New Project

I'm now looking to start a new project but before I start I thought I would figure out how many points I have completely painted for both of my armies. As it turns out, I have 67 points of Menoth with 2 casters and also 67 points with 3 casters for Circle. I organized my unpainted/un-assembled as well. Since I'll be leaving for Canada in a couple of days, I don't want to start a unit. It's probably going to be a caster or a solo. Now all I need to do is to choose which one.
(Sorry about the picture quality. IPhones are convenient but take lousy closeups.)

Buldur and Feral Warpwolf were painted by someone else

Avatar completed, (more or less)

I think that this model wins my award for the longest period of time to complete from start to finish. I started it nearly two years ago and I only got in the zone with it during one painting session a week ago. All the other sessions were just weren't going right. Green stuff job was awful, Colors weren't blending quite right, dry brushing had too little or too much paint on it, the initial color chosen on the Jack's hull wasn't right... The base, the shield and the arms were the only parts that went decently smooth.
I'm happy with the modification since this was my first major one but there is a lot of improvement to be had in my green stuff manipulation and shaping.
The inspiration for this mod came from a few models that I saw on coolminiornot and from web pics of broken zealot's Avatar (Who as I just discovered, also happens to be on IABN.)
Thanks for checking it out.

Harbinger of menoth WIP

I'm quite satisfied with the results of this model. Of all the Privateer Press models available I find this one to be the most impressive. I'm mostly done the harby but I still need to work on her robes. I'll probably attack the acolytes tomorrow and keep the robes until last.
Here's a quick shot of a dry fit.

Finished Castigator

As you can already tell, I like the "showroom" look of my jacks. I haven't been brave enough to try to paint my models with battle wounds, scratches, mud and dirt. Eventually I will take a crack at a battle torn jack but in the meantime, here's my most recent...right of the showroom floor.

Deliverer Sunburst Crew

Here's my completed Deliverer sunburst crew that I finally based and flocked. I found a nice ash flock that can replace the black drybrush I was doing to my yellow grass flock. I wanted a burnt look on my bases and this new flock really achieves that.

Avatar coming along

It's been nearly a year and a half since I worked on my Avatar and I've been thinking about different ways to complete him. The biggest decision was how to convert his sword (spatula). I knew that I wasn't the best sculptor and I would probably have to hide my shady green stuff job somehow. After looking online for various ideas I decided to add fire to the blade. This would not only hide my poor workmanship but it would also reflect the flame burst rule. Since the avatar is walking over a cryx wreck, I added a little fire to it to complement the flame burst idea.
I've also been debating whether to keep the "drapes" on him or to avoid them completely. I figured that the biggest reason that I wouldn't add them would be due to laziness and I was a little scared that it would make the model too busy. The pictures that I took are of the model pinned but not completely glued. Some of the drapes are completed (shield side) and since I'd like to add flames on the other side of the sword, I'll add them at the end. One big annoyance is that the rear cloth is missing and I looked up how much it would cost me to ship it to Cyprus... 50 cents for the part, $30.00 for shipping...I don't think so!!!
