Showcase: Dark Angels Primaris Apothecary

OK for all the trouble this model was to paint, I’m really pleased I pushed through to finish him because I’m really happy with the results. In his bright white armour he is really going to stand out amongst the see of green bodies. More...

WIP: Dark Angels Infiltrator Sergeant

In my last post I wrote about how hard the Apothecary was to paint. I’ve thrown in the towel. I got so tired of detailing over white armour that I picked up a different model to paint. This Infiltrator Sergeant sat upon a Get a...

WIP: Dark Angels Primaris Apothecary

Out of all the models in the Conquest publication, this model is the hardest by far. Anything with a white undercoat sees me spending ages putting shadow and shading back into the model with every time I pick up a paint brush I run the...

I’m becoming quite efficient with my Conquest painting publication project, I’m finishing the monthly batch of models earlier and earlier. I finished April’s batch with a good two and half weeks spare which mean’t I could make a real dent in the Shadowspear boxset. After...

Conquest Recap: Issues 27 – 30

Crazy month for Conquest models. We were treated to a Heretic Astartes Rhino, a Gravis Captain with three sergeants and some ruined building terrain pieces. That’s a lot of models to paint! After the jump some close ups as well as group shots of both...

Showcase: Dark Angel Vanguard Librarian

Wow! I’ve painted something that isn’t green! This model is easily my favourite from the Shadowspear boxed set. I love the dynamic pose. The flow from the robes is just a miracle in plastic casting. After the jump I share more angles as well as...
