Ergonomically Terrific!

Hey gang! Just a quick post to throw out my thoughts on one of the new Eldar kits out there that has me very excited!

The Wraithfighter/Hemlock kit!

As an avid enthusiast of aircraft as well as an Aerospace Engineering student this kit really does tick a lot of the boxes for me!

Seen below in classical 3-view configuration it can be seen very easily that this aircraft for once displays signs of aerodynamic balancing as a sub sonic interceptor. I say subsonic for a few key reasons of which I will talk about after the pictures!

So I've been a busy boy

It's been a little while since last time I posted anything for the general public and suffice it to say I have indeed been a pottering in my 'workshop' also known as 'The study' or 'What the fuck happened, oh my god how did it get on the CEILING!'

Over the next few weeks I will endeavour to bring up the sum total of work on the blog, however due to the fact that I still study (apparently anyway) this may be a slow process.

So the Ultramarines do indeed come along, with only a few mishaps so far but a bevy of new hobby challenges, including new sculpting techniques, NMM, wet blending and some tricky airbrush work... oh and water effects.

The Contemptor Dreadnought has to be one of the sexiest models ever!

Secret Weapon Kickstarter

Ive decided to back this Kickstarter -  its a good concept from a good company and I think is going to add value to the community.

Get on and back em!

Ive gone for the $190 option as that gets me a table of terrain-  Hopefully Ill get the rolling fields for my dark ages project.  Delivery is marked for October this year plenty of time to get all my Vikings and Saxons Painted !

Then there where 2 units ! Vikings I mean

So not resting Ive kicked into getting a 2nd units done and as I took photo's of this formation I begun cleaning up a 3rd unit.  I figure while motivation is high keep on rolling :)

1st Lot of Viking raiders

So my bases arrived and very excited I must say- warbases have done a great job and I have got to work getting models based and pushing on with some Hirdmen.

Birthday Gifts and Delays!

Well I turned 33 yesterday,  3rd of the way there a witty individual said and I asked to where?  Anyway it was great to have the family all together eating laughing and just a general good time and to top it off I got some awesome gifts as well.

Painting Blood effects with Tamiya Clear Red

I have had allot of questions about how I paint blood on my models-  I decided to post up the tutorial I found recently that describes the technique. 

Hope this helps out a few people

Cheers
