Hello all. My blog is beginning to feel clunky now theres so many hundred pages so I though I would chuck out a showcase of finished and based work (there isn't so much as I'm a lazy baser). I mostly paint old rogue trader models and necromunda. I'm also a massive fan of hasslefree miniatures so hopefully we will see some of those based soon.

I love everyone one of these models and your paint does these justice. I love all the character they have.

Awesome work!

Thanks massively for your comments squidbot and uncool villain. Oxygen for the fragile ego, it keeps me painting.

So I will continue to update this when things actually get finished (full painting to my satisfaction and a decent base). I'm working on some urban bases for my hasslefree civilians atm so they might be up soon. Oh and a delaque ganger jumping over a rusty sewage pipe is in the works.

In the meantime don't forget - THE INQUISITION IS WATCHING YOU.

Love the models and love the modern execution. You so often see this era of sculpting painted a bit garishly, the subdued palette is refreshing.

Very impressive!

Babies, chum: tiny, dimpled, fleshy mirrors of our us-ness, that we parents hurl into the future, like leathery footballs of hope.

I still have a few of them and know exactly where they are in my man cave. I'll dig them out for you. See, this thread is making beautiful things happen. Elton John should write a song or something

Genestealer hybrids are great but have you seen how much they go for. Damn expensive habit.

M4cr0Dutch I hope there's a magus in there somewhere

Here's a chap with a cool base - I'm using my old camera because the new one died so this image could be better. Oh well time to dig out the warranty.

Big update today. I had a busy day off.

Alyx from hastlefree



A mercenary - a bit of a wonky model this one.



Hybrid - One of my all time favourite models this



And these berserkers which I painted s years ago get some base love - you'll probably notice my painting style was a little more garish on these! The ones without backpacks are ancient - 1988 I think.

I love the hybrid, it is one of my favourites as well.

Below is the type of Magus that I have. You would have to strip it (I can't claim responsibility for the horrible paint job). Asuryan has given me permission to sell it or swap it for something, he likes it too much to give it away for free . This particular figure isn't too expensive on Ebay, so let me know if you are still interested and we will figure it out.

I remember that model, back from the days when every army had a colour scheme like an explosion at the rainbow factory. Not that it was bad mind you, sometimes I'd like to see a little more colour come back to the GW studio armies, which all tend to look quite grimy and bleak these days.

true that commissar80!

Scavtastic - I am constantly torn over whether to go garish or grim. So many colours to choose from.

Here is today's offering. I have no recollection who makes this mini - I think I snapped it up on ebay for a song.

I wish I had a nice desert background to go with this - Have to print one off soon.

Brilliant stuff, weety!

FYI, the dude on the dino is (I believe) Viridian cavalry from I-Kore's Void line - it has been a while since I painted mine (a unit of 5), but they were used as cavalry for a fan-dex devoted to the Imperial corporation of the "Warzone" game universe.

I'm so used to seeing old school models with old school paint-jobs... Makes me remember the excitement I felt 20 years ago to see them painted well.
