  1. Here's another one painted last year. A Space Marines Primaris Impulsor tank, one of the more recent vehicle releases over the last couple of years by Games Workshop. This was done as a mixture of figure painting techniques (edge highlighting, OSL glow) and AFV modelling techniques, particularly in the weathering. The scheme itself is a homebrew chapter scheme that I've named 'Sunstorm Knights'. With many of the models I've painted in this scheme I've tried to add a nod to 80's action heroes. See if you can spot the reference to a certain TV show here!
  2. Well I was trying to avoid another work-in-progress, but I'm enjoying myself so I thought I'd better 'fess up to what I've been up to the last week or so. The new edition of Warhammer 40K was released on the 17th, and as usual I failed to resist a big box of plastic crack so now I have a load of Death Guard and new Space Marines to paint. I really bought the box for the big marines (a head taller or more than the previous standard) but was won over by the Nurgle models when I saw them in person, so those are the first to see some paint. For the (perhaps luckily) uninitiated, Nurgle is the Chaos God of pestilence and disease, and is a jovial grandfatherly god who loves to give his followers (and anyone else) presents of delightfully interesting plagues, poxes and other unpleasant afflictions. A bit like a fetid Father Christmas. https://www.games-workshop.com/en-NZ/Warhammer-40000-dark-imperium-eng-2017 So last week I cleaned up, built and primed 31 minions of Nurgle, starting with ten Death Guard - space marines which have fallen in with his icky ways: (click for bigger) I've only photographed five so far, which include the special models like the chap with the bell, and the one spewing a cloud of something nasty. The other five are more normal, but they're all different and have interesting details. After that I did the Bloat Drone, which is a sort of demon-powered flying sludge lorry. The model is supposed to look like this: but I wasn't in love with the rotors and modified mine a bit using some spare parts left over from another Nurgle model, as follows: giving a sort of Baron Harkonnen battle suit result, or so I hope. I think sticking the guns on might be a mistake so I'll probably be removing those again before I come to paint him. Lastly I had to put together twenty pox-walkers (plague zombies) which came on two identical sprues. I've made up one set as-is and converted the others a little so they're all different. It's not a dramatic difference as apart from one case I limited myself to using parts removed from other pox-walkers, so it's really mostly head and weapon swaps with a few other changes. Tuesday night I spent a couple of hours getting some basic colours onto one of the pox-walkers to try out ideas for the group. I thought it was a good start, but the PPE was better all in safety orange, and the brown cloth was too close to the other colours so I've done that green. I might give some wine red or white cloth as well? So this is where I'm at now: Nearly time for a matt coat and some metallics on the gun and nails. But I need to paint the base first. The flat bit will be glossed over as a swamp, and the sticking up bit needs to be wet earth or moss I suppose? I really hope I stay the course with these, we all know how easily I get distracted and twenty zombies is a lot But I loved painting the first one, lots of well-defined detail and a nice open pose (I suppose that's de rigeur for something which is only two injection-moulded parts). Plus doing the icky bits is really fun Cheers, Will
  3. Brother-Chaplain Viator Primaris Space Marine Chaplain of the Raptors 4th Company Brother-Epistolary Maurinus Primaris Space Marine Librarian of the Raptors 4th Company I've recently gotten back into painting and playing Warhammer 40K (Kill Team, to be specific) and decided to add a couple of commanders to my Raptors chapter kill team. I chose a chaplain because they've always been my favorite space marine sculpts and a librarian because I've never painted one before. As far as paint schemes go, the chaplain is pretty standard except I tried to go a little easy on his bright and shiny bits since Raptors space marines favor stealth and hit-and-run tactics. Also, I used no black paints and instead used only dark greys to paint the "black" armor. Librarians are typically clad in blue power armor, but that doesn't really jive with the Raptors "tactical" manner of waging war in the name of the Emperor, so his armor is instead painted the usual olive drab of his battle-brothers leaving only his helmet blue to represent his position within the chapter. Comments and criticism welcome!
  4. Hi everyone, With modelling time at the bench at a premium these days I picked up this project that I'd set aside for a while. This figure is the white metal Games Workshop Daemon Prince. It can be used in either the Warhammer or 40K universes as a Chaos character. I'm no gamer so can't tell you anything about the way it plays, sorry. The kit builds easily from only a few pieces. I had to use some green stuff in some joins but nothing over the top. The model is brush painted (approximately) as per the box artwork using Citadel and Valejo acrylics over a Chaos black spray primer.
