Still doing it old school! Started another tank

Started painting another tank. WITH A BRUSH.. Felt bit like a last mohican because so many people have all those fancy airbrushes nowadays. Been thinking about buying myself a one but I have no idea what model and compressor should I buy. Any suggestions? I've heard badgers are quite ok?

But anyways, made the pattern with a pencil and started brushing. Still need to do some more weathering, high lights and details.

Also added some hay to sniper teams base.. Still have to make few details maybe, add sand and then I can start painting these guys.

Company command squad part V

If you count the sniper in, then its done! But probably I will still do few special weapons to be used in this squad if needed. Had fun painting the commander and it turned out pretty ok. Not sure about the dark trench coat though but on the other hand couldn't really come up with any other better colors. Wanted to make coat look old and worn.

 

Company commander Maj Keller
 

Company command squad part IV

So almost there.. 3/5 done. Have had some problems with my vallejo paints but managed to get them somehow work. Propably going to need to buy a new set of paints.. Some of the bottles seem to have pretty major issues. :D

Company Executive Officer Cpt. Coleman.

 

Lt. Lester. Responsible for communications and gathering reconnaissance information.

 

 Lt. "The Beard" Haddock. One of the most respected officers and for reason. Has gone trough numerous battles and knows enemy tactics and behavior better than anyone.

Sniper team progress

Slowly advancing.. Added few plants, some ground, shovel and deck of cards. Here are few CLOSE ups. Cant wait to start painting this. Been also thinking a lot of fluff lately and have some pretty neat ideas in my mind and hopefully I manage to write even some of it down and share it with you.

Sniper team

Started working on this sniper team few days ago. Quite happy how I got all the parts work together. Still have some plans for some details. Going to propably add few playing gards on ammo box, another beer can somewhere, shovel etc. Hope you like it.

 

Here is also few wip shots of the rifle itself. Forgot to post it here so there we go! 

Sentinel and sniper progress

Hi folks.

Managed to grab my brushes again and start painting. Also got something actually done! Sentinel is ready and sniper almost done. Hope you like them!

Salamander scouting vehicle conversion wip + other stuff

Made little progress during this weekend. Salamander build I started some time ago is now almost finished and also finished my sixth scratchbuilt Chimera. I think I need to paint some tanks soon.  :D Also worked on objective markers, sniper model and sentinels base.

Company command squad part III

Started working on the ghillie. Not quite done with it, but I am quite happy how it looks so far as it is first ghillie I've made. Still going to do few more details on hands and at least head needs still more work. I am very happy how the legs look after I modified them. That is why I wanted to only make half ghillie. Maybe better so model will still have some original detailing left rather than being a one big turd of greenstuff. :D

Also started the landscape on the base. It also needs little bit more work as now there is no space for bipod and it also needs more details. Just wanted to see how to pose works.

 

Also almost finished another command squad member. Still needs some sanding here and there but almost done.
