UPDATED - What's on my Painting Table - Death Guard Chaos Cultists

UPDATE: - I've now added some more photos showing my progress in painting up this unit of Cultists.

I've taken a break from painting my Eldar to start on a new unit of Chaos Cultists to replace the ones I've currently got in my Chaos Space Marine army.  My current plan is to slowly, overtime make all of my chaos forces Death Guard (Replacing the red Corsairs which make up the bulk of my force).

Having recently watched Mad Max Fury Road (An awesome movie go see it!) I decided to take some inspiration from it when putting together my Cultist unit.  As such I've done a few small conversions to some of the miniatures to give them a more post apocalyptic feel.  I also decided to use the Nurgle Warhammer Chaos Lord miniature as my Cultist Champion, as let's face it he looks a bit like humongous from Mad Max 2 The Road Warrior.

I'll post some more pictures of the finished unit once they are done.

The first of my new cultists lead by The Humongous.

The Cultists will be painted in typical Death Guard colours.

I'm making progress! 

Most of the base coating has been done 

I'm also working on painting up this Death Guard Space Marine. 

What's on my Painting Table - Eldar Altach

Here's some photos of my finished Eldar Altach.   The photos didn't turn out too well but I think you can get a general idea of what he looks like.

The Altach has purple in his colour scheme to mark him out as a member of the ruling classes. 

I've also been working on the remaining two Dark Reapers.  One is my Exacrh who I converted from the Rogue Trader Exarch (As the war gear he was equipped with isn't legal in the current edition).  As you can see he's been given missile launcher from the vehicle sprues.  This is deliberate as part of the back story for this Exarch is that during a battle he used the missile launcher from a wrecked War Walker to hold off a hoard of rampaging Orks.  After the battle he deiced to keep the weapon and customise it to make it easy for him to carry into battle.

The Exarch has opposite colouring to the regular Dark Reapers.   

A better look at the two.

Once these two are done I'm probably going to work on my Guardian squad or my three new Jetbikes.

UPDATED - What's on my painting table - More Eldar!

Due to issue with my computer (Damn you Internet Explorer!) I've had real trouble trying to update my blog of late, however it looks like I may have finally manged to fixe the problem so here are some photos of some things that I've been working on over the past few week,  mainly Eldar miniatures as part of my 750 point 40K list.

A close up of the pilot of my Wave Serpent 

The Wave Serpent with canopy.  I used a green wash on the glass to make it stand out a bit and look like the pilot had activated night vision.

I added some scorching effects to the engines. 

A wide view of the finished vehicle complete with transfers.  I'm really happy with how it come out. 

Side view.  The Scatter Lasers are magnetically mounted to the turret so I can change my weapons options as I please.  

The eagle eyed of you may have noticed some Dire Avengers in the background of these photos.  these are now finished and as soon as my phone decides to play ball with my computer I will upload the pictures of the finished squad onto here.

PS: With the new Eldar Codex coming out last Saturday I managed to pick up a box of the new Skyrider Jetbikes (Which I'm currently assembling) and the new Altach miniature.  I'll post some photos soon.

UPDATE

As promised here are pictures of my finished Dire Avengers.

Also here's some pics of what I'm currently working on.

Currently have a few miniatures I'm working on, as well as a new Jetbike. 

I also managed to to get some more work done on my Altach.  

International Tabletop Day video

Well Exeter International Tabletop Day has been and gone and by all accounts it was a great success.  If you were at the event, or you missed out fear not.  We have a video of the day which Sam King produced and edited (and did a mighty fine job).

What's on my painting table - Easter bank holiday painting

This Easter I found some time to finish off a few painting project and start on a few new ones (as well as paint some doors in my house).

I found 3 Orc Blood Bowl players which I hadn't painted so decided to finish them off.  The Orc linesman on the left is the one I painted over the weekend, the one on the right is one on of the first Orcs I painted when I got back into the hobby.

Here's another photo of the two.

I also painted three of my four Dark Reapers ready for my 750 point 40K games. 

I used the new Martian technical paint to base these miniatures as I wants to represent the different world that my elder come from. 

My Dark Reapers colour scheme (red and black) echo the colours of my other Eldar forces. 

Two Orc Blitzers waiting for their bases to dry and a unit of Dire Avengers are my next projects to finish. 

Finally here's a photo of my 400 point Combat Patrol.  some of these miniatures (such as the Jetbikes) will be in my 750 Point army whilst the rest will be reintroduced into my larger forces.
