Poisoned Needle Of The Imperium - Officio Assassinorum

Along with my many other projects I have decided to make my own assassins for two reasons. Firstly the official models are ultra bobbins...... and secondly I want all four to be women, like some kind hardcore Charlies Angels (refrain from googling "hardcore Charlies Angels" you probably end up seeing a midget with a donkey, I have learnt from my mistake of googling "butthurt lotion"....) 

I have started with the Culexus, using cauldron of blood bits, some wire, a skull, pain engine bit, grey knight bits, greenstuff/magicsculpt, eye of newt, wing of bat......

I have re-sculpted the hand to be pointing much like the official model who I refer to as Disco Dave 

Picture at the moment is pretty damn poor but time has been a factor, so much stuff to do meaning a quick snap with a itty bitty shitty phone camera is all I can muster. Yes I suck 






Grey Knights - Dreadknight

A recent basing theme change on my doubles army with my mate Pete has led me to have to revisit old friends, the Grey Knights.  The new basing idea is great, however not one that I want on my entire Exorcist army as it is far larger than the small contingent in the doubles list, as such slight amendments were made to our doubles army a few weeks ago and a few solo games played to get me in touch with the new Grey Knight rules....to be honest I am slightly out of touch with the main rules as well having not played for a few months but it is all starting to return.  All in all it is quite a decent codex and it will fit into the theme Pete is leaning towards both unit wise and basing wise.  That is all I am willing to say on that for now.  

I have most of the stuff built/converted already, just the Dreadknight to do.  Didn't want it to be stock so I am going to alter the look a fair amount.  Rather than repose the legs and colossal the ballache that would involve with having to repose the terminator pilot as well I am going to alter the look by changing the weapon and giving him a bloody great tabard so that he will look something similar to the brotherhood captain model.   



If anything the tabard will add more visual weight to the lower half of the model and improve the balance.

So far I have built the legs and more importantly the "counts as Nemesis Greatsword" halberd.

Inquisition Ministorum Priest

Right well my exam is out of the way, the weight is lifted from my shoulders and I am now back painting......4 days in a row i don't think I painting 4 days in total in the last 3 or more months!!

The cobwebs are starting to fall off but this is still very much still work in progress




I am happy with painting so far, but I am even more happy with the conversion of the Forge World Show Only Warrior Priest as I feel it can pass as both a Ministorum Preist with a las pistol and a power maul AND as a Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor with a null rod :D

Also was rather happy with the face like to think i nailed it, although I need to maybe add a little more colour to the bags under his eyes and possibly an ][ tattoo on this shiney dome



*EDIT* My friend Dan commented that he couldn't help but think of Richard O'Brien (of crystal maze fame for the unenlightend) and I have decided that I am going to name him "The Reverend Brother Ricardo von Brien"


Be well

Ferrus Manus For A Mate

So I got asked to paint Ferrus Manus for my mate Ben a while back.  Has been sat on my shelf for so long there was a layer of dust on it!

Been struggling to actually paint much of anything recently and haven't picked up an actual brush in what seems like months, too much building of marines and the like.  

Sadly for me Ben glued the entire thing together before he gave it to me, which makes my life a living hell, but he doesn't expect a great deal end result wise so hopefully we will both be pleasantly surprised with the end result.  So far we have..............






Not much i know, but shit it;s a start.
