So about a month ago, my good friend Magilla Gurilla came to me, looking for prizes for his charity 40k and Warmachine event. He was looking for something like a Dreadnought or some vouchers, but anything would do. Jump back to March, as the shop I manage was getting rid of our Warmachine stock, as it just didn't take off around here. Everything was 50% off, so I had to pick up some paints and a Battlegroup. I saw Cygnar, loved the look, picked them up, built them, then packed them away. I decided I'd rather see the group do something charitable than collect dust, so I set to work!
I opted for a simple-yet-effective scheme to allow someone to add to the group easily, yet still making these pieces stand out.
Really happy with the vent glow; its P3's Arcane Blue layered up to white.
Really happy with Stryker, but getting photos of his face is driving me nuts! I layered him up to Pallid Wych Flesh, so getting that color to photograph right has been a nightmare.
The Power Sword effect turned out perfectly!
The Lancer; I'm really happy with the checkers on the shield, and the glow effect turned out nicely on his shoulders.
The Charger; probably my least favorite Warjack, just not a lot of area for customization on him.
Big Bada Boom!
And the Ironclad! This guy was fun, pretty intimidating-looking model, but lots of space for weathering and freehand.
The Cygnar emblem on his top part is all freehanded; really adds some personality and effect to the model.
Stryker and his bodyguard of Jacks holding the Smells Like Watchtower from those crazy Menoth jerks!
So glad to be done with these, and I'll be even happier to see what they raise for charity. Speaking of charity, Extra Life 2013 is only a week out, so if you haven't supported the cause, swing on over to the page HERE and show your support! Anything is appreciated!
Alrighty, I'll be out of the studio this coming up week, visiting my girlfriend for Halloween, but expect tons of pictures of Extra Life the following Saturday/Sunday, and I'll be working hard on terrain and some IG stuff the week after! Stay tuned guys!
