More orks! Footsloggers!

Some more Orks.

This guy is part of a mob 30 strong.
We will call this a before picture.
Deff Koptas!
Ard' Boys! the last 3 for the mob..For now. 
This puts the mob at 20 Strong!




1 Gal. Bag of footslogers.
it looks like a little more then 3 full mobs of boys in there.
Most of them look like this.
                                     
                                                                            And this

And this


This is one of the few Shoota boys left to touch up. The skin is the main focus.
Nicely layered skin makes the orks look very good on the table.


This one is close enough to my stopping point for a while.
I find not stressing over every little detail helps get more done and keep them presentable.
On this one I retouched the reds and added a lighter layer of green on hos skin as well as painted or repainted his teef and lips. 
Later I plan to spend more time on all of the orks.

This rocket boy is part of my tank busta mob.

I found a few of these old metal Mek boys. 


This shoota boy is a little sick in the head. He is one of the very few ork boys in the hoard to have a top knot, or any "hair" at all for that matter. Such a criminal. 

More Tank bustas

And lastly the table full of green skins!


Thanks for looking!

Necron Air! More Cron wip! (Pits week 3)

This week started last Saturday. And I am glad it did.Progress had so far been very good the warmer weather has helped a lot and this train is running right on time!
 The primer went on funny and a little wet. Not a usual thing but it dried just fine and with no issues.
I think the temperature change had an effect on the air in the tank. I may need a moisture trap. But color was applied on Monday with no issues at all.
With out further a do-doo  Some pictures to chew on.




After some color correction their is a slight difference






And now the thrusters? are black
I don't know what they are really called. 


These will be packed up now and set away until washes. 
I still have some parts and pieces to prim and paint, death rays and all that sort of thing.
With the weather getting colder again the primer will dry slower and I don't expect to be done this week. 
I will shut down on Friday to clean the shop again and pull the next batch of miniatures out for painting. 
And I will be starting all over again on Monday.
I am very glad to be painting again.
I have some big stuff to paint coming up! I am excited.
Thanks for looking! More to come!

Second week in the pitts! More Necron Lovage

Short week this week. the temperatures are too cold for much painting. But we take what we get.
Honestly the shop it to cold for the paint to dry properly..er in the usual timely manner.
Not to worry though, I have been soldiering on.

                                                                           Spyders!







And some Ark parts as well.

                                     
                                          Lots still to do! Thanks for looking!

First week back in the slave pits! or more Necron painting in progress!

Not too much to say here except...
Is it really Friday?! wow that was fast!
I'm on the fence as far as how much "work" have I gotten done or not but the progress has been constant and very much what I had in mind.



You can see that by the third picture I am up to my third color.
I am sorry to say these may not look exactly like the other, sold in July.
But each vehicle in its group will look like the next one from here on out. 
This sort of thin happens because at the time I never imagined painting these again and didn't take any notes for myself.
Oh well . we do what we can. Which includes as best we can.
I still have miles to go before the end!
                                                            Thank you for looking!
