Those meganobz look stunning. Beautiful work.

Chair of DOOOOOOM..... progress.....

sat down this morning and whiled the minutes until work with my brush in my hand a raging desire to make Whaleys models look good! I thought about the Inquisitor and how they operate, the dark baroque feel they have and what would suit the model?

I finished the gold/brassy parts and went to town on the scroll and pennants, my idea was to add a spot colour as if the scribe has been writing runes of warding or ancient litany's to attach to the chair. I'm liking where this is going now and should have him finished soon.

photo's are from my phone so sorry about the clarity and saturation but the next lot will be done nicer







aaaaand I thought i'd open Vulkans box and get him ready for paint but when I opened the box I discovered that i'd missed half of Whaleys warband yesiree there they are another 14 odd models for painting lol! so Vulkan can stay lost for a bit longer.....

Hm, I could have sworn the Emperor banished that dude to the warp.

Good stuff as always, not sure what to say anymore.

Very interesting work on the scrolls. Not what I would have expected.

More inquisition?? Always a good thing.

Interesting choice on the scrolls. Might have been cool to have regular script with the runes over top of it. Should look ace regardless.

Did the painted models break apart in transit, or was that on purpose? Feel free to completely cover my paint, or make it more gooder, whichever is easier.

Absolutely stunning work on the Nobz (flesh especially), and nice start on the lazy Inquisitor...

Some more commissions now ?

Yeah thanks guys, the models did indeed explode in transit Whaley :-(

I thought about regular script but it felt a bit too done to death as the go to thing for scrolls (not that that's a bad thing) I like it of course lol so I'll work on it a bit more today and see if I can convince you?

stay tuned....

Hopefully everything is still there! At least it was all in a box.

Almost there.....

I like the seat of the chair of doom. But I must remember the "Comfy Chair" sketch from Monty Python every time it's deployed on the table. Is that leather you painted for the seat , hope he has air conditioning for that seat in summer time.....or when the sisters of battle are flaming away.

I wrote a cool short story about a planetary governor trying to escape from his palace only to have the wall turn to molten slag before his eyes and a giant dreadchair force its way through the still steaming hole,Inquisitor Karamazov with his dark and accusing eyes finding him cowering before he enacted the sentence of death....... But, bloody William jumped up next to me on the couch and was playing silly buggers and his the keyboard thus deleting my 35 minutes of typing


so, you'll have to settle for some cool pictures of this gritty hunter of heretics






now for his minions.....

He looks awesome! Definitely fits the look of accusing of heresy and ordering them executed.

Bloody gorgeous stuff. Nice one.

Very nicely done Damo. Very gothic.

I might have missed the line where you explained the weird esoteric symbols on the parchments, but... What are they supposed to be ?

Oh, and great job of course...

Very nice. The faces are incredible... I'm so jealous!

Here's some work in progress of the warband acolytes a little metal here a little gold there, next i'll do the other little bits like parchments and pouches, vials and chains and give them a good wash, that will bring the details to the fore. Once they're done I'll paint the hell outta the faces










so? how' am i going with them

Everyone except the Jawa and the goat look like they're having a bowel movement... and a stubborn one at that.

Lol Git's I cant unsee that now.

Really nice reds Damo.

Just a little stop gap, but I picked up a bit of a bargain I didn't think i'd want and it arrived today and when I actually got them in my hands my mind rapidly changed! sooooo....now I'm the owner of Grey Knights and i've roughly worked a small list with what i got and I only need to buy 3 things to finish it!

* Draigo (need to buy)
* Terminator Libby (need to buy)
* 5 man strike squad with halberds(need to buy)
* 5 man strike squad with halberds
* 5 man Terminator squad with force swords and a Psycannon
* 5 man Terminator squad with force swords? and a Psycannon (these haven't been built yet so can change)
* Nemesis Dreadknight with sword and big flamer thing
* StromRaven Gunship
* Brotherhood champion (need to convert)

This way I can deep strike all of it if I.m reading correctly and just have some fun with my mates! gonna paint them in dirty dark metals with green and cream as spot colours and use the two bare heads from my Howling Griffon termies in these guys

That's a rather tidy list. You might see if you can change out some of the swords on those termies with either halberds or hammers. I may have some extra if you need them (not sure... PM me later and I'll go through my supplies).

I may as well. So I can get them to Git and he can get them to you

Oooh I will definitely be interested in how you paint those GKs!

I have slightly changed my list by having 5 of the Termies with Halberds and my strike squads are now going to be two -5 man Purifier squads for fun and scorchy goodness!

also I finally went into the new GW store we got recently and they're having the armies on parade there :-) so I'm going to enter my Grey knights which will give me the inspiration and the possibility to actually win something (or at least place) should be a fun couple of month while I get that going as well! does anyone know if it needs to be purely a display or can it have an element of diorama about it? I've got some ideas but don't want to do something wrong!

Sounds exciting. I think its supposed to be an army display, dont hold me to that though.

I was just thinking of having some daemon models emerging from the board to represent an incursion? tastefully of course!

Tastefully? No no no my friend you need to go a different route. Boob-demons of Slaanesh emerging from piles of cocaine, and Draigo off to one side with his face in a big bag of that sweet, sweet warp-dust.

I think you should go full daemon world. Fluff wise, it's the only reason Draigo would be there.

That would be most impressive, with the Grey Knights just having deepstriked into the middle of hell itself.

The return of Baalsac and his ilk!!!

The beastman is my favourite, with his cigar there. He looks like he might say stuff like "got a light" just before he burns people.
