Lets play catch-up.

It has been almost a year since my last post, so I'm going to keep this short and dump as many pictures as I can into this single post. Many of the projects posted last July are still in the same state they were back then, which saddens me. I've had to put the 40k away due to time constraints and money as well. I probably won't buy much more from Games Workshop with all of the recent price hikes. I will however be buying more Battlefleet Gothic since the prices seem to not have hit them yet. I'd post pictures of the 30 or so FW marines that I have, but all I have are the IMG codes and not the HTML ones... Sorry... Without further ado:
Progress on André Cortola, Chapter Master of the Black Fist Space Marines-PIP. Disciplinary Officer Viktoria Skivlana PIP Working on a Star Wars Sundered Heart/Farstar. Flagship of my BFG fleet. The Glory, Shimano Class battleship Catalyst class battleship, currently unnamed. WIP of my Ammobunker June/July vehicle competition. For more pictures/updates please visit Ammobunker.org. I call it: Death of a Titan. :) The current state of my BFG fleet. And endless WIP. Washed out pictures, I'll get real ones sometime. Have a nice year.
Yours,

Assembly has started sir.

So my stuff came in right? So me being impatient...and not being able to wait for myself to buy the other parts, had to put SOMETHING together...knowing that I'll be using the main pieces, I glued/Greenstuffed it together. I need to make sure that this will never fall apart.


Had to clamp down on that piece with my Leatherman so it'd be perfect. Took me a while to bend it too, because this thing was pretty warped. (for my standards)

Spent about 20-30 minutes to get this thing to stay together.


I used putty to hold it together, and it wasn't strong enough X-P so it kept falling apart! Annoying as hell!

Updatio!

So my Emperor Battleship, and 10 Chaos Possesed marine bitz came in the mail today.
Its all in my bitz box now though...



The metal is kinda tarnished too...quite old..the box was OLDD...=-D

Uhm. Heres the plan. I was going to use 3 battleships. 2 of one design (Retribution or Emperor) and 1 of the other. (so 2 Emperors and 1 Retribution, or 2 Retributions and 1 Emperor), and 6-8 Cruisers (I've upped the count) seeing the size of this thing, I can assume the size of the Cruisers..
Heres the original design plan (saw something like it in Firebase Mag #1)


I'm also going to do a True Scale tutorial, because all the ones I've seen either suck, or never finish. Its not going to be a video tutorial, as that would take forever, but I won't post it until I finish the whole thing.
Guys like this.

Thats my Marneus Calgar count as, he has a magnetized left arm, so he can switch out to power sword..but you've seen him before. I'll be making a Command Squad, so I can cast them, and make squads!

Battlefleet Gothic and Council

So I've always wanted to make a HUGE Imperial Battlefleet Gothic..fleet.

This here

Be a couple of Eldar ships, painted up (WIP of course) by DirtyWaterPainting. With a scale shot of a 40k Space Marine.

Judging by the size of the comparison, I'd say that the ship on the right, would be about 5 or 6 inches long. PERFECT size for conversions =-D
I'm going for some Imperial Ships, to make a LARGE (maybe 10 inches or so..) SuperShip. =-D I don't exactly know what I'll be doing off the top of my head..but I have a pretty good idea.
-------------
Another one of my ideas that I recently cooked up..was a council of builders. Tau, Space Marine, Imperial Guard, Orks, Eldar, Necron, Tyranid.
In this crappy picture I just drew, its hard to see (with or without blogger's small pictures) I posted it slightly larger so you can click on it to see better.


It has, from bottom right to around the table...
Necron Scarab (I meant Tomb Spyder) with Nano Scarabs. Techmarine with servitors. Techpriest Engineseer with...brainstorming (I don't know who follow them around). A Big Mek with Grots. A Tyranid Digestion Pool with a Tendril going to the sky, with Genestealer Infestation thingies. A Fio'El with some Drones. And a Bonesinger with...brainstorming (I don't know who follow them around either). On the table, are various drinks of the various races.

I'm thinking of doing a full table, and make it sort of like the Council on the Death Star..like in this scene Image. At the head of the council, I'll find some Asian Authority-like model, to represent me =-D Since this IS Shortsonfire79's Modeling Council.

Big Mek- "Me dinks we need more Orky kunversions"
(Precursor to whats next >=-D )
