blightking no.2

Hello guys blight king no2 is under way, a more heroic (if nurgle can be heroic?) pose this time atop a large rock
The painting will start soon. this time I plan to paint it in warmer putrid tones a good contrast and vibe to the previous cold dead blight king I named glom flyborn . I haven't chose a name for this one yet I will have to wait until the paint brings it to life to decide.
More very soon
peace.

The Blightking

Good day fellow brush lickers I recently bought a pack of putrid blightkings by GW, I must say it is a very nice kit with loads of options to make them how you wish. my only gripe was that some of the parts could be more interchangeable the sword and head I wanted  to use didn't fit with the torso etc but none the less a some cool miniatures and its nothing a little green stuff cant fix. given the popularity of the nurgle lord mini a few years ago I can see this kit being very popular. I don't think there is a painter alive that didn't paint or convert a version of that mini.

I made two minis from the box converted with a head and arm swap and a little green stuff, I plan to paint the one above with cool colours and a snow base and the seconed with the sword in warmer tones, in fact I have already started painting the one above and im really enjoying the painting, Im not trying to do the best cleanest paint job in the world just trying to have fun with the different pale tones and contrast but you will see in the next post when I take some pics.
more soon guys. peace

BAD BONES ! ! !

peace out hommies!

BAD MOON KILLA KAN

Hey guys as promised here are some more pics of my killa kan still need to take some more I think.
 I got a finalist with it at golden demon yesterday. hope you like comments welcome of course.

 

 

 

Back on track /KILLA KAN/ Golden demon 2014

Hello guys the blog is back on track after some computer trouble but things are now sorted out im happy again. sweeeeet!

I had some small luck with a finalist in vehicle category that im quite happy with, ive been working on a ork killa can for the last 2 months while the blog has been down. I decided to do something a little different with it instead of the standard yellow for bad moons I did it black and yellow. I was thinking like when you used to play street fighter 2 and your buddy would pick the same guy as you there would be an alternate version that was the general idea so black with yellow markings.
I also wanted to give the mini some character so instead of just standing lifeless on the base I tried to capture the crazy hap hazard nature of the orks it looks like its kind of drunk I guess ha ha. I will let you judge for yourself.

Over all there are good and bad things about warhammer fest/golden demon. the large room that golden demon was held in was well lit this year with a good amount of natural light and there were lots of mini seminars that any one could just sit and check out live painting tutorials and theory that was really cool on the bad side there was going up and down stairs again all day, this year on 3 floors booo! and NO medals for finalists in golden demon just a bit of paper?!? that sucked but generally if your only interested in painting there wasn't a lot to do. But I would still take this over nothing at all. lets be honest id still go if they held it in a bloody car park!!!

quick pick of the killa kan, haven't sorted them out yet will get straight on it.

more very soon guys. peace.

Damn computer ! ! !

Hey guys just a little post to let you know im having a few problems with my laptop so posting pics and proper posts are a bit of a problem at the moment
I will hopefully have this sorted soon and things back on track.
Keep up the good work guys back soon.
Peace.

Warmaster Horus finished

Hey guys ive finished the warmater horus mini from forgeworld, please vote on coolminiornot as it seams harder and harder for anyone to get even 50 votes anymore!!!!!!! lots of views but not votes?
Thanks for looking.
Peace.

 WARMASTER HORUS PLEASE VOTE HERE

WARMASTER HORUS

Hello guys i wanted to show you my latest work, Horus from forgeworld, I've waited many years for this mini and just had to have it when i first saw it. Its more a nostalgia thing i guess. Ok £60 for one mini is crazy but i am a fanboy of horus heresy and ive read many of the novels so it was a no brainer for me.
 I've nearly finished the mini just some areas to tidy up then on to the base, blasting through this one.

 hope you like it.

HIGH ELF PRINCE ON GRIFFIN FINISHED.

Hey guys the griffin is finally finished I've still got to edit the pics for coolmini etc but its done, i hope you like it. The mini has taken around 100 hours to finish and it was alot of fun to paint (apart from the wings) i wanted to try something a little different form my normal armor and tanks and go back to the old world of warhammer. i lernt a few things, mostly overcoming the issues with working on a large mini and just by painting a different style.
Next up will be horus that i got from forge world, well it should be in the post anytime now. comments on the griffin are most welcome.
peace.
Now on coolminiornot vote if you please  http://www.coolminiornot.com/355572?browseid=8840288 

Hello guys nearly finished now! just some more layers of water effect to add to the base and then i will try my best to take some good pictures.but here i guess are some preview pics for you. hope you like it ive busted my balls on this mini dont think ive ever put so much effort in to one mini. final pics for you soon!!!

peace out!

Griffins base!

Hello guys, just a quick few pics of the base for the griffin. Its been a long time since i made a large warhammer base its mostly been a sci-fi 40k vibe so its refreshing to do something along different lines, and good fun. I've used bark from a birch tree on the base, i used to use it alot for baseing. The rest of the rocks are smashed plaster bits and i also added a lost treasure chest with a few coins. There will be water fall and pool at the bottom around the chest so lots of areas of interest for the eye.
get some paint down on it very soon.
peace.

Feathers and Fur

Hello guys,
                 some more griffin for you. I have now pretty much finished painting on the griffin the cat part of the mini was a lot of fun to paint although a bit time consuming, i painted the fur buy first doing the blending in the normal way up to the midtone then kind of a wet stipple with an old brush up to the lighter colours. good fun!
I said last post that i would show you a photo of the base. (no i did not forget) i decided that the standard base that is supplied with the mini was a bit small so im going to make a bigger fancier base as the the wing span of the griffin is quite big and dwarfs the base and does not make for good composition. So will now have to start over with that but i will keep along the same theme of a waterfall forest style.

Here are the knightmare wings that drove me crazy,

click pics for bigger image. more soon with the base
peace out!!

High Elves!

Hey guys I've been working on the high elf prince on griffin miniature by GW its taking quite a while to paint but thats not at all bad as I'm going for quality on this mini as i love it so much. Progress is slow but man the wings were painfull to paint and drove me crazy the same thing over and over ....a feather...another feather... another bloody feather and so on, but they are done no pics though there not glued to the mini yet as they get in the way of the brush when painting. Once again I've forgotten to take a photo of the base to show you guys ...Doh! its a water fall themed base made with tree bark its cool so will remember next post to take a pic. will post some more soon I'm wanting to push on with this mini as I'm itching to get on with the base.
any comments are most welcome, hope you like it so far.
peace!
