very nice conversion, what colours are you going to use? Something earthy, I think. I'll propably go with greens and browns and greys. I'm not quite into that orange thing that people seem to be doing.  |

The veterans are now painted. They looked a bit plain so I did against my Sacred Principles(tm): Read the fluff and painted them with tattoos.  And I kinda like them!  Word is yours! |

Thanks gyus! Nice free hand tatoo job. I tried it once myself and it really sucked. Good to see someone succed with it. Well, I put only the best ones on the close ups. Some of the others were not that successful. Mmmm, those are ridiculous. Post a how-to! On the tattoos? It's just free handing with thin black paint. how do I do a how-to on that subject? |

Quick little video? I guess if it's just that you're that talented, then it's not something you can teach. Oh well...

That dude one-handing the shotgun in his left hand with the Maori tribal tattoo looks awesome. How much do you want for him?

Quick little video? I guess if it's just that you're that talented, then it's not something you can teach. Oh well... I'm not that talented. It's ten years of hard work. Just get a sharp brush, some thinned down black paint and some images of tribal (or other) tattoos from the internet, and try copying them in a bit smaller scale.  That dude one-handing the shotgun in his left hand with the Maori tribal tattoo looks awesome. How much do you want for him? Dunno if I can go selling only one mini from the set, but I'm planning on putting my catachans for sale when I get them done, and buy some Cadians instead with the profit (I don't like the catachan troopers, they're far too bulky for me, I just happen to have like sixty of them on my shelf). Maybe you can participate in the auction then. |

Those veterans look Insane! They look like if their shotguns ran out of ammo they would just crush the enemy's skulls with their bare hands! And the punisher with Comander Lenin is awesome, one of the best conversions I've seen

A little update after some time. The Punisher is finished, and first squad of ten is well on their way. I'll post some pics on them soon. The Lenin (to be used as Pask) is magnetized to his spot, so that he can be removed and added if needed.    |

I like, the only thing it should have though, is another guy's head sticking out of the hatch, so that Lenin is telling him where to aim, or even teaching.
Very nice though. ;D

Tank looks epic. Nice painting too.
I love the lenin model. Just adds so much flavor to the tank.

Thanks for the high praises mates! They really keep me motivated! I Changed the name of the topic too. Just couldn't go adding another plus to the end anymore.  It is the royal guard now. Dunno though what's royal on Catachan, but it looked better than just "catahan". I like, the only thing it should have though, is another guy's head sticking out of the hatch, so that Lenin is telling him where to aim, or even teaching. The tank was and old used model, so the hatch was already glued like that. :/Otherwise it would have been really nice idea! Here's just another sneek peek: My next Russ: The Hammer! It even has a hammer on the back. On the backgruond you can see my one scout sentinel, that I repaired and painted today. It was really in like seventeen thousand pieces, but it came out pretty well. Pictures on that when I get the base done. Also pictures of my first ten man squad are up sometime now. A little speed painted and messy, but if I have to get some hundred of those, you can't expect showcase on every model. :/ More about those soon. Now the pic:  |

I was going to add some plastic aquaruim plants to the base, but I didn't find any nice. :/ All were too big and would have looked lika some weird palm trees.

Amazing army! I love the sentinel. My Dad was using that exact same chainsword on a pole to cut the hedge this morning!

And I kinda like them! 
It is the royal guard now. Dunno though what's royal on Catachan, but it looked better than just "catahan".
