Another cultist sculpt is finished. I was pleased with his ‘creeping along’ stance – I think I’m getting better at making the poses look more dynamic. Soon he will be going to be moulded by Lancer with another four cultists and some other more novel additions to my Warfactory range. If you have bought any […]
Wargames Foundry SWAT
These are SWAT from Wargames Foundry Street Violence range. They make versatile troops for all sorts of near-future scenarios. I’ve done them all with olive-green webbing, black body armour and then half in dark blue fatigues and the other half in urban camo. They look similar enough to use as part […]
I’m putting together the final parts of my Chainsaw Warrior-Space Hulk mashup and one of the key elements is the Meat Machine. For those who are not familiar with Games Workshop’s classic game, the Meat Machine was a two-wheeled cyborg zombie, which to a great extent defies categorisation. Like everything else in the game there’s […]
Since the first batch was cast, I’ve been beavering away on the next batch of sculpts, and here are some progress photos of them. From left to right, top to bottom, we have:
A hideous mutant demon thing. A cultist assassin An energy weapon toting variant of the spaceship crewman A rifle wielding cultist A […]
My 11 year old has been practising his sculpting and the nurgling on the right is his first scratch built model. It’s made entirely from green putty on a wire frame – he also painted it himself. If you look closely, you can see that it’s holding a loop of its own gut (ugh). The […]
I am pleased to announced that my sculpts have been spin cast for the very first time. Lancer Miniatures have made a mould from eight of my sculpts and they will be available from the Lancer Miniatures site in the next few days. Here are the first few to make it into lead and more […]
In addition to the power-armoured psychopaths, every sci-fi universe needs its ordinary Joes. A spaceport would be teeming with technicians, passengers, and people who just empty the bins, so I thought I’d sculpt a few and this is the first of them. He’s an engineer/spaceship ground crew waving a scanner or other such gizmo.
Trio of Snipers
Here’s one of my most recent purchases of a Games Workshop blister pack (2004). They already had a few leaves on their cloaks, but I added extra leaves, hanging bits of cloth and scrim for more of a proper sniper “ghillie” appearance. Their skin has been almost completely covered in green […]
Eight days after ordering them, my 3D printed weapons have arrived. I’ve painted them black, drybrushed them and taken photos. These are Frosted Ultra Detail from Shapeways. On the whole I’m pleased, they’ve come out the right size, the surface detail is good and they are slightly rough but acceptable. It will be interesting to […]
I have been using Sketchup to make some weapons for 3D printing. I have just sent two copies of this sprue for printing by Shapeways and I should have them back before the end of the month. I am using the highest resolution material, which is called Frosted Ultra Detail. The cheaper “White Strong and […]
