Week #18: An eBay Miniature Rescue

I decided I wanted to try my hand at resucing a mini. I found this lot of Dark Imperium Plague Marines that were caked in...something. I've always loved the Dark Imperium sculpts so I had to pick them up. How could I not?

I have no clue what this model was painted with, but it was a pain in the ass to get off. It must have been some kind of enamel paint because acrylic paint comes off easily with my stripper. Either way I'm really happy with how it turned out in comparison to what it was prior. Once I made it passed whatever the blood effect was the armor coloring seemed to be almost like a darker blue Night Lords style color scheme. Whoever worked on it did a good job. I'm not really sure why they caked on all that blood effect. I wish I could have heard from the person who painted this squad to see what was going on in their head at the time. Maybe there was a plan that just didn't work out like they had thought it would. I know how they feel.

Funct; (nervous) i really wanted to share my progress on my uniform.

(Proud) im so happy with the robe! I cant wait till i make the tubes and wires that attach to the mouth piece to the back piece!

End funct; 94-Hex

Hatsune Miku x Warhammer 40k

This isn't regular imperial propaganda, this is ADVANCED propaganda.

I wanted to draw this ever since I saw those Project Voltage Pokemon Mikus, I was inspired to make my own crossover.

I really hope that when Space Marine II comes out they let you choose Titus’ pronouns just to fuck with this guy specifically

warhammer 40k loves to call itself a satire of fascism and then depicts a universe in which all of the great fascistic anxieties and beliefs of its imperium (the enemy is everywhere, it is both weak and strong, we are eternal, any violence we commit is justified, our leader is our genetic superior, degeneracy will lead to the collapse of our society) are all objectively true, completely blunting any satirical edge it could have, but giving it just enough plausible deniability that games workshop can market to anyone of any ideology

Week #20: Playing With The Boys

So I've decided to put painting Mortarion off. I don't like the direction I'm going with the paint job that's on him currently. I know I've said before that I'm falling out of love a little with my current color scheme, but I'm still unsure what to change. I like my colors, but I think I need to do something different with them.

Anyway, I can currently play 1,000 Point Games now. Which is a big deal! I've actually made it to the point of being able to play a real game of 40k. I have about three matches set up so I need to get the remainder of my points painted. I have less time than I thought, but I think I should be able to get everything painted before the games. I would prefer playing with no unpainted models, hopefully I can actually do that. So for now we just stick with the current paint job.

BIG WOMAN!!!
