I like it, but I think that green's a bit too strong. Are those scibor pads too?

Yes these are from Scibor.
(The sword is from bloodletters though)

The heavy flamer dude looks really cool, I like the bright green sword its very different to the norm the head and shoulder pads look very nice as well, first time I've seen them on a mini..

And another one.

I am not too happy about the colours. The rest of my terminators may well end up in another colour.

Finished the demon prince !

I am pretty happy about if - it is my first big size model. C&C appreciated !

I like the DP. Nice choice of colors, looks propa mean!

Those red GK look fecking awesome man!

That's looking ace. Once again, you nail red! The skin looks good but can't really make out how the wings are; can we get a detail pic (maybe a reverse shot)?

Yeah, no, I don't know...
They look really ugly, so I'm hesitating.

Long overdue update - why do we have to work, again?

1 - test on a power weapon effet. I am pretty happy about it. It is very easy to come by and look good IMHO !


2 - A ravenwing speeder, for a friend who's a Deathwing fanatic, and does not believe in speeder support.

Love the pw, how did you achieve this "super-easy" effect? Also, nice weathering on the speeder.

This is great!

Thanks for the speeder, the new GW dry paints are almost like cheating. If I had that 15 years ago, my first Eldar would not look like a Playmobil...

For the PW supereasy effect :
1 - paint green
2 - paint the edge of the blade lighter green
3 - paint light green/white "lightning" stripes on the blade. Do not be too careful, they should wide enough for 4
4 - take your black micron pen and draw a black line in the white stripes.
(Yeah, micron pens are like cheating too, I know)

Now, need all the feedback you can give me on this demon prince. I like it, but somehow, something's awry.

I definetly like that deamon prince! The blue looks very good, nice and pale.... but the red is a bit too red maybe... it contrasts too strongly. I'd redo it as pale as the bue....

v2 - tell me what you think !

The photo is a bit darker, but another coat of wash on the skin got a lot more dark. :/

V2 red is better, but v1 blue is better! Sorry if that's Kind of awkward... Really like him regardless, and thanks for tip on dry paint - I'm am avid drybrush fan, but have yet to tread there.

I like v2 more... the darker blue looks really good. Now you really have to give him an awesome base!

Better lighting on that - you will be able to spot all flaws :
- blending on the horns is crap
- liquid green stuff does not work at all (look at the shoulder joints, I know have 2 lines instead of one...)
- the blue is absolutely not clean
- I completly failed the chaos cross I wanted to have in a spooky green glow.

Any advice on how to salvage the disaster ?

Wow! It has been quite a while since I last looked at this Blog. And I must say, great Work all around. I really like the one hour thousand sons. I wouldnt be able to do something this good in such a short time.
For the deamon princes: They both are great I prefer v2 most. And I think it would look much better if you leave the eyes this glowing yellow, it looks much creepier imho...

Currently working on this.

I am excited : first time I really paint a large mini before assembling it, and I really like the defiler model.

If you check page one, you can see a little addon I used on a stormraven (the GK firing out of the door). I may use this tip and have a wild CSM hanging from somewhere on the defiler.

That my friends, is overconfidence.



The beast from the back :


I'll show off in the showcase.

That red is seriously sharp! Very nice indeed, great pose too.

The Defiler is looking great Seb as Graven says its an excellent pose.

Damn, that is one badass defiler.

Excellent work, as per usual.
