Wow.... just wow.

(message was too short so system wouldn't allow me to post. So here's another WOW.)

Few snippets. Whipped through the scenery that came with the base set and both campaigns, literally half hour with the airbrush, 4 colours and some old spnge and brown paint! I can now officially say I am all up to date! Shame the revised core set wasn't released this weekend over here in the UK....still in a defo Dust painting mood....ahh well maybe next week :)

To comfort myself I bagged the two kits from Ebay, figured the Gunther and the other kit (once Dusted over with a little WWII gear) would make good objectives for future games, building them will give me something to do on the long cold nights in the Lake District when I go on my hols soon too!

 your stuff looks briljant!

After seeing this I really have to buy a airbrush! ... have to!!

 Yeah, what brand/kind of airbrush do you use? Never really thought about using one, but it seems great for speed painting and blending.

Well the only one I have used is the Iwata HP-BH so that's really the only one I can recommend, never failed me (touch wood) easy to use and being gravity fed a pleasure to use and clean. Might not be the cheapest or the most expensive but it's worth it's weight in gold as far as I am concerned!

It's defo worth splashing out on a large compressor however, I have a Tiger 8/45 I bought a few years back now, huge beast size of a small island but it means no annoying constant motor sound and a nice clean air supply

Just such a great looking force all around!  Amazing looking walkers. I would like to see you make some matching terrain to play on, bet you could whip out an awesome urban warfare looking setting with your mad airbrush skills!  Been thinking about getting an airbrush myself, just need to convince my wife it has "real world" uses as well as hobby:)

She could possible airbrush her nails ;)

Nice models as always Bulldog and very fast too.

hols out of the way!  Back into the grind decided to sneak in a few more Dust models before I start on the next 40k commission models so here they are, this post represents the contents of the revised core edition of Dust

Trying to keep the colours faithful to the card art as our little group are casual players and only get a few hours a week, would rather not spend most of that time trying to figure out what squad is where!
 

Don't really play Dust Tactics.  Just decided to pop by since I do paint 40k minis, albeit my skills are nowhere near yours .  I really like the job you did with the "storm troopers" (the ones with the gas mask).  Apologies for just calling them "storm troopers" cos I don't really know them by name.  Bulldoguk, that is really well done!

Airbrush wise, I'd recommend Badger although its my personal preference.  Many airbrushes have internal mixing capability but its the first brand I've ever come across and used.  My local hobby store also sells Herpa, also with a compressor.

 Really  clean paint job, the highlighting and the weathering is great.

Bagged a 1/48 scale landing craft from a well known auction site for 15 quid! As shown by the first bunch of pics kit needs a little modding to take the bases of the walkers (without bases they fit fine but who doesn't glue their figures to the base?) just a simple matter of cutting away a little of the decking on the side, glueing the inner walls to the actual hull thus making the floor space slightly wider. The gaps were blanked out with some spare plasticard I had knocking about (the red stuff on the pics). Couple of tiny magnets added to the ramp allows it to be used in the up or down position, Jobs a good  'un!

May well pick a couple more up so I can stage an assault landing when Warfare is released :)

Great job!  100% better then my attempt at building that model.

Very saving Pvt Ryan! Good job!

Knocked another landing craft up for Dust. The observant among you may notice the cabin/deck area is the other way round on this one. Yes, even a seasoned modeller like myself can make mistakes and I put the deck on back to front on the first model LOL, I must have been half asleep, didn't even notice until I assembled this one!
I think maybe one more, 3 seems a nice round number  :D

Your first LC handles "rear defense" and AA, and the second handles "assault and support".  =)
