And something a little different today… need to get some plants and stuff for the base, so not quite finished yet.

A couple of Acastus Knight Asterius done for my Legions Imperialis knight and automata army. That's 4000pts reached with these 😀 Now I just need to get a game in with them

Four hours painting one face. Paid off I reckon 😅 The rest of the osl is just the first bit of light placement sketching. It'll look much better eventually! #osl #abaddon #eyeofterror #warhammer40k #warhammerart #miniatures #minipainting #paintingwarhammer

New edition imminent, so we're just starting prep for the next stage of our long running campaign. Likely to see the return of...

Alpha Legion & Sons of Horus vs Dark Mechanicum tonight. Great game. A draw in the end. Legions Imperialis is becoming an fave up there with BFG.

Starting to get somewhere with the terrain set ups for Legions Imperialis. Gonna need a load more of the road boards though

Played 1000pt game of Man O’War last night, Bretonnians vs Dwarves. After cautiously approaching each other, all hell then broke loose. Despite their heavily armoured vessels the Dwarves were unable to withstand the massed broadsides of the Bretonnian fleet. 12-6 Win to the Brets #WarhammerCommunity

The 4th edition Warhammer bestiary book is rad and always has been 👍

It’s Neutron Wave Cannon time. These Legions Imperialis Falchions are fantastic little kits. #warhammercommunity

Had a lot of fun trying my hand at recreating some of that classic John Blanche style using the Masterclass sets from @thearmypainter.bsky.social - the one 'outside' paint I allowed myself was Plate Mail Metal for highlights. Not sure I quite hit Blanchitsu heights, but that was a great exercise!

Missed opportunity really

Couldn't fit all of the Knights in for this pic and there's more yet to be built, but the Black Baron of House Vyroni and his entourage of knights and Automata is taking shape 😀

Went to see The Beekeeper of Aleppo play last weekend. If it comes to a theatre near you, I highly recommend going. Thought provoking, funny, devastatingly sad, but an important insight into the plight of refugees. One of those things you can't stop thinking about afterwards.

First of 4 Vultarax Stratos-Automata for my Knights and Automta army

These days I use a mix of paint brands. Currently got roughly 70 Citadel paints that are unopened, but have clearly gone to crap/rock solid. All the other brands of paint are fine. Including my 20+ year old Citadel paints in the old pots. Ugh.

By all the gods, change the pots, not the name. 🤣

More Thanatars... lots more Automata to do next and then more Knights.

More Automata done and more to do

Work in progress. Thanatar Siege Automata for Legions Imperialis. Once these 2 test minis are done, I’ve got another 6 to do and then have to fight the temptation to not buy lots more 😜

Last night I built 1 each of the Legions Imperialis Domitar and Arlatax. Nice result once built, but so very frustrating to build. Whoever though it was a good idea to make totally unnecessarily separate components that are about 3mm wide needs to be catapulted into a gas giant.

Little Castellax Automata done last night.

The kastelan was missing bits because there were a few parts of it I used in previous builds, like the front shin armour became bicep armour for my dorn tankhead, the knee pads became elbow pads for my northstar armiger, and quite a few kastelan pieces went into my akira bike

And some more Knight Atrapos.

Test scheme for Automata in a Knight Household Aegis Cohort.

360° #Nurgle Aligned Traitor Guard patrolling the ruins. That wraps up this project. Really pleased with how they turned out: need to find more uses for resin in the future 🫧 #nerdlings #paintingminiatures #miniaturepainting #grimdark #limitedpalette

Been a while since the realironhand did any Iron Hands so here's Caanok Var. The projection bit from the RH servo skull pinged off the sprue never to be seen again 😆 oh well! #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #warhammer #jhbackdrops

Crap photo cos light in the gaming room is awful, but 3k of Alpha Legion & Sons of Horus with knight support for tomorrows game vs Dark Mechanicum

Work in progress, ran out of time tonight. Tidy up and weathering tomorrow night.

Got a lot more buildings to paint, but it’s getting there

Work continues on adding to our Legions Imperialis terrain.

I think I got to use my Iron Snakes of Ithaka Leviathan once before GW moved them to legends. 🤪 Will get used as a Brutalis one day I guess (not playing 40k at the mo).

Questoris Mechanicum Knights, followers of the Black Baron, an Alpha Legion agent that manipulated them into becoming traitors to both House Vyroni and the Emperor himself. #warhammercommunity #legionsimperialis

EGG TANK!

HAL JORDAN: In brightest day, in blackest BEASTIE BOYS: NIGHT! HAL JORDAN: No evil shall escape my BEASTIE BOYS: SIGHT! HAL JORDAN: This is awkward because when I invited you I thought I was messaging Beast Boy from the Teen Titans.

I think this is probably my best 40K paint job so far, the only problem is it sets a pretty high bar for the next Saturnine I do #nerdlings #warhammer

More Alpha Legion done. Up to about 3800pts of Alpha Legion and Sons of Horus now. Think the next batch will get me to the 4K mark

Can’t get a good photo but been busy panting lots of little jump pack glows that nobody will ever see whilst actually playing the game 🤪

So that new Defiler then youtu.be/wouKI_myXxk?...

The complete tutorial series about painting my Skaven Globadier is available on my patreon. Everything is hand painted with a brush, I never use airbrush in my tutorials 🙂 #warhammer #skaven #WarhammerCommunity #aos
