Field Report: Siege of Terra Display Board

I love a good display board.  Over at Dakka, Ryan Geiler (AgeofEgos) shares a closer look at his Siege of Terra display board and army.  This is really best experienced in person, with the flashing LED effects that perfectly highlight the battlefield scene.

I spotted this board at Adepticon.  What was your favorite display board in attendance? Send a link along to ThePaintingCorps@gmail.com and get it recognized!

Emperor and Horus

This is what happens when you go to conventions.  You wander all around, checking out all the beautiful armies and painting contest entries and then suddenly you see something that makes you want to put 2 and 2 together and get awesome.

Horus above is done by Dave Taylor and part of Adepticon 40k Tournament Best General BushidoRedPanda's CSM army (counts as Abaddon).  Providing the Emperor and the steps of Terra is Dakka's AgeOfEgos.

If only someone brought a slain Sanguineous the scene would have been complete!  It is amazing that the two models are done by two different people.  The scale and look of them both is perfect!

Field Report: Wreck Diorama

Searching long and deep into jungle terrain, I happened by the BoLS website and came across this diorama by Bigred made from a broken Devilfish. If you can't repair your old models, the next best thing is to make them into a nice piece of terrain. I like the faded paint technique used-- it is simple, and easy to apply across a lot of terrain-- and effective.

Field Report: Diorama

I don't speak French, but right about now, I wish I did. My good friend CMDante pointed me towards a fantastic and extremely creepy diorama using Smart Max models. So naturally when it had a WIP link, I had to check it out. Be inspired and amazed, and don't forget to try some of the stuff you see yourself!
