terrain set (in the region of £50-70)
So you're looking at £170-200 worth of stuff - absurd value.
One thing that looks good from the rulebook is the way it has specific terrain layouts based on the terrain you get in the box, and different objectives, deployments and twists that you shuffle together to get unique missions, as well as a bunch of warband campaigns in the book, and tables for playing long Mordheim style stories.
At this point I am tempted to just rename this thread "Boardgames and also Tempy posts his shit every week."
Basically at the finishing point for my Warlord, Caelesti Iudici of the Legio Gryphonicus. Pleased with it I think, waiting for some modelling tape so I can do the patterns on the weapon. I need a bigger lightbox.
Excellent work Tempo, especially that horrible, blasted, wasteland of a base your big robot is walking through.
In other news, a dad takes his five sons to play in the park after dinner on a fine summer's evening.
Fuck you I won't colour correct this photo it's supposed to be the evening, I don't give a shit that you can't make out any of the colours properly because of the direct evening sunlight.
"Let me tell you, when yung Rouj had his Senna and Mansell Scalextric, Frank was the goddamn Professor X of F1."
I really wanna hang some banners for it, but I need the weapons to be fairly neutral for the Legio Krtyos Titan I am painting. Magnets mean they can swap easily.
