Coming to a close ....

The models are packed up and ready for shipment.  In my opinion they look great.  I hope Zain will be pleased with them. Here are some completed pics.










On a side note, I went down to Empire games today and got a few games in.  It has been awhile since I played, and it really made me want to do some more battle reports.  I would like to get two in a month, but I will try to get at least one a month in.  Well thanks again for tuning in .....

Ynnead Rising !!!! ... almost finished

Well I finished all the detail work last night, and I am going to be painting the highlights this evening.  I really like the way this is all coming together.  I will seal the minis when I am finished with the highlights, then I will gloss varnish all the stones.  That is my favorite part of painting Eldar.  The varnish just make the stones look stunning, and it really completes the overall appearance of the model.  Here are some updated pics ....













Thanks again for tuning in,

Ynnead Rising: UPDATE !!!!

So I haven't been moving as fast as I would like on my current project.  I really wanted to have all the highlights done by this evening, unfortunately work has hindered this.  I did however finish most of the details on my current project, I only have the Stones and Crystal to finish (I should have the crystals finished before bed time). Then the highlights will be applied and they will safely make there way back to Zain60 to tear up some opponents on the table top!!! here are some of the updated pics ......









I really like the way the canopies look on the black background, and when the highlights are applied they will stand out even better.  The Spirit Stones will bring these guys to life even more as well.   I will have another update in a couple of days ..... until then.....

Thanks for tuning in  .....

Ynnead Rising !!!!


So my friend Zain60 contacted me to paint some more of his Ynnead Craftworld tanks this week.  I was excited because I had a blast painting the first round of Serpents.  (If you haven't seen them here are some pics.....)




This time around he asked me to paint two Fire Prisms and Two Vypers.  The scheme on these will be a reverse of the Serpents.  They will predominately black, with bone accents.  I just finished assembling and base coating all four vehicles and can't wait to start detailing (because that's the step when a model comes to life).  Here are some picks of the basic base coats ....





I am going to paint all the spirit stones red, and add some bone accents to the body (just like the Black accents in the Serpent pics above).  I think they will look really sharp all fielded together.  I will post more pics of the progress in a couple of days.

Thanks for tuning in,
