A Plastic Crack Addiction. SWs, Knights, DG, Necromunda, and more.
 

Seeing Tossiden's SW log has finally inspired me to start the one I've been meaning to start for a long time. This is going to take some time to complete, as I'm studdying part time and working full time, as well as my commitment to Modern Warfare 2:wink:.

So, lets start with Wolf Lord Alaric Nightrunner.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0940.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0941.jpg

This was going to be my Bjorn, but I think the new FW dread will take that role soon enough.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0920.jpg

Hurin the Loud, former pack brother to Grimnar.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0688.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0690.jpg

WG battle leader.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...DSCF0691-1.jpg

My first batch of scouts.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0907.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0911.jpg

I'm not a fan of the Lucas model, but this guy is going to lead my squad of Sky Claws.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0918.jpg

I had a spare Grimnar, so decided to make an alternative WL, or Arjac Rockfist.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0932.jpg

Rune Priest Egil Iron-Eye. I'm thinking of giving him the rune staff from the old Njal model.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0962.jpg

A drop pod I received from Morfangdakka in one of Heresy's gift exchanges.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0959.jpg

Some of my most recent BCs.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0958.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0957.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0956.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0955.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0954.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0953.jpg


Ulric the Slayer, as painted nearly 20 years ago. I've decided not to strip him, just rebase him and touch him up, as, considering my skill level at the time I'm still proud of the paint job. He'll also be a nod to my old great company.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF0951.jpg

I also have 15 old termies that I haven't yet decided to strip, a squad of old scouts and some of the old Inquisitors in termie armour that may or may not play a part in the rise of Alaric.

My goal is to have the bulk painted by the end of the summer, but considering I'm working full time and studying part time this may be a tad ambitious.

I hope to update on a reasonably regular basis, using this thread as something to spur me on and get painting.

Holy crap, going gangbusters here! Nice work so far with done decent painting happening.

Looks like you have a lot on your plate there :shok:

The painted stuff so far looks very cool, i really like your SW grey and will be looking forward to seeing more.

Thanks guys. After looking back on the thread, I just realised the magnitude of the task I set myself, but, hey, I'll give it a go. If I even get half done I'll be happy.

Finally found some time to get something done, and decided to try and finish this guy off. Still have a bit of touching up to do, especially now that the photos have highlighted a few more things to do. but I'm happy with how he's turned out.

I gave him what are supposed to be electric blue eyes, but I'm not sure about the results. What do you guys think?

i personally think the eyes turned out really well!

Finally got some brush time in!

I knew at the start of this thread it I might have been over reaching a wee bit, what with college, work and real life. However, having finished college (with honours!), taken some time off work, and suspended real life, I managed to get something done.

I haven't decided to use this guy as Alaric, or just a WGBL, but either way I'm really happy with how he turned out. I still have a few touch ups to do, particularly the big fat thumb print on the base.

A squad of scouts I really found hard to get going with. Got there eventually though.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF1196.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF1197.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF1195.jpghttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF1194.jpg

I have a few more base coated, including several of the old edition metal SWs.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF1198.jpg

This guy started as a moment of boredom, but he's grown on me, and will soon join the ranks of Alaric's WG.http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...m/DSCF1201.jpg

That's all for now, but the above collection of models waiting to be painted now includes a LR crusader, another dread, a land speeder, and a razorback. I will now be able to commit myself to getting it all done.

I like them! I really like the one olding the Ork head :grin: have some rep mate, I look forward to seeing more! :)

They are looking good man! Glad I was of some help getting you started, as this seems to turn out really well, and I am looking forward to see more of it! :)
I just feel sad that you have alredy outpainted me lol! Well, at least you inspired me to continue (work allowing).

Good luck and happy painting :victory:

Cool, maybe we'll end up dragging each other along. Get some more models done, they'll drive me to keep going.:victory:
