Update on the Ash Wastes board

Hi Gang,
happy to say I finished the last Hab building for my Ash Wastes board.
Decided to go for a destroyed one this time to mix everything up a bit.

All the Walls and bits can be removed and are partially magnetized for more options.

Unfortunately it was quite a pain to paint since my air brush kept clogging up like crazy due to the air dryers that are running 24/7 to get my office/hobby space usable again.
So not as smooth as I would like it to be, but still happy w...

Color guide - Genestealer Cults

Hi Gang,

due to getting frequent questions on how I painted my Necromunda Ash Waste Genestealer Cults, I decided to do a quick color guide for you guys.

Would you be interested in seeing some high resolution photos of the gang here?
Let me know :-)

Hope you like it!
Thanks a ton for you support!

Bad Zone Enforcer Gang - #3

Hi Gang,

happy to present to you the first (almost) finished Ash Waste Enforcer.
I think I like the direction this is going. What do you think?

Bad Zone Enforcer Gang - #2

Hi Gang,

I managed to do a little work on the Ash Waste Enforcer gang.
Finished two more Patrol Men I euqipped with cloaks (did one more recast) and some respirator looking equipment.
I think the heads of the Blooded Kill Team really work well on these guys.
Transformed a sniper rifle into an autogun and changed a stub gun for a concussion carbine.
Next step is to start painting one of these fellas to test the scheme and work on the next tutorial for you:

Shit happens

Hi Gang,

some of you might have already seen it on instagram:
Two days ago my office and hobby room got flooded due to crazy rain.
The whole room is a mess now, after I had to rip out the floor to try and dry the concrete beneath it.

This is the third water damage within half a year now and it's getting a bit much for me.

Of course I will keep up creating content for you guys here, but would like to ask for your understranding, if it might take a bit more time for me...

Bad Zone Enforcer Gang - #1

Hi Gang,

started work on the normal patrol men for the Enforcer gang going for the regular bodies but using the heads of the Blooded Chaso Kill Team for a more grim look.

I wanted to equip them with capes to protect them from the enviroment but since i'm not great at sculpting I was looking for a short cut here.
The Kroot Kill Team comes with a lot of nice looking capes and cloaks, so I decided to try and recast one of them as an experiment.
I used Green stuff to make the m...

PDF Tutorial - Bad Zone Enforcer - Kitbash

Hi Gang,

This one's a quick and simple one, but wanted to share with you how I kitbashed the Bad Zone Enforcers in case you would like to build your own.

Hope you like it!

Thank you for your support!

WIP Wednesday #7

Hi Gang,

with the Ash Waste Nomds finished, it is time for a new project:
Ash Waste (Bad Zone) Enforcers

The inspiration for these came from an instagram account called "Rokksville" who kitbashed some Leagues of Votann torsos on Corpse Grinder legs.
I really liked the beefed up look and decided to give it a go.

Instead of the Votann torsos tough I decided to go for the Ironhead Prospectors, since I really like the more hazard suite look of the armor also sharing some...

WIP Wednesday #6

Hi Gang,

this week I have this fun little side project for you:
An armored container that is not so armored anymore.

For colors I went with my usual acrylic rust undercoat followed by hairspay chipping of London Grey for the shadows and Deck Tan.
Followed by an Oil blacklining with Shadow Brown from Abteilung 502.
Weathering was done with oil paints (Dark Rust and Light Rust by Abteilung) just like in the scatter terrain tutorial.
The decals are from the Cargo 8 Ridge...

WIP Wednesday #5

Hi Gang,

for this weeks Wip Wednesday I have na nice little terrain piece for you.
When I started to build the Ash Wastes Board, I was eager to build it quick to play some games on it as fast as possible and therefore took a lot of shortcuts. Now that the main board is basicly finished I can take more time to add some more pieces with more character like destroed or damaged structures.

I used a dremel to add the battle damage and went for a mix of rust underpainting with acry...

Ash Waste Nomads Gang

And that's the whole gang finished.

Really enjoyed painting these, even though they are overloaded with details and take forever to finish.

Most of the arms are magnetised for more options in a campaign and apart from one guy on a bug, every single mini is more or less converted.

Looking forward to play some games with these.

Tutorial will follow soon :-)

Thank you for your support and have a great week!
Constantin

WIP Wednesday #4

Hey gang,
for this weeks WIP I have some Nomads for you.

I started a little Campaign with a buddy of mine and needed a few more bodies and different load outs.

All the arms are magnetised, for more options.

I did build one more Ganger/Juve with a slightly converted gun (two barrels)to represent a Blast Carbine instead of a Blast Rifle and one more Champion.
He comes with a kitbashed Heavy Blaster, since there is no model for this weapon by GW yet. It‘s a much pew pew...

PDF Tutorial - Scatter Terrain

Hi Gang,

happy to share with you the next PDF Tutorial.
In this tutorial we‘ll be painting different kinds of scatter terrain, having fun with oil paints for the weathering step.

Have fun painting and thank you for your support!

Cawdor Gang - Part 10

Hi Gang,

managed to finish the first of the Cawdor Walkers.
I have to say I wasn't a fan of the models at first, but with a few tweaks and a different paint job I like them a lot.

Used all the steps from the OG Cawdor Pdf tutorials and am quite happy the scheme also works on these guys.

Hope you like him too, his friends will follow.

Thank you for your support!

Next Tutorial

Hi Gang,
the next PDF tutorial is almost finished.
This time we are painting all different kinds of scatter terrain, implementing some oil paints for the weathering step.
If you never worked with oil paints before, this one will be a great guide on how to get started. They are just so much fun, very easy to use and I highly recommend you give it a try.

