And by productive, I mean I painted my pants off. I am sure y'all are tired of the mini-talk, but I must say, I finished my banshee squad of 10, including the exarch. Those are some sexy bitches right there. I have one banshee left, but it isn't necessary. All it gives me is an 11th if i want 2 banshee squads or a swap if I do not want to pay for the exarch (being as the squad cap is 10).
I also primed and painted 1 of the 5 shining spears. I cranked it out, but it didn't truly excite me. Ultramarine blue and mythril silver theme. I am going to put silver on future jetbike canopies. This one is too blue.
And finally, I did a conversion I had been waiting to do: a jetbike mounted farseer. I used a high elf lord of some sort for Warhammer to make a farseer. More went into this of course. The Elf bit was a torso with head and two arms: one holding a spear and the other a sword. I cut the sword hand off at the wrist the cut that arm off at the should, right along a fancy armor shoulder pad thingy. I then took the handless arm and pinned it in place so that a hand could be attached and would be at the right angle to grip the steering handle. Jetbike was the other old school harlequin bike i had. I also used the Harlequin Rider's legs and pinned them to the torso. I cut the hand from a plastic jetbike pilot's arm so that i had a gripping hand. I also fashion a cape for the farseer out of blue/white putty. Not as stiff as I would like, but I had no brown stuff or other putties. Suggestions for the future?
I will get pictures up soon, but my multimedia reader is on the fritz at the moment.
