I love the horse (and the rest of the model as well, but that goes without saying). I find that they can be really hard to make look natural but you really pulled it off.

Ive got some more death korp coming soon (an infantry squad, grenadier squad, and command squad). Once Ive got them done, riders are most certainly next on the list, especially the mounted commissar. Ive always wanted that model.

Awesome!
Be warned the Grenadiers are a total nightmare to build!
I picked up the mounted Commissar on Ebay, cost me £30.
The model was in a pretty bad way but a little green stuff
and a lot of patience helped.
Looking forward to seeing your Death Korps (easily the best
guard models going!)

Nice work!
I do see a droopy barrel though, little bit of heat should sort that though. Otherwise can't fault you, I love the paint scheame.
Will you start the rest of the Rough riders next?
I got mine for £30 on eBay too, luckily, mine hadn't been touched. Beautiful model though.

Yeah the droopy barrels is due to my laziness when building them!
I'll be working on the Bombard next, I haven't weathered a vehicle
in years!

Droopyness aside they look great. The bombard is a really awesome piece so it'll turn out cool regardless.

Cheers MD!
That's a great help.
Only problem was that I fully assembled it before
I started painting (DOH!)
Hopefully it'll look ok

As a Heads up, I remembered Cosmic having an issue with the barrel end.
Then when I purchased it from him, I can see he added tin Sheets to fill the gap and make it smooth.
I'm sure he explains it better than me.
I hope you don't have the same problem.

But seriously, that looks great. The weathering is just fantastic.

That is a nice Bombarder, makes me want to go back and work on mine (Plan of action for tonight)
The cold and dark Bronze really works with the Green, good work sir!
How many Rough riders do you have, just the set of 5 at the moment?

Thanks swalkerfour! Which vehicles have you been working on?
Major Downer, I currently have 11 (Command Squad with Commissar and 5 basic Deathriders)
I'm going to work on the command squad first.

I was doing some work on a land raider for my heresy ultramarines. Needed a break from the black of Death watch and the green of guard haha.

I've already painted the army general, so it's just the Commissar and 4 riders to go on it! swalkerfour, looking forward to seeing your progress (I have a soft spot for Ultramarines!) |

That's really nice work, they steal the show and rightly so.
I'm looking forward to seeing how you paint the Macharius Vanquisher.
Keep it going!

Now that's a nice tank.  I think the deathriders are amazing sculpts, but they are so iconic for the Kriegsmen that I don't know how I feel about including them in my Cadian army. |

I really like that Green and the weathering is bloody good too.
The 34 is lop sided but those transfers are a massive pain to make them sit still.
Great job, what's next for you now?

nutty, that's true, they are kind of iconic.
swalkerfour, thanks a lot! Glad you approve.
Major Downer, thanks again! Yeah the transfers were a pain in the ass!
Next up will be Belisarius Cawl from the Triumvirate of the Imperium set
(he's the Mechanicum bloke)
