FOE HAMMER

posted more details on the Silver dragon but so far this is the 90% done version. Hope to field it soon.

WOW thats awesome!

Damn that's nice! I say we declare Mike Paintmaster of Miami and put his picture on a wall of fame or something at one of the stores.

Hey thanks guys. I really like how this one turned out. My only regret is the flat black I used from michaels on the body plus I would have liked to find a way to let the dozer headlight flaps hang down but since i was using forgeworld bitz there I wanted to make them visible so I left them up. I plan on making a line breaker squadron at some point so when I do the next two I'll be able to do some different poses including a battle damaged version.

The Scythe of Barbarus could punch a hole in that. It looks great though.

I'd hit that

I would definatly like to get a game against the scythe.

I havent played 40k since july...Im dying to play. I have a huge Deathguard Army. As soon as I get free time Ill PM you...ahead of time of course.

Mike,
Very neat and detailed.
Well Done !

You'll have to give me some tips on Photography, cause the pics are also awesome.

Thanks for the comments on the pics. My wife always asks about what poeple say when I post them sicne she takes and edits them for me.

The model is doen though and I won't be taking any new ones because all I did was an ink wash, added a black templar icon lantern pole behind the top hatch turret with the storm bolter. and added the winch system. I don't plan on adding the shell I think just because why would I go into combat with a ST 10 shell swinging behind me???? Yeah not much practical thought but in on this one plus it keeps you from opening the top hatch so I think I'm going to have a space marine crewman for the vehicle either inside holding the shell or just on a base so i can use him in a squad like my last two land raider crewmen.

dude,
Tell your wife to write something up for me, cause I've been to cool mini or not and have followed directions, but I still can't seem to get things right

Rodger. I'll see what I can do on that. She has a cannon rebel cannon. It's for Semi professionals I'd suppose as much as the the thing costs. But this i do know is that I think she uses a 25mm lense or it's a 50 mm for the close ups and sets the flash I bought her for x-mas for the lighting... the flash was over 500 dollars by the way.... But other than that we take p[lain white paper and tape it together for the background and lay it out under the model and prop it up in the back so it gives a plain white background. then she simply touches up any blemishes and adjusts lighting through photoshop. Needless to say alot more effort than i would put in it but this is her hobby and she enjoys it.

Cool !!
I wish my wife would get involved like that !!

Well, it sounds like you have some heavy duty equipment there. I certainly don't have the flash, and i think that's been my biggest problem, lighting.

So I guess i'll have to try it with a few more lamps and see what comes out.

Bored... Needed to do something with the bullet for my vindicator.

Thats awesome! It looks like a futuristic warmachine crewmember!

Thanks. Wife didn't get the other side where I scrolled his name as VULCAn on one of the BT shoulder pauldrons. He has an old style Space marine Bolter in a biker leather harness for the assualt bike sprue. turned out pretty good I thought.
