These are the boys as they stand now. Ignore the blu-tac’d heads… I still have a bit of work to do on the inside of the neck area – needs some decent shading to make the helmets stand out. Stormbolters will be a dark red and I think the cowl of the Justicar needs some … More A quick Grey Knight update
Second week down – more of the details on the Marines have been painted, and I have started work on the bases. There are two examples in the photos below – they are made from Super Sculpey, small (1:48) bricks by PK-Pro and a little bit of cork. They are not too tall and should … More Tale of Gamers – Grey Knights week 2
I have progressed a little with my grey knights but don’t have any ‘proper’ photos – just quick shots from my mobile phone, so I am going to keep them quite small. I wanted to do some gritty demon slaying marines rather than the shiny paragons of light that you normally see Grey Knights painted … More Tale of gamers – a little progress
Do you remember back in the day, White Dwarf ran a series of articles which basically amounted to painting a certain amount of models a month to slowly build up an army? It was called the “Tale of Four Gamers”, and is a really great challenge for people like Toosh and I who are painters … More Tale of Four Gamers… the beginning
Just a quick post for a monday morning… this is the Chaos Space Marine I’ve been working on. I’ve done some more of the NMM gold and painted the gem in his chest in an ‘Eye of Sauron’ stylee. These are very quick photos with my phone, so the quality is not the greatest (it is definitely smoother … More Working on a chaos marine
So, I promised I’d show what I had achieved at Tommie’s NMM lesson at Golem Studios, well here it is. After the full day of learning and several re-starts on the thigh piece, this is what I ended up with on Saturday evening. Since Saturday I have continued my exploration of the theories and put them … More Continuing on from the Golem NMM lesson
I’ve not been sat idle… I have done a lot more on Ulric the defiler – in fact, he is rapidly heading towards completion. One thing I am really beginning to wonder though is whether the base is too big for him… its 50mm square and obviously its rather tall. Part of me likes the … More What have I been working on?
The current project I am working on is a Banelegions model ‘Ulric the Defiler’, basically a hulking chaos cultist type with a demonic axe. I picked this up many moons ago, I think it was when Banelegions first came on the market but have only just got round to painting it (A bit like the … More Banelegions – Ulric the Defiler in progress
Hasslefree Miniatures are running a sculpting competition at the moment (until the end of September) where you start off with their armature and create a miniature of your own. The prizes are pretty good with HF credit for the winners and copies of their miniature for all who enter. More details can be found here. I have … More Chianti Lector AKA Hannibelle
I sculpted an orc bust last year, I don’t know if you saw the post. It was an Orc Gladiator, or ‘Gladiatorc’ as I lovingly called him. I spent a lot of time preparing to cast it – bought all the ingredients, resin, rubber the works. But I never got round to making the mould… I … More I have started painting the Gladiatorc
