That is EPIC! love the fact it's Deathwatch and not Ultra! gives him such a different look and feel! the blue flame is perfect too! love it great work dude!

By far the best rendition of Guilliman I've ever seen dude. You've captured the grimdark feel very well without making him look straight up grimy, I tough act to balance but you did it brilliantly.

@nerdfest - thank you so much. It really was a fun one to work on. Lot less hassle considering the bloody trim he has than I thought it would be. The client's only instructions (and what sold me on accepting the job) were that he was to be a member of the deathwatch!! Really chuffed how the blue flame and steel sword came out - soooo sick of seeing a million red/orange flame swords, had to try something different. I swapped out the chaos marine on the base for a converted 'stealer. Seemed more in keeping with the DW theme

@I_F - cheers matey. Wanted him battle worn but not battered to bits. He is still a primarch after all - needed to try and retain some of that stature. He's winging his way to his forever ever home now.........was a tough one to send. lol

Looks good as always mate, and congrats on the deserved success you are enjoying with twitch; when the freebies start arriving, you know you are doing something right

Cheers James Yeah Twitch has been a lot of fun. Great community for mini painting and hobby there

And there's more!!! my 3rd 'mini' from Inq54 games/range - Brother Artmeis sculpted by Jes Goodwin. Loved working on this model. He stands about 70mm tall (the scale is 54mm is they totally went for the 'true scale' when scupting him. First time doing such a big freehand scull piece - think it worked well. Richard Gray was a big inspiration for thatand well bcs.....screw decals. Anyways here he is. No idea how many hours as after Eisenhorn took me in excess of 50 hours I vowed necer to count time again - lol Hope you like him guys

Another amazing piece Jan, you never cease to amaze. That freehand skull is phenomenal.

Got to jump on that freehand wagon! that is perfectly grim dark and looks fantastic the way it fades in, very exceptional skills on show! another awesome 'mini'

much thanks lads. yeah ....the skull......hehe. It was ....a lot of fun. it was nice letting go a bit and going for a differnt painting style. more akin to painting on a canvas than a mini. very happy how it came out. limited palette and being more fluid with strokes was kinda key. defintely gonna be doing a lot more big freeehand as have finally started work on my warhound titan Gonna try and make one of my streams per week 'Titan day' starting.......soonish lol

Another wee commission I've been working on nearing completion. Made an insert dio base for the model's ref base to clip into.

Amazing work Jan, I'm in awe of the black armour and as always how you do your leathers.

Lush as always dude

Especially the brown cloak

Oh...yes. Artemis is a work of art.

Good work on the Chaplain, and Artemis really turned out great!

Should comment more, sorry, but don't want the "bloody fantastic!" to loose their meaning. It is a real privilege to come to this blog and see such amazing works of art, inspires me, but also crushes a little piece of me, you are among the greats bud. Girlly is amazing and that skull shoulder pad is just the thing of dreams. Please never stop.

Still sloggin away on the bloater

Beautiful work Jan, especially on Artemis' skull.

Loving that bleached out theme you got going for it man, very nice choice.

Stunning again, the Bloat is inspiring and wonderful.

Your work on the bloat drone has a 'blanche' feel to it - is that just me?

I love the cloak on the chaplain!

Thank so much for all the kind comments guys. Soz I haven't been around much lately. Sooooo crazy busy. Hit 1500 followers over on my twitch channel the other day which was fantastic!!! So stoked. ( www.twitch.tv/januinevision - stop on by some time n say hi. Painting, chat n tunes is what we usually do )
The Chaplain and his display base is now done. Just gotta get some studio photos taken and I'll post them. The bloat drone is nearly done and have been working on his base below. Oh and started painting my first ever KDM mini!!!!

The Thief is looking swell.

That base is right proper nurgly dude, I'm absolutely loving it. I'm stoked to see that KDM coming together, it's so far removed from your usual models that I'm excited to see how you tackle it. From what I'm seeing so far it's coming along fantastically.

Blight drone, mucky display bases, and as cute thief,,,,,yowza.

Thanks so much guys. Soz it's been so long since I've popped in . Life has been a bit of a gak for us recently. Anyways - here's a few bits I've been working away on \.

painting Dr. Doom from Knight Models for a commission cleint. Lovely mini to paint, a complete arse to put together!!! He's getting there nicely though

Also started on Kimera's The Puppeteer for a giveaway on stream at the end of the month. Love this model so muhc. Finished up his case so yay progress!!

Beautiful start on Doom! That is a truly spectacular model and that shade of green is perfect. KM stuff is always a pain to assemble, I imagine the 75mm scale stuff will need a lot of pinning.

Doom is looking spectacular. The green and gold are working so well together.

Cheers guys. He's a 54mm sculpt. I used a milliput to fill out the core of the throne where the bits interlock (badly) and then greenstuff for gap fill and to rescukpt some extra cloak where the main body didnt reach the back of the throne properly. JB Weld for assmebly. The assmebly was a dickto do but once done the fun could start. Luckliy I reallylike painting cloth adn materials otherwiseit would have been a looooooooooooooooong paint....well, it was anyways but fun all the same!! Layering and glazing gave for a nice smooth but full effect. I'm using darkstar molten metals for all the metalwork; throne and armour. They are amazing - super shiny and really come out like metals rather than paint pretending to be metals. worth checkingout

Oppps nearly forgot - getting close to finishing my first KDM mini - 'The Thief'

That thief mini is looking amazing Jan, I'm loving your take on it. The colours are subdued but still lively and that umbrella still just puts me in awe. The way you did the base is a real treat too, loving the colour choices there.
