----- Every Wednesday is project day @ TINBITZ -----

Chi3f: Working on highlights to Commisar Yarrick, adding reds to the Power Klaw and refining the cloak. He should be finished by Friday (work permitting). Pics will be up Saturday :)

Hoot: Building and magnetizing a Nid army. He almost drilled a hole in his shirt with the dremel tool haha. No models were harmed in the process.

Check back every Wednesday as we'll have weekly pics up of our projects

Peace-

Here are a few more IG models. The guy below is how most of my models will be based for table top quality.

Pilot from the Battle for Macragge box set.


Old Style Ratling model.

As promised here's some of Commissar Yarrick. Currently I just have a base coat and a little shading/highlights started. From here I'll be adding to the Claw and face mostly then cleaning up detail.

This last image is close to actual size.

Big Thanks to Kr1ch for getting these pics taken tonight. He would consider these low quality, but well, you be the judge lol. Here's some of my first painted stuff. Most of these were attempts at techniques such as dry brushing, washing. highlighting, etc.

This Rhino was my first attempt at painting a vehicle



My 2nd attempt: Ultra marines Dreadnaught. I went back and repainted a little to match the codex.



Sgt. Telion of the Ultra Marines. This is another WIP. The face is nearly done

I'm thinking up a few quick tourney lists to play my buddies this weekend to prepare for the mini-tourney. It'll consist of more troops and less vehicles.

Practice List 1
HQ: Captain or Master of the Forge - 100 pts
Troop 1: 10 man Tac squad +Flamer +Missle - 170 pts
Troop 2: 5man scouts +Telion - (75 + 50) 125 pts
Fast: None
Elite: None
Heavy: Thunderfire cannon - 100pts

Total: 495 pts

The idea behind this list is mainly support. This list is lacking in melee, but makes up for it in utility. Telion's ability to pick off targets in mobs is nice and the Thunderfire Cannon adds an extra threat the army needs (ignore cover, adds dif terrain effect). The only variation I may try is replacing the Thunderfire Cannon or Tac Squad with a Dev. Squad. I would probably have to downgrade a few things to bring them in or replace a troop choice with them (if tourney rules allow). We shall see.
