IH Conversion update :

Painting should follow quickly ;)

I'm not still quite sure of the bolter's color.
Red tends to override bionic conversion a bit...

Looks great!! As for the bolter, you could try a really dark, muted bronze color... like bronze with a couple coats of delvan mud, or some kind of a white-with blue wash.

I think it would look pretty good. Heres what im talking about - a massive Iron Hands thread with a TON of pics and wip conversion pics.

Interesting link 8)
Great conversions there. Paint scheme is nice, but i would not go for the light blue power weapons.

Alde I think you should check this site. Especially the bases would be very fitting for your IH. I'm thinking of starting an Iron Warriors army some time and Perhaps I might use these bases and heads:

The Steam Knights Helmets are very good for a pre-heresy army, sure.

For the industrial bases, I'm not sure.
I find the bases are a best when they contrast a lot with the model.

I mean if the model is very industrial, I would prefer a jungle or a desert,
to contrast with the armor. But that's a personnal choice, of cource :)

Thks for the links.

I've finished last week a 1000 point army, but the painting should be improved.
I'll post pictures tonight.

Along that, a friend give me some SM bikes to play with, and they perform very well in the last week local tournament.
3 win / 1 loss.

I like the bikes rules but not the bike models, which I find ugly (sorry no offense If you're a bike addict).

So I've got a crazy project for modeling... Iron Hands Mono Wheel Bike.
Yes, you've heard well :)

I would like to model more mechanical bikes, inspired from Grievous Wheel Bike, and other monowheel project.

Here what I plan to do :

Do you like it ?

when you do manage to model that (i have faith in your abilities) you absolutely MUST get pics up... consider it an order from the god-emperor himself (passed along through his humble servant)
