The thing that I'm pissed about is that you can't buy bits anymore, so if I want to make another one to match, I have to buy a whole dark peg?!?!?!? WTF?!?!?! GRRRRRRRRR.....

The bits thing is driving me nuts! I love ordering old models and parts to make my armies my own. I am so mad they got rid of everything! Those bitz packs are bogus too, charging more money than the stuff is worth! All the good packs they could create they leave out. Best wings are Dark pegasi and furies, and of course niether are avaiable.

The base is a rock with Kistler painted barrels.

The color scheme is Kistlers, actually i think its his Girls color scheme, he just painted it!

Ok so i have to paint 6 Dragon Princes and a Chariot to finish this army. The chariot is about 50% complete and is a few colors away from "good enough for Colonial".

I spent today painting these fucking Princes. Man i hate these fuckers. Anyway, they are almost done. The bodies will stay mostly black, i need to finish the highlights on all of the blue and green and do my best at trying to get the weapons painted... they actually dont look too bad. I need to work on the bases, they were rushed and look very "liney" if thats even a word.

Those are looking great! I love the bases. (not sure how different they look in real-life... digicams + internet often skew appearances)

I was painting my silverhelms last night: One unit of 10: 221 gems (I counted). Each one, a 5 color process. JUST the gems. I almost finished. Will try to post pics tonight.

Keep plugging away at it...

And here are the Princes, as done as they will be for this event.

WITHOUT FLASH



WITH FLASH

Well, the done parts look great! Come on man... you have hours today to finish them off. Do it!!!

hes too busy cleaning his car off...
Not sure why....
It just going to get dirty again after it "eats my dust"

I am not winning any painting awards anyway, besides, i need to go get booze.

I am not taking the Camaro... bracket broke yesterday holding the drivers side pipe up so it vibrates and could fall off while driving, gotta fix it on monday. Also, did and oil change and noticed one of the belts was cutting into the power steering hose so i need to get that replaced...

I actually like the way you did the would color on the bases...

Could you post up a step by step (color by color) way you did that?

Thanks..
