I'm a million miles from being good at this, but I'm rather pleased with my results. Although the pictures don't really do it justice, as I couldn't quite get the light correct.

Rhino Done
Managed to get a few hours free last couple evenings, and after some heavy drybrushing (for weathering and sand/dust), washing and detail painting, I got my first rhino done. It was a slightly worse for wear eBay rescue, with things glued to it and some damage. I took off the extra junk (little green demons stuck on...not good) and managed to turn the damage into rusty weapon damage scars. I also turned 2 holes (one is out of shot in the pictures) into Melta Gun fire damage and made them glowing white hot and shiny 'wet' looking with a little 'Ardcoat glaze. I also added 'Ardcoat to the lights to make them look like glass.

Rhino Started
I got a 40k Rhino from eBay. It was a very old type, that had been 'converted' into a chaos one. It was thickly painted in red and bronze.
I cut off any daft items, and sprayed it black. I then added a few spikes, and gave it a little dry brushing in silver and grey for metal and dust.
Not looking bad so far for a battered old model!
I intend to add more details, and some shell scarring, and a Melta hole on the front.

Get some!
Made a start on this daft idea. I got a load of random bits of different marines, and a load of guns, and intend to make a "mental marine", waving lots of guns, standing on a pile of skulls.
I'll probably call him "Get Some!" and paint that on his base.
The pieces are coming together....

Zombie Hunter
Repainted this guys after about 25 years. Used the new citadel paints. They really are amazing. The jump in quality is quite markedly obvious.
I gave him some modern MTP camo trousers too.
I use him for 40k and Modern games, and recently as a zombie survivalist in GW Shop games useing 40k rules.

Undercoated Chaos
Undercoated my Chaos Marines. Using the very technical "double sided tape on a bit of wood" technique. They came up beautifully. And very easy to do on the wood too.
