Le update

 

[Zhatan]

Nice conversions you have done and I really like your painting style as well.

 

[Tlo1048]

Your converting is top-notch man!

I'm very impressed with your ability to work with green stuff, and the theme of your army fits brilliantly. Get that Giant built! It looks awesome!

 

[Vaftrudnir]

Thanks mates
Played a good 6k game today with two VC allies against, stunties, brettonians and daemons. Will see if they have any photos so I can post here.


(we won \,,/ )

Update:

 

[Vaftrudnir]

WIP.

 

[SoulSeeker]

This has to be one of the messiest, untidiest set of WIPs I have ever seen. I love it. Loads of creativity going on here, some brilliant ideas and a very fitting palette. Good stuff.

 

[Vaftrudnir]

The story of my life mate.

 

[Zephyr]

That is going to be one kick-ass unique army you got there! I love those Hexwraiths, so much better than the official models IMO.

 

[Vaftrudnir]

Haven't felt like painting in a while now so I made two trebuchets for a pal instead.

 

[Duke Danse Macabre]

Now those trebuchets's do look all kinds of awesome and strangely also easier to build than the GW equivalent.

 

[Vaftrudnir]

More or less finished with my black knights. Sadly the photos are lousy...

 

[Vaftrudnir]

Almost finished with my Vargheists.
Details and cleaning remains...
(sorry for the bad photos)

 

[Vaftrudnir]

Vampire heroes all done:

Plus my Blood knights.

[Tawg]

Those Varghiest stand-ins are actually pretty cool. I really like the long tongue standing out from the Bloodletter model; You had to sculpt ears on them though right? I can't quite tell from the pictures.. but I don't think BL have those :ghost:

Btw, next month is a Varghiest conversion challenge over in the Dying to Help section; Might as well take time to do a photo/post in that since you've already got something done up

 

[BeHe]

They look.....rotten! in the best possible way.

 

[Vaftrudnir]

yeah I had to sculpt ears on the buggers, don't think i got any photos of them just before I started to paint them.
A Varghiest conversion challenge you say? Sounds like fun.

Thanks for the comments mates.

It seems like I forgot to take a pic o my finished mounted Wight King Gregor. Here a pic:

Plus some pics of my necros still not finished and a Unit filler/stand for necros:

oh and WIPs of the ulfs:

Edit:
Finished one of the Necros.
Sloppy hobo but as Ive said earlier My painting is really getting worse...
The tattoos are supposed to look like centipedes but they went meh.

 

[Santawraith]

Necromancer is awesome glad you joined the challenges.

by the looks of your work table you have many more goodies we shall soon see.

Curious what are the robots in the background?

 

[Vaftrudnir]

Thanks mate.

The robots are my imperial guard ogryns to be. Im building an dark mech traitor army so my Ogryns will be a bit inspired by forge worlds traitor ogryns mixed with some strogg(quake series).

 

[Shareya]

Ahh, I was wondering the same thing ( and by some miracle I actually know what Ogryns are ). Nice job!

 

[robtion]

@vaftrudnir: Great plog, love your converting and painting style (kind of dirty looking but in a good way). The necro looks very cool, he was easily in my top 3 in the challenge. Keep up the good work

 

[Vaftrudnir]

Finaly some updates. ATM Im working on an empire army but Ive also been working on some heroes for my VCs.
Pictured here are one necrarsh, a necro and a lore of death/necro on horse. Im also working on some extra necros/death/shadow wizards for my empire force. Sadly I didnt get a picure of my old Crom model that i started converting abit some time ago(he got beat by Mannfred so IMO he got turned to the right side) Plus two hellsteeds that shall resieve vamps later on. Oh and Im working on a Varghulf based on Josef Sardu from the book series the Strain. If you havent read them, do.

 

[Wight Lord]

what wings did you use on your vargheist? i cant seem to percieve their true origin
lots of splendid creativity here, keep the greenstuff flowing

 

[Vaftrudnir]

Thanks mate, the heist wings are from the chaos space marine possessed box.

 

[benvoliothefirst]

Thanks mate, sadly I haven't had time to finish them.
Heres some WIPs.

OH MY ZOMBIE FLESH, THAT HORSE IS AMAZING!!!

Stunning conversion work, greenstuffing, color palette, painting, basing...

I WANT ONE
