I try to keep up with my hobby progress updates on my blog, but my hobby-squirrel attention issues are all over the place over there, so I thought I would at least start an Oldhammer specific-ish blog/thread here where I can post on stuff that I paint (When I have time - that's a BIG "when" with tiny children about and no dedicated hobby space.) that fits best what this forum is about.
I don't plan to work on or toward completing "Project Blah", etc., just random crap I've had in my lead/plastic/resin mountain for a while and maybe you lot will appreciate too.
Of late, as a palette cleanser I have cleaned up and based this lot. Of course, not "Official" GW, but some pretty cool homages by 3rd party sculptors. I plan to paint them all up in my fav Marine chapter livery - Space Sharks.
The Dreadnought is an upscaled version of the original RT Dread made by Hybrid Miniatures in the UK. (I got the resin version to lessen the shipping cost) I magnetised it's arms so I can change the load-out if I want.
The Marines are 3D prints I found on Etsy and asked the seller to upscale them to Primaris size (I actually like the Primaris aesthetic for the most part, I know, heresy.) so they'd tower over a regular human mini (I like my power armoured warriors of the future to stand out). Sadly, the seller got the inevitable Cease and Desist Letter from GW so they are no longer available, and I wasn't able to grab the 2nd set with Marines wielding Special Weapons :/.
Not sure when I'll get time to begin painting, but I'll at least get this lot primed this weekend I think, Superbowl parties allowing.
After these guys I have some random 80's Talisman figs, maybe some RT Imperial Guard or perhaps RT Genestealers to work on. Maybe even some early 80's DnD stuff. We'll see.
