I once did floral patterns on old Mutant Chronicle metal Mishima soldiers
That was also hard.

Nice work on those classic harlequins.

Blue to green works well on the weapons. Nice work.

Hey weets, just watching the news, everything ok your way?!

Hi graven - so many terrible things happen in the news I can't think what horrible news event might have you worried, but no I am just really really overworked and have had no time for painting. Holiday soon I hope!

AH I just got what you meant. All good here as my social housing tenement is made from solid concrete and has never been clad in anything flammable. Thanks for worrying though. Hope you live somewhere non-flamable too. I blame the tories.

^ Always Glad to hear, the weather has been frightful.

Aha! the flash-flooding? I have been nearly washed away a few times and I swear my workplace is due to be underwater before I get to retire...

Hope you are well too. Thanks!

I have been in desk clearing mode as I want to start my next project during holidays.

So here is what was cluttering the desk:

Some more evil suns boyz:



The last 8 of the harlequins:



Guardians:





I rushed the guardians a bit. I'll spruce them up when I manage to get more.

A deluge of classic Eldar. So nice to see.

Old school guardians look great. How did you get such a pure white? Layer after layer after layer, or do you have a secret technique?

Just like you say - a lot of layers!

edit - I didn't mean to reply to a seven-year-old post.

Good show Mrs.

One of those harli's looks like he's just stabbed his friend.

right in the armpit!

I like the consistent and repeating color scheme in the harlis. It makes them unified while each model is still unique.

@Kid_Kyoto thanks that's what I was going for.


Today I finished my Ork weirdboy, mech and runtherd:

Classic chainswords have never looked so snazzy.

Very nice work, Weets!

Really miss the good old days with the weird boys.

A cyb-ork!!! Very nice!

Nice work. Like that middle one, gives me ideas.

Crimson fist squad done:



I stuck my dark imperium death guard together today. Very cool figures!

Before I forget I'd better write down my formula for crimson fists blue - it was 2 parts space wolf grey to one part vallejo blue wash and one part armour wash, add another part each of blue and armour for shading and sky blue highlights.

Really great classic vibe to the PSM, nice work on the blending. Looking forward to seeing you do the CSM.

Nice work on the Crimson Fists. That blue is a lot more vivid than you usually see on them. Is that the same blue you used for the Ultramarines?

Lovely fists there.

Thanks all.

@joshinjapan no it's mostly space wolf grey, watered down with some blue wash and armour wash.

Good job on the red-hand gang, Weety'. Looking nice.

Nice blues, Weety. I hope my Fists come out looking as nice, if more yellow.

Death guard got primed... But I wasn't ready to commit to a scheme so I did some more desk clearance.

One last thing from the dark vengeance box, the helbrute:

Nice work on the 'brute weets. Very formidable and very Khorny.
