Thanks a lot explains why it fits so well with my Followers of Nurgle!

Hey Paradigm, what do you think of something like earth, wind, fire and mud as a topic for next month
Something about elements or so...

K D

Not a bad idea, there's plenty of scope and lots of applicable minis for something like that. I'll add it to the list!

Would Tau battlesuits be scary enough?

Yep, to your average guardsman facing one is a pretty frightening idea!

Ok then!

Proof:



And Drones:

A couple of wip shots of my obliterator, hopefully I'll get finished this month. Lol. I'm going for the partially flayed look on the skin

Can I throw my hat in the ring here?

I'd like to submit my entry if it meets the criteria:



This guy is moderately terrifying to most things I can think of (He has the Fear rule, anyway)

Thanks and I look forward to participating in this challenge.

Take it easy.

Done! Took much longer than usual to paint.

A tiny part of me hates you quite a bit.


Looks good though!

I don't actually paint that quickly. When I paint something I lock myself in a room with no food until the model is finished. That Crisis Suit took about 3 hours of work.

And thanks! It's good to know you like it!

here is my WIP of some spirit hosts

A couple wip shots. Just needs a wash then the fun begins.

can't seem to fix my phtos at the moment so sorry for that.

Here's a WIP of my Hive Tyrant. Haven't done much with the wings yet - they are magnetized, so they are off for painting. Almost done with the basecoats. Got some more black bits to detail on his chest and around his body in places. Then i'll move on to the highlighting or start on the wings.

WiPs of the boys. Red armour is pretty much done the now. Just needs a toning wash and that'll be that part done. School is closed till next Monday (we think) and the wife is off to Oz for 10 days tomoro so looks like painting season is open!!!!
Photos are a bit overexposed - sodding iPad but you get the idea where they're going

Just got to model some boots on my Stormfiends then I can start painting, I'll try to get a WIP on my blog at some point today.

Liking the entries so far!

I know it´s just the 9th of the month, but I had al lot of time to do this monster.
So, this one is in the books.

His name is Grimteef Morsnik, leader of a big bunch of Bad Moons.
He is never to busy to crush some skulls, no matter whose skull it is.
Orks, Marines, Chaos ... he doesn´t care as long as he can crush something.
He has been in a lot of battles against all kinds of enemies.
He lost his left arm while he fought some Nids but killed some more with his right.
His jaw was replaced after his got chopped off by another Warboss, who tried to take over Grimteefs place.

This has been one hell of a fun to build and to paint.

I´m looking forward to see a lot more super fantastic minies this month.

Thanks to Paradigm for the whole work you put into these projects.

Good luck to everyone!!!

Wow, that's a mighty good mini! As I said to another entrant last month, I applaud anyone who can just 'get' that natural look to orky conversions and paint jobs!

Thanks a lot!
As I wrote, it was a lot of fun to do this guy.

Kudos, Kustomer D! That is one scary Ork! One of the better Ork models I've seen, in fact. Awesome job!

Amazing job Kustomer D!

Kustomer, you have my vote.

Bloody love it!!!!! Cracking work there fella

Definitely says " WAAAAAGHHH!!!" to me lol. That's one badass Ork Kustomer D

Thanks man! So far the wings themselves, the addition to the model not the paint scheme, have been getting mixed reviews.

Thank you guys.
I really appreciate your comments.

Do the feathery bits come with the kit? They look like old school Ravenwing bits...

My hat is now officially in the ring:


Broodlord vs Blood Angel. The question is, which is the bigger monster?

And here's where we're up to last night:







Going for a cleaner/neater job on these than my usual 40k fare, we'll see how that goes! There will also be a diorama base for the two, probably a starship interior.

I'll get it on this when I've raided my box of unpainted models and chosen something suitably scary. I reckon a Chaos Terminator Lord is pretty monstrous...

I believe my old clunker is a Mist or Ghost dragon, one of the old box sets, so I'm researching how to do an ethereal effect this afternoon.
Got my new airbrush compressor rigged up for the base coats, but I'm not skilled enough to do much beyond that without brushes.
Fun afternoon!
