Finally managed to grab some painting time at the weekend, and got them done... I honestly didn't think I'd make it this time, so that's a relief!
I've done the heroine in the same colours as my Stormcasts, so I can use her as a Freeguild General.













cheers,

Don't mind me; that just popped into me head.


I suppose we must have met after being taken by Yithians, allowing us to influence each other's preferences without being consciously aware of doing so. It's the most logical explanation.

Now showing The Fellowship of the Ring, along with some Dreadball Captains!

Here's the finished Ghost Rida. I originally had a go at making the flames eldritch green, but they just didn't read enough like fire, and I liked the more dramatic contrast of orange flame.

I got it done quicker than I expected. My World Eaters Master of Executions all Halloweenie like.

This is why I like entering online competitions; it lights a fire under you and gives you focus. That is a nice change of pace from just looking at the mountain of miniatures I need to work on and sobbing. Loudly.

I couldn’t roll out the big guns last month thanks to the blessings of Grandfather Nurgle, but I’m going to see if I can give this chibi mecha a spooky makeーover before we reach All Hallows’ Eve.

Might I have another 12 hours or so? I’m waiting for some paint to dry before I can do the final assembly, and the time difference means I need to sleep now.

From the depths of Gundam lore comes the menacing Dokoro Zaku.

This is an official figure of it, with my (rather less menacing) version for comparison.
