Woah!
Long time no see, I guess...
Well, here's my latest stuff:
A few Chaos Marines
Spoiler:
And a whole lotta Guard pics (6 men so far ^^):
Spoiler:
Sarge
Heavy Weapons
Private cigarette (and by "cigarette" I refer to his cigarette!)
Private Stranger - who actually was the first of these miniatures I did and inspired me to continue. His name is inspired from Heinlein's "Stranger In a Strange Land".
Private Kneel here
And a group shot.
Currently working on:
4 more Guardsmen, one of them with a grenade launcher.
4 more Chaos Marines, including the Champion.
2 more Ultramarine Terminators - including an AssCan. :-D

@gman1401:
:-D
Thanks, man!
I wanted them to be different to all the other shiny and colourful guardsmen out there - and I can't paint camouflage for my life ^^
@ GamingKeefer:
Sure.
For Drys' base I used a mixture of baking soda and GW's PVA glue somewhere around 60/40, a little bit of water and a drop of Skull White. :-)
The result should be somewhat snot-like; if it tends to drop from your tools, it's too moist.

You flesh tones & how well the faces are painted are pretty awesome - great work.
Thanks for sharing
Check out my gallery here Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!

@ Tortured-Robot:
The gloves? Why, thank you ^^
I didn't consider the gloves to be anything but a makeshift solution... You know, it's hardly been much work.

Oh, by the way, I finished another Space Marine.
This is Honoratus Zenas, which is the equivalent of a sergeant in the chapter of the Brothers of Salvation.
Painted this one for a duel, and really do hope you like him. If you do, just click the image and vote on CMON. :-)

@ Elmir:
Thank you!
I actually did a tutorial already, but I guess this one could do with an update, too.
@ Joske De Veteraan:
Painting greys... well, let's say they're quite easy to do and have a range of colours you can actually match together. As opposed to reds. ^^
Thank you, friend!

Hi folks, another piece I completed today.
Hope you like 'em!
Sculpted the hands and the wounds myself. Was quite an effort and sure isn't perfect, but I assume it's the best greenstuffing I did so far.
C&C greatly appreciated!
Wow, that's a true personification of Chaos. His almost nonchalant expression as he's ripping a poor man's head from his body, I don't think I've seen a better Chaos model ever! :O
@ Imperial Monkey: Yeah, you're right - but I swear this is due to the camera - such a great picture quality and it turns the faces into pulp... I'll take a shot with Old Faithful next sunday.
Meanwhile I present to you (each and everyone who cares to read this topic ) the fifth and last of my terminator squad. Hope you like 'em. ^^
This time, the purity seals even have something like a meaning - if read in the right order, they spell the word "Mozes", a friend of mine whom I promised to include his name in my army.
Here are all five letters more or less properly aligned:
Also, good news concerning the bases: another friend of mine and I have agreed to do a battle of the bases, meaning I will give my entire army bases soon. Looking forward? Well, I'm not, to be honest - this is going to be an awful lot of work and even danger xD
