Posted: Sun May 25, 2008 6:35 pm Post subject: KARMAN ARMY :: The works of venerable Zaïus |
|
|
Hi all,
As i said on the french forum, i've just put on-line a new gallery of photos of my Karman army.
You will see notably photos of a unit of Kaptars completely repainted and on which a big work was made on bases.
I have a step by step of this work in the course of preparation: bases and painting. But I still had no time to work on these pages... But it is in my Todo list.
I try to work on the website, but an enormous editorial work is waiting to me in all the sections, but everything advances little by little, wait and see...
Here is the link to reach this gallery:
http://tiboudplomb.free.fr/AT-43/galeries_karmans.php
I take advantage of this subject to put the link of our last play, which took place yesterday and which saw the fight of 2850 PA of Karmans and U.N.A: a real butchery.
Even there, editorial is completely to make, but you can have a look at the photos.
Here is also the link: http://tiboudplomb.free.fr/AT-43/rapport_240508.php
Comments are welcome. _________________ Zaïus, élevé au beurre demi-sel (et à la banane)

Some more pictures.
Cornélius - Remain some work to do on this mini.
King Buggy - big painting work aging, rust and scratches on this piece of my army.
I'm really a fan of 50's design and Cadillac look & feel of Karman's vehicles . Again, it is not quite finished:
Yeti medic , work in progress - Equipped with the Great Karmic sting !
And last, an overview of the complete army.

O M G...
I haven't heard of Grape Ape for quite some time (since I was like 8 years old). My dad loved those old Hannah-Barbera cartoons.  _________________ Your mother is so fat the recursive function computing her mass causes a stack overflow.

Yes I had not thought of him for quite some time, then I saw the mentor freezer. For some reason, it hit me. Grape. Ape. Karmans. I think I am gonna get a few wendigos and try out a paint scheme this october. Wish me luck! _________________ ARMIES

I agree with this.

The syringe is not of my own. It's an oilcan found in an old W40K Ork War Wagon (a sprue of Tools : shovel, pickaxe, key, oilcan of oil, coffeepot, scissors, saw, etc...). I've just added the needle and fix, leak out and tiger the syringue to the glow.

In the first time, i think you'll curse me
Every base represents 2:00 of work approximately.
I advise you to work on 8 even 12 bases simultaneously. Stage by stage. By beginning with the sand ( several sorts), decorations (fragments of sprues, bits, etc.), then the prime coat, and the successives drybrush of approximately 6 colors.
Without counting the finishes (metal, rust, stones, etc.)
But when you will look at the magnificent result of all your army repainted with magnificent bases, you will thank me !
It's just question of ideas, time, patience, and practice.
You should not especially want to go too fast and to jump stages.
PS : sorry for my poor English  _________________ Zaïus, élevé au beurre demi-sel (et à la banane)

I was wondering what you were talking about... so I did a little research.
And... I remember him too. That was a loooooooong time ago, but Grape Ape actually made it to France. The show was called "Momo et Ursule".
I'm pretty sure only the oldest players would get the reference of a purple and green Karman army...
