Dark Heresy chaos sorceror

A good friend of mine asked me to help him with a model he converted. It is made of different GW parts and is going to be a chaos sorceror in his Dark Heresy campaign.

Big Update - I'm back!

After six months of absence I am back to blow the dust from the shelves again and begin updating my blog about what I have been up to recently.

BloodBowl Lizardmen - Building the team

In the last few years I haven't been playing blood bowl on the tabletop, but used the pc / psp version  instead. And since it is much easier to try new teams I abandoned my long time favourite orcs and gave some others a go. Of all the teams that I tried I liked the playstyle of the Lizardmen the most, so I decided to make a tabletop crew for them.

A thing that goes bump in the dark...

The ClaphamWargamers Guild organised a Malifaux story event day and I intend to take a Dead Rider in my crew. As the official model is not out yet, I looked around for a few proxies.

Shopping and getting sidetracked

Having run out of some main materials over the holidays I thought it was time to stock up a bit. Fortunately CassArt had a sale on so I could save some money on this.

Counters, markers and bases for Malifaux

The tournament is next weekend. I have already given up on painting all my minis but I have to get ready with all markers and counters for my crew.

The pied piper of Hamelin wip#1

Hamelin the Ratcatcher is a mercenary character in the Malifaux universe themed around the old fable of the pied piper of Hamelin. And a very nice sculpt with exciting details.

More dead stuff

My latest order has arrived!

Nicodem convert finished + some Totems

After I let the putty cure all day yesterday I could finish Nicodem today. The lantern got two bars on the sides and an extra rim on the base and I completed Nico's hand.

Nicodem grows a hand

My better half is out with colleagues so I got a quiet night in. :) Therefore I carried on with Nico's right arm.

New year, new Nicodem

Back on the  Wyrd Forum I saw a very nice conversion for Nicodem, the undertaker. Originally Nico has a vulture resting on his right arm. AntiZombie took the bird off and gave him a lantern (see thread here). As much as I like the vulture I think the lantern suits the mini more,  so I stole the idea.

Hanging Tree #3

I also carried on making the Hanging Tree by sculpting up the trunk. I can already see that this plasticlay won't work out well. It dries very easily and probably shrinks so it will crack on the wire.

Hanging Tree

My eyes decided that I don't want to paint any more today, so I had to find something else to do. I wanted to make some terrain elements for Malifaux anyway, so I started with a Hanging Tree.
