Gimiak's last post...

... this year of course. ;] Well, I must admit that I'm a very slowly painter. Yesterday I've only finished librarian's staff and make some small correction on the left hand. That's it. Poor.



As for my previous post about choosing an army I've decided to colect Orks for Wh40k. They got a lot of fine detailed plastic models, cool poses, faces and sluggaz. I thought about an army rooster on Christmas and I decided to include some Nobz on foot, Stormboyz (15 - 20) and Nobz on warbikes... Actually not on warbikes but on cybork boars. There are new plastic Boar Boyz for WFB, which look very good, so I will use them as this unit. Ork army also need a powerful warboss! And there is one mini that fits this gap. A real warboss on boar, of course. The one, the only... Gorbad Ironclaw.

Maybe this army rooster will not be a powerful one, but I'll play it anyway. In March GW will realese some new minis for Orcs and Goblins for WFB, maybe I will find some other cool minis to include in my rooster intead of current minis. I always wanted to have a Feral Orks army. If there will be savage orks, then they will work perfectly as boyz. ;]

At the end I would like to wish you Happy New Year 2011.

Librarian and plans for first quarter 2011

Hi there,

On the begining I would like to post my progress on librarian with staff and book.


Today I'll further continue my work on him. As for 2011 first quarter plans... Well, I do have a lot of miniatures to paint but I've already choosen miniatures which I would like to paint. So here is the current list of models which I would like to paint in first quarter of the next year:
- 1 x librarian with staff and book (I'm sure I'll not winish this guy today)
- 3 x Assault Squad members
- 3 x Tyranid Raveners (plastic)
- 3 x Assault Squad members (the last ones from my first army rooster)
- 1 or 2 Stormravens (one in red color scheme, one in black (DC) color scheme)
- 1 x Imperial Guard Nork Deddog Ogryn Bodyguard.
I'll be very happy if I could finish these models in three months. Tyranids Raveners will be for sale. The last model - Nork Deddog - is an old IG model, which I would like to put in a small diorama. So stay tuned for more of my (boring) posts. :P

Regards,
Gimiak

Gimiak's 2010 summary

Hi,

2010 is almost over and I think it is the best time to look back and make a small summary of a painted models in this year. Till today I've painted:
* for Blood Angels army:
- two Drop Pods
- three Razorbacks
- three Baal Predators
- one Landraider
- one Sternguard Veteran
- one original Lemartes, Guardian of the Lost (old model)
- ten Death Company models
- one Space Hulk Terminator #2
- one Reclusiarch / Chaplain
- nine Assault Squad models
* other:
- one Lizardmen Scar Veteran
- one Lizardmen Skink Warchief 1
- one Dwarf Lord 'tired after battle'
- one Daemons of Chaos Blood Crusher
- one Necron Lord with Resurrection Orb

So if I count correctly that makes 37 models. I'm satisfied with this number. I was hoping to finish my assault squads this year, but I couldn't make it. I've to make better pictures of each squad and put them on blog. Tomorrow I'll put my plan for first quarter of 2011.

almost ready...

Hi
Here's an almost finished Urien. Around 4-5 hours of painting left I guess. I can't really focus on painting this guy. I get distracted after 15 min painting, that's why it's taking me so long:/
There are few thing that needs to be done here: some more work on skin, belly, blood effects and slime and base.
the photo is quite poor but there will be better when I finish this mini.
hope I can finish it till new year
cheers! loler

Sanguinor, Exemplar of the Host is now ready to battle !!!

Hi,

At last he can fight for the glory of the God Emperor hehe. I planted him on a magnetized scenic base so he can be used for gaming. I enjoyed painting his golden armor and if someone wants to practice NMM this is the right model to practice.


If you are interested check him out on ebay because this miniature is for sale.

And let me know what do you think about him.

Regards,

RED
