Showcase: Grey Knight 1500pt Army Shot
You don’t get many models in a 1500pt pure Grey Knight force, but you do get some lovely big centre piece models. Despite the lack of models, I still wanted a mix of units to paint. Draigo armies of paladins look so boring! Variety is...
Showcase: Grey Knight Interceptor Squad
I’ve completed my Grey Knight Interceptor squad. I really enjoyed batch painting just 4 models, it feels like such a long time since I batch painted a squad. This year has just been huge centre piece models, or individual Dreadfleet ships. Click on the above...
WIP: Classic OOP Tyranid Warriors
I love these old Turkey Warriors. In 1994 aged 13 I jumped on a train after school to buy a box of these. I remember the box, it was purple with some yellow and photograph of 3 warriors on the front. You always stick (or...
Review: White Dwarf – May 2012
Stahly has asked me to review the May issue of White Dwarf, and I jumped at the chance. Having just read the magazine, lets dive in! Unless you’ve been slumbering in a tomb for uncountable years, you will know that this month’s big release is...
WIP: Grey Knight Interceptors
When I completed the Storm Raven, I realised I only needed to paint four Interceptors to complete a playable 1500pt army. So I quickly finished of the The Flaming Scimitar and purchased another box of Grey Knights. So far I’ve highlighted, shaded and lined the armour and blacked...
Showcase: Dreadfleet – The Flaming Scimitar
My heart wasn’t in this. I didn’t want to paint this model because it does nothing for me. It doesn’t excite me in the slightest. I’m going to nickname it the shortcut sailboat. I rushed it to finish it because I just couldn’t be bothered....
Showcase: Grey Knight Storm Raven
I must be getting better at these big projects, this one only took a total of 2 weeks to complete instead of a month. Read on for more pictures including close ups of the freehand and weathering. The above shot shows the cock pit and...
WIP: Grey Knight Storm Raven #5
This is nearly finished now. I have now painted the weapons and the lights. I just have the crew and some weathering to do and she’s complete. I’ve deliberately tried to busy the model up, to break up the large flat metallic areas. Lots of...
WIP: Dreadfleet – The Flaming Scimitar #1
I’ve been feeling guilty recently. I’ve been painting all these awesome big kits and Dreadfleet has been languishing alone in the corner of my man cave like a Parrot who has a fear of shoulders. To rectify these feelings of guilt, I thought it would...
WIP: Grey Knight Storm Raven #4
Slow progress on the Storm Raven this week, I’ve been a bit distracted with the new paints. However I have managed to paint the four chapter icons and glue those on and paint the Aquillas gold. I think I’ll start work on the weapon systems...
