Red Reinforcements. Basing is going to be done at the very end, and the armored car needs its decals/freehand slogan, and then weathering after.
Some in-progress Mongols. I didn't have enough time to finish them tonight but they're coming along nicely.
Reds. WGA plastics and a Copplestone figure. More to do.
It occurs to me that some context for all of these cats and their world might be desirable, but I'm not really a fan of the idea of posting "lore dumps" in a vacuum as it feels like a lot of uninvited rambling about a personal setting. I'm not really sure what to do about that. Short-form fiction?
More peasants inbound. These are going to be single pose models, but with different outfit, head, and weapon options. The designs are drawing from assorted Chinese warlord era photos, as well as ashigaru kit (the sausage link thing is partitioned rice rations, for example.)
Peasant pearcat mark 1. I'm pretty happy with how she came out, and now I just need to make a few "generic" spearcat poses, then vary them with different clothing styles and heads. Pictured with the Haomao demo model for scale (who I need to revise because I made them taller lol.)
I assure you, spear skirmishers are an absolutely vital part of the science fiction arms race.
Some Spacekneckt mercenaries for my buddy's game, Wanted! Reward: cc 10000. Posting here for accountability (social media indirectly peer pressuring me into painting)
It's been a bit since I posted some of my cats. I've been working on expanding the parts library for the Haomao peasantry, so I can make a multipart kit of armored line troops and unarmored skirmishers. And also something that nobody needs to worry about.
I really need to get back to sculpting my own stuff, but painting so often has been therapeutic and contemplative, which I need recently. WIP Steel Legion Sergeant, by Tiny Legend. Probably the best option out there for those who want something that hews close to the source designs.
Refurbishing some old Chimeras; adding drop-in cupolas for the assorted 3.5e codex weapon options. Really quite happy with the vehicle commanders.
Brasshead as photogenic as ever amidst the champions of the legion, with Slambo aura farming offscreen lol.
Very rarely do I get to take my full legion of Iron Warriors out of the box, but last night's 40k 4th edition event at LA Wargames was the correct time.
vacation marker painting these things haunt the underhive
...and Slambo, Warrior of Chaos (in the grim dark of futurewar millenium)
Keeping up with the momentum, a Khorne-dedicated Rhino with the Destroyer Upgrade...
I got this Chaos Renegade a few years ago at a swap meet and have been using him as a Chaos Lord/Lieutenant. I decided to add on to his original owner's paintjob to preserve the history of the mini. Such a wonderful sculpt, like a grotesque little totem to darkness. Base needs some work, lol.
I am no brand acrylic paint markers' strongest soldier. These things are incredible.
Been experimenting with some cheap paint pens I got off of Amazon upon the recommendation of Summon Lesser Maker on youtube. They're pretty good for less than $20! And a lot brighter and more saturated than the colors I'm used to working with, at that.
I bought a bunch of 20mm bases with the express intent of basing any funny little guy like this that I find in plastic kits. Highly recommend for any fans of funny little guys.
It's been a bit since I posted some actual miniatures. Neo-Soviet Power Armored Troops (the miniatures are from VOR: The Maelstrom.
The Magistrate's Judgement, in .44 long barrel and snubnose.
Late night flow state possession; this is just a very rough WIP block-out of a Haomao Clan Magistrate; as the local steppe warlord, you hire her to listen to your peasants complain so you don't have to. I've got a good feeling about this one.
fan art for @phixsystems.bsky.social upcoming syndicat tabletop rpg. I wanted to draw a bounty hunter on this planet with a gun arm
I lied I fucking love painting!!! I love snazz goons with flash lasguns!!! The test piece for this season's Delaque scheme; the rest are now at least basecoated but not ready for photo time yet.
Painting some red sailors. The actual sailor (with the blue shirt) is one of my favorites, though I think his shirt needs additional highlighting.
