Cheers anzu, much appreciated. I started off carving in with a scalpel, but once i heated the knife up i could get a couple of lines done before the blade cooled. Push in slightly harder to make separate planks.My technique got better when i started making small circles for knots of wood making the lines slightly more circular. It is a slow process, a bunsen beside you would be preferable. I toook a couple of bits to work to get access to a bunsen.
Its great to use waste material for stuff, love my sprue goo too (in acetone) for filling holes and giving some (basic) texture as it dries.
Sounds neat, thanks! I need to try this. Perhaps a candle or alcohol lamp would suffice. No issues with slow and labourious processes, that’s me & my hobby in a nutshell haha!
What I had in mind was a 28mm version of the Warmaster Kislevite war waggon as well as some chaos dwarf artillery.
Thankyou v much, using waste sprues is fun, intensive, but fun… we can build all sorts of constructs with them. Would be great to see others give it a go. Cheers
Here are the latest additions to the army of zodd. Ive got really keen on having a unit of beserkers in my army. These could be represented by a unit of mutants, macrocosm beserkers or semi naked types with coloured hair and beards. Out of these 3 potential units one of them could also represent the acolytes of hashut, id need to add a sorcerer or something to whichever unit becomes them.
Cheers zanko, much appreciated! Its all about exploring the lesser explored areas of the chaos dwarf list and finding unexpected proxy ideas to cover everything to keep us going until the old worlde chaos dwarf book comes out in the year 2525!
Im thinking you mean 4th from the left? The std bearer. Its a macrocosm std bearer with a banner top change. The blue grey is a standard macrocosm cd with no changes
My whirlwind. I printed it and converted a centaur from atom taylors cd torso and a bm bargains plastic toy. Had to paint on textures to make it look better. Think i got away with it
This idea started due to me watching kenobi and seeing darth vader fight ben, brilliant!
So i did a version of darth with some lighting effects with a magic hammer. He was meant to be a hero but then a unit of larger centaurs (bears ) seemed cool to me
We all knew instantly this was your entry, everything was screaming YOU! such quality! Those vibrant colours!
How you mixed different parts is really well executed, and i love how you made the whirlwind!
Is it that one from cults3d or an original one? Sooooo good!
My original plan was to have 2 forces fighting it out like in all the old warhammer photos from a long time ago. However my phone camera doesn’t seem to like focusing on more than 1 fixed range…annoying!
It was important to me to show the human warriors in relation to the chaos dwarfs. Otherwise they would just look like chaos warriors or cultists. I wanted to tie them in to the army
So one force was a tzeentch force led by a chaos dwarf sorcerer on a disk. His followers were a unit of chaos dwarf beserkers and some northmen procured into his service with whispers of gold and glory.
Did any of you realise what the 2nd force was? this is a band of malal followers. They hate chaos but also hate everyone else too. This theme allows me to mix in dwarfs and chaos dwarfs (and anything else) under 1 common banner. I have plans to add to this force as one or 2 things didnt get finished in time.
I think no less than 7 of the halfling helmets were sculpted by eddie/ Loidrial. I need to talk him into doing more of this kind of stuff. Its so good and so handy.
It was nice to paint the old chaos sorcerer after all this time. He leads a band of chaos cultists and is attended to by his darkling familiar.
making the lines slightly more circular. It is a slow process, a bunsen beside you would be preferable. I toook a couple of bits to work to get access to a bunsen.
Please keep going, I’m looking forward to the next models! 
so it ended up a different colour.
