Here's an example of a model that got better with 6th Edition! A charge range of 2d6, a collar for psychic defense, and a rending high-strength attack are all pretty darn nifty.
Especially the increased charge range! I never used these in 6th 'cause a Strictly Average 6" was never long enough.
Anyway, I built and painted this dude in the last 24-hours for the Little Tim That Could - something to supplement his Chaos army.
This is 95% airbrushing, and most of it was done before breakfast then after lunch yesterday. Details went on this morning before work, and I just now took these pictures lunchtime of day two.

Quickie Orky Conversions...
So this week's Terrible Tuesday article covered spray paints, with next's week's planned to move on to air brushing.
Admittedly, with an air brush I'm still very much an amateur, but I'm learning! Generally speaking, right now I'm using spray paints for priming, air brushes for basic paint coverage, and traditional brushes for detail work. Much like learning any new skill, I'm taking a step back to take two forward.

Necro-Nid WiP... (BioPsychoAntiSocial)
I've been dropping shots of my work in progress 'Necro-Nid,' but after talking to Everyone Brother From Another Mother Big Whit on Friday, I realized it's a bit difficult to tell where I'm going with it.
This will correct that.
You see, his 'head' is meant to be a hologram projector, where this piece - from Greenman Designs Inc - will fit in, my homage to RoboCop II.

Brotherhood Update: Troops on the Table
Despite a busy weekend, I managed to fit in a ton of time on the Brotherhood. Today's pictures are the squad I put together on Friday... before a rare squabble with my lovely and long-suffering wife led to missing my regular game night.
That's on me. I stormed off and lay down for a bit, just to cool off...

Correcting a Mistake
I love this old Inquisitor model - or is it a Chaos Champion? Honestly, I'm not sure, but I've kept this model for decades waiting to use him... then I screwed him up. I tried to give him height by modifying his legs and feet.
Since I'm not good at it, I totally screwed him up. I've been trying to figure out how to fix him. My worst attempt included a greenstuff cape... I shudder to think of it.

Bugs! Harpy Conversions
So there's no Harpy model but I want to use 'em - what's a Strictly Average hobbyist to do?
So I want to justify the insane resources I spent on 2nd and 3rd Edition metal Nids models - what's a Strictly Average hobbyist to do?
So I wanted to get metal shavings all over the living room floor so my long-suffering wife can step on them - what's a Strictly Average hobbyist to do?
So I want you to hurry this thing along - what's a Green With Envy Digital Ego to do?

Bugs! Tervi-Bug Conversion
Well, I finished my Tervi-Bug conversion. Yea, some armies might call it a Tervigon - what's your point? Anyway, I've got to clean this model up and get a base coat on it, but I wanted to drop it here before I head off to work. Thoughts?
