Nice Verv... love the commander with the classic "drive me closer so I can hit them with my sword" pose!

Here’s the first thing I’ve worked on a while...

In mellee we trust!

for we are not tau

You hear that? That’s the ghost signal. Binary in the air. Nobody knows what it means, only that it started after the war...

...

Analysis of Unionist rebel found in refuse dumping zone Septimine. Limbs missing, torso torn in half, 30-centimeter claw marks, signs of mauling, face cut in half, skull shattered, and heart absent. Half subject’s weapon was found thirty feet from the corpse, embedded in the ground and torn in half. Damage consistent with a large predator attack.

Was the weapon fired?

Weapon diagnostics report full discharge of forty lasrounds on full-auto.

Omnissiah’s name... there is no fauna left on the planet that can take that much damage and live. Something’s wrong, here.

Man that's dark. Lovely model and truly chilling fluff

Today in the Forge: we forget that October is month 10, not 8. Oops.

Here’s a WIP pic, of... Asurmen? What does this mean?

Eldar! Welcome to the dark side (or light side? I don't know, it's confusing)

Can't wait to see your take on these guys dude

In all the time I’ve spent making abominations, I have finally created something that I can conclusively say should not exist.





Praise Slaanesh.

Magnificent ! Praise Slaanesh and the tentacles !

...that's awesome

I use that word infrequently too. As in 'inspires awe'

That is a spectacular monstrosity! I love it.

Is that a counts-as Ironstrider Balistarius or Sydonian Dragoon? It looks pretty creepy, whatever it is!

Very cool and creative Verv. Nice work.

Thanks for the praise, I don’t know what came over me when I made it!
I imagine I’d use it as a Dragoon or Balistarius, those models are expensive...

Here’s my latest work - a Vanguard. I ought to do a photo comparison of my first Vanguard from the OP, and the latest ones...




Now, you may wonder “V, why do you take crappy dark photos, and only update your blog at around Late O’ Clock?”

Believe me. I wonder that too a lot

That cloak (and especially the little freehand cog) is so damn crisp not a chance in hell I could pull that off myself. Very impressive!

Oh, and I'm sure you were gifted with a vision from the omnissiah with your creation. Or, at least, a vision from something (possibly chaotic), but we won't mention that when the Magos comes asking...

Another WIP photo, this time of a side project for a friend. This model is brutal to paint.

I like it. Why is he brutal to paint? Odd angles with hard to reach details? Or the large amount of deathwatch filigree?

Both reasons apply. Also, freehand.

Still looks good watch master

Love the lightening effect on the glaive.

Holy Hannah that looks marvelous!

I feel kind of bad for not doing an update lately, so here's everything I've done lately.

The almost-finished watch master, the last photo I took of him before finishing the model and handing him back to the person I'm painting him for.


Howling Griffons, an exercise in masochism.


Deathwatch Blood Angel.


Working on another Knight.


Snow base experiments.



And a Terminator Sorceror.

I like your take on the Custode - much better than "all gold, all the time".

Some decent progress going on here; that Watch Master's blade is excellent in particular, makes me kinda envious when I look at my own lightning work!

Keep up the good work

I've proven an inability to focus on or finish one model, so here's a another not spam update while I work on sorting out the Deathwatch horde.



Beginning stages of the Vindicare:



Deathwatch Apothecary - I never really had trouble painting white, but this guy was quite difficult.



And a good pic of the bases I'm making for all of the Tzeentch-aligned models.


Tzeentch-aligned models in question:

looks great work there

oh and howling griffons are hobby self induced torture

Store doing kill-team? May as well have a unique force...

Very nice Verve... like the purple/blue shading on the metal with the purple cloth.

Aww yiss new tech-ganger is looking kickass

What's he got in his left hand? I can't tell...

Thanks for the name, I was struggling with that



It's a... peaceful mining dispute resolution device.

That's an excellent conversion Verv. Really looks like it should fit perfectly into the overall game theme.
