I have recently painted up a Crusade Ancient for my Son’s Black Templar force. I wouldn’t normally paint one in this way, the grey highlights, as opposed to the colder edge highlights they are traditionally painted with. But my lad decided this is what he wants for his army!
Turned out okay though!
I have had this miniature since it first came out. A regular opponent of mine had an Ork army, and as soon as I saw his charging across the table top, I knew I wanted to paint it.
So I bought one.
Sadly, like so many projects, he was built, undercoated, and then forgotten about. I actually thought I had lost him. Just the other day, I was tidying up my Games Room, and I stumbled across him once again. He has taken a little damage here and there (he was stashed away in a bag with a bunch of other classic metal minis), and he needed some other bits of cleaning up around the edges. But I finally decided to paint him. Just 20 years or so after he came out.
Big centre piece model for my Old World Army – Dark Elf Sorceress on Dragon. I plan on converting a Dreadlord on a Dragon too, but I haven’t got round to it yet!
Another graduate from the pile of shame, a Skaven Grey Seer conversion from the Screaming Bell set. I love the energy on this model, I originally planned to paint him on the bell as a little diorama but sadly it never came to pass. But I am glad I got round to finishing him up.
I have painted up a second squad of Scarab Occult Terminators for my Thousand Sons army.
As with most projects these days, I built these models before painting them, and if I am honest, this was a mistake. They are such highly detailed models, especially when it comes to painting the helms, that they have suffered a bit. I am not saying they look awful, just not happy with them in bits.
This is the second, of three, small Chaos Space Marine squad for my Word Bearers. I have tried to keep up with the balance of quality and quantity with these guys. So have built them before painting them, and tried not to worry that they aren’t “as good as I can get them”.
Quick “boy band” pic with them on a white background! 😀
I have finished the first of the Glott brothers. Otto. Next up I will be working on his sorcerer brother, Ethrac, next!
Some time ago I was asked for some help coming up with a paint scheme for Harlequins which didn’t use the diamonds or crazy patterns. I half painted this chap, and just left him alone.
I decided to return to him today and just tidied him up for a bit. I added a small pattern to his hood, and touched up some highlights, but I really just wanted to get him done!
These guys are done. Pretty happy with how they have turned out given the pace at which I have been doing them. I still need to paint the elite cross mark on the other shoulder, but that can wait for a while.
Onwards to Chaos stuff! 😀
The basic details on the predator are nearly done! I just have the top hatch and pintle mounted storm bolter to do and then the details and such can be added!
Again, apologies about the picture, I am very pressed for photography space due to things being packed up and such!
