The final group shot

Here we go!  The last group picture.

A very interesting squad to paint, to say the least.

A very fun little project.  As I have mentioned before, painting 'neutral' white on anything is a massive rarity for me.

This makes a fair amount of White Scar marines that I have painted thus far.

Drivin' along...

Comin' right at you!

At long last... last bike

Last of the bikes!

As I have mentioned before, the odd phenomena of getting the routine of these down pact just in time for the squad to be finished strikes again. :-)

With each bike, I was able to 'cut to the chase' more and more.  You really learn to break down each piece, no matter how small, and learn the best and most efficient way to reduce it.

Since I had never painted any sort of space marine bike at all, or hardly even seen a finished one in person, it was yet another challenge.

There have been lots of challenges over the last many months, and I have had to adapt and learn very new concepts on the fly day after day.  It has fried my brain a bit, since I managed to lose a half dozen things in the last 24 hours. 

They were all ultimately found, but it was driving me berserk!  Ask Cathy :-)

Five times the fun...

Some shots of the bike squad as it continues to build.

Just one more to go!  Can't wait for that. :-)

Ground view...

Coming at you!

Each one slightly different.  A challenge to make them stand out from each other, but still possible.

Driving away...

Stay tuned for the grand finale.

Bring it on...

One more bike... one more to go!

This time, the leader of the pack.

This was a very nice base, from DragonForge Designs.

Almost there!!!

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

One more bike added!  The next one will be a little different, as it is the Sergeant with lightning claws...

As the unit begins to take shape, it dramatizes the effect of those Dragon Forge bases.  Fantastic stuff.

Just two more to go and the unit is complete!

Stay tuned for more enraged Mongol Space Marines!

Hey... where ya goin'?

Uh oh!!!

The White Comet

One more bike!  This time with a chain sword.

I have to say, these have turned out to be more fun to paint than I expected.  I figured they would mostly be a nightmare.  Happily, that is not the case!

As the squad progresses, I learn how to do each area more efficiently.  Of course, I will have these mastered just when there are no more to paint!! :-)

Also, I think the fact that these are more of a cool/neutral gray has piqued my interest.  I never get the chance to paint pure white, so this is very cool!  I will be painting some other figs with this scheme as see how that goes.

Three of a kind...

Some images of the three completed bikes together!!!

It is always fun to see these units build up like this :-)

I am still getting used to the idea of painting 'white', instead of some form of off white.

Where are you guys headed?  They're THAT way...

More on the way!

More bikes...

Is this what the Great Khan ordered?  Yes, another bike enters the mix!

This time, plasma was the theme :-)

The next bike is the Sergeant with power claw...

Another group shot on the way!

Back to the bikes

Some more shots!

After another very busy day.

Another one coming soon!

Stay tuned :-)
