Merry Christmas everyone 💜

The Christmas Necron is here to bring presents to good children and to melt the flesh of bad children so be good... for goodness sake 😬🤣

Another Christmas custom - this one purely for my own amusement 🤣really happy with the reindeer scarab and the last minute addition of a Votann "elf" helper. Plus the icy snow on the base 😁 all told; one of my favourites from this year 😊

Have a good and restful break, gang. Eat, drink and be merry 💜

Just because she’s built like a war machine, doesn’t mean she has to avoid the ballroom.

Saw some cool art featuring a giant hat and realised I’ve only done a few big hats before, desperately wanted todo one and it turned into a rather elegant design in the end (thankfully, I was worried she’d end up looking like a pimp lol). I was tempted to actually paint this up with proper Mechanicus imagery, but decided to make it a little bit ambiguous so I might be able to use her as an Inquisitor and for other games.

If you’re wondering about that obscenely bright red, I used Rogue Hobbies’ signature paintset with just a contrast red over the top, created enough depth while still keeping the vibrancy of her paint. The resin pieces are some super super cool assassins from Anvil Industry

Finally done! I built and primed this silly gentleman back in 1988 and he has been bouncing around my painting area ever since then and has fallen apart many times since he is all metal, rather heavy, and I never did pin any of the joints for added strength. But now I can call him done.

Since a lot of new people are suddenly finding a new appreciation of Space Marines, here are some retro conpany markings and ideas: (from White Dwarf December 2008):

Crusaders are almost done.

Was looking forward to painting these guys, but Fine Cast, WT*! That stuff is awful! Not only is it terrible to assemble the minis made from this.... 💩 But painting on the surface is more work as well. Happy to see the back of painting these. Annoyingly, the next 4 minis are Fine Cast as well 😤😮‍💨😢😭

My sorcerer for my court warband. This was quite the ordeal to finish. Especially since I printed the miniature at only half the intended scale .. Al the details were super small

This is my truth.

Navigator I painted about a week ago :>

God’s Most Horrible Goblin Mech

The Nightsky. God, I love this sculpt. This awful, hunched metal death machine’s primary tabletop role is to bully lighter ‘mechs to death, and boy does the model ever communicate that. Pretty happy with how the Lava base turned out, considering limited resources, but damn getting the grey how I wanted was tough. I think it’ll be some time before I try another lance of Lyran Guard.

Plus, it’s my first time jeweling a cockpit!

Me getting ready for a cozy paint night on a dark and stormy night (soon I hope).

Dipping my toes into Egyptian styled miniatures.

So, Duncan posted his first space marine and it makes me feel slightly better about my first marine. It's also really cool to see how he evolved as a painted and it's nice to see that I can also improve at painting.
