Been working on a base for the Imperial Knight, using plasticard I-beams and GW barbed wire, painted to look rusted over.
A blog about my misadventures in learning to paint miniatures for my tabletop gaming hobby since 2010. I may never reach professional quality, but it'll be fun trying to do so.

Reclusiarch Incandael
Possibly my favorite GW model of all time, definitely one of Juan Diaz's best sculpts ever. It took me about 11 layers on the chest, skull, and other bone-colored parts. And in between each layer was a watered down glaze of sepia wash.
Remind me to never paint one of these again...
Been sitting on a friend's Reaver Titan for a while now. Work and lack of time has kept me from really working on it until recently. But I was able to get some work on it done.

Discworld Luggage
Painted for a dear friend who shares a love of Terry Pratchett's Discworld. So I painted the Luggage for her.
Forge World Reaver Titan
Starting in a buddy's reaver Titan that's been sitting in my closet way too long.
For the legs, I started with a black undercoat.
1. Sprayed a mix of Liche Purple and Codex gray in a mottled random pattern, then did a mix of Tallarn Flesh and Tausept Ochre in a mottled pattern.
2. Then airbrushed a random mottled pattern of blue, red and purple inks
3. Drybrushing with Boltgun Metal to give it a metallic sheen without losing its hue underneath

The Amaranthine - Complete
Finished this guy a while back but never got around to uploading photos. The LED's were purchased from this wonderful site and if you plan on using LED's I highly, highly, recommend this site (http://poweredplay.net/)
Since GW stopped selling the Freeblade transfer decals, I had to freehand the emblems and flowery swirls on the shoulders. I hate doing freehand.

Imperial Knight - The Amaranthine Freeblade
The Amaranth flower is a favorite of mine. It was once thought to grant immortality, but is now used as a cooking spice. Plus it's a name I'd love to give to my future daughter should I ever have kids.
Tomb Kings Liche Priest
My first attempt at painting gold NMM by hand. Not thrilled with the results but not entirely disappointed either. But it was definitely a learning experience for sure.

A project of pharaonic proportions.
My first finished Warhammer Fantasy model. Painted this guy up in about 20 mins; 10 mins for the drybrushing and 10 mins for the shield detailing and layering. Skeleton Warrior for my Tomb Kings army. Now another bajillion of them to go.

Crazy cows
Aside from my beloved Scions of Baal and Sons of Titan, I've recently been delving into the Minotaurs chapter. These guys are rather psychotic and a whole lot of fun to paint and play.
