Astartes of Charity Ultramarine complete

Finished him off. Excuse the glare, it's a very bright day.

Someone else painted a pair of yellow stripes on their marine, so I copied it. The grenade is purple to match the colour of the charity.

Cork base. I wasn't brave enough to try glow from the lens, this time.

Devastator Squad marking. Shoulder pad repurposed from Chaos marine (the whole guy had to be scraped together from the bits box).

;-)

Converted and painted mantic and reaper skeletons and zombies

I quickly painted up plenty of the low-level undead I had floating around my reaper box, and bits box. Like the zombies, I'm trying to get a bank of commonly fought, low level enemies. Sure, painting a great big demon is fun, but I've never even played in a game that got high enough level to need the miniature.

The undead are stationed at Disneyland

Zombie magic user and zombie dance troupe

Spell slinger with skellingtons

Bits: CSM nurgle banner, mantic elves

A lot of the skeletons are just mantic elves with head swaps for small skulls.

Flame is a fiddly bit from the end of a chainsword.

The grass tufts are by army painter.

Trying to vary the reaper bones duplicated with hot water and paint jobs.

Quick and dirty paintjobs for a slow and dirty monsters. It was kind of fun, but I might make them less sloppy at some point. But probably not soon.

Reaper Bones Goblins

Latest dent in the Reaper Bones kickstarter backlog. Trying to get some low level stuff together, as it's used more often than the high level stuff.

WIP Reaper Bones proxy Space Hulk marines counts-as

Made some progress on these, so posting them, mainly to give myself a kick to get them finished. Each model represents one of the Terminators from the Space Hulk box.

Reaper Bones proxy Space Hulk marines counts-as

After a couple of games of Space Hulk, we felt that it was a bit strange that the hulking Space Marine Terminators dropped so easily. So I had a rummage through the Reaper Bones Kickstarter box and started bashing together a motley crew of intrepid and opportunistic Space-Hulk-Spelunkers (or "Spunkers").

Detector-doodad dude.

Standard mook with door cutter.

Nid-toaster.

Hammer and shield sergeant who always dies horribly. This model kind of reminds me of a Sister of Battle, so I might go that route with the paintjob.

Redshirts. The black patterned bases are from a hardware store, they are actually rubber pads for putting on the bottoms of table legs.

Redshirt pointing at something.

Bangy bangy cannon man.

I ran out of models / couldn't come up with a dual-wielder that I liked, so I upgraded this one's chainsaw. I might replace her if I find a more suitable model, because she doesn't look like she'd do much good against a Genestealer.

Spooky wizardy bloke.

Still playing with bits on the other sergeant. In other games he might be an Inquisitor / Rogue Trader.

Ork Stainless Steel Painboy (counts as Necromunda Pit Slave)

After an internet search, turns out this miniature is a 'Stainless Steel Painboy'. I'm unsure of the edition, but it seems quite old. His right arm is a combination of Mk3 Power armour, a plastic Chaos marine boltpistol and some cables, cardboard, and a bit of round base.

It's not really come out in the photograph, but his eyes and the slime on the base are varnished with gloss varnish.

The hand-pistol was fun to discover.

I've been reading Oldhammer blogs and I like the way the shields often had these crazy faces on them, so I had a go at one.

Lots of tools on his tool belt, but no hands to reach any of them.

Smiley face :D

His brain is safely locked up in case someone tries to pinch it.
