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

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 Rauthuros daemon and fountain


Painted up a couple more Reaper Bones miniatures. First is Rauthuros, a quick paint job (all the arms and weapons getting in the way everywhere put me off going back and doing any more highlights). The model received a base befitting a 40k Daemon Prince. It needed some cleaning of mold lines with a sharp knife and several gaps filling with epoxy clay.


Cocktail sticks for base spikes.





Also had a go at a piece of terrain; a fountain.


I went for water-corroded / verdigris tones, and used a thin sliver of plastic packaging and plenty of paint-on gloss varnish for the water. This piece could be used in a number of ways in an RPG or skirmish game.

Reaper Bones miniature painting


I finally collected my Reaper Bones Kickstarter that arrived about a year ago, and quickly got to work painting some of them. I'm enjoying the change from sci-fi to fantasy, and painting individuals one at a time again.

The Bones kickstarter are old news now, but I'm generally very happy with them. They have some problems (mould lines are quite annoying to trim due to the springy material), but in they're fantastic value.
