So, some freehand, with few notes.

Really digging those Blood Angels and the glow effect on the Storm Trooper is very well done indeed.

Thanks, yeah, had a lot of fun with both of those. I'm hoping to have the time to complete the storm trooper unit soon...

Also, another land raider:

Continuing the Astral Claws (notes)...

Fantastic work! I really like your Astral Claws

Thanks! Yeah, ever since getting back into 40k, they've been my slow-growing pet project...

So, it's been a while, but beginning a 30k Salamanders set. (notes)

So, finished the Firedrake unit (a few notes):

Finally got some more space hulk guys done (notes)

A display base for someone "special" (notes)

One last thousand son (link).
 
The guy whose TSons army I painted on the first page of this thread needed to sell the army to cover medical expenses, and I really felt for him, having had scary medical/financial stuff, so I painted this guy up for him as a surprise during a recent trade.

So, up next, Vulkan, the first primarch I've painted. (notes)

So, some more creepypasta freehand (notes):

So, some time back I did a test for these guys, but now they're up to a playable squad. (A few notes, and their first mini-battle report...)

Oh freaky stuff.

lol those creepy pasta ones.

So, back to my Astral Claws, with some assault terminators (notes):

My Night Lords... erm... Lord. (some notes)

So, this was quite the project- basically covered in textured freehand, though I think my favorite parts were the fire and crown. (Notes)

So, a hybrid razorback this time (notes)

Back to Space Hulk! (notes)

My Night Lords now ride in (kinda' flimsy) style (notes):

That rhino is pretty much the perfect CSM rhino. Not overly spiky to the point of silliness.

Wow, thanks

Yeah, I guess I find most chaos tanks way too spiky, and with Night Lords being relatively understated, there was no reason to go the demonic direction, so I tried for subtle.

Next up, my test Lamenter to join the Badab Buddies Maelstrom Warders (notes):

I think your rhino/razorback is great. Just the right colours and shading. To be honest, I think your terminators are a touch too dark.

How did you do the yellow for your Lamenter? My next plan is to try a Cassandora wash, off white highlights then a Lamenters glaze.

Thanks! The terminators are a bit drak, though I also pushed the contrast too far in that pic.

On the yellow, bubonic brown or w/e it's called now, with a warm brown. Repeat, more brown, for the shade. Straight Bubonic brown to bring back the midtone. bubonic and a thin yellow for the highlights. Straight yellow for the edges.

And my Astral Claws finally get some wheels (notes)

Obliterators with some little conversions (notes)

Back to salamanders (notes)

I thought the storm talon was derpy as hell, so, my conversion. (Notes)

Filling out the Flamers with the full unit (notes)
