Waiting for colors to arrive

I ordered a bunch of new colors that will be needed for the Cygnar army (never did much blue stuff on the models), and while waiting for the colors to arrive, all there is to do is more bases :)

Here are three more:

Finished bases for Cygnar jacks

First bases for Cygnar jacks are ready. Grass over terracotta red earth:

The road base for the heavy jack is done already:

Beginings of a Cygnar army

In the past few months I came to the conclusion that even though Circle Orboros have probably the prettiest and coolest models, I really don't enjoy their play style. After some research, I decided to start a Cygnar army, and as always, I will start with the bases :)

First models I will work on are 8 light jacks, and one Ironclad. The general idea for the bases is to go for red earth/terracota color, with a lot of texture, and a lot of green grass. I also decided to throw in some roads, and the Ironclad will get the first road/earth base :)

Here are some in-progress photos:

 Cobblestone road is made of cut sheet cork (2mm thick) and just laid down to look like cobbles. The "ground" is a mix of mid ballast and shale (some sand will be added later on to smooth it out).

Red earth bases are based in mix of dark umber and red (looks like terracotta to me)

And here is the final product (without grass for now, and with primed-only jacks on top):

New space marine terminator

This little terminator is a test for the color scheme I want to use on my new Blood Angels army (that I will begin after the Space Wolf army is finished and when will that happen nobody knows)

Beside the botched decal, I'm pretty happy with how it came out :)
