I’ve been intending to update the Marines for a week now, but wound up working longer hours than usual at both of my other jobs, so only just got caught up… I performed an arm swap on the first Heavy Bolter marine, to bring the weapon up into more of a ‘bringing to bear’ pose, [...]
It helps sometimes to have a large and assorted collection of miniatures… I’ve been introducing a couple of teenage relatives to the joys of Warhammer 40K, setting them up with basic armies to get them started and running through some games of varying sizes with different army lists to get used to the rules. We [...]
I did a little more work on the Sternguard’s Heavy Bolter, folding up the bipod and adding a carry handle. Still a little more detail work to go.
I started my Red Corsairs way back in the grim darkness of 2nd edition. Since there was no model for Huron Blackheart at the time, I (rather badly) converted one up based on the Blood Angels’ Commander Dante, but was never entirely happy with it and eventually ripped it apart for bitz. When I updated [...]

Made a little more progress on my Imperial Dragons squad, adding the flames to their right shoulder pads: It’s been quite a few years since I did any of these, and in that time GW have changed their washes… so I’m not sure if the roughness of these is down to my rusty technique or [...]
One member of the Sternguard squad will be a comm specialist, equipped with a vox-pack and auspex (just for show). The Vox-pack is made from a Cadian backpack, with the bottom and sides trimmed down and the bottom and vents from a Marine backpack added on. The auspex is a regular auspex top and base [...]
An update on my current (and last) commission job, a ‘true scale’ Space Marine Sternguard squad. Working at the moment on torsos: For those who haven’t seen the original thread in the now closed UTC Forums, click the ‘Read more’ button for a summary of what’s been done on these guys so far…
Got in some more painting time on the weekend, and so started adding the detail on my fleshing-out squad of Imperial Dragons.
