Chaos : Abyssal Chroneas finished !

Today I finished the Abyssal Chroneas from Mantic. It has been on the paint table for several weeks now and I found it was the time to finish it. I really like this model. It looks amazing ! But it's height ( +/- 11 cm ) is the party-killer. I would like to see this guy in the 17,5 - 21 cm range. Then this guy would be the ultimate opponent for all Chaos themed miniatures. ( & with the same price as his little brother : : : :  unstoppable ! )

This fire colossus almost painted itself ( even with my issues lately to get anything painted ).

I started with the airbrush , then lots of drybrushing & washes / glazes.

And this is the result ! Another eye-catcher for my Chaos army.

Stormcast Eternals : 3 Aetherwingz finished !

I painted up 3 Aetherwingz for my Stormcast army.

 I"ve painted these together with the female Dwarf a few weeks ago. And I didn't have the time nor energy to take pictures and post them here.

I'm struggling for some time now to paint anything... And this week I got the final blow that totally destroyed all my creativity & drive to paint ( or do anything ).

I'm not going to get further into that ( depressing ) , but I hope to get myself back on track as soon as possible...

Female Dwarf warrior finished !

 I finished the first female Dwarf from Atlantis miniatures.

 She is painted in the usual color-scheme of my Dwarf army.

She has a base made with the Runic rolling pin from Green stuff world.

 And here the last 2 pictures , taken without flash.

Paint Table Saturday 242th edition !

Paint Table Saturday 242th edition !

 Welcome to paint table 242 !

Left base-coat & wash , right next step drybrush red. 

 I've started 3 new projects without finishing the others , so far.

2 Bloodthirsters and a Abyssal Chroneas.

I've resprayed one bloodthirster and started over as I didn't like the wingz. ( Paint Table Saturday 236 ) and started simultaneous on the second Bloodthirster. As I was doing lots of reds I dragged the Abyssal Chroneas ( Mantic ) in to be painted as well.

So far the bloodthirsters skin is done ( maybe I'll add a last highlight , not sure yet ) and the fire is done on the Chroneas ( maybe last highlight of white will be added , not sure yet )

And another 2 projects that await completion ...

That's it for this weeks paint table , see you all next week !

Paint Table Saturday 241th edition !

Paint Table Saturday 241th edition !

Welcome to paint table 241 !

Not much to report , little progress on the Stormcast Eternals Liberators. And no progress on the Dwarf females from Atlantis miniatures.

I'm struggling lately to get anything painted. I'm falling behind on schedule ( 20 mini's / month ) , I'm already 30 miniatures behind. That means I have to catch up. And the way I'm painting now , I'll never catch up. 

I don't know how much time you all have to paint , but lately life is stealing my painting time and there isn't much to begin with.

Also work is draining me and makes me fall asleep during painting time.

How do you all do it? Tips and advise are always welcome !

That's it for this weeks paint table , see you all next week !

Paint Table Saturday 240th edition !

Paint Table Saturday 240th edition !

 Welcome to paint table 240 !

 I received my order from Atlantis miniatures this week. Female Dwarfs !

I find these female Dwarfs the best looking models so far ( = available at this moment ).

I prepared them , base-coated them (white) and started painting.... Base colors for skin & hair are done , wash for skin & hair also done... And I started to finish 1 model (all base colors & washes done , just highlighting )

 I also converted 5 Liberators Stormcast Eternals today & base-coated them.

And I also played quite a lot of time with some clay and my texture rolls from Green Stuff World.

But from that I haven't made any pictures as the clay is drying up side down ( with the texture face down , so you can't see it ). 

Picture not from this time , but from last project as example.

That's it for this weeks episode of the paint table , see you all next week !

Paint Table Saturday 239th edition !

 I finished a standard-bearer for my Chaos army.

First I emptied my paint table and put all ongoing projects on hold.

And then I started on this fellow. It's a miniature from MOM miniatures. And I made a slight adjustment / conversion. I swapped heads so it would fit better with my army.

 I really love big expressive banners. Real eye-catchers !

So no pictures of the paint table as it is empty at the moment.

This was Paint Table Saturday 239th edition ! See you all next week !
