That Mephiston model looks incredible. It has lots of familiarity with the official model but deal with all the flaws of GWs own model.
Mephiston has gone beyond being a normal space marine in a way this model capture perfectly.
Great work

Just a quick Drednought done. not much to this one, a few extra bits

Nicely done. The modified shin guard actually make it look much less squat and dumpy. Good improvement on the original model!

It's meant to look squat and dumpy ;P I think it looks good, but a tad top-heavy for my liking. The legs don't look like they'd be able to support the sarcophagus, but I guess that's just the lack of shinpads talking xD Other than that, I love the conversion, it's not much but it still makes the model look cool without going overboard like the Furioso :3 Well done

I like the Jazz hand on the first Wraith knight

This dreadnought I found in my bits draw. I must have bought it to use the parts for some thing else. I think it was for a scratch built hellbrute. I must have used the shin guards coz that's the only bits that were missing. I needed something on the legs and I don't have many SM bits having only just started. So it was really the BA shoulder pads that would make it look more BA or make some thing out of plastic card.

1st time I've tried NMM on armour and the 2nd time I've tried it ever.
did the helmet and right shoulder and ropes in NMM and while, over all its a bit dark I think it came out nice.
not sure about highlighting the red armour with white, maybe yellow would be better.

would be nice to get some feedback

Death Company test model
enjoy
and have a happy Holiday

My Terminator captain with Teeth of terra.
and a combat squad of Death company

Pretty frightening looking group there. Really like the terminator cappy... nice work on the crux.

Nice! really nice, I love the alternate head on that DC you did it looks suitably slack and deranged, not quite with the program so to speak ;-) and the Terminator captain again is a really nice job, very clever use of parts and the addition to the top of the armour flows well and really makes him stand out. Not to mention your painting appears bloody good too and very smooth! pity the pics just aren't a bit better.

well done and I'll keep my eyes peeled for more from you!

Your vision of the Blood Angels is fantastic! Very dark and even a bit scary. Awesomeness.

Those eldar are fantastic!

I love the crimson hunter and wraith units especially.

Subbed!

Cheers guys. All I have is my camera phone. I do my best with lighting but I wish I had some thing better because the photo misses a load of detail and messes with the colours a bit. I run it through Gimp2 but there's only so much I can do to it.

The Death Company squad really looks the part, excellent painting on both the Eldar and Angels.

That terminator captain is awesome! Very fearsome model. Just wish he had a better looking storm bolter and that I think the Teeth of Terra would look better in black, other than that I have nothing to say except praise.

I like your Mephiston very much too.

finished unit of Rangers

I sent you a PM, but I'm not sure you'll get it so: where do the cloaks of those rangers come from? Did you sculpt them?

I got it
cloaks are from HE shadow warriors

I didn't want the Teeth of Terra to look like it belonged to the blood Angels, they'll have loads of black chainswords and the teeth are black so I plumped for gold. tbh I'm not overly wowed by it ether. I didn't want to buy something and didn't have a massive selection of SM bits. the whole model was a sort of kill some time project really.

My first Drop Pod
for a cheap disposable unit it takes a lot of painting

Very nice work!

c&c welcome as I'm still new at trying NMM

Those are amazing VK. The highlights on the armor, blending on the wing tips... striking sword blades really make them jump right off the screen.

thank you

VonKessler, your Iyanden army is amazing! May I ask you about yellow recipe please?

Goodness me those are pretty. Love the swords, they're really eye-catching.

Dang they look great.

thanks all and the yellow is nothing special. Yrriel yellow with a heavy Casandora yellow shade and normally 3 layers of highlight (yellow/white mix)
