Yeah im going for it big time this year and doing a proper Golden Deamon piece. After much discussion with my local GW manager I decided on a Grey Knight Dread Knight, manly because i really like the model unlike many other people and the thought that the manager gave me of doing it in NMM just made my mouth water. So going by the basic's of Base and Face to impress the judges I started on the base.
Now i am rather annoyed as i wanted to blog it from the start of the build to the end, but i lost the cable that lets me put pictures from my phone on the computer :(. Ahh well above is it partly painted it's getting there but has a long way to go.
As you can see I used a lot of the Warhammer 40K basing kit and from what i was told i was one of the last people to buy it as its going out of production, shame I really like it.
I built up the pile of rocks to give it the "big rock" effect this took several layers of slate and loads of dry time ( 5 hours to finish building the base).
And last the Dread Knight's beefy feet just to give an idea of were he will be.
Well that's it for now next update on the base should be on Saturday when i do a bit more work on it in my local store, and maybe some more of the Dread Knight will be built then.
Till next time
