Battle Report - 2000 pt - CSM vs. SM - Exploding Objective!

Now, this was a fun game. Each building was an objective. Each building was also has Armor 12 all around. One building in the middle was Armor 14 all around, and the other one was Armor 10. The Armor 14 building was a bunker, and provided a 3+ cover save to people inside. The Armor 10 building was a reactor, and could be blown up with a 5+ result on the dice. All buildings could be destroyed by a 5+ roll, 3-4 results had the models not shoot. Results of 1 or 2 did nothing to the building. Buildings that were destroyed forced units inside to leave, and made the building impassable terrain, as well as making it block line of sight through it.

Deployment was Dawn of War, but we didn't use the night fighting rules. The battle was played at 2000 points, and it was a LOT of FUN! Being able to shoot at buildings made for some interesting tactics.

Watch and find out!

Speed Painting Tau - Stealth Suit Urban Style

So this is what I've been working on the past few days.  Painting plus video rendering.

Inspired by the Space Wolves release, I decided to try out an urban Tau theme. My goal with the Sniper suit was to merge the space wolf base color and combine it with a dirty, urban theme. The model here is supposed to look as if he fits with the base, hence the reason they are the same basic color. I also wanted a muted theme.

Urban environments in the 40k world, I imagine, are rather dirty, so I wanted to give this Sniper suit the appearance of having been walking through ruins, but still give a very Tau-clean look to it. At the same time, I was hoping the highlight color (the white) was still a muted white, so it would stand out, but not look out of place.

Finally, the gun itself is my take on the weapon. I imagine that the barrel of the weapon spins rather fast when firing, so I figure the metal is worn in a circular pattern. That's the reason for the attempt the blending and highlighting like I did. I'm actually rather proud of it, because when it's lit with my desk lamps, it looks natural.

Finally, this was yet another attempt at blending, which I really want to keep practicing.  I'm very proud with the blending jobs I did here.  Both the helmet and the gun turned out how I wanted.  I still have a long way to go before I'm comfortable with blending, but overall, I think I'm on the right track.

Just wanted to show you guys what I am working on at the moment. My current projects that aren't terrain related.

Planetstrike Weapons Tank Mounted

Maybe a bit obvious to some people, but I just figured this out yesterday, and thought I'd share it. It opens up the options for what you can do *easily* with bits and pieces you have. It also means you have more things you can do with your bits that you might have lying around.

Excellent Wet Blending Tutorial

LIQUITEX! Excellent. All my paint additives are Liquitex. I think I have everything they make on my desk. But I'll give you a run down of what I have and uses.

Matte Medium - Use in all my paint mixes 1:1:1 water/medium/paint. Helps flow and keeps the pigment from separating longer than just using water.

Flow Aid - Use when I layer blend. Drying retarder and helps to get great coverage with heavy dilution.

Slow Dry - Use when wet blending. 1:1:1:1 water/medium/color/slow dry is how I mix it. Drying retarder of coarse.

Glazing Medium - Makes awesome glaze mixes. Dries fast for fast layering. Formulated to cover well and level to the surface. Glaze vs Wash = Glaze made to evenly cover and Wash made to pool in recesses.
