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...
Showcase: Finished Necron Annihilation Barge
When I started this model, I was dreading the complexity of it. I found breaking it down to lots of smaller sub assemblies made it easier and a lot of fun to paint. I really happy with the outcome. Read on to find out...
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...
WIP: Necron Annihilation Barge
The Tale of the Mega Painters Challenge hots up as I’m now keeping pace with Stahly. Yesterday Stahly posted his cool airbrushed Raider wip shot, and today I’m pleased to share my airbrushed Annihilation Barge wip shot. I used this Necron tutorial I made to...
Showcase: Finished 9 Necron Warriors
Hot on the heels of Stahly’sfirst completed unit I’m happy to announce I’ve finished my first unit. Three of the models had already been painted previous to this Mega Painters Challenge so I just had to touch them up and base them again to match...
Showcase: Tyranid Attack Boxed Game
Who is old enough to remember this? Or perhaps you remember the same game of a different name called Advanced Space Crusade? I never had the opportunity to purchase this when I was in the hobby in the early 1990s, so when I saw this...
Showcase: Classic Tyranid Warriors
A quick post to show the finished Tyranid Warriors I’ve been painting this week. The scheme is reminiscent of the classic red warriors, but i’ve added the purple weaponry and spotted black carapace of my own Tyranid scheme to fit in with my current army....
WIP: Necron Warriors
OK I’m kicking this project’s arse now. I’m making great progress with this squad after a dismal start! The company I bought the rust paint from replaced the faulty product and the new one works great. I’ve refined painting the rust and it now includes...
WIP: Classic Tyranid Warriors
I have a soft spot for these models. I think they look really alien. I love the scaly hides and the bulbous heads perched on tiny turkey like necks. I recently painted eight Genestealers and these three warriors are the last models to paint to complete...
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...
