November 2021 WIP

 A rare sighting in my hobby life this morning...the bottom of a pot of GW paint.  Probably only the second or third pot I've ever actually finished in almost thirty years of hobbying.  Only painted consistently the last ten months so the math probably checks out.  A good deal of paint dried in the lid and top of the pot but a majority of the Lead Belcher made it onto gun barrels, servo arms, etc.



Working on some conversions and porting over a D&D miniature as an underhive beast. Left to right:

  • Trying to turn a Reaper ork into Rattus Tatterskin. Basic pose is there. Need to find a good heavy stubber and add lots of rats, candles, face mask, etc.

  • Making a Reaper necromancer into a twin chain axe murderpriest for a Cawdor/Redemptionist gang. Darn Sump City Radio always given me ideas.

  • D&D Brain Collector seems like a good Underhive or sump beast. More thought and paint needed as always.

  • A mix of Reaper Bones and Hasslefree barbarians for use as a Ratskins gang. Can't decide if I should try using chaos helot gang rules or come up with something else to base the conversions on.

October 2021 Modeling



Managed to finish 25 models in October:
  • 8 scrunts/skrunts to bring my total to 23.
  • 5 hive scum
  • 12 Last Chancers



Up to 23 scrunts now.  Time to buy more skitarii heads for
another set of conversions when the mood strikes.

Five hive scum that were originally intended as members of an IG killteam for the 2018 release.  Hive militia, factorum worker and a gunslinger with the rare correct number of empty holsters.



Last Chancers with conversions for everyone but whichever member was armed with an lasgun and pistol(Grease Monkey, I think)  Used a autogun/pistol armed metal Escher model instead.  Need to find my White Dwarf Annual with their rules.
