The grand finale!

Image
And so it ends, about four and a half months from when it started.  Not quite 2000 points of pure Idoneth as I had originally intended, but still a 2k+ army done and dusted.  I think I would like to expand this army, but not by a lot.  Mathaela, a couple more units of infantry, and maybe some day an Eidolon of something. So here are a couple of final shots of the Cogfort, as well as the whole army, in all its blurry glory.

Almost done

Image
So I decided to throw a few bits of colour on the shipwreck.  Completely unrealistic in appearance for a shipwreck, but it is a fantasy shipwreck after all.  I still might revisit the floor of the ship that is full of gribblies that are currently all brown.  I don't know though, I need to finish basing the Cogfort, and have a lot to do before I leave.  I can field this without too much shame though.

Done!?

Image
Well, not entirely, but kind of.  I think with a a quick basing, I could quite comfortably field the Cogfort as is.  Having said that, there is still lots of areas that could use additional shading and highlighting, but damn, I am feeling pretty good right now. And the full army.

Started applying Aggaros Dunes to tall the wood.  Showing the side that is done.  I should do some drybrushing on the wood, but not sure it is going happen.  I basically have to complete this project and any other finishing bits by end of day Friday, and there is still a lot of fiddly bits left to do.  The wood is something I think I can live with as is.

SHARKNADO!!!

Ok, some might say I have completed my Idoneth Deepkin army!  Not me of course, because I have yet to hit 2000 points, and really should do a bit of detail work on my shipwreck.  Here is the last of my pointed units done though. Plus a little Sharknado display this is really not that shark heavy. And a more orderly arrangement.

The shark tornado approaches!

Getting pretty close here.  A bit more paint, some highlighting and this last Idoneth model will be done.  I guess there is still some work to be done on the shipwreck, but I could pretty easily field it now and most people wouldn't notice it wasn't finished.  Then I can focus on the Cogfort.

Sharkskin

Well, I only took a picture of the shark, but I was able to get almost all of the first layer of Wraithbone over the wood sections of the Cogfort.  I will do some touch-ups, then start with the contrast, big weekend coming up! So as per the title, I painted the shark's skin, so that is done. I also put a layer of wraithbone over the suit is is wearing, and will need to apply some contrast leather on that.
