Venerable Dreadnought Missile Launcher
Just finished the Missile Launcher arm for my Dreadnought. The other arm will host a Lascannon.
Pictures of “Island of Blood” Skaven models
The Rat Ogres totally blew me away… I’m sad that there are no Globadiers and Slaves though. Join the fun at Warseer, there are High Elf pictures, too.
Venerable Dreadnought body complete
Finished the hull and glued the Dreadnought together. I’m moving now to the arms. Painting is very exhausting at the moment because it’s really hot in Germany. My fellow readers from the US may laugh about temperatures of 30 °C (86 °F) but it makes...
Venerable Dreadnought… again
Before I’m going to paint more Eldar Guardians I’m going back to my Ultramarines Venerable Dreadnought. I’m currently working on the main hull.

Some Eldar Guardians
Sorry for the lack of updates, but I’m staying at my parents this week. However I took paints, brushes and some Guardians with me 🙂 So far I painted the bases and shaded the armour on this batch.
Showcase: Sanguinary Guard
Painted these two Sanguinary Guard for fun. A tutorial will follow later this week! I think the Glaive Encarmaine turned out quite cool and the deep purplish red makes the models more round thant the turquoise blades of the ‘Eavy Metal version.
