Order of the Hammer

This post sees me show off three new models. These are three henchmen for Inquisitor Coteaz. Two are some models I found on eBay, from another manufacturer (the ones either side of Coteaz), and an old metal GW model, on the far right. They are based on the road base to match Coteaz and the other models in this warband.

These models are very nice. They are clearly sculpted to blend in with the 40k universe, and make  excellent aides. One is carrying an ornate bolter and wears a pseudo-catholic headpiece: the other has a bionic arm and carries some sort of barrel or bomb. They are certainly unique. The other model is a classic astropath model. 

 

 

Since they are part of Coteaz's warband,  let's see them all together:

This week, I have finished a Black Legion Rhino! This is my second one, and it looks slightly different to the first - it's good to avoid identical miniatures, even with vehicles. Very easy to paint, it's one of those miniatures that's make me think, "why didn't I paint this earlier, instead of leaving it on the shelf for months?"

Well, it's done now!

 

 

 

 

 

Here it is alongside my existing rhino!

Hey folks! I am feeling enthusiastic about miniatures again. My mental state has been strange over the last few weeks, and I haven't had a lot of interest in miniatures. I suppose my mind has mostly been full of other hobbies, which is fine, but sometimes I look at my unpainted minis shelf and feel sad that I don't have the enthusiasm to paint them! 

But it now feels like the enthusiasm is coming back and I spent a solid chunk of time painting this Stormhawk Interceptor. I already had the model, painted up in the Divine Exorcists scheme, and so I've redone it to fit in with the new Minotaurs army. 

Amusingly, I thought I had finished and set it up to take photos. When I looked at them, I realised I hadn't repainted the base! The original was dark grey or black ash waste, and so I had to take it back to the painting desk and give it the proper Minotaurs colours! Now it is done! 

It's a nice aircraft - I think it's one of the better designs of aircraft that GW produces: it looks very fast and aggressive. 

Hopefully I will be uploading some more pictures over the next few weeks. I have some more models in progress on my desk, so those models are looking up at me expectantly, waiting for their fresh coats of paint!
