Necron lord and emperors champion

Retro marines and Necron lord

I have been away for a bit due to work, but browsing ebay the other day I found a classic emperors champion going cheap. This was a model I always wanted when I was younger but as it was an event exclusive (I think?) I never got my hands on it. It was a fun guy to paint and was the first real opportunity for me to try out some scale 75 necro gold that I got my hands on. Absolutely lovely paint, colour is gorgeous and its a joy to paint with. Them figure itself was a bit of a nightmare to clean u
Blood Angels thunderhawk

Thunderhawk round 2 part 3

Well thats thunderhawk 2 me 0. Managed to get a nice red base coat on through the airbrush. Masked up the wings to do the black details and there was no paint coming out the airbrush. So I disassembled the air brush and the nozzle was so jammed up only about 1/3 of the needle was showing through the nozzle!

Thunderhawk round 2 part 2

Managed to get a decent prime coat on the thawk today aswell as priming a necron lord and chaos lord. It was interesting to see the difference between the black and grey primer going through the air brush, the thawk had  2 coats of grey whilst the necron and chaos lords only needed the one black undercoat in my opinion.  Both primers are vallejo thinned 2 primer :1 thinner with a couple of drops of flow improver. The black went down beautifully and as I said the grey needed a bit of going over.

Thunderhawk round 2 part 1

I had a stab at painting this thunderhawk previously with an air brush (my first time using one) and things did not go well!! So after a few days of soaking in floor cleaner and scrubbing with a tooth brush I think it's time for another go. Plan is to re prime it with vallejo grey primer as this stuff seems to go on smooth and very thin, much nicer than the halfords auto primer rattle cans that I have used for most of my guys to date! I love the way forgeworld have painted their full size one an

Tactical Marine

I've had a box of blood angels tactical marines that I have been painting up for a while now. This is the 10th and last one all done (finally!!) I've tried to go for an old but well maintained look, painting the chest decoration and other accessories in a weathered brass sort of style. I'm not a big fan of gems on armour so I painted these as brass aswell as I like the idea of decoration but not done in expensive or valuable materials as whats the point if its getting shot at!? I would like to a
