The Captain WIP...

I started painting Capt. Rodriguez. I desaturated my standard crimson fist colour scheme a bit, 'cause
it was much to ...well... blue. ^^ It's a bit rough on some parts, but I intend to do a lot of weathering on this one, so I think the blendings are not too important right now. Just need to get a feel for the colours and the light...

Rodriguez continued...

I sanded the cloak and basecoated the mini afterwards. There's still a spot on the cloak that needs to be improved. You can see the transition between the layers of putty there...

Captain Rodriguez WIP

Hey there!

I'm back with some Crimson Fist stuff again. This time, I'd like to introduce a very special character: Terminator Captain Estéban Rodriguez, who fought so glouriously against an ork nob-mob, that he got promoted to the rank of captain.

This actually really happened in a game between me and my Crimson Fist playing customer. The Termiator Sergeant killed most of the orks and the waaghboss and after it was all over, he was the only one standing. :)

After getting my orkass whopped so badly, I promised to to a little "upgrade" on the model... for free!
I didn't change the original pose, but I stripped-off the paint, put the mini on a decent base and started working on a cape. (Every important Warhammer character needs a cape in my opinion. It makes them more superheroic ;))

So here's what I did so far. I used a 50/50 mix of Greenstuff and Milliput, which worked nicely. After I had the initial shape hardened out, I added some folds with some more fresh putty. Not perfect yet, but it already looks like a cape. ^^

I still need to sand it once more, to get a really smooth surface. I might add some more putty to the fold in the middle, since I'm not so happy with it yet.

Typhus

The Lord of Decay's favourite son....

I took a standard space marine head and tryed to make a fat and ugly face on it. :)
Still have to do a lot on the cloak.

Empire General on Griffon

I've started this conversion some while ago and now it's finally finished.
Feel free to comment!

Death Korps and Space Wolves

I've almost finished one of the DK squads, just have to replace the
tip of one guy's gone. It broke of when I dropped it. :(

I also changed the the shoulder pads of the space wolves, didn't like the previous version...


I used decals by the way, my freehand skills are too bad to draw a good looking wolf head somehow :(

More WIPs...

Started working on the Sword Chick.
I'm trying out NMM once again, haven't done this for quite some time. My goal on this mini is to practice blending and to work with a very limited palette and strongly desaturated colors. It's in a very early stage though...

Let me know what you think.
