I did some weathering with mud, sooth, black oil and chipping.
I think I’ll consider them done and will take final reveal pics asap.

Bretonnians – part 4
My questing knights arrived today from GW. Sadly in a standard no descript box.
I opened it and cut lose the parts. The horses and bases are plastic and the knights are white metall, as can be seen in the pic.
No instructions what so ever! Not many parts so not so very hard I guess. I think I need to pin the arm on the knight in the middle.
One strange thing is that the army builder says 5 and there don’t seem to be any option to lower it. That means I should need 2 more, and I’m not sure I want another box of these!
Bretonnians – part 3
I worked a bit with the Baron and here he’s almost done.
It wasn’t entirely straightforward assembling him and the pegasus.
Here’s a pic of the entire army.
I either had to glue the baron in the saddle or keep the backrest off while painting, and I choose the latter.
The reins wasn’t easy to get right, and I’m not sure I did, but this will do.
Spartan assault tanks – part 3
I painted the guns with black metal. Then the tracks got a thin layer of rust, some orange rust, and later I dry brushed with steel.
Details in red was painted on the figures, which was a bit of a strain.
I’ll paint some more small details, then I’ll check if I missed something, before putting on a clear cote. Then decals and weathering is left to do.

After masking for the red pattern in the front, they looked like small packages! 🙂
Time for some red paint.
Then off with the tape!
After some minor touching up, I started paitning the tracks.
They are small, so a bit hard to hold while painting the details. More detail painting later.
Spartan assault tanks – Legiones Astartes – Games Workshop
I bought this box together with a few other Legions Imperialis boxes. After doing my 2nd Thunderhawk build, I decided to do a few more troops/units in White Scars’s paint scheme.
I removed and cleaned up the parts for all four tanks.
As with many of GW’s newer kits, they are very easy to build, and everything goes together very smoothly, with barely no visible seams at all.
There was options for 2 different side guns and 2 main guns, as well a few otions for the command turret. I choose to have one commander and 3 gunners.
Then it was time for some primer and later some paint. Using more or less the same colours I used on the Thunderhawk.
I haven’t decided how I will paint the red pattern on these vehicles yet. I’ll think about it a while.
Thunderbolt build #2 – part 6
As I now got decals for the first ship, I showing them here too.
Then a pic of both ships.
I did some weathering with Tamiyas panel line wash, Agrax earthshade, silver and diluted pale sand.
I’ll consider both builds done and will post final reveal pics as soon as possible.
Thunderhawk Gunship – part 5
Even this one got decals in my little decal session.
I just need to sort one mor small decal on each side, but thought it was best to let the ones I had done dry properly first. Then this one is done!
Thunderhawk Gunship build #2 – part 3
It took a while for me to sit down and put don decals on this one, but now it’s done!
Next I’ll clear cote it and then start weathering. So not much left now!
Thunderhawk Gunship build #2 – part 2
I masked and painted red chevron markings, that is common for White scars.
Part of the engine nacelles was painted red and then the engines, guns and some other details was painted with black metal.
Then gold was painted on some details.
The windows was painted.
Next I’ll clear cote it and add markings.
