Lovey job on Cassus so far. Be careful with his chains! I broke them and had to glue back together... pain in the arse.

**Knightley**

@AoV - Gah, should have read your reply earlier, I did just that thing! the chain under his arm got damaged and a pain to fix!

Update: pretty much done, will take better pics shortly

**Januine**

Sweet job man. Work on the face is well tidy.

**Nevelon**

Amazing work. Love the way he turned out. Probably my favorite mini from that set.

I may have some bias there as an Ultramarine player though...

**Solar_lion**

I think you should just paint faces as commissions.. worth the money!

There are enough people who hate painting them, there is probably a good market. Shipping would be easy as well.

**WarbossDakka**

Bloody hell, you've outdone yourself here. He looks class! The silver highlights on the gold really work well.

**d00mspire**

Nice Chaplain. Now it just needs some field time!

**Knightley**

@Januine - Thanks man, I see your also working on a Cassius and I have you say yours looks just as good!

@Nev - Agreed, although I do like the White Scars Biker if only for the detail on the mini

@Solar - Heh, I've offered that to Gits once or twice (as he approached me) however if anyone is interested in me doing some heads I might consider it.

@WarbossDakka - Cheers, its a little trick I picked up painting the reliefs on my GK terminators and wanted him to look as equally as shiny

@d00m - You'll have to talk to Mad about that one

Update: Better pics taken (I hope)

**Camkierhi**

Fantastic work. Face is brilliant, all looking brilliant.

**WarbossDakka**

Being good at squiggles and faces just make people jealous.

Great work

**Knightley**

@Cam - Brilliant!

@WarbossDakka - Jealous, here I was hoping for inspired

Update: Getting a little bit more onto the DA and IF, then might just power through the individuals

**ZergSmasher**

Ooh, I'm definitely looking forward to how you tackle the Dark Angel guy!

**Knightley**

Should be a good one Zerg, DA used to be my main army when I was younger

Update: Worked on The raven Guard model!

**inmygravenimage**

Very cool, though you may need to change the blog to Crisp and (Dark) grey

**Gitsplitta**

Truly excellent Knightley. Love him from head-to-toe.

**WarbossDakka**

Liking the muted tones for the white. Doesn't take anything away from the model itself.

**Knightley**

@Graven - Haha, I thought about Crisp and tron at one point, and Crisp and metal at another, always come back to grey though

@Gits - Thanks!

@WarbossDakka - Bugger, its about to get a little brighter....

Update: Raven Guard done, quick pics followed by better pics

Better pics

**Gitsplitta**

I like that quite a bit. Nice work on the scrolls on the jump pack.

**ZergSmasher**

That Raven Guard guy looks amazing, way better than my own effort at painting that same miniature. How did you get the writing on the scrollwork to turn out so nice? Is it just a really tiny brush?

**WarbossDakka**

Actually, disregard the last comment I made. The white looks much better I've decided

Well done!

**Master Azalle**

The face on the chaplain... dear god knightly thats beautiful. I wish I LOOKED THAT GOOD IRL

**Mad..**

Looking stunning and at a good pace as well.

Loving your work as usual! Looking forward to seeing them in the flesh at our next game

I've started painting up the cult minis, so perhaps sometime in the future we can have a crack at the overkill game and see them all in action...

**evildrcheese**

Damn Knightley, the faces on your DW are off the hook!

EDC

**d00mspire**

Brilliant work! The scrolls on the Raven Guard guy are superb!

**Knightley**

@Gits - Thanks, I actually went pretty quick on the scrolls, means if I can replicate it I can do it quicker!

@Zerg - Yeah basically a tiny brush, also try not to write letters with curves, its easier to keep the lines small.

@WarbossDakka - Hahah cheers, noted for future.

@Azalle - You and me both man, you and me both.

@Mad - Yes! I am down for that for sure definitely keen on trying the new boardgame

@EDC - Ah you're far to kind, I just do what I can with the paints provided

@d00m - Thank you!

Update: On to the Blood Angel next

**WarbossDakka**

Liking the colour choice for the Chainsword. Looks very nice

**Knightley**

Thanks Warboss! finished pics below

Update: finished up the Blood Angel, took some phone pics (1st set) then did some with the normal camera (2nd set) Should be pretty quick to get the rest done I feel.

Normal Camera

**JustaerinAtTheWall**

Oh, well done! That red is very vibrant, and the weapon choic is simply perfect for a BA marine!

**evildrcheese**

As a Scion of Sanguineous, I highly approve of the BA Death Watch marine.
