It's time for another update and this time I hope to get a few jaw drops.

Yesturday night I got a bunch of marauder bitz for my chaos dwarfs and set about adding those bitz to them.

I think they're coming along nicely. Now I just need to get some more chaos space marine helmets and shoulder pads plus a few marauder shoulder pads and they're just about good to go. Big Grin

I also got some more work done on my Death Rocket.


I'm so happy with it thuse far, infact I don't think I'm allowed to put up as many smilles to show how happy I am with how it's turning out so far. Big Grin  I plan to add some more to it like backing at the back end of the barrel, but other than that I have no idea what else to add. Any suggestions on this one.

And last I've got a bit more work done on the test hobgoblin.

All I need to do with him is add length to his cloaks?  , make his hat, and add some bitz of armour and he's done.

Well thats all for now. Questions, comments, and critasizem?
@Hashut's Blessing : Well thx for the comments on the warriors. The rockets ex-celtic symbols will either be daemonic energy or pounded bronze. I was actually thinking of adding at the end of the barrel a kind of daemon head wear the rocket would come shooting out of. The hobgoblin will actually have it's robe extended. I just hope I don't run out of GS before it's finished.

@Kera foehunter: Thx, but they don't have shoes, they have.......I actually don't now what youd call them.

Well I have more stuff to show off.

First up is my CDBSB wich now has a head.

I like the head but might give it another try to make it look better. But not bad for a first attempt.

Next up are some CD warriors i've been painting though I shouldn't be.
First four(the one with the sword is the unit champ and their's the units musician that really isn't hard to pick out).


And another four.


They may not look so great now but in time they'll look great, just trust me on that Wink .

So what do you guys think?
@ Hashut's Blessing: Thx, I rather like the way the CDBSB looks, but their are things that need to be worked on definetly. But as to the warriors take a look lower and see what you think now.

Well I got some more to show off.

First is 5 CD warriors that have been fully painted.


I painted these guys very quickly becouse the first 200 points for TOFP is due and I thought i'd miss it if I didn't get to work on them a.s.a.p. Very happy with them. I love how well the lava bases turned out. Now I just need to get more concerted and I should be OK for almost the rest of TOFP unyil I get to the Hobgoblins and CD lord on great taurus.

Now the next two things i'll be showing of are the metal and fire wizards.
Metal wizard is now finished.


All I did to finish him is paint his horns wich are black with highlights leading up to codex grey wich I also did and will be doing for my other CD.
I have also the sculpting on my fire wizard.


I'm very happy with him. I'm even more than happy with how the flames came out becouse they were my second, third, and fourth times sculpting flames. I'll be saving this guy for next months painting so I don't have to paint as many chaos dwarfs and focous more on sculpting and playing the game "Too Human" when it comes out.

Thats all for now as I have more stuff to work on and lots of drawing to do. Until then i'm open to all comments, suggestions, critaziem that everybody can dish out.
Um actually i'm not finished with him. I haven't painted the beard at alland the wrist bandeges are desert yellow and not finished like the rest of him. I'll be finishing him up in the next two weeks or so as i'm curently working on some stuff for my empire and some reaper miniatures at the moment.
No worries man, we all make mustakes sometimes. I have more than my share when playing some times.
Thx jester.

Any it's been to long sence I updated this log so here we go.

It's the beganning of August and the first 200 points of miniatures for TOFP. Thankfully I have finished my one last warrior to make that 200 point mark(well technicly 201 but who really cares).
Whole unit of 6 chaos warriors.

And the army shot(I love these).

Next stuff i'll be painting is the fire sorcerer and 4 warriors with great weapons.
Thx for the kind words Willmark. One little thing. Thats not gold, it's bronze.
@al-hashut: Thx, the marine helmet was inspired by one of the other members of this forum.

@Kera foehunter: Thx, but like I told Willmark it's bronze.
@Hashut's Blessing: Thx. they kinda do look a little menacing for just 7 guys. I hope at the end of this month hat the five i'm adding will make it even look more menacing.

@Kera foehunter: Very true.
@Hashut's Blessing: No you will not and this isn't a warband this is the start of my chaos dwarf army(it's small I know but just give it two or three months and you'll see).

@wallcer: That would be true except for the fact i've never played Mordheim ever.

Any way here's a special birthday post.
I've started another sorcerer and four warriors with great weapons.




