Mad Dok

Kustim-Ork — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 00:04:59 +0000

Started work on my Mad Dok Grotsnik to accompany my Mega Nobs. I’m still deciding on the pose but one thing I do know, he will have a massive syringe!

One Massive Hole!

I understand how sinkholes work, I’ve read the wiki articles but come on this is either a disintegration ray from mars or a turbo laser from an Imperial Battle Cruiser! There is a conspiracy here!

Lord Rockbottom and Dirty Meg

Kustim-Ork — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 04:22:07 +0000

Back to what I’ve gotten done lately! Warmachine! I’ve been having a blast playing since the new edition and its helped me get a lot of models done. Presenting, Lord Rockbottom.

I have to say, Mark II is way smoother, easier to play and a heck of a lot more fun. I admit I whined and complained about all the stuff they took away from certain figures, (still a few things bug me) but now I see it was for the best. The new ability icons make game play a breeze too. To fix my Warjacks, Dirty Meg!

Honoured Imperium Orkified!

The moment I saw the Space marine statue finally solicited I knew that it had a future in my scenery collection. It was a bit difficult to decide where to stop with the conversion to an Ork. I wanted it completely recognizable as a Marine but obviously modified by some fantaic Grots. I dug into the bitz box and came out with this. Let me know what you think. Wuaagh!

New Look

Here is the new blog-side look to spaceork.com. Soon the 2 will incorporate into one and the same, with all the pictures included into the new look. My goal is to make the main site less of the hindrance that it is now to me which causes me to not post here. I have a shit ton of stuff on the go at the moment. I’ve gotten back into the painting swing, completing 2 solo warmachine models which I think are the 2 best models I’ve ever painted. I can honestly say that its the brush picking up the slack. I splurged on a Winsor and Newton Series 7 #0 kolinsky sable brush and its like night and day. Like one day someone took away my bent butter knife and gave me a sonic screwdriver! A word of advice though when buying one. Always buy in person and not over the internet. Each brush is hand made and so some will be slightly more perfect than others. I could go on and on about my new brush forever so I’ll stop myself now. (More latter). On another happy note, I have a big forgeworld order on the way! Drool!

Possessed

Finally painted up some possessed I built ages ago. They use some Tyranid, Chaos spawn, and Mage Knight bits. See those Mage Kight figures do come in handy!

Ninja Turtle

Kustim-Ork — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 02:08:15 +0000

Here’s what I’ve been working on the last week. Sculpted over an armature, brown stuff and brass and 2 sewing needles for the base of the weapons which will be a pair of sai like Raphael’s.

I did it for a D&D character that was just started. Yes he is a ninja, and a teenager…

The Protectorate of Menoth Invade

Kustim-Ork — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 15:11:55 +0000

Well here it is, another game I play. Warmachine. It’s actually a nice game to play if you have a 40k addiction. It’s just different enough that when your a little 40k’ed out you can play a few games of Warmachine. I play the Protectorate of Menoth, the crazy church fanatics who prefer to just burn all who oppose them. It’s a nice opposite to my Chaos and Orks.

Halt, is that furnace energy efficient?

The champions of Disease

Kustim-Ork — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 05:39:19 +0000

Finally I can post lots of new pictures for your viewing pleasure! First up, something I picked up at last summers Games Day Canada in Toronto, The Nurgle Blight Drone.

As expensive as they are, Forgeworld models practically build and paint themselves! They are in the end worth every penny in my opinion.

You may notice a lot of my bases have victims, and just to snub the new army and because of the insignia on the power fist I had to have my victim a space wolf! Sorry guys!…. No I’m not. Take that you baby blue and gray wearing pretty boys in your fur.

I also have finally finished a Demon Prince. I tried to go with something more like fly wings. They came out pretty well and are removable with magnets if I don’t wish to pay the points. I always do however. I’ll get some more close ups of this one in the Nurgle gallery whenever I get that all up and finished. The blood spatter effect came out particularly well on this one!

That’s all for tonight. Next post I’ll put up my other dirty secret… that other non GW game I play! I bring so much shame….

Obliterators Painted.. Well Mostly

Kustim-Ork — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 22:28:48 +0000

They are almost finished. Just have to do some more washes and de-gloss a few areas and do their bases. I have to say I love the new GW washes a lot! My only gripe is that some are glossy and some aren’t. Now that isn’t necessarily a bad thing however, but I wish it said on the label which ones were glossy.
Edit: Ok so really the problem is I don’t shake them enough. Ogryn flesh specifically gets very shiny!
