Yeah, GK do look good in purple. Loving the conversion work on the dreadknight (pose + enclosed pilot) as well as the nemesis greatsword carried on top of the land raider.
Everything looks phenomenal. I'm especially fond of the posing on the Dreadknight. My only complaint is I think Angron's skin tone looks a bit unnatural.
Currently im working on 5 sternguards and a drop pod to add to my clients BA army!
This weekend he will coming to pick them up and he will bring the full force i painted so far for him so i can take some pictures of the army in its full glory!
Stay tuned!
some very cool stuff. But I guess a little nit picking is in order on Angron, the paint is excellent, however Angron had the red "Spike" tattoos on his face, and Deathguard had a green center piece on their shoulderpads
I love the Dreadknights and the purple you used, much different from the typical red and silver. Posing is perfect and I love the dirt tracking from the one sliding to a stop on his foot. Your lettering is top notch. I just started on some free hand work with a few infinity minis I painted.
the tracks on the GKLR are too muddy imo but im loving the BALR really like the osl on the lights which colors did you use for the green light and what order did you use?
those dreadknights look great. I normally don't care for the model, but your choice of pose and paint make them look awesome here. loving all the lettering work you've done. any tips on how to do it? it's something I struggle with.
Sorry to criticize beautiful work. that DreadKnight looks like it's cranking 80mph instead of being a lumbering war-machine. I found it comical, I just cant see it moving like that.
sorry mate, I do appreciate the amount of work you put in though!
I'm a big fan of how dynamic your grey night dreadknights are arranged. They look fantastic. So much better than them just standing there looking lame. Your Angron is excellent is excellent as well. Cheers.
These truly are amazing! But the thing that caught me the most was your lighting. (headlights eyes ect) how did you do it? that is something i would love to apply to my grey knights! If you would want to share any secrets as to how you did that please do so!
Well here are some pictures of what i painted this week!

Here is todays work!
I must say this sorcerer was a pain in the ass to paint lol so many little details and mutated skin...
But im happy with how he turned out and so does the client!
It's a long time since i did an update so here comes a big one!!
Ultramarines ive been working on for a client:
As you can see in the last picture i need some more marines to paint to complete this company deadline is 4th of January so stay tuned for update pics of this huge army!
Here the last Grey knight strike squad that was part of the army i sold.
The army is currently on the post to Australia.
And last commission update is a unit of plague marines for a chaos client:
Your EC are simply beautiful models! an amazingly clean and well executed force so far and i wait eagerly to see more of your painting, your style is really lovely I could gaze at those pics for hours!
Here are the pictures of the Ultra marine company i have done in the last 1,5 months:
This army was already painted for about 30/40% and i have finished it for the client.
Everything needed to be painted in the same style as the models that were already done.
It was a hell of a job to paint this and i think i had enough of blue for now
Great work as usual! Battle damage on the predator is perfect and the warjack thing on the Scibor bear is pure genius!
I have to be honest though and say that the Ultramarines don't work well with that basic paintjob. I understand that you were probably commissioned to do them like that but all your washes seem to have run and the blue surfaces are incredibly flat. I would not mention this normally but I know you are a fantastic painter and that all you really need to do is sponge on a bit of damage to the vehicles to make them so much better.
Nope, Here is what i did:
I painted the parts with shining gold then highlighted with a mix of mithril silver and camo green about 70/30.
Then washed with sepia wash and then a new higlight of about 90/10 mix mithril silver camo green.
A client of mine asked me if i could paint a jack the same way as 2 models he already had that were painted by Karol Rudyk.
So i did my best to come as close as possible!
The Jack in the middle is my work the Witch and her jack are painted by Karol Rudyk.
Love 'em both [as I do all of your work]. Is that verdigris on the red armour? If it is that's really clever, not seen that before. If it isn't it still looks great.
i'm impressed by your work! very nice paintjobs, and i really like the customising of standard gw models.
but one question, how do you do it, painting that much models so fast while looking so great If i want my models to look cool, it takes forever to finish even one squad..
