Death for the Death God - no, wait, that doesn't work, does it? Anyway ...

Sometimes you just lose momentum on a painting job and the figure just sits there 95% done for a week, a month or longer. I lost momentum on some Ogre Leadbelchers and they have sat untouched for about 2 years, so I'm pleased I finally got around to finishing these guys. In fact the four of them only needed about an evening's work more.

I've added them to a new album of Ogres.

I've also painted some more Witchhunters, two of them conversions of WH40K figures.

I had a game of Necromunda over the summer with a couple of the lads at Sheffield Wargames Society. Since we could only muster two gangs between us, I knocked out these chaps in just under a week. With a bit longer, I think I would have done a bit more with the weapons, but I am still plesed with the way they turned out!

I've been a bit quiet this summer, as it ihas all been rather busy IRL - but that doesn't mean I haven't been painting. Just not photographing!

Well, I do have a few more Tyranids to paint, but this completes all of the Horde Papiyon.

I've been asked a couple of times how I did the carapaces of my Tyranids, so guess it is time for a tutorial.

How you do it is a follows:-

Firstly, found a rather nice figure that painted up nicely as Bloodrayne

a couple of Death Cult girls to complement her

Just a random collection of Tips and Tricks and other things I've found in my few years of modeling and miniature painting.

I retook some of the last set of photos I uploaded, since I wasn't happy with how they looked.

Since I've painted a few more figures since then, some new stuff uploaded as well.

Hasslefree call him Cobra - I choose to call him Snake ;)
