for thses guys, i had stripped the metal weapons, and used some assault marine plastics i had laying around, half painted. the paint was a little thick in some areas, but i think they came out well enough considering. i also experimented with a new way of doing bone using graveyard earth as a basecoat, then bleached bone, then skull white. i am immensely pleased with the outcome. i just have to remember to keep my paints thin to keep the smooth coat.

[heavy bolters]




[plasma cannon]

my next erm... interim project is some battlefleet gothic imperial cruisers, a chaos battleship, and hopefully finishing up the four dozen chaos or so i've got laying around, half completed.

Once again, you are the AWESOME.

Now, a question. Do you have the album "Oblivion" released by Warhammer Records about 12 years ago? It featured Brian May, IIRC.

I just dug out my old space marines, and they are alot smaller than I remember... about an inch tall at the most. Is that the standard size?

How big are those dreadnaughts?

yeah, so how about some of those pictures i've been promising for ages...

[missile launchers] two of three shown


[multimelta] i'm rather proud of the way the cables came out. which reminds me to pick up some genuine snakebite leather, rather than mixing it every time i need it.


[command squad] yeah, these guys. i still need to add static grass to everyone, but they've seen action since being "finished"

Nice job SB. I was a slightly worse painter than you, but my brother was top notch (he had an orc army).

I used to love this game when it first came out, but the 2nd edition rules ruined it IMHO. The army lists I hated and the miniatures, while cool looking, lost the minimalist aesthetic of the original ones. I kept my first edition rules for years and my brother and I would still play the odd game against each other.

When they changed the Eldar to include the silly and overpowered Aspect Warriors, I gave up playing in the community. That's about the same time that White Dwarf became a load of ****.

Nevertheless, on the subject of GW I still think that the original Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is the best roleplaying game ever created. It was simple, yet incredibly flexible and didn't lend itself to power gaming in the way that AD&D did.

[deathwing terminator sergeant]






the fabled new plastic terminators, with a little help from forgeworld. they're a little harder to put together than i thought it would be. cleaning up the mold lines was an express pain in the ass. also, the heads were attatched to the sprues in a rather curious spot as well. thank goodness a halfway decent paint job does well to cover those up.

Those are excellent.

When I was living in England the local GW branch had some stuff from the Golden Demon awards, and your work is very close to that standard.

You ever try some of their LOTR miniatures? They used to have some really good ones back in the 80s, but the new ones aren't too bad.

I miss the 80s Citadel stuff. They had many amusing miniature. My favourite was the scrollbearer. This poor wizard's apprentice whose face was obscured by the huge pile of scrolls he was carrying.

thanks for the flattery, agathon, but my painting is nowhere near GD standards. what was nice about the early citadel era was that there was a lot of creativity. what was bad was that most armies weren't as unified as they are now with their imagery.
