Escher Heavy and Juve finished!

Showcase: Batch Two. 9 Goblins from the Hobbit
That’s another 9 Goblins complete. I’m really pleased with how quickly I can paint a batch of these. In between batches, I’m painting a dwarf or two just to break up the project. I’m really pleased with the project so far. I’m just over half…
Showcase: Blood Angels Vindicator
Look, it’s a red tank! Vindicator this time. I really like those huge dozer blades on the new Vindicators, and the additional ammo in the back. At least it hints that all those 40k siege vehicles and battlefield artillery need ammo tanks as well. This…

Showcase: Blood Angels Predator #2
Here’s yet another Blood Angels Predator! Sick of them yet? No? I thought so. There’s just this need for more red tanks. The only problem is that I’m running out of things to say about them. These of course are commission pieces. In fact though…
Showcase: Empire Dandy
Have you ever painted a peacock feather before? Me neither – but it was worth a go, and it didn’t turn out too terribly! I actually quite enjoyed this guy, and had to do a bit of research into what peacock feathers and ravens actually…
