Hopefuly I will get to do more things like this in the future. The thing I would like to happen most is for someone to order some higher level stuff so I can post it on my page. Luckily It's all pretty cheap so my wish might even come true! Let me know what you think. Here are the pics:

Got a space wolf drop pod this time. Pretty uninteresting stuff, but it's something. I will probbably get to paint some thunderwolf cavalry, the client is waiting for 8th edition to drop so he can see if they're viable, so that should be more interesting.

This is a model that I did using wet blending instead of the usual glazing that I do. There are a few spots that have too thick paint due to me not being used to painting with that techniqe, and the yellow also did not turn out perfect. I do have to say that I do feel very proud despite this. If a model looks like this when I use out of my comfort zone techniqe so I can improve, how will a model look when it turns out perfect? Also I'm sorry there is only one pic, I had some trouble with the lighting.

Sorry for braging.

Khador juggernaut. I think this is my first attempt at shading. I had no idea how it was supposed to be done, so I used a combination of layering and drybrushing.

Couldn't get it inside a lightbox, so I had to use daylight, and its not very sunny out so these are the best pictures I could take. I didn't put too much effort into it because of the materials it is made of, but I am doing my best for the crew.

Painted the first Deadzone model donated to me by Denny. Trying out a new colour. Oh, and sorry about the unsymetrical radiation sign. I know I should have simply printed it, but my printer can't print colours and I was too lazy to walk across the street and have it printed there.

Though I am not happy with how a lot of things turned out, I am at least satisfied with the gun. I will probably move him to a base that "reflects " what's painted on the base a little better and use this one as terrain. Shoutout to Denny, who donated this model to me, along with many others. I will try to do him justice with the next paintjob.

Hey,
I've just watched all your works presented here, and I must say, you did astonishing progress, really. It's nice to see it from such retrospect view - from heavily washed blob, to ambitious osl/nmm. My only advice to you is to think more of light point in reflective materials, and choosing of point of view of your work to set it up. I hope you will understand me...
Anyway, keep up the good work, cheers from Poland

Thank you for the compliment. She turned out as well as I could have possibly hoped, but soon I'll try something even more ambitious. In the meantime here's a commission I finished yesterday. Someone liked the Yu Jing models I did in the past and wanted a few more done in the same style.

I figured a colourful and atmosferic diorama would give me the best chance of winning the massivevoodoo painting challenge of 2020, and this is what I came up with. Since the model itself is very small and simple I concluded shifting the focus away from the austronaut himself and onto his soroundings would be the smart move. So, I decided to put him on a very large diorama to emphasise how small he is compared to the vastness of space, I placed him on planet covered with glass to show it's beauty. Lastly, I gave him something to wave at - himself, again to show how alone he is.
