Thank you all for the comments.
I'm still to start on a lava board to display them as it will be bespoke for the completed army. I haven't decided how far to go with these so the board is on hold at the moment.

@Admiral Benbow: I got the metallic red colour by painting the machine silver, using dark ink then re-applying the silver for highlights when the ink was dry. I then coated it in Tamiya Clear Red which gives it that glossy red look.
Hope that's helpful.

Just completed my Chaos Dwarf gyrobomber. Pretty much as-is from the box apart from skulls to get rid of the "vanilla dwarf" symbols. The pilot's head is from Mantic with some goggles and horns added. The base is a piece of lava rock.

Next up will be some infantry as I thought it was about time I did some core units!

Excellent conversion and painting (love the goggles).

What's the "VE" stand for, "Very Evil"?

Thats awesome - love the head on shot.

The glossy red is very cool - I may well attempt that on some of my own chaotic figures.

It's the Chaos Dwarf army symbol/rune but I like "Very Evil"

Thanks gents, much appreciated!

Just completed my first block of Chaos Dwarf infantry. They are all Russian Alternative minis in resin on resin bases.

Supercool thread! Really, everything is splendid here, but that bomber...

I like the painting. But I love the mixing and selection of figures just as much - nice "lava land!"

I suspect it is a variant of tamiya/ink on metal to easen the job for you?

Why the square bases?!

Using inks is definitely a time saver and it gives some interesting effects, The Tamiya clear red for the metallics is a bit of a signature for this army as is a thin blue wash over any bright silver to make it pop. I can't recommend Army Painter inks highly enough for their results and now use them on all my models.
I use the square bases because I really like the resin ones from "Foundations of War" and they look nice ranked up ( IMO ). From the start I wanted to use movement trays and I think the "Warbases" Regiment trays are cool because you can rank them up but the spaces give enough room to stop them being too crowded.

Just so fill in pics whilst I'm working on other stuff.
Here are some shots of my Army so far. They are currently on a shelf in my upstairs landing until I sort out space in my games room. (The pics aren't too great because of a lack of good natural light so I had to use a flash.)
