Yeah Stormcast in general look much better. Sleeker or something, and love the spears.

Ended up doing this repaint it's original colors. Kind of sick of doing white now though so the next one won't have hardly any white in it.

Latest fun.
Was inspired by the Total War Warhammer 3 Trailer so decided to do a White Walker/Kislev Themed Vampire Complete with Snow Base + Ice Weapons. Might do an enitre force.

Okay, so I have a ton of Warhammer Fantasy miniatures from like 2000-2003. Mostly Empire and Wood Elf, might be some other stuff. A couple armies worth painted, a lot not even assembled. They've basically been sitting in a closet the past 20 years, and I don't see them ever getting anything done with them. Anyone have any interest in any of this stuff before I try to get rid of it elsewhere? I suppose I could try to take pictures of some of it if anyone is really interested.

Been difficult finding time to paint with work the past couple of months so I haven’t really progressed since I started this hobby. I decided to redo my Orruk MegaBoss from a couple months ago that was a thick paint layered mess and do it over. I wanted him to have pieces of Stormcast and Plague Guard plate and Night Haunt chain mail since I’m probably going to build an Orruk army.

GF bought a photo booth for her flowers. I stole it to try it out. Old build but came out a bit better with good lighting.

Not quite mini painting, but I put the rest of them here. Our SSD commission just got finished and all lit up and painted. I guess mini doesn’t quite describe it but oh well.

That is so fucking cool.

Who did this for you, and how much was it? I had an immediate and strong urge to acquire one for myself, and I don't even play Armada. I fucking love Executor/SSD's.

We got it done by GrandMoffMiniatures on Etsy who happened to be local which was convenient. We bought our SSD when it was like $200 but they're getting hard to find now (looks like there's some on Amazon for $269, yikes). The lighting we got was $750 for just the standard lighting/canon colors but he had options that went up to $1100ish. Not cheap, but his work is fantastic, super nice guy and has always been great with communication. It may not currently be listed up in his shop, but can always ping him to see if he's got one to work on and what options are available . If you can acquire the model yourself, you can also mail it to him. So far we've gotten the SSD, an Onager, Home One, Assault Frigate Mk II, Gladiator, Profundity, and an Interdictor done by him and they've all been wonderful. The SSD here took about a month and a half to two months or so to do.

Executor was so cool to me when I was a kid playing the Decipher Star Wars CCG. "This ship is so gigantic they had to rotate the card frame 90 degrees to fit the art"

Is each point of light it's own LED? Did he have to open it up and drill holes for each?

LEDs for larger things like the engines and then individual drilling/fiber for the smaller lights I believe, not 100% on that.

Yeah that’s pretty fucking cool. I bet that looks amazing on a shelf at night.

Your coffee table scratches are triggering me so bad 😩
