Master Ciaphas' Illuminations of War & Death

[Firedrake Cordova]

Nice - the blood spatter effect is really well done

[Dr_Ruminahui]

Those look great!  Is there anything on the back side of them?

[Master Ciaphas]

Thanks, Dr.! 

The reverse side of the tokens is entirely plain and flat. Nothing exciting there! I suppose I could have painted the reverse side red or gold / bronze...but...I just went with plain, gun metal silver.

 

Cheers!

[Master Ciaphas]

Hail!

 

Managed to finish off my squat mole mortar support weapon. Brilliant little thing, and I am well pleased with how it turned out!

 

 

Next in the squat-works is another five man lasgun section and two heavy weapon trikes.

 

Cheers!

[Master Ciaphas]

Hail! 

Finished some stuff in January 2025 :-)

Wrecked Titan markers for AT18, some AT18 industrial terrain and finally a pair of Aeronautica Imperialis Storm Raptors :-D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And a group photo of January's works:

 

 

Cheers!

They look great. The heat effect in the crater and the flames on the aircraft wings came out very nicely

[Master Ciaphas]

Hail! 

 

Thank you, Firedrake! Much appreciated!

 

In other news, I have managed to finish another seven Corpse Grinder Cult gangers for Necromunda:

 

Just need to finish another four, and all my CGC will be done (sans The Harvest Lord...)

 

Cheers!

[Firedrake Cordova]

Very nice - the blood splatter came out well, and the weathered hazard stripes on the base are really nice

[Master Ciaphas]

Hail!

 

Thank you again for your kind comments, Firedrake! They are much appreciated!

 

Meanwhile, I have managed to finish some chaotic terrain for Necromunda, that can be the epicenter for a Ritual or some such scenario. 3D printed "Cursed Giant Heart", that was a horror to put together, as the resin was brittle and the joints small... :-S

Anyhow, I am pleased enough with the result, for what is "just" a terrain piece. I have a few more chaotic terrain pieces coming up, as I am planning an Uprising Campaign for my Necromunda campaign group :-D

 

 

 

 

Cheers!

[Firedrake Cordova]

Well that's just ... disturbing!  

 

In one way it's a little bit of a shame that the base isn't industrial themed, but I think it still works?

[Dr_Ruminahui]

Its a horror to look at too (in the best way), so job well done!

 

BTW, I don't know if you have played the Borderlands 3 DLC "Love and tentacles" but there might be some inspiration in there for your necromunda campaign, as its a very enjoyable and tongue in cheek take on Lovecraft (and features a dark cult with a heart theme).

[Master Ciaphas]

Thank you! I am pleased that you like them!

 

I finished a bit more heretical terrain last week:

 

Equally grisly in scheme, but sets the "mood" admirably when dealing with Chaos Cults and the like...

 

As for Borderlands - I haven't played any of the games in that franchise - nor watched the movie? I will take a look at that DLC! Thanks for the hint! :-D

Faithfully,

Master Ciaphas

[Firedrake Cordova]

Very thematic

[Master Ciaphas]

Thank you, Firedrake!

 

Meanwhile, in February 2025, I have finished another ten pieces of "stuff" for Necromunda:

 

Hive Secundus Data Stacks:

 

 

 

Trazior Sentry Guns

 

Next, a small "commission" job I am doing for a friend. 

 

Cheers!

 

Master Ciaphas

[Firedrake Cordova]

They look good to me

[Master Ciaphas]

Hail!

 

Right, then! I managed to finished the magic, flying, blue baby also known as a Caryatid Prime, the Spyre Hunters' exotic pet. An interesting model - and finished it in a single sitting.

 

 

I also finished the seven doors, that comes in the Hive Secundus boxed set. I have PLENTY of doors now, thank you very much... had a bit of fun adding some Underhive graffitii. 

 

 

 

Next project is finishing some Squat Brotherhood Warriors, that I have had standing around for four months now...

 

Cheers!

 

 

[Firedrake Cordova]

Nice work - I like the graffiti

Hail!

Managed to finish my retro Imperial Barricades :-)

 

 

 

I am well happy with them!

 

Cheers!

I have that one as the cardboard push out from WD from way back, still works after 20 odd years