Later,
Constantin

WIP Wednesday #3

Hi Gang,
for this weeks Wip Wednesday I would like to present to you: The Bridge.
The idea originated from me wanting to have a longer walkway, that can span one whole tile, like a road, and having lots of theses steel cables I never used for my Hab buildings, left over.

The thing is now around 15" long and was build from a combination of Ash Waste walk ways and Zone Mortalis elements, for example the staircase suppoerts, now beeing bridge pillars.

I added two attachement ...

Ash Waste Nomads Gang

Hi Gang,
slowly chipping away on the Nomads Gang.
These take forever to paint, but are great fun never the less.

Slightly converted this one with a web gun from the Genestealer Cults Nephytes.
Because everbody loves a web gun :-)

Tutorial for these dudes is in the making and should be ready soon.

Cheers,
And have a great week!

Update on the Ash Wastes board + Pdf Tutorial

Hi Gang,

Happy to present to you the latest finished tile for my Ash Wastes board and a quick tutorial on how I made the battle damage on the container.

I wanted to try and incorporate more destruction and dark vibes into the board since, by now, I think it feels too clean and not grim enough.
The idea behind this tile is a lone settler leaving the Hive City behind, trying to build a better life in the Ash Wastes (yes, he's an optimist) until he get's an unwanted visit from Hou...

WIP Wednesday #2

Hi Gang,

for this weeks WIP Wednesday I have something different and very exciting for you:
Together with my buddy "Pitch Black Miniatures" I am working on some fantastic 3d printable bits to bring more life to our bases and gaming boards.
We will be releasing various sets of highly detailed, modular Ash Wastes /Waste Land themed, bits and bobs in digital form in the near future.

I'm really, really looking forward to sharing more exciting stuff with you on this topic very so...

Necromunda Weekend Campaign - Recap

Hi Gang,
Last weekend I organised and hosted a little narrativ weekend campaign of Necromunda.
We managed to bring together six players and had 5 games over two days.
All games where linked together and told the story of the search and hunt for a Cargo 8 Ridge Hauler lost deep in the Wastes filled with riches to be recovered.

For gangs there where two Orlock, one Goliath, one Genestealer, one Corpse Grinders and one Cawdor gang. So a reall nice mix of different playstyles.
...

Cawdor Gang - Part 9

Hi gang,

tomorrow is a big day for me:
I'm hosting my first ever Necromunda weekend campaign.
And campaign in general.

So I finished up my latest member of the gang:
A Hive Preacher.

I also took a propper family photo of my starting gang before they probably will get ripped to pieces by Corpse Grinders and Goliaths. 

Whish me luck, I'll keep ou posted and will probably upload a few stories over on my instagram.

Thanks and have a great weekend, 2023-05-26 18:21:29 +0000 UTC View Post

WIP Wednesday

Hi Gang,

this weeks WIP will be these new tiles I quickly knocked out for our weekend campaign kicking of on Saturday.

Still a lot to do to get them completely ready.
Hope you like them!

Have a great rest of the week,

PDF Tutorial - Dustback Helamites

Hi Gang,

happy to share with you the next PDF Tutorial

In this one we‘ll be painting a Dustback Helamite straight out of the Necromunda Ash Wastes.

I used an airbrush in this one for speed reasons but you can apply this scheme with a brush no problem.

As always, this technique is suitable for all different kinds of desert themed models and bugs.

Have fun painting and thank you for your support!
Constantin

WIP Wednesday

Hi Gang,

I thought I'll start a little tradition with posting a fresh hot WIP every wednesday from now on. (At least I'll try)

Let's start with my converted Ridge Runner I built quite a while ago.
With my first ever Necromunda Campaign comming up, it was about time to get some paint on the bad boy. House Cawdor needs a ride.

For colors:
I painted the whole thing with my go-to rust receipe, threw on a layer of hairspray followed by German Cam. Dark Green for the shad...

Bugs

Hi Gang,

I hope you all had a great weekend and got some hobby time in :-)

Quick update on what I have cooking for you guys:
Coming next week latest, the next PDF tutorial is covering the Ash Waste Dustback Helamites. We will be starting with the bug itself followed by a second tutorial covering the rider and Ash Waste Nomads as such.

Could also be a great scheme for some desert themed Tyranids.

Apart from this I have something special in the making that involve...

Ash Wastes Nomads Gang - Part 1

Hi all, I hope you had a great weekend!
I managed to finish the, way too big, bug horde for my Nomads gang. Quite a big project for me I have to say.
I just love these models and am pretty happy with how they turned out, espacially appy with the custom Storm Caller Champ and his four legged bug.

PDF Tutorial is on it's way :-)

Thank you for your support and have a great week y'all!
Constantin

Straight from the Wates.

For the next tutorial, you might need to paint more than your regular two legs.
Have a great weekend y'all!

Cheers,
Constantin

Cawdor Gang - Part 8

Hi Gang,

a not so small update on my Cawdor Gang "Bringers of the alternative Truth.":
I added 4 Way Brethren on Ridge Runner just released by GW.
I have to say I like the basic idea of walkers for House Cawdor matching the low equipped character and almost medievel vibes with walking beeing literally the oldest form of getting around for humankind.

But the design had some flaws for me: everything looked to rounded and almost aero dynamic, which for me doesn't fit the vibe...

PDF Tutorial - Kroot Weapon - NMM

Hi Gang, happy to share with you the final part of the Kroot Tutorial.
