Josh Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Hey Bros! Just wanted to put together a little area to share what I'm working on, get advice & hopefully get some sweet ideas ^^ I'm 28, live in Queensland Australia, been involved in the hobby since mid to late 90's (involved on and off) Basically collected 40k for ages but found a good solid group in 6th-7th Edition Fantasy and just started up again. I have a Freeguild army which is becoming boring due to me playing them as a gunline & looking to start a Rotbringers army enjoy some photos Marauders marked by Nurgle (using pox walkers for something different) Some off my Freeguild WIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyGeekyPersona Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Great to see the pox walkers used as Mark of Nurgle marauders - I've been trying to do the same, but I've been struggling with some of the more sci-fi sculpts - I'll be watching your blog for inspiration! lovely paint job on the horse - and a well thought out scheme to boot. Keep up the good work. MGP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 So Ive been really lazy & pulled my finger out to do some hobby, ditched the rotbringers because i really didnt enjoy painting them and just got my nighthaunt to a table top standard and did some more work on my lumi so much to do still But the plan is to play nighthaunt for 2018 & have freepeople as a back up / something different when i finish them I also got some stormcast and think ill paint them all the same as my freepeople to keep my order all looking the same if I want to ally anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysandestolpe Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 that stormcast is tight AF! I know how hard it is to do white on dark solid and clean lines. But I'd say give that white line on the inside of the cape another go, or even remove it. At this level of paintjob, that adds more distraction that aid to the models finished look. You could even do gold instead, which might blend slightly more with the purple, especially if you do a retributor gold, as it is primarily yellow. I'd also do another highlight on the grey, although I'm sure you're still working on that. Especially on the top of the models where there are a lot more things going on. SOLID paintjob on this guy, man. Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it up! thanks heaps man! yeah i agree the white line blows hard, not sure what to do there tbh. was thinking even just something in the corner to reduce the need to nail the whole thing. I completely agreed about the armour needing a touch more to make it pop, but i feel like im running out of talent from here haha. The whole thing need bringing up but ill get there thanks again for the compliment, appreciate the thoughts most of all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 I also broke some of my spirit hosts & my generals head broke off so i fixed them, also tried to make them more interesting with bringing out the faces & hands i feel like they need something done with the weapons & i feel my general needs more to bring it up but the army was pretty rushed to make it for a tournament.