Good news! My work will be shown in the November edition of the White Dwarf!
Then on to some commission work:
Both of the clients that bought my Emperors children ordered some reinforcements!
Here are the pictures of the finished work:
My... precious... As the client I can't recommend Peter at Scar's Miniature Madness enough. He is an absolute genius and charges very competitive rates for such amazing quality. Plus, he's also a really nice bloke!
Now on to some commission work i just finished!
This was a rather special project for me.
Client got this army painted by the famous Karol Rudyk but asked me if i could paint some extra additions for the army in the same style.
I'm not nearly as good as Karol but i think i did a pretty decent job on these to blend them in with the rest.
In the back of the first 2 pictures you can see the models painted by Karol.
Awesome marines! I dont play fantasy, so I dont know what the chariots should look like but the paint job is great! I would love to know if you preshading or blending on larger models like a storm eagle/titan?
Hello, I just wanted to stop by and say that everything on this thread is full of win - the Emperor's Children would make Fulgrim proud! Inspirational - keep up the fantastic work
I love the clean colours you have used (even when the vehicle is weathered).The whole thread has been a joy to scroll through and i leave feeling inspired and shamed by your skill.
This stuff is amazing! Especially love your World Eaters stuff and the airbrush work throughout is incredible! Can't believe I only just found this thread...
Ok... a few pages back what is all that tau/imperium stuff.... Is that thing used as a riptide, a titan, or something i dont know about? Is this your own project or something that someone asked you to do?
And these pictures have the coolest paint jobs i have ever seen. Beautiful.
Awesome work Scar Any chance of a closer look at the magnetized parts and how you did it? I'd like to do that with mine but I don't really know where to start with it
Ill shoot some group shot tonight at my local club with all the models together!
The army will be bigger, client is already sending me the next batch so stay tuned!
Wow, these dwarves look absolutely amazing, it is going to be some lucky person who gets to won these bad boys!!
I love how the gems & runes glow.
Out of curiosity, do you happen to know how the Great hammer heads, and Great axe heads would match up size-wise to 40K thunderhammers and power weapons?
And also the Ironbreaker shields compared to Storm shields?
Thank you for making my day with seeing your mad painting skills, you never fail to impress.
That Dwarf is immense... Immense as in totally awesome!
Where did you come across this amazing model?
I mean the model is amazing, but your paintwork just makes him come alive!!
This may sound a bit corny, but I really loe seeing the work you do.. the differnt colours and styles.. It helps give me ideas and pushes me to try and improve my painting.
I loev the purple on the dwarves as it is such an unusual colour to see used on them, generally it is more earthy browns, greens etc, bt the purple really works.
stunning and inspiring work!! I am not a huge fantasy fan, but the lizard people and monsters are really fantastic. Definately look forward to seeing more of your work!
Today i finished the Dwarf army!
Here are some pictures of all the finished units:
This army is painted in basic, medium and high quality tabletop levels.
Incoming Space wolves army commission!
This is a half painted army done by another studio who disappeared into thin air with my clients money and half of his models.
I think it is really sad these things happen and thank my client for his trust in my studio.
Now onto some pictures!
Some finished Space Wolfs!
Im pretty excited about this commission, coming up the next couple of weeks a Knight lancer from FW a Falchion and tons of marines!
Its Shadow grey mixed with white for highlights
The ''gold'' is done with VGC Beasty Brown > Beasty Brown with VGC Bronzed Flesh > Pure Bronzed Flesh > Bronzed Flesh with White for final highlight.
For the red i used VMA Fire Red and highlights mixed with White in there.
Hope that helps!
Hi Everyone!
In between all the fantasy project i have atm i have managed to paint these 5 drop pods for a client.
They needed to match his current crimson fist army.
This stuff is amazing! Especially love your World Eaters stuff and the airbrush work throughout is incredible! Can't believe I only just found this thread...
