A Stabbin

Continuing my Assassin building I have a Callidus assassin. This based on a hasslefree miniture, some Lara Croft -esque type person. I added a massive sword and generally made her look more 40k ish. I was going to add a bunch of inquisition symbols and trinkets but I thought that it looked better without all those extra bits...


Quite a cool and elegant mini I think. She can also double up as a death cult assassin for that inquisitorial warband that I will get round to one day.

Although looking at her again I'm thinking that her gun needs to be beefed up.

Thanks for looking.

Stuttering Progress

So I've had what turned out to be a sinus infection which meant that I was feeling pretty grim for the last few weeks. 
Anyway enough moaning! I did some pretty serious airbrushing over that time and managed to basecoat most of those guardsmen from a few posts back.


Box of guard!


Still loads of detail to do, notably the red on the guns plus highlighting and the rest of the usual stuff, but you get the drift. I must admit that I am pretty intimidated about painting the character types! 

Also, a question to you airbrushers... 

During use I quite frequently get spurts of water out of the nozzle, which is incredibly frustrating since it messes up what i have been working on. Now my compressor does have a moisture trap on it, and I find that there is a load of condensation in there by the time I finish a session. So my question is how moist (fnar fnar) does yours get after and during use? I'm thinking this is the root of my problems. 

Any thoughts would be appreicated!

Thanks for reading,

Plasma Cannon Servitors

I built a pair of plasma cannon servitors. Their plasma cannons are massive! Possibly a bit too big.

Here they are at first...



Quite like the cutting blade on the dude on hte left

 And then I got the greenstuff out and they ended up looking like...
