SWAT team sculpts
These are some of my earliest scratch-built models, which I have finally got round to painting and basing. From what I can remember they were the 4th, 5th, 6th & 7th that I ever sculpted – going from left to right. I’ve now sculpted about thirty models in total. This set […]
Werebear
This rather nice model from Black Tree Design ticked two boxes – he has been sitting around for about a year half painted, so that’s a tick for finishing things off, and I’m also trying to collect models for Frostgrave (that’s one of the key projects for 2016), and there’s something very suitable […]
One of my resolutions for 2016 is to clear up some of the half finished models that have been hanging around in the painting tray, many for months. Another resolution is to try to avoiding starting anything that isn’t in the top three projects list (to be disclosed later).
These are the last eight of […]
Real life commitments interrupted me recently at the point when I had just mixed up a blob of green stuff, and I had to leave it unused. Rather than waste it, I tried putting it in the freezer. To my slight surprise, once I had warmed it back up the following day, it was perfectly […]
I have found that the best place to keep putty while you are sculpting is on the back of your thumbnail. This makes a very convenient surface for chopping off small bits and sticking them on. If you keep the putty on your work surface, then that isn’t as convenient, and if you hold it […]
The numbers of my cultist/redemptionist gang have risen to 24, so it’s really more of a small army now – I took some photos to get the full effect. I’ve posted most of these before, but here they are en masse. They are equipped with three flamers, two grenade launchers and the rest are equally […]
In preparation for Space Hulk I have dug out some hybrids, so I thought I’d photograph them for the site (a couple are a bit blurred – sorry about that but I couldn’t be bothered to set up again after I found out). One of the more recently painted has a 1999 date underneath – […]
First batch of troops are completed and based. Trouble with photographing the smaller scale figures is that they show up the painting errors in a way that you don’t really see on the table. I painted 4 packs of figures from Pendraken, which were the Kings African Rifles infantry, KAR Machine guns, Early German askaris […]
Another couple of recruits for the Redemptionist gang. These are converted Wargames Foundry flagellants.
The first was converted with a new mask and hood, and was given an auto pistol (from the Foundry Street Violence range).
The second just needed arming. A shotgun on his back and a grenade at his belt brought […]
APE01 – Techno ape – leader
The 8 models in my second batch have been painted and photographed, so here are the other 3 – the techno-apes. I really enjoyed doing the ape faces, and they’ve each come out with their own character. I found doing the fur much more difficult than I expected. […]
