Pimp my DeathJack – DONE

What a long strange trip its been.

After countless (implied 22) hours of painting I finished the monstrosity.

Behold!

DOne!!! DONE!!! done1!!!11 DoNEE!!!! I can finally stop sitting in this chair!! Gaaah my back!

Now, I’m not the worlds best painter. I know that. But I’ve been doing this for 16 years and, like Cohen the Barbarian, I have gained a certain level of cunning through experience. I know some tricks and I know how to make stuff look good in the mediocre style that I paint in. So while there are parts of this model that I could have spent more time on and really done things right in order to grow as a painter and all that crap, I didn’t. I got the job done in my own way and to be frank, I think it looks pretty….badass.

Thanks for everyone that offered me tips, ideas, critiques, and encouragement. While I couldn’t heed everyone’s advice, the general enthusiasm and clamour really pushed me to get this done in a timely fashion for you, the readers. A hearty thanks and a wrist clasping shake to you all!

Whats next? Pffft No idea. I should be moving next week and if I manage to find anytime to devote to gaming, I’ll be surprised. I’ll also post it here. Cheers

  3. Thanks guys

    I will measure it up when I get home. It fits by the barest c-hair in my battlefoam tray.

    It looks way better in person, in my humble defense. The white is way washed out in these pics. I couldnt get it write even with photoshop. So, next templecon…be prepared to fondle it.

    I measured the model this morning. Its 4.5 inches from hand to hand and 4 inches to the top of the necrovent exhaust.
