Hi everyone,

In an effort to be more active about taking pictures and communicating a bit during the long hours spent painting every day, I thought I'd start a paint blog of current commissions coming in. I'll (hopefully) be updating regularly with WIP photos and finished projects.

I hope you all the pictures and I welcome any feedback!

Thanks for looking!

For starters, here's a commission that I've been working on for a week. It's going to end up being around 100 foot sisters with 5 or so rhino chasis and a few penitent engines. The commission is of the basic level we paint.

(I apologize for 2 posts here, but, I'm failing at editing first to add more images)

Few more group shots of the completed minis.

And finally a WIP of Saint Celestine

Little more work done today, finished some heavy weapons teams and a pentinent engine. Along with some jump sisters.

Little side track here tonight. Got a call to paint a Ultramarine Rhino. Here's the pic!

I like your work, the basic standard seems quite high. Could you share your method for the bone coloured armour? Seems it would suit deathwing too, and I'm after a time saving method as I have a few to get done!

Hi Million, sorry for the slow replies, hectic week here!

For a basic bone style like that I'll typically spray everything with a bone colored primer, or airbrush bleached bone onto the model. After that I hit it with a heavy wash of Devlan Mud (not sure on the new wash name). When that dries I go back over the model and paint all the areas in a couple thinner coats of bleached bone making sure to leave the recesses dark from the wash. If you want to take a bit further you can paint a smaller area in the middle of each section with a pure white. If you'd like, I could post up a few WIP photos for you if it would make the explanation more clear.

Thanks for the feedback!
