Looks really good, but I don´t recognize it. What is it? A Cryx Warjack or some sort of GW Chaos Dreadnought or something completely different? Great piece anyway.

Dunno what it is, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to encounter it  :o

It's the new Chaos Dreadnought from the new WH40K 6.Ed. Dark Vengeance box

Very cool, I didn't like the new model at all but this one looks miles better than the GW paint job!

few reinforcements... more to follow, if i can keep the motivation going, all in same sort of bulk paint job style
the quality of the GW figs is a bit of a mixed bag (though generally better than they look in the official paint jobs)
last picture not great but shows the planned scheme/technique - mostly spray work (black base, light red splatter spray, hairspray, topcoat, washes + lots of pigments) works pretty effectively + quickly to get through lots of figs (if you like over the top rust)

few more bits and pieces




for me this is unheard off progress in getting an army painted, mainly due to simplified/standard paint job,

below is wip which shows the main paint step, all figs are primed with back spray then given light over spray with red spray can, fairly roughly (takes a bit off confidence to do this step, so ive practiced on off cuts etc), figures look ropey after doing!
then basically can work on from there as much as want, for unit figures;
sprayed or stippled on a very worn top coat,
general devlan mud wash
metal dry brush
rust pigment layers using turps as medium
bit of detail work
matt spray
fin

Totally love it, great paint style! Really awesome, Im so into the rust effect. I like the other colour, the cream/green stuff. Very very awesome.

Neg crits, could maybe do with some flaked off numbers/decals on the vehicles?

Also, why does the hell-brute have its head exposed? A super heavy trooper/assault robot with its puny head exposed! SO stupid and the model comes in parts allowing a really easy and quick conversion. I would have put a helmeted space marine head in there, or gone all plasticard on it.
