Garviel Loken & Ezekyle Abaddon - Sons of Horus - Forgeworld

Hello everyone!

I managed to get my little side project finished, just before I travel to MWW in Malmø this weekend, it was I close call but I managed to get Loken finished.

If you've read this blog long enough you might remember that I've painted this miniature before, 4 years ago actually. I think it might have been the first Horus Heresy miniature I painted.

Even though I pretty much only play Traitor Sons of Horus, I really wanted to paint a new version of Loken more fitting in the style of my army.

I also don't think I've posted about Abaddon really other than the "Paint Justaerin Black" tutorial I did a while back so decided to include a few more pictures of him as well.

Hope you like them :)

 I'll try to take some pictures at MWW, so until next time

Anvillus Pattern Dreadclaw - Sons of Horus - Forgeworld

Hello everyone

Its been a while since my last post, but this project took a lot longer than I had originally anticipated.
I'm going to my first every Horus Heresy tournament in a week in Malmø, Sweden, and this had to be finished or else my Weaponmaster Veterans wouldn't have anything to ride around in :-p

If you check out my Instagram you'll be able to see a lot of WIP pictures of the whole painting process, just the masking stages took freaking days. But it did luckily get done in the end after way too many hours of painting.

It's painting in the exact same way as I paint all my Sons of Horus, so if you want to know how I usually go about doing that, check out my tutorials here.

Anyway, enjoy some more pictures :-)

I'm currently working on another small Sons of Horus project and with a little luck, I'll be able to post about that in a few days :-) if you can't wait check out my Instagram.

Until next time.

Deredeo Dreadnought - Sons of Horus - Forgeworld

Hello everyone

Quick little post today as I just wanted to show my latest addition to my Sons of Horus Army, a Deredeo Dreadnought with all weapon options.

Next project will probably be a Dreadclaw drop pod I think, but I haven't decided yet.

Hope you like it
Until next time

Grog Strongjaw - Critical Role - Steamforged Games

Hello everyone

As some might know I'm a big fan of the show Critical Role and have painted other miniatures inspired by their campaign. The show was the sole reason I got into Pen & Paper RPG's in the first place, going from never having played before to now playing in 3 active campaigns across 3 different systems.

Last year (I think) they teamed up with Steamforged Games to produce 2 sets of miniatures covering both of their campaigns on Kickstarter. Naturally, I backed it but sadly didn't get around to paint them when I received my pledge. Having recently started watching their second campaign again from where I left off (only about 50 episodes behind....so about 200 hours :-p), life getting in the way of spending 4-5 hours a week watching the show, I felt it was time to start painting them.

I'm currently in the middle of painting another model, but in between varnish & oils drying I painted the first of the characters from the miniature set covering their first campaign. I managed to paint it 2-3 evenings, so I think I will be able to paint the remaining minis fairly quickly.

Anyway, let me present my second rendition of Grog Strongjaw.

  

  

I hope you like it and hopefully I will have the rest of Vox Machina painted in no time ;) then The Mighty Nine.

Until then
Chris
