the start of a grot revolushun

[geekymike]

Here is the grot who will lead a revolushun
still a wip.. needs a few more highlights on the clothing as well as some more colour to balance out the fist to the plasma pistol.. and of course to finish the base

That Grot has VIKING POWER. I approve. :D

Out of interest, is there a particular codex that you're basing this off of?

[Wolfshade]

Awesome :)

Let the Grotolusion begin!

I have to agree. Wonderful look. Can I ask what colors you used to get the skintone? It really pops!

[Black_cat]

I would also love to know how you did the skin on the grot!

Love your work, and also love grot revolutions (and am planning one of my own :)

[geekymike]

Dlatrex and Black_cat the skin is really simple..

start with black primer then its orkhide shade foundation(or whatever the new dark dark green is)
warpstone green over leaving the deepest parts of orkhide showing through
the its moot green on top of that leaving the layer of warpstone showing through
wash the skin with thraka green(or equivalent) and do a final highlight of moot green again

Awesome :)

[Proiteus]

as a fellow Grot Rebellion player I gotta say "Now dat iz a proppa lazer, i luv it!"

For my Manticore I converted Da Air Strika (http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/154/9/2/Grot_Air_Strika_by_Proiteus.jpg) which called in Grot Bomb barrages I had also considered a conversion similar to your called the Mega-Zappa but I planned to use it as a Medusa and say it worked like a Eldar Fire-Prism with a large blast and a smaller focused blast.

Considered me subscribed to this thread. VIVA LA GROT!

[geekymike]

Quite an honor to have you following this thread Proiteus considering your grots did a lot of inspiring to me!
I went the opposite way and decided to use "da air strika" approach for my deathstrike missile ...though I will admit I did build a sizeable grot guided pulsa rokkit to go with it

[geekymike]

busy doing some paint and building over there weekend now with pics to prove it

first up manticore pics...aka the shokk attack cannon
