Yarrick was a nice pallette cleanser after some artillery teams. Not absolutely happy with the black. When I figure out how to sort it, I shall. #warhammercommunity #hobby #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhammer #40k

The new(ish) Commissar Yarrick miniature painted with his big shiny red claw.

The same, but from the back showing off his surprisingly large backpack. Also shiny red.

Opties! Well, Buggies? I didn't realise just how much more real estate there was to paint on these guys compared to humans. #warhammercommunity #hobby #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhammer #40k #nerdlings

Three Bullgryns stood on a wall. Looking very generic in blue and red, carrying the big shields and mauls.

She's been hanging around, primed, for ages while I was distracted. Now, she'll make an excellent Cadian Castellan. #warhammercommunity #nerdlings #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhammer #40k

Minka Lesk in her latest miniature guise, painted and dramatically posing in her tactical rock.

Minka again, showing off another angle. Nice red Bolt Pistol to match the rest of my army and a shiny blue scabbard.

I really like this model. The Necromunda sculpts are great. Anyway, another ammo based hanger on for my gang. #warhammercommunity #hobby #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhammer #40k #necromunda

One Necromunda ammojack carrying an oddly green power sword. Mainly various shades of green and brown, with surprisingly normally coloured hair.

Tank tanks tanky taaaaank. Tank. A present from my wonderful wife last year, and I just got around to painting it. I look forward to it lasting 1 turn in a match. #warhammercommunity #hobby #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhammer #40k #nerdlings

Baneblade butt shot! Lovely little shrine to the omnissiah. Green barrels, all the armour a different shade of green. A little paint wear, a little mud. Nothing that would trigger the cleanliness of commissars

A nice side shot of a green baneblade. Red bits on the guns to highlight the shooty bits. Bad camouflage, but it's a rolling building with guns, so what?

Front of a green baneblade. Obviously not too muddy where it's been rolling.

Les Scions, they are complete. This picture shall also go into the book I'm writing in how to photograph miniatures incredibly badly. #warhammercommunity #hobby #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhammer #40k

A group of 5 painted Tempestus Scion 40k miniatures on a splendid grotty green cutting board background. They're looking all fancy in purple and gold armour.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 3mo ago

I'm hand painting a baneblade. My <insert chosen deities or snack manufacturer> have mercy on my soul. Also, I'm so bad at posting. #warhammercommunity #hobby #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhamer #40k

A black primed baneblade with the starting of a first coating of green covering, like, a quarter of the tank. The main gun is delicately shoved on one of the aerials. You can smell the regret.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 4mo ago

You know when you paint something and end up really proud, but then photo it and your old eyes can see the details? Yeah. Still like this one though. He might stand out amongst the Cadians. #warhammercommunity #hobby #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhamer #40k

A tempestus scion 40k miniature in purple and gold armour. They're facing left, holding out a gold plasma pistol.

Same scion from the back. Showing off a backpack and his purple power fist.

Finally, the scion from the front. He has a red beret, a purple face mask to match his armour and bright green eye lenses.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 5mo ago

The end of an era. I shall now count time from the point I finished these guys. I've been at them on and off for ages. So nice models, so bloody fiddly. #warhammercommunity #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #warhamer #40k

A squad of attilan rough riders, all fancy in blue and red.

Close up, low shot of the atillan rough riders. Showing the sergeant pointing towards the nearest kebab shop with his sword.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 5mo ago

Just finished Dr. Mulder for my friend's Necromunda gang. Now onto his servoskull. Skully. #warhammercommunity #necromunda #warhammer40000 #paintingminlatures #paintingwarhammer #40k

A necromunda rogue doc in a dirty white coat and, well, I hope that's dirty on his tek finger blades.

