Although that said, I looked at the Death Company I have painted the other day and to be honest was not pleased, light years away from my best work, I have five others somewhere that maybe I can redeem myself on!
The Dark Imperium gurgle project continues, only a little bit more to go on these guys, and then a very poxwalker themed weekend awaits.
Particularly pleased with the skin on the bloat drone, although I'll vary it from pox walker to pox walker with differs degrees of washing and shading, this is kind of what I'll go for across all of them!
I also speed painted this Primaris Ancient for my game the other day. Really recommend this guy from a tactical perspective, camped in a bunker with a bunch of lascannon devastators is a nasty surprise! The forthcoming BA banner grants feel no pain as well, sweet!!
Only downside is a really don't like painting banners, it's difficult to get the smooth finish and there is usually so much detail to pick out. I think the transfers on the one above really make it. Applied with micro sol they often go on a complete dream! This photo actually highlighted (as is always the way) one or two small details that needed tweeking, like the edge on the banner and the shoulder trim bleeding onto the shoulder pad, rest assured fellow OCDists, these have now been fixed.
On the gaming side I've tried out a few lists, snapshot of Gulliman in action below leading the line:
Although I love his buffs I think the list is a touch fragile. Even with Gulliman going complete beast mode, personally claiming I think 4 Tau commanders (after making a 10" charge) I still lost. Of course there are many other factors at play, not least my own tactical intellect which definitely wondered off somewhere for this game.
I actually painted Robute over the last couple of weeks, but as I haven't really got a proper set up at the mo I haven't been snapping pictures. Finally got round to ordering a little painting station tho, so more in progress pics of various things coming soon.
