Belial, Grand Master of the Deathwing Happy with how he turned out in the end. First attempt at proper fire OSL which kind of worked I think. What's next? 😂 #warhammer40k #darkangels40k #miniaturepainting

Pretty close now - attempt at 'proper' OSL has worked OK, I think. Just some bits to stick on the base now, and the rim to rebase! #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting

Nearly there with Belial - sword, armour tidying and base left #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Belial Begins... #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

All done. Simple basing of GSW Crackle, some tufts and rocks. I'm very happy 😁 #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Basing still to go, but it's all together now. Very pleased with the banner gold NMM, and the gun. Not pleased with the cloak or the face. The rest all has paint on, in pretty close to the right places, so that's good 🤣 #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40k

Hate the result, but I'm done after assembly and basing. I learned a lot, so will do better next time. Onwards and upwards! Did someone say Orktober? 🤣 #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Finally I reach my Final Boss. Three times this body has been stripped and restarted because I can't successfully paint a damned cream cloak! #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

All subassemblies are done. Just 2 bodies to go (they've been stripped and reprimed). #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

I'm happy with the 'mine vs boxart' result. As an NMM newbie, that is... #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Left arm. Done... #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Azrael's Banner done. #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

No, I didn't paint the trim - are you mad.... #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

New project alert!! #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #darkangels40k

Last bit of NMM the legs. Happy with it, and getting more confident to go further as I go! Still have the base to do, and am toying with the idea of doing a banner pole... #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Dry fit of a couple of arms while I'm finishing the legs and the base... #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Bit rough and ready, but it'll do for 20 mins #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Fiddly bit of gold NMM needed for the front. Exciting! #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

The last of the 'bits'. Now I really do have to start the body 🤣 #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

Well, that experiment went better than expected! Gold lettering POPS 🤣 #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

All the left arm bits! 3 right arm guns to come 🤣 #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #paintingminiatures #warhammerpainting #minipainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

I know I'm just putting off doing the body, but I'm enjoying these bits - flamer NMM done, but needs something else... #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #paintingminiatures #warhammerpainting #minipainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

A couple more bits of progress from last night. Bit more NMM, purity seals, and even the squad markings for the left shoulder #paintingwarhammer #paintingwarhammer40k #paintingminiatures #warhammerpainting #minipainting #miniaturepainting #gamesworkshop #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

First two attempts at gold NMM - start small, I say 🤣 Not sure I can keep it up for a Dreadnaught's worth of trinkets - but it's all getting logged in my ancient brainbox for later use #warhammerpainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40k #warhammer40000 #warhammercommunity #nonmetallicmetal

I'm not sure I've ever posted on Blue sky. So here we go...
