WIP: Abaddon the Despoiler

Remember my WIP conversion? Well since I finished my Annihilation Barge I’ve been trying to complete Abaddon. I’m using my own tutorial and scheme which is slightly different to the eavy metal scheme for Black Legion. I didn’t want him to be the king of...

WIP: Necron Annihilation Barge #2

Having painted all the sub assemblies using my airbrush and then a traditional hairy stick, I glued the items together. I’ve also based the model. Not sure I like how the model over hangs the front of the base so much. Just the turret weapon...

Showcase: Ultramarine Vanguard Conversions

I painted this squad a couple of years ago now, and these are the pictures I originally took back then. Pretty terrible photography when compared to my latest efforts. All the models are plastic conversions with freehand icons painted (handy tutorial here). Read on for...
