No idea what that is, but it needs more highlighting

What an excellent first post for the top of my 100th page lol! :-) that my friends is a Roly-Poly Pudding and it's my go to indulgent sweet when I want something tasty and.... well,... indulgent!

Pudding? I thought it was an omelet with the bacon inside and soaking in bacon grease

Congrats on 100 page , sounds delicious, now back to painting (whip cracking sound). Seems very appropriate here

At least give it some more weathering.

I vote for Demonettes.


I want some Roly Poly now.
Some pudding would be nice too fnar fnar.

Can I say again (after looking at it again) how truly stupendous the skin is on that last model? Jawdropping.

Thats amazing oh great Nerdy one, love the head its a really nice effect, I also really like the zebra skin cloth, came out really well.

If you can paint heads that well I cant wait to see the Daemonettes painted. Thinks of all the bare skin waiting for a lick.............of paint

Comp win, your best work so far and page 100! You're on a roll sir!

I love your work on the lord although I'm not sure I dig the zebra skin as a concept. Still, the painting is wonderful. You must have leveled up when I wasn't looking!

Ha, leveled up nah I reckon I just found an army that lends itself well to my particular style of painting them try me with something I don't really like and it'll be noob level soon enough

still waiting for my supplies to drop! hopefully tomorrow or even this arvo? and i'm also still looking for tentacles if anyone has some? either the Talos ones preferably or the Maulerfiend ones if someone's not needing them? I'm happy to pay whatever! (shrill voice of desperation there )

I did do something today but not my usual thing, I was fiddling around with my art stuff and it's been literally 12 years or so since I sat and did any sketching or painting, I thought i'd just rough up and see how my skills are not as good as i'd hoped but I just went with the flow and ended up drawing this which i'm going to gift to Gitsplitta as he's the most Mantis-ey guy I know and it may end up on the wall in his nerd room! anyway I hope you like it, my style is strange I know......

He can paint, model and draw! is there anything you can't do?

That's incredible Nerdy... I don't know what to say. Wall, t shirt, lunch box, anything I can get it on!

Thank you!

Yes.... I can't take good pics of my models :-) or lick my elbow!

That's alright Gits :-) glad you like him, I'll add some darker shading after having another look at it and send it with the other stuff! i'd be happy with wall but lunchbox could be cool!

Nice work and congratulations on the Mantis as well. I especially like the mottled head on the Lord, I may have to rip that idea off myself down the line.

Oh I have started a folder in my gallery page for my Slaanesh stuff if anyone would be so kind as to view & or comment? :-)

Happy 100 Damo! The purple spotted head is amazeballs!

Yes he's a triple threat. Damo can woo the boys for sure..... er women woo women

Also happy100 pages duder, and that picture you drew was friggin awesome sauce, you need to do smore that have a bit more Ork to them

Nice picture NF and congratulations on 100. Here's to the next 100.

Oh, indeed, welcome to the 100 club!

100 pages at last! Congrats Nerdy!

What a great setup for the 100th page, kudos!

The head looks amazing. I'm going to guess you didn't use the GW stippling brush for that (wish I hadn't bought that without seeing it). Any tips on how to achieve that nice mottled effect? Where is the head from?

Thanks guys! 100 pages and i don't feel old at all! lol! and you can quote me right now that there WILL be at least another 100 pages! I promise!

Bruticus the model is a Scibor one with the head already attached, to get the mottled look I washed it with purple ink and at different times during the drying i just dotted some more ink on to darken spots on his head, when I do my Demonettes I'll be using the effect on their exposed skin so I might try a little tute if you want?

!00 pages.......you a big hitter now sir. Congrats.

Love the skin. Oh and rolypoly pud mmmmmm...

Man 100 pages! is it a bit weird having felt like you only just started this blog like just over 2 years ago and having it hit 100 pages?

Edit: Also I subscribed to this blog back when you started it - Second post on your front page so I knew you had something worth while to keep an eye on

Wow... triple digits. Very impressive. Especially given the amazing quality of this bog! Congrats nerdy!

And he draws? I'm feeling more incompetent by the second!

Haha, seriously though that's great, I wish I had kept it up too. You should definitely get back into it.

Damo is a one-man talent powerhouse!

More practice today set myself an hour total to see what KingCracker would perhaps look like if he were actually an Ork?

I'm so gay for You Damo
for reals though that looks awesome wrapped in a tortilla of awesome gravy. Because tortillas are made of gravy apparently

LOL!
