Classic Ahriman repainted

I don’t tend to return to old models, but in Ahriman’s case, I made an exception.

This old metal model is one of the first I ever collected for Chaos, and he was the reason I made a strong connection with the Thousand Sons.  I have tried to keep as much of my older paint job on him I could, whilst making sure he fit the paint scheme for my current force.

It’s nothing special, but the model holds a special place in my collection.

As with most of my gaming pieces these days,  I decided to build this model fully before painting. However, I realised how much of a mistake it was when it came to the portal, and the tentacles, so had to pry them off. Tricky model to paint this, but happy with the results given it is a gaming piece.

I have finished the Starblood Stalkers.

Truth is, this lot have been on my desk in a near finished state for ages, but between the heat and my new job, painting time has been limited. Last night I decided to finish their bases off and clear them off the painting table.

Dark Eldar Haemonculus

I have finished the generic Haemonculus for my Dark Eldar.

This is a gaming piece, so to stop myself going to far down the rabbit hole with the paint job I did two things.

  1. I completely built the model before I painted it. It made the process trickier, but it turned out okay.
  2. I gave myself a day to paint it. I tried this recently with two miniatures, and I was happy with the result, so decided to stick with it.

 

I have Urien Rakarth for my army, but the fact that he is a resin model fills me with sadness. 🙁

Talos Pain Engine

I’m still pressed for time when it comes to painting, I have a lot going on that takes my attention away from the hobby. However, I have had this pain Engine in a half complete state for a while, and I managed to get it finished this morning.

Dark Eldar Wracks

I have had very little time to paint recently, but I have had a half finished unit of Wracks sat on my table for a while now, so decided to get them finished.

Sylas Beastbane

As with the other store anniversary model, I had only a day to paint Sylas Beastbane, so the focus here was on the minotaur head and his Sylas’ face.

Pretty happy with how he turned out all things considered! 😀

Kamoteph the Crooked

The new Warhammer store anniversary models are out this week in the UK,  and I have managed to paint them up. I only had a day to paint each one, so I decided to do a quick job in the most part, and focus on a specific thing to make “look good”.

With Kamoteph I chose his staff of light! 😀

I have recently completed Vellas von Faine. Two more awesome vampires to paint from the Crimson Court warband.
