I've uploaded it on Cults and MyMiniFactory for free (it may take a couple of days to clear MyMiniFactory's QA process BTW).
I'm really happy with the colours
Hopefully I'll get a few more finished later this week.
If anyone wants to try printing one for themselves I've uploaded it to Cults3D https://cults3d.com/en/users/Doctor-Spork/3d-models
Painting my space wizard was a fun little distraction, but genestealers don't paint themselves.
I've got my infantry base coated so it's time to give them a good wash.
And I've got a little squat that Chris at Ontos Games gave me at BOYL for when I'm sick of batch painting cultists.
Squiggly beasts were fantastic, but I have to disagree about the Zoanthrope I've always loved it. I am a bit odd though.
Having thought I would be chasing this forever due to the fact I didn't want to pay £50-100 for one I managed to grab this for a tenner.
Even better, when it arrived it appears to be in near mint condition. Oh happy days!
I recently got this book, it may have had a slight effect on my choice of colours
I love how 3D printing has let me bring some classic bit of scenery back to life.
I printed this off on an Ender 3 with no supports. If anyone has a 3D printer and wants on for themselves it's available over on Cults 3D https://cults3d.com/en/users/Doctor-Spork/3d-models
I always wanted one of these, but the prices these days are beyond ridiculous. So when I got the chance to buy this (nearly complete) one for 50 euros I did not hesitate. Can't wait to do some fabrication and bring this pile of scrap back to it's former glory.
I did a little bit of sculpting on a 3D print of the old Warhammer Quest wizard, I'm planning on using him as a 40k imperial psyker
Thanks. I modelled it in blender and was trying to mash up the old epicast model and the original rhino kit
Before answering your questions I'd just like to say that you are off to a great start. The figure in the main picture has a good movement to it and feels like a natural pose.
If you don't already keep a bits box. This should be where you keep spare parts from sprues or that you have cut off any models you have been kit bashing. I also chuck in things that might be useful that would otherwise end up in the bin, wire, mesh, tubes, scraps of plastic packaging that can be repurposed, just whatever you think might be useful.
I use unscented Dettol. Leave plastic or metal in it overnight and use some fresh Dettol and a toothbrush to clean them up. Just be sure to put plenty of paper down underneath as the paint gunk dries and can pretty much only be cleaned up by scrubbing it with more Dettol.
Looking at your other comments I would also recommend the Howling Griffons, but if you have a colour scheme that you think would look cool just use that and make yourself a nice successor chapter. Personally one of the things I have always enjoyed about 40k is being able to make up your own lore.
One last piece of advice if you plan to do more sculpting with putty. Try getting your hands on some greenstuff, it is my modelling putty of choice and gives the best finished product in my opinion.
Been (slowly) working on an old Avatar of Khaine
😂 Interesting, how does this picture make your back feel?
They arrived yesterday morning, but life has been all over me recently so didn't get a chance to photograph them until today.
Thank you again
Cheers, I did paint like this back in the day Haven't painted much in the last 20 years, really enjoying being back at it.
Here is my entry
In progress
Clean colour scheme, that looks amazing. Xenos beware.
My warboss is coming along, so I thought I would share my in progress shot with you
Cheers.
These were the first four that I did for a game of Necromunda at BOYL, So the rest should end up looking like them.
