This is a horrible miniature to paint.
The detail on these minis is pretty remarkable, but what I have noticed (for me anyway), is that once they are under coated and you put just a layer of paint on them, the detail seems to disappear.
Anyway, he’s just another WIP. Still need to finish him today, but I am hoping this is a one off, as the other chosen models seem to be much better cast.
So, now and then I do commission work. These two were used as objective markers in my clubs huge apocalypse game for the end of a campaign.
Sadly I missed the day itself, but I hear the navigator (or is it astropath?) won the day, as he had turned to chaos, and chaos won!
Anyway, I just thought I’d share them.
Started a test mini on my first chosen model.
These models are infuriating really. A little like the cultists, the models look pretty awesome in general, but there are a lot of areas on the mini where the plastic is stretched due tot he moulding process. It’s just so annoying.
Well, I never thought the day would come when I would have all twenty cultists complete, but today is that day!
And here is a small group shot of the last five I completed.
Not sure what is next, but the temptation to complete all of the Dark Vengeance stuff (at least the chaos side anyway) is pretty strong.
Just two more to go!
This guy was turning out okay until I did the mask. I may go back and re do the stitching around the face.
Well, number sixteen finished.
Not great, but not brilliant either. Don’t really like this new camera I am using if I am honest. Doesn’t quite take pictures as well as my old one!
Ah well, first world problem!
Well, this is a truly awful paint job.
I still need to finish the gas mask thing, the silver needs to be touched up, but I am trying to get the cultists finished quickly.
