Finished some more Stormcasts and scenery progress.

-
Hello all, a few more things to share today. I finished some more Stormcasts with head swaps and added some gold to the armour of the Knight-Questor that I showed off before. I prefer the updated version, I think he looks more imposing and it helps him stand out from the ordinary Liberators. 





And I got some scenery in, I'm aiming for a good post apocalyptic display board for better photos. So far so good but it needs more ruins and wrecks!

Baneblade! Plus Gaming and Painting Progress

-

Hello one and all. Long time no post again, but I intend to update much now often now given the changes that have occurred in my gaming life, namely that I'm actually gaming! I've recently gone from being a hobby painter to playing games, and it's amazing what a difference it's made to my overall painting work ethic. I finally went to a local gaming club and dipped a toe in with Warcry, which I found really fun. So I picked up the Corvus Cabal warband, although it was close between them and the Splintered Fang. I painted the Corvus Cabal in a week! The fastest I've ever painted a group of nine miniatures to a decent standard. I gave them the name the Birds of Paradise, giving them a brighter colour scheme than the GW standard. I gave all of the gang members names based on the taxonomic names of various birds of paradise, which fits thematically as they're related to the Corvus family of the crows and ravens etc. The bird that accompanies the gang is the Jav...

Dark Angel progress and Victrix Early Imperial Romans

Hi all. I've made some progress with my Dark Angels and started a side project as an attempt to prevent the Dark Angels from burning me out. My painting room is out of action at the moment but my current setup in the dining room is actually making me rethink my layout upstairs! Here's where I'm at now : It's a pretty comfy table to sit at, definitely better for my posture than my usual old computer desk. So first up the Dark Angels. I got an eight man tactical squad finished, just need some basing applying when my painting room is back in order. I'm pretty pleased with the overall look, edge highlighting is getting tons easier for me now. I've also started on the Dark Vengeance marines, with three bikes getting near finished and I've started base coating the Deathwing too. I'm enjoying painting my marines but at certain points the Ravenwing irritated me, particularly painting the white areas. I figured maybe another project to run conc...

The beginning of my Guard army - Cadian Armoured Fist

-

My first proper blog post is going to be about my latest foray into Warhammer 40000. I've been painting individual models mostly since I started painting again and I'm equally excited and apprehensive to paint a full army with a cohesive colour scheme and theme.   I chose Imperial Guard because they seem to me to have more individual character than armoured troops such as Eldar or Space Marines and are easier to relate with than xenos races like the Orks. I'm aiming to do small conversions such as head swaps throughout the army just to avoid them being a mass of identical drones. I've started with the Cadian armoured fist as shown above and below. After messing around with khakis and greens I ended up settling on a grey colour scheme. The red pauldrons on the armour are to make the models stand out a little better on the board. I swapped out some heads for Catachan and Chaos Marauder heads. The Sergeant has Space Marine Scout legs to give him a more epi...
