I recently build this gashapon capsule figure. It is snap-fit, and the parts can be twisted off the sprue, but some of the parts were a little difficult to force into position. still, the knee and elbow joints are moulded as a single articulated component on the sprue, which is impressive.



I'm repainting it for the Dakka Painting Challenge Round 106. Work in progress....

And finished.



I enjoyed this one much more than those necrons. The eyes should have been larger and lower down, but for a first attempt at painting both anime-style eyes and an 'anthro' style face, I think they're not too bad. A bit thousand-yard-stare though. The base was covered with artist's texture paste and covered with model railway ground cover. The effect is pretty good.

Nice work! Looks like she's ready to buckle some swashes - repaint is definitely a significant improvement, love the decision to roll the shirt colour down the sleeves. Agreed that the base effect is nice and rustic!

Thanks for the positive feedback. The base was a surprise success!

I've recently begun painting some of the miniatures from Steamforged Games' Resident Evil 2 boardgame. I was surprised by just how small they are. They're not short, an average male figure is about 30mm to the eyes, but they are quite realistically proportioned and therefore much more delicate than contemporary Citadel miniatures. Their integral bases are about 17mm wide.



A comparison with a Necron.


I've entered this pair into the February round of the Dakkadakka Painting Challenge. Time to break out the tiny brushes!

Two of the zombies finished.



The female zombie is painted to look like her promotional art.

For the 109th round of the Dakka Painting Challenge I'm entering a repaint of a gashapon figure from the Warhammer 40,000 Chibi Figures Vol. 2 line. This is a chibi version of the miniature made for the 25th anniversary of Warhammer 40,000, which was based on the central marine figure from the original Rogue Trader cover art.



The chibi figure is mirrored compared to the other depictions, and has many small differences, but it is recognisably the same marine. In the original art the spike on the ork's helmet is sticking out of the bottom of the power fist, so I added that to the figure as well as one of the cables which link the pistol to the marine's armour.
