    This guy pre-dates 2nd. Edition and is a Jes Goodwin sculpt, part number 070268/1.


    More pics to come as he’s painted! He can be found in White Dwarf #170 as a conversion – no painting credit alongside the pic, unfortunately:

  • Rogue Trader RTB09 Space Marine Terminator Captain

    This guy came in the RTB09 box set. He’s the Captain with Storm Bolter, Powerglove with Grenade Launcher and Force Sword.

    He needs some mold lines/flashing removed and perhaps stripping – will depend on what he looks like when his arms come off. More to come…

  • Ultramarines Paint Scheme using Scale 75 Artist paints

    Highlight: Primary Blue

    Eyes: Art White followed by Crimson, then Citadel Contrast Blood Angels Red, then shade with Instant Arcane Purple

    Gold: Necro Gold / Instant Arcane Purple / highlight Dwarven Gold / ultimate highlight Citrine Alchemy
