Hey everyone.

So I thought I'd start a blog to show some of the Imperial guard, Space Marine, Chaos space marine and some other models I've finished over the last few years, some of which I will be sadly selling. I have some things that are WIP or PIP and will start a painting & modeling blog for them in time.

There will be more pictures up (hopefully better ones once i get the hang of the camera) up on my gallery. So anyway, I do hereby present my blog and hope you all enjoy, questions and C&C welcome within reason.

these are my shambling horde...

some converted mantic zombies

The corpse cart's zombies and body pile are great sorces for body parts of the same scale as cadians.

Rising zombies are cheap and easy to make, i really want to make another 10 or so of these for the new codex

More dead cadians.

"Watch out for those head-humpers Gordon."

These are all really fantastic and a nice nod to half life.

I must say my favorite are the guard coming out of the ground, they are just really well done.

Great work!

Got to echo everything Moss just said, really great stuff, and the Headcrab is ace.

Thank you both, I built them around siege of vraks part 3 for the servants of decay list.

So next up is a group shot of my Vostroyans, I really love the models but I stopped at one squad and opted to paint up a bunch of sentinels just to try to get that creamy-brown colour but without dry brushing. Also there is imperial information screen thing I made one weekend just for the hell of it.


All of these are waiting for a matt varnish





thanks for reading, enjoy
OneMan.

How did you make the oxidised colour on the Imperial Screen base?

Love the last one resembling Half Life

Very impressive work. I rarely see Vostroyans these days. I also love the headcrab zombie, nice nod to the Half Life universe.

Thanks everyone, I'd forgotten about this thread.

If only vostroyans were not prohibitively expensive for such beautifully ornate minis.

@ Imperial monkey: I can't remember exactly but I think I used a watered down mix of scaly green, ice blue applied in several layers to give the streaks over a base of scorched brown.

sorry for the delay but I hope that helps.
