I wanted this model for quite a long time, but I’ve never had an opportunity to get it before.
But, finally I got it.
It’s Warhammer monster, from Citadel’s finecast line.
The cast itself isn’t that great quality, but the sculpt itself is awesome work. On pics below, you can see what kind of issues this model has. The next update is going to contain first painting WIP pictures.

Oh my… This blog is lacking of updates!

I knew something like this will happen sooner or later. Look at this! Only one post in August!
I simply forgotten to make any update.

Recently, with my Boyfriend we’re working on my Warcraft guild’s website and it’s almost finished.

Urd is waiting for Tamiya putty, meanwhile I started to sand Deedlit. While most of parts looks pretty good, her cape takes a lot of effort.

Anyway, when I’ll recieve my order with putty and paints I ordered, I’ll start to work on Hasegawa’s Messerschmitt Bf109E. My father bought it and he can’t work on it [He needs better glasses] and I’m already having buyer for it.
This reminds me, I need to take photos of other WWII related models/dioramas I made before.

Soon, I’ll get another GK, it’s already shipped. There’re more GKs I’d love to build someday, but I won’t buy any new untill I’ll finish at least one of those I’m hawing WIP right now.
But, in reality, it may take more time before I’ll get any new kit, because probably we’re going to change our camera.

BTW, in my last entry I told You about Citadel’s Tool Kit. I had to cancel order in one shop [in magical way, they ran out of stock RIGHT AFTER I ordered mine] and got it in another, that’s why I lost few weeks of work. But it was worth it, works perfect and I have place to keep some of my modeling stuff at last.

Take Care!

Because of work and real-life stuff I couldn’t focus on my kits.

But! I’m happy, because I’m waiting for Citadel Tool Kit, which is gift from my family (mainly because my father, as an old modeler, likes it as well) and they managed to find it in one of Polish internet shops for price of ~70$ and with free shipping. Yay!

Also, I got about 1 kilogram of modeling clay, so I’m having materials for my project’s base. Obviously it isn’t polymer clay (it’s way too expensive for me, yet), but I’m pretty sure it’s going to work well.

Besides that, I’ll have to buy some supplies, before I’ll start to paint. I think I’m going to get Mr. White Base, to apply it right before painting, but I need to check up if local store have it. Still, I’m not sure, if I’m going to handbrush or airbrush my kits and… Which brand’s paints should I use :(? I’m thinking about Mr. Color, about Pactra, or Citadel paints. As for now I’m pretty sure I’m not going to use emanel, like Humbrol’s (though I used them before), I prefer to get some acrylics. And here’s another question – which sealers should I use?

Any suggestions are welcome.

 

So many questions, so little time, so little money, damn it.

Anyway, I hope I’ll be able to make any update soon 🙂

 

Take Care!
