It's the Season to get Painting

[popevaderii]

Think this Grenadier Cyclops is the last mini I'm going to get finished before BOYL...see everyone in Newark

i don't think i've seen that cast before,
excellent work.

Cliff Linton sculpt, originally from Grenadier, currently in production from Forlorn Hope at a pretty not too bad price. I believe Cliff Linton only sculpted for Grenadier and some for Perth Pewter who despite the name, are USA based (New York... go figure) mostly a 'collectables' company so they make statues, junk, etc

great job on it ^_^

Thanks and he spent last Sunday charging about making Elves run away...

BOYL's been and gone....so new painting project, which oddly seems to be 40K....
Space Hulk Genestealers (speed painted while suffering with Covid) and Warhammer Quest Pit FIghter I got in a job lot who was missing an arm so converted into a Necromunda Ganger.

good stuff.
i would have assumed that pit fighter conversion was a goliath if you hadn't told me otherwise.

Yeah, it was a very simple conversion but very fitting for the game. Poor thing had been burtalised but the Space Marine arm hid it well.

as well as the pit fighter look (which it of course has), the clothes aren't too bad for some Necromunda and the colours really help pull of the unified look to make it work as well as being 'He pinched what he could from all over the place'. Nice job

I think it's less that the pitches were damaged and more that they weren't casting reliably

Case in point with a long running rescue I have of a pitch I picked up years ago that might be a miscast or had some weird accident.

The Nurgle army is so nice, love the green armour.

Genestealers are lovely, very classy and classic. Hopefully one day mine will end up looking like that!

He'll make a great Necromunda ganger. And as a bonus, you could slip him into a Gene Stealer Cult. (Not sure what gave me that idea.) Fabulous find!

At last have a Space Hulk of Genestealers painted....only taken since 1989!!

 

[symphonicpoet]

Lovely! Can't argue with a bunch of gene stealers.

a blink of an eye.
well done.

Genestealers look especially good. Those models are timeless, what’s a mere 35 years to such gribbly beauty?

TBH the genestealers are a lot of smoke and mirrors...essentially thanks to contrast paints only 8 colours were used, inc 3 used for the bases.

In geological terms I was quite quick :p