Doc from the back. Showing off his disturbing backpack and stabby servo arm.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 5mo ago

I've been building up these tiles for a while now. Time to drag them to the shop I'm playing my campaign at. More scenery is always good. #warhammer40000 #3dprinter #minipainting #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #40k #nerdlings #necromunda

All these pictures are of a very crowded Zone Mortalis - esque Necromunda board. It's crowded with everything I've made.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 5mo ago

Spent even more time to give the dude I'm never going to use a place of his own. I'm not obsessive, you're obsessive. Shush! #warhammer40000 #hobby #3dprinter #minipainting #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #40k #nerdlings #necromunda

Dodgy Alan the Necromunda bullet merchant in front of his ammo shop. It's a rusty, manky looking necromunda tile.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 5mo ago

I spent way too much time on a dude that'll never turn up in a fight in our Necromunda campaign. I do like how games with limited model counts make each one a character. No rank and file. #Necromunda #minipainting #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #40k #nerdlings

A necromunda bullet merchant. Dressed up as an Orlock, but wearing a Kasrkin helmet of dubious origin. He's carrying more ammo of various types than is safe. With a bandolier and chains of ammo draped where they fit. Plus, another crate on the ground with a makeshift strap that he really should carry over his shoulder. But, he got tired.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 5mo ago

Little workshop done for my Orlocks. Kudos to SevenUnited for the furniture, though a pile is all me. Very proud of the stairs. Anyhow, Dodgy Alan's Ammo Shop is next! #warhammer40000 #hobby #3dprinter #minipainting #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #40k #nerdlings #necromunda

The ground floor of a manky necromunda tile. There are crates, some spiral stairs and a lot of rust.

The top of the workshop, with a small crane and workbenches

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 6mo ago

Bought and painted this to say thank you to a friend. My first experience of resin. Still better than 90s metal! Great model too, and I hope it's fun to use in a campaign #Necromunda #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #warhammer40k

A green scaled sump croc from the depths of necromunda. With a purple and pink mohawk, of course.

The sump croc from the back, showing his mysterious red backpack. I suspect it's full of bacardi.

Portrait shot of the sump croc. Showing off his gold tooth.

Side shot showing his fancy gold necklace chain.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 6mo ago

Are these anyone else's nemesis? Little horsey gits.

A 40K Atillan horse dude, on a horse. One small model containing all the rage in the universe. So pretty. So spiteful. Anyhow, he's all brightly painted in red and blue just like Cadians aren't. Well, half painting. At this point I was questioning my life choices.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 6mo ago

Finished up a starter Goliath gang for a friend. First time I've ever tried contrast paints. Oooh, they're weird. #Warhammer #W40k #WarhammerCommunity #paintingminis #paintingWarhammer #nerdlings #necromunda

A Goliath Necromunda gang all painted up and posing for a group photo

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 8mo ago

So, visiting the parents for Christmas and they've presented me with a few things they found while tidying. A bit of a blast from the 90s past! #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

A brightly painted 1990s techmarine, with zero effort put into the base.

A metal 40k dreadnought from when the imperial fists were more neon and less grimdark

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 10mo ago

Big guns! Coats they found laying around somewhere. Mud! #paintingminiatures #warhammer40000 #hobby #warhammer #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity

A 40k astra militarum field gun crew with a quad mortar. Kitbashed Cadians rather than Krieg crew

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 10mo ago

The nearest I can easily get to a Cadian field artillery gunner. I'd love a non-Krieg alternative. #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity

An unpainted half-krieg, half-cadian artillery gunner miniature. Unpainted and dramatically posing on the edge of a big miniature base.

A warhammer 40k miniature. A monk looking guy in red robes wearing a blindfold. It's probably unsafe, but he's also carrying an eviscerator chainsword

My kitbashed inquisitor. For whom I have no name yet and am not entirely happy about the paint job. #Warhammer #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

A warhammer 40k miniature on a painting stand. She's carrying a rather large plasma gun

@tartanyak.bsky.social · 12mo ago

Finally finished the Escher and Delaque gangs that come in #necromunda box. #warhammer40k #paintingminiatures

A painted Delaque necromunda gang posing in front of a couple of manky cargo containers on some concrete steps that have seen better days. They're incredibly pale skinned, have brown trench coats and dark blue highlights. Bright red eyes too

It's an escher gang's turn on the steps. Purple and (dirty) white clothes, with each having a different colour hair.

@tartanyak.bsky.social · last yr.

My wife bought me a Baneblade. That's true love, I reckon.
