Diablo 3 Collector's Edition Head

Since we're at the dawn of the end of the world, I've decided to shake things up a bit on the blog and instead of pumping out the usual chaos abominations, put up something from a completely different universe.

Imperial bastion

For a while now, I've been wanting to try the new fortification system, as well as to add some meaningful terrain to our weekly matches so one thing led to another and I got myself a bastion :)

Nurgle Vindicator

I know some of you expected Chosen to be next in line, but I've recently bought a vindicator and just couldn't resist and ended up pushing it to the front of my schedule.

Nurgle Hellbrute

I hereby present you yet another mischievous creature spawned at the everpumping Rotforge :) After having finished the cultists, I set myself a goal to paint this guy up within 3 evenings, to make deadline before Pandas hit tonight. It's nice to set and achieve goals. I should definitely do this more often to speed up my painting projects.

 

Chaos Cultists

Once again, I've fallen victim to the "painting a whole unit at once" stigma so it took a long while to complete but it's finally done and here is the end result:

Urban barricades

In preparation for building a full-scale 6' X 4' table, I've decided to paint up some terrain, but such terrain that could also be easily transported outside of my lair and one, that would be very universal. I've always liked the look of the urban barricades so the choice was obvious. Here we go!

Nurgle obliterators

Since the nurgle taint hasn't been all that present lately, with today's entry I'm going back to plagueville to bring you...nurgle obliterators! Check out the rest of the post to read the lenghty WIP description and find out why these guys are so special to me.

Khorne terminators

New guys are done. This time another addition to my khorne detachment - the terminators!

Slaanesh Daemon Prince

Having been freed from the shackles of the Lord of Terror, I bring you: Slaanesh Daemon Prince!

Update: I've been featured (among others) on the GW blog today! http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/wnt/blog.jsp?pid=3300058

6th edition, gamers edition unboxing!

Hi everybody and welcome back after a long break caused by nothing else but the lord of terror himself :D Anyway, I'm back from the GW store with the new rulebook in gamers edition.
I was the only one at the store lucky enough to get it delivered today so I had to open it on the spot to let everyone see what is up.

So without further ado, here's the video, enjoy!

Khorne berzerkers

Yessss, they're finally done! :) This bunch of bloodthirsty slashers from hell was supposed to be quickly batch painted to be used on tabletop but I just can't bring myself to cutting too many corners so all in all it took way to much time than I would want to :( Anyway, more pics and the wip report after the break.

What's new today

Hi guys. I know that updates have been slow lately so I want to bring you up to speed on what's happening in my little workshop.
First of all, I have tons of stuff to paint. I've just bought a box of khorne berzerkers, a daemon prince and 2 metal obliterators. I still have the 5 man squad of terminators to do and those 9 plague marines...
Last night I created some cool bases for the terminators and also put together 10 zerkers. I hate cleaning up the models, such a tedious task :( They have some amazing action poses though; love those models.
Since terminators are khorne followers in my army I'll paint them alongside the zerkers starting tonight! I really want to get as much done before May 15th so expect some fresh pics inc soon!

DMP 2012

Some photgraphs from the DMP 2012, held in Warsaw over this weekend. Loosely translated, DMP stands for Polish Team-Championship Cup. There were however, some teams from abroad as well. I don't really follow the tournament scene, but it was quite a big event (well, still is, since it ends tomorrow :)  and so definitely worth checking out. Plethora of pics after the break.

Nurgle predator

This is going to be a WIP post about my newest project - the Nurgle predator. I've spent the last 3 hours green stuffing the heck out of it and tomorrow will be paint day :) I also used some liquid GS for the hull gaps but didn't really find it overly effective. I hope it won't show too much in the end. Here is a front pic and some more after the break.

PROJECT STATUS: COMPLETE (new updates inside)

Project: Battlescape

Just as I suspected, the temptation to do the Battlescape terrain piece overwhelmed me, so I gave in and started working on it. I am going to update this post as I go further into the project so come back after a while if you want to see it unravel :)

PROJECT STATUS:                   COMPLETE
 

New airbrush kit - first impressions

Christmas came early to me! However, instead of Santa Claus, it was the DHL delivery guy who brought the airbrush kit :) Trembling with excitement, I took the box from him and immediately started unpacking.

I layed out everything in front of the camera, and placed a soda can for size reference. Few words about the items you can see in the pic after the break.

First man standing

The first marine from a new squad was born last night. As I mentioned in my previous post, this bunch will be used for gaming, so I was trying to cut some corners here and there to help speed up the process. Too bad I just can't seem to fully switch to this mindset and

Current WIPs

At the moment I have a few things going on. I still have 10 marines to paint from the box that I've mentioned in the previous post. I won't paint them to some very awesome standard though, enhanced tabletop experience will have to do here.
I also went for some easter shopping and got myself: a battlescape, a predator and a squad of terminators. The latter two are part of my army list so I will at least

Nurgle rhino

My latest project is a big one :) In the meantime I got a bit sucked into the whole gaming aspect of WH40k and played a few games with a small army of the models that I have + some proxies.
I kind of liked it so I decided to give it a shot and got myself the anniversary kit that had a rhino and 10 csm in it.

A while back, I asked Ron from From the Warp to give me some tips on painting large vehicles without an airbrush (I have a land speeder storm for my lonely marines waiting to reinfornce them). He made a great post with many useful tips so I decided to

25th anniversary

As you are all well aware, the WH40k 25th anniversary happened very recently. GW shipped out a special model to celebrate. The model is really cool and being a big fan of this universe, I just had to have it!

I painted the model in 3 logical steps; first the base, then the banner and then the marine.
The base was a simple drybrush job with some odd detail painting of the skulls
