Warhammer 40k Excellence: White Scars, Kroot Renegades, and Commissions

Hello everybody! 

This is a bloodthirster that I was asked to paint (my first commission I might add!).  With help from Frosty on creating the base I went to work.  I was asked to paint red skin with black wings to go along with purple/pink/gold armor.  I hope the owner of this model will be happy how it turned out! 

What are your thoughts on the paint scheme?

Well That theme didn’t work out too long… Well I guess it is best to keep things fresh.

Anyways, Besides reporting a new theme selection due to some malfunctions with the previous one, I was looking for some feedback for this website. I feel that solely having conversions and painted miniatures is fun, but this site is for everything 40k. So I have a couple of things in mind in how I plan on ultimately integrate into the site, but I want to hear what you guys had in mind as well, especially since this site was made for Gamers by Gamers and I want to cater to everyone’s tastes!

I look forward to hearing your interesting and creative ideas!

Continuing on with more Nurgle Exploits…

Here is a unit of Nurgle Terminators that I just finished. My goal was to implement a “Zombified and Diseased” look to them with a little bit of puss here and there and I think they came out quite nicely. Some details might be a little hard to work out due to the lighting, but after I am done priming them, I’ll take another group shot and throw it in there so you can see the end result.

I hope you all enjoy!

Hello All!

I just wanted to show off some “nurglized” tanks that I did for apart of a commission. This is going to be the first of many updates on Nurgle Chaos Space Marines. For those who are concerned, no I didn’t break down and buy a new army! I will however be building and painting a chaos army from scratch which is pretty awesome if you ask me.

So this installment is for three Rhinos and one Vindicator. So once these bad boys are done, I have one more vindicator to do along with all of the infantry and daemons.

I used a product called “pumice paste” which when applied to large surfaces it shows a texture and has a little bit of a grit to it. When it is all said and done it is going to resemble puss, disease, vomit and so forth which are the trade marks of a Nurgle army. Did I mention that we also wants zombies built into his army? So because of this, the vehicles have zombie/undead parts for flavor and even a zombie gunner. However when I begin to work on infantry, expect to see way more zombies in the mix!

I hope you all enjoy these as much as I did building them and feedback is always appreciated!

In case you were wondering… Yes that is a Necron Warrior strapped to the front of the demolisher cannon! MUHAHAHA!

Hello All!

Here are some of the converted Attack bikes I have been working on. The motivation for these were that even though the attack bike kit is nice, it simply does not fit the theme of the White Scars. The Attack bike with sidecar is more bulky and appears slow and slow units have no place in a White Scars army!

So my aim was to produce a unit more fitting to a streamlined and sleek nature of the rest of the army and I decided to create “Quads” to represent my attack bikes. They are a bit bulkier then the regular bikes but they still appear as if they are as fast as them (which is awesome).

Enough talk about them. Here are some pictures of the 8 multi-melta attack quads that I converted up. I still have plans to do 4 more in the coming months but we will save that until later.

Here are close ups of the custom bases I made for my custom White Scars Attack bikes. I decided to use various pieces from a variety of different armies to help me distinguish which Bikes belong to which squads. It also allows me to identify which armies I have grudges with! So here they are!

Hello all!

I was recently contracted to create scenic bases and build an entire Cadian Imperial Guard army. So this is the first update of many for this particular army. The first build was a imperial guard battalion box set and to turn it into a platoon. The sentinel in that box set is being put on hold until I can get a squadron of them ready so they can be used as one unit with similar bases.

The customer was looking for (of all things) a Nazi German themed Imperial Guard army in a city battlefield. That is why I opted to stay away from the “gothic” ruins that GW sells in favor of a more post industrial look consisting of bricks, piping, and other assorted pieces. Without further ado… Here is the end result of the project thus far.

As per the customer’s request, I cleaned up the models, did some green stuff work to them and took clearer pictures of the command squad. So here is the end result and I hope you all enjoy them!

Just a quick update on the progress of the second Sternguard Rhino. I managed to finish it the other day, so here are the pictures of it. I hope you all enjoy it!

Hello All!

I trust that everyone had a safe holiday and a happy new year these past couple of weeks and got everything they wanted as well

As far as “New Year Resolutions” are concerned, I have a few of them and we’ll see if they happen like I hope they will. First off I hope to “finish” collecting, converting, and painting my white scars army. I will probably stop at 5000 points but who knows. But I do have a grand scheme to get this army done promptly and I hope it all works out!

Secondly, I would love to start working on my Imperial Guard again. So the first thing I feel I need to do to them is come up with a color scheme and that will be one of my next tasks in the following weeks.

Thirdly, I hope to rebase my whole entire Grey Knights army to something more fitting for the emperor’s best instead of blah green flock bases. This is a really easy project in theory… but for some reason I keep putting it off…. but not this year!

Finally, I hope to keep expanding my kroot renegades. I have several unfinished kroot suits to paint along with a few others I still need to build not to mention make flying bases for all of my tanks. I also want to touch up the paint schemes of the vast amounts of kroot I have laying around.

So there are a few of my 40k resolutions. I hope to see them all finished but with work, family, and school its probably not going to happen. I am sure going to try my hardest though!!! Also, if you have any 40k resolutions for the new year you would like to share, please go right ahead so we can work together to get our projects done!

I know that having all of this time has allowed me to finish projects that I have been working on so I feel its finally time to bring in the new year with Kor’sorro Khan! He is an awesome figure and though he is on foot and therefore kind of pointless in my all bike white scars army, I still have a soft spot for him. So I painted him up and here he is:

I hope you all enjoyed this and look forward to feedback and comments about him as well!

Until next time
