Antenociti's G.O.T Warthog...

...nearly finished. I've added oil paint washes and done the chips/scratches. Just the weapons to add and a bit of stowage and then dust it a little.

Antenociti's Warthog: small update...

...another filter, edging, tyres painted and some detailwork on the 'engine' area

next - dry transfer numbers; oil washes; chipping/scratches; dust/dirt with pigments

G.O.T. Warthog

I first saw this vehicle early last year (?) when Jed from Antenociti's Workshop posted prototype pics on AW's website - it had seats on the rear then which I liked but were, I think, poorly received so Jed 'removed'  them. The Warthog was released very recently as part of the G.O.T. (Governance of Technology) game created by AW - a huge release of figures, vehicles and scenery and I ordered a couple of Warthogs and thirteen of the figures (I'll get back to these at a later date - suffice to say they are very well sculpted and cast and, where appropriate, include bases with bits of scenery attached). I've been trying to make some progress on the commissions but couldn't resist building (just a few parts) and starting painting a camo version. Here is the basic camo...

What I particularly like about the Warthog is its generic look and scale - figures from 25mm to 40mm fit really well eg Hasslefree

Pig Iron

HLBS (40mm) - the Warthog has had some lining added and a first filter (Mig blue for Panzer Grey)

The HBLS Future soldiers are ok but their feet are too small - I'm going to resculpt them because I like the look of the Warthog with figures of this scale.

Cadian/Elysian conversions...

Pilot head...

... for Wave SAFS

This is presently winging it's way to Tokyo to fit into this SAFS (Super Armoured Fighting Suit) built and painted by one of my Ma.K heroes, (if that sounds a little sycophantic I make no apologies!) Lincoln Wright. Thanks Linc, it's an honour and a privilege (more sycophancy).

Hasegawa Falke

I'm sure I mentioned in an earlier post that the major model manufacturer, Hasegawa, was now producing Ma.K kits (they're not readily available in this country as yet so I get mine from Hobby Link Japan) here's my Falke start...

This is obviously the cockpit and pilot virtually OOB. I've opened the visor of, and hollowed out, the pilot's helmet and put one of my spare 1/20 heads inside. I've also added a little cabling to the cockpit floor and some ketpads to the very bare concole areas. This will be sealed inside the craft with the only view available through the opening hatch as seen in the first photo and below...
