Astral Sons part 6

Really like how this model went together

Few more bits and then some dead stuff on the base and on to something bigger still

Astral Sons pt 5

Completed while precipitating in a great goggle hobby hangout with the guys and fellow listeners from the adeptus terra podcast

Moved onto a slightly larger model now 

Was a bit of a pain to put together but ended up ok, it's really good you get both little pieces so you can make each of the main gun

Scenery Workshop Part 7

Some really good progress on the containers 
Completed while precipitating in a great goggle hobby hangout with the guys and fellow listeners from the adeptus terra podcast


I've decided that now I have one good one I can batch out the other 5 in one go, doing all the same faces at the same time

Scenery Workshop Part 6 


Really love how there containers have come out, nice bit of shade and a bit of runefang steel to give the scrapes a bit of colour to them and that's one wholey done and another on the way
So about 4 1/2 to go

Astral Sons pt4

And now the big guns come out

Lovely model to put together if you don't include the little pistons on the legs that are a pain if you don't read through the instruction book first or watch the Warhammer tv video
Few little bits to finish and then will under coat both the dreadnought and repulsor later tomorrow, when the weathers more drier

Astral Sons pt3

So from a single guy test model to now jumping right in with the biggest new model

Went with not glueing to fully together so I can spray the main part of it white and the under side anti grav plates black to give them more of a metallic look


Gone with the lascannons and lastalon load out as it's going to be my main source of anti tank weapon at the moment as I'm light on landraiders

Astral Sons pt1-  Birth of a primaris chapter 



Managed to get hold of the good half of the dark imperium box set and thought it's time for a change from painting white scars
So here is the birth of the Astral Sons
Long way to go but I'm ready for the journey
I've learnt a lot painting wise of the last year and hope to put it to some good use

Scenery Workshop Part 2

Back from work and back with a little bit of hobby time
This evening it's the armoured containers set

Watching table tops tactics one of the best youtubes channels I believe and making a good start on the GW plastic containers set, wonder how many of these they have actually sold
