For the lulz, here are all miniatures I have pictures of that I've painted, from oldest to newest. Perhaps this can show in retrospect that anyone can, with a lot of practice, to develop as a painter from utter crap to reaching those 9/10 ratings or even winning painting competitions. ( I only participated once ever, and won it. I paint for myself mostly. ) Or perhaps they can give inspiration to someone. Leaving out my current Deathguard army ( already got their own thread ) and individual shots of "completed army" -minis as there would be too many pictures. Most my miniatures don't have pictures or they've been lost, I think this is about 10% of all miniatures I've painted.

As funny and odd it is, both my oldest and newest miniatures that I have pictures of is Deathguard. This I think is an Obliterator conversion or a Lord, and utter crap. But atleast I tried:


Plaguemarine from the same army:


Eldar Farseer:


A Sentinel from the already deceased game, Confrontation. First attempt at NMM I guess:


Unmarked CSM sergeant/aspiring Champion with a Hefty(tm) cleaver:


A Lord from the same army, this guy had a ridicilous base ( huge pillar leaning forward on a small infantry base, counterbalanced by a rock ):


Corbulo:


Ork Boyz, dipped I recall:


First WM mini I got pictures of, dipped ManOWar:


Carnivean:


Dipped Ironecrons:


Khador:


Dipped Cryx 1:


Dipped Cryx 2:


Angels of Absolution Terminator:


Ironclad, NMM before the days I could blend well, done with layering:


Devastator:


Tyranid Hunter Scouts:


Horrors Tzeentch:


Daemon Prince Tzeentch:


Soul Grinder Tzeentch:


Spawn Tzeentch:



Vladimir Tzepesci:


Axer:


Dipped Iron Warrior Lord:


Lylyth & Striders:


Ravagore:

Beautiful stuff. All of it looks fantastic.

Love the winged chaos lord. Great sense of atmosphere.

That looks really sweet, I really like the Iron Warrior lord.
Keep it up!

I like how you basically levelled up Horrors for the Tzeentch models. Thats a cool idea.

Some very nice work, a wide range of styles and schemes.

You chaos stuff, O M G your chaos stuff is simply gorgeous. the vividness of your tzeentch is the best I've ever seen! And your Nurgle stuff is absolutely disgusting! In a sexy vile putrid way

Outstanding work mate. Theres some really great stuff here.

This gets a perfect 10 from me just because he has the word "DIE" written on him.

Haha indeed, receiving badass bonuses for poor painting is always nice.

Thanks for your comments.

absolutely wonderful work, what you define as "poor painting" is better what I can hope to achive at the moment. Thank you for showing your work.

Very clean work. Great job. I especially liked the dirtier, more gritty winged lord/emperor's champion conversion you did. Keep it up!

Awesome collection. I've seen your stuff here and there and happy to see it all together. Thanks for sharing!

You’re a true hobby butterfly, I live the diversity but all with high quality paint jobs. Good work!

I really like that soul grinder. Very neon paints, quite eye-catching and done wel

I'm a big fan of that Devastator Warmachine(?) model. The flames look nice. Hard to go wrong with flames.

Loe the Ultra scout using a Tyranid skull as a hat. How fun.

Thank you all.

The last 3 pictures are from within 6 months, all the rest date back 2-11 years. My first miniature I painted 16 years ago. Been quite a run!

Freaking AWESOME!!!!

The Space Marine scouts with the Tyranid head is very, very cool!

The one with giant cleaver is pretty cool.

some really nice work here... keep it up..

Love the Necrons - good color change. Very unique.

Love the Chaos Daemons - Really like the colorful choices you went with.

wow.... your army are really great. Wonderful paintjob. The colour are vivid the the shades are perfect

The Soulgrinder is a particular standout. The vivid pastels contrasted with the excellent black are spectacular.

Your 16 years are shown in the quality of your work. Really impressive and inspiring!
