What color should I paint the Wild Riders

Red, because they're Saim-Hann units.

Agree - actually a pretty good result (painting, obviously - more the final colour selection).

Thanks guys.

The Falcon turrets are nearly ready for paint, in the meantime I've been working on the Shining Spears. The white and blue is finished on these guys, just the metal, gems and decals left to go.

Thanks warburten.

I finished the first of the six Falcon turrets last Friday right before <abbr>NEAT</abbr>. The next six are going to be magnetised so I can swap them out for Fire Prism turrets (haven't started on those yet though).







I also did some conversion work earlier this week on my Revenants. I did some leg swaps to add some pose variety and magnetized the weapons. I have some Vibrocannon arm conversions to work on and a bit of puttying to do before these see paint.



Finally, I finished up the lances and gems on the Shining Spears last night, and put on their decals as well. They'll need a bit of touch up and bases edges before they get top coated.

those oranges man, so vibrant.

Also the first time I've seen good pictures of those old revenants, they look great! I was planning to 3d print one of the modern humanoid ones but these are so cool! Would mean me needing to make a CAD model of them.  :?

I'm pretty sure it was Mark Twain who said the three constants in life were death, taxes and having to model you're own old-school revenants.

I'm digging the Akuyaku-esq tanks. I'll get getting some for a Quar Siegemasters army.

And here I was misatributing that quote to Eisenhower!

Cheers! I'm hoping to get to some siegemaster proxies at some point, assuming microword doesn't get tired of yet more tanks.

I finished 6 or so of the color sections on the Aeronef ships but I need to get going on the last bits of Eldar for the Epic World Tournament in Scotland next month. So orange is back on the painting pallet. I got the black undersides and cockpits done. Next up is the little bit of black trim on the top, the weapons and the orange treatment.





I'm not sure if I'll have time but I'd also like to get 3 Fire Prism turrets done for the army as well. We'll see.

I agree. Once I finish these Falcons and get the grass backlog taken care of I do a shoot. Another week or two.

I'd like to finish the basing on the Warmaster Dwarves as well as their artillery before the end of the year but I'm burnt out on them for now. I headed back to the Void Spinners (third times the charm) and finish 2 of them. I hope to finish the third, touch-up the black highlights and de-gloss them this weekend.
