40k, Bad wolf, Conversion

Hello chaps, I can’t believe it has been almost a month since I last posted! Life has been pretty hectic with work, travel & studies so I’ve been on a real go-slow on the hobby these last weeks… What little time I have had has been spent on what is (I feel) by best project to date. L’s and G’s, I give to you…

And now for something completely different…

Conversion, Oldhammer

Hello chaps, a very quick post from me today – I just wanted to share some WIP shots to give an idea of what I’m up to at the moment. First up is this handsome chap:

2015-04-15 23.32.40

He’s based on Krom Dragongaze from Stormclaw, mixed up with bits from the Skullreaper/Wrathmonger kit… He’s shaping up nicely IMO – still vaguely Imperial looking, but barbarous and chaotic at the same time. The idea is to reimagine the Stormclaw dataslate as a wolf pack that is on the turn as that daemonic axe slowly warps his mind. I’ll be mulling over a decent backstory over the coming weeks, and this project will be a slow burner model-wise, but I think we’re off to a good start. You can expect a Blanchesque approach to the painting – comments welcome :-)

 

I also got a few of my Rogue Trader Pirates based up:

I’m just going to slowly paint my way through these guys on a per model basis – the aim here is to have fun and paint stuff that isn’t a uniform! Hopefully the end result will be a group of models that can be used in a number of ways – conscripts, gangers, cultists… even pirates!

Peace out Brothers – until next time.

40k, Conversion, Praetorian Imperial Guard

Happy Monday all, and I’m super-happy to introduce LtCdr Nimoy – liaison officer of the (star)fleet, seconded to the 215th. I’m well chuffed with this guy – the aim was to make something recognisably Spock-like & Treky, while still having a serviceable and recognisable MotF. I think I pulled it off reasonably well – there are a few bits I might revisit, (like the shonky writing on the shoulder pad!), but I’m very pleased with the face, armour & sword, and the overall ‘feel’ of the mini is just what I was hoping for.