I think they're of to a great start if I do say so myself. One thing you'll notice is that i've done the lava bases differently and would like feed back on how you guys think they look.
@Kera foehunter: Thx. I'm not keeping him like that but it would make a nice cajan CD now that you mention it.

@Captain Crayon: Thx, just wait until you see the rest  of them.

@wallacer: Thx, the metallics aren't done yet but it's nice to now they look good.

@Hrothgar Goldgreed: Thx for the tip. Look bellow.

@Hashut's Blessing: Thx as always.

Anyway it's time for an update.

More work has been done on the sorcerer and warriors.
Sorcerer


Took Hrothgar's advice on the have started working on making the flames more realistic and I think I still have a little ways to go.
Warriors with great weapons


All I have left to do is all of the metal areas and the brown leathers and these guys are done.

Here are some more warriors with great weapons that I've been working on.


One as you can see is done while the other four need some GS work.

Anyway thats all for now. I'll be back with more updates.
No. They're gonna have GS masks. I'm hopping to do a little better job then I have in the past when sculpting these ones.
Good news everybody i've finished the CD warriors.



And i've redone the bases on my other CD.


Now all I have to do is finish the fire sorcerer.


I'm having trouble with the flames. I'm not sure how to make them more realistic. Any ideas?
Relax Hrothgar. All is well now.

Finally redid the flames and here's the result.


I think they look more realistic now and that makes me very happy Big Grin . Now here's the CD army as stands.

Now that their done it's time to finish up my woc, termie, and nob.

Now here's a lot of CD that i've finished GS-ing.
Warrior's with sheilds standard.


GW warriors unit champ. and standard.


3 Warriors with sheilds(can't remember if I've shown these already).


and a single warrior with GW.



Now for some W.I.P. pics.
2 warriors with sheilds

and 3 warriors with GW


Now for something big. Over the next few weeks I'll working on giving my great taurus wings based on this design someone showed me.

I'm not to sure were to begin but i'll figure something out.
@Xander: Thx for the comments. It's nice to know that the creater of Chaos-dwarfs.com likes my work.

@Ghrask Dragh: Just wait to the the whole unit of 20 when it's done.

@Kera foehunter: I like how the faces look to. Granted I was trying to make the more smooth but I think they turned well all the same.

@Hrothgar Goldgreed: Thx.

I'm back with another update.

I've been rather busy with GSing my Chaos Dwarfs and here are the results.
Blunderbuss's


Warrior with sheild


Warriors with GW


I'd have more but I ran out of GS Angry .
But while i'm on the subject of chaos dwarfs here's wip pic. of my Death Rocket.

I'm very happy with it so far but I have a few problems. First is that I think the end of the shaft should have something but i'm not sure what. Second I'm not shure what I should add the the top of the pole for the crewman on the left. Any help here is very appereciated.

Thats all for now foks. I'll be back with another update as soon as I get more GS and pip pics of my BSB and 6 warriors.
@furrie: Thx man. I actually think the rocket is just the right size. Thought about the firing device but could think of what would work.

@Kera foehunter: Thx. But to be honest i'm not sure what your asking.

@dragon-magister: Thx. Look bellow and see what you think.

@two_heads_talking: I really am not sure what how that actually would work in real life.

It's that time again.

Here are PIP shots of what i'm working on this month.
BSB

And 6 warriors with full command.

As you can all see i'm of to a very nice start with them.

I'll have more pics soon I hope.
Dark Flesh. Sorry, I thought you were asking what sand I use to base them.
@dragon-magister: Well thats interesting, but thats not what inspired me to do the masks.

@Xander: Thx. But don't get me started on mold lines.

Here's an update on the warriors and BSB.
BSB


Gonna add the CD rune to the circle in the middle of the star and on his cloack. Also have some other details the need to be done.

Warriors

Standard is either gonna be a volcanno or a red bull. Not sure yet.

Will be back with more.
@Kera foehunter: Thx for the feed back.

@grunts: Thx, might try that with my other banner I have yet to paint.

Anyway I'm back to report that i've finished my chaos dwarfs for this month.
BSB


Warriors

And army shot

I'm really happy with these guys so far. I'm definetly gonna do more with the BSB banner but i'm not sure what yet.

Anyway thats all for now.
Thx, and if you must know I got the idea from Lord of the rings(Mt. Doom).
