Hi guys, thanks for checking out my plog. after a good night rest the things become sometimes really easy. A mix of 75% Scorched Brown and 25% black will do the trick .............. again all of you thanks for thinking with me.

Hi there guys, It is bin a while that I posted my work. I have bin on a wonder full holiday for a few weeks of 600Km off roading with our 4x4 Land cruiser through the Spanish Pyrenees. No time for painting............. Than back and starting to work again, I needed to catch up a couple of weeks. No time for painting................... But last week things where going back to normal. And thus I finished my Grenadiers ................ Thanks for watching and happy painting and playing ! (HPP) Magot.

Haha, I especially like the Heavy Flamer team, and the photo for it. Looks like he's swinging it round with all the might of the God emperor. Good job.

Brilliant painting on the grenadiers, Magot. I love those skull gas-masks.

Why the hell do DKoK have hf teams when codex guard just have single man hfs..? Because they are made of win? I do believe Vets squads can take a Heavy Flamer though.

Dear All, With great pride I introduce you to Company Command Squad Senior Officer Lieutenant-General Swearengen. I am confident he will lead the 231st to glorious victories. Your encouragement for him to be particularly appreciated

Very nice, Magot. You've done the model proud! Some extra highlighting on the gold would be nice

thanks Cosmic, your comments mean a lot for me,
I was in doubt with the high light on the gold. there is more hightlight on the model than the photo´s show. It seems that artificial light (at least the lights I have) take away a little bit of the sparkling highlights.
However it's funny that my doubts are exactly your comment. :-)

Does your camera allow you to change the White Balance? Have a play and you can get better pictures in artificial light.

I think I got some improvement there is no white balance setting on my camera, but I used the Automatic function

Great job magot! Loving the red great coat gives him an air of authority. He'll look great leading the rest of your force.

If anything, I think the red needs a bit more work. It looks as though it is naturally shadowed, rather than shaded and highlighted. I'm denying that you've produced a lovely painted model however I'm getting DKoK jealousy. I can't start another army..... I can't....!

Is that break-action grenade launcher just part of the FW DKoK model or did it separately? (and if so from where, please?)

I took it from the FW Infantry Firing Squad Optimat, for this Infantry Squad I used a Plasma Gun instead of the grenade launcher For the CCS I can now switch between Plasma Gun and GL depending on the foo (vehicle heavy or Horde)
