That familiar is absolutely brilliant.

Cheers guys! I have lost the last few weeks of hobby time to recovering my website, full story here... now that that's done, though, I'm back to painting. I have thoroughly lost track of what the last thing was I was up to so I have yet to decide what I'm going to pick up first.

Alright! Got a Space Marine with Grenade Launcher done:



I don't seem to have a good size to embed with the new site, unfortunately, so if you want better sizes/more pics see here.

Was nice painting some blue again, it has been a little while between Space Marines. First time having a go at a wreath.

Was not aware of that chunky launcher! He is a cool design.

Ditto, not one I'd seen before. Lovely work, the freehand on the power glove looks great.

Rogue Trader metal Grenade launcher ^_^ basic but nice

 

[angrygriffin]

Cheers guys! That grenade launcher proved to be the hardest of the metal weapons for me to find at the time, I ended up having to buy some Squat heavy weapon minis to get a copy. I have seen quite a few go past since then, of course, as always happens...

Got another one done - this time one of the Death Eagles:

More pics here.

I dithered for some time between going with magenta/white or having them join the rest of my Ultramarines and in the end gave in to blue. If I end up with another copy of these guys I'd go with the Death Eagles colouring, but I felt more like blue this time around.

Very nice, one of my favourite marines although I've not acquired one for my "current" collection we did have him back in the day. Actually got the Plasma gun one of the set vaguely on the go now.

I like you nod with the knee checkering to the WD paint job. At some point you'll have to treat us to an "army so far" shot of all the marines together.

Cheers. I need to find whatever I did with the other two and find backpacks for them and try to get the whole set painted.

I have been sporadically trying to make a little diorama background for larger group shots but so far nothing has made it to completion. I have a solution which I think is one iteration away from being usable for a squad, and I have plans for a larger board to put all of the models I have completed onto... I should probably just prioritise getting that done one of these days as it'd be cool to have some group shots.

Oh shit, I didnt know you were on here! Youre like one of my biggest inspirations, seeing your models for ideas looking online and a reason for me collecting these in the first place! These are the coolest things ever and lwk some of the best paintjobs ive ever seen!
