Love the models.

So much cool stuff in one Guard squad.... *faints*

Laney... seriously. We can't keep doing this... you are going to KILL me one of this days! You WiP is the stuff I dream of! All the details... bionic arm, kill counts, buzzing electricity, the camo (OHHH, SWEET BABY EMPEROR... THE CAMO!!!)

You are implanting a high standard for me. Remember last time you did that? I do... I HAD to do THIS! I guess that I need to finish my Eye Pokes now!

Amazing and inspirational work! Thanks for sharing!

Truly amazing....and what everyone else has said .
Very inspirational!

Cheers Guys,

The thing that keeps me creative is all the postiives (and constructive criticism or course) that I get from you lot!

I did notice that the lieutenant needs a few more highlights on the pics though!

Mordheimer - no more greenstuff butts from you. I want to stay the proud owner of the worlds only Mordheimer anatomically correct greenstuff gretchin butt! Other than that go wild!

I'll see what else I can rustle up over the next week for the Varangian Gamma Commando (I am playing losing a Governor assassination match against Way of the Warrior on Thursday - so I hope to have a couple more finished for then - this is following a very weird last stand game, in which I had five terminators and held off a tyranid horde for six or seven turns - none of us could work out how many it actually was!)

Anyways

Cheers Laney

You know... I have constructive criticism. Not on paint or modeling, but on this thread. It is PURE gold... you have LOTS of stuff that are amazing! I think because they are packed in one thread, most will get lost.

Do you mind if I split this? Then you can post an individual thread for each model (or small group of models). I do whatever you want... I'm a fan (and I do not mean a ventilator!), so I go through this post from time to time. It would not be any trouble.

Mordheimer - split away! Whatever you think is best. I've just been using this as a kind of painting/modelling blog .

It's nice to see the improvement I've made since joining this forum.

Cheers Laney

OK. I will get on it ASAP... when I take a break from The Calculator! Go ahead and start putting your new models in separate postings.

I would suggest making one post titled "Laney's Painting Blog" or something like that... there you could have a list of all the posts that belong to your Blog. This way, people can follow you.

Holy! I...... ARGHHHHHHH! (Grabs chest, face hits key bord)

VERY COOL STUFF! Standards are a specialty with moi,; so I tend to be a bit critical...yours turner out SUPER! I REALLY LOVE how you did the Power Sword on the Communications Guy. GREAT WORK!

Hey Laney,

great guard models, nice poses & they look really kitted out for a full tour of duty !

can i offer a tip on the paints? i noticed some of your surfaces have a slightly powdery look to them, you can resolve this by thinning them slightly with a little water which should give a smoother look.

Thanks for the feedback Patriarch. Yes, the skin in particular on these guys was not my finest hour. I could do with thinning my paints a little more, but I'm essentially lazy!
I don't think the flash or the close-ups help on my camera as the layers show up really clearly when they don't on the model proper. I have plans for a 3rd guard squad soon (possibly rogue trader led) when I can refine the painting a little - and maybe I should properly finish off the other squads I have in the mix.

Laney. you need to make me a squad and paint it up for me, thats all im saying.
