  • Legion of the Damned Flamer

    Legion of the Damned Flamer

    I bought this chap new in the 90s (part number 010109604) and found him again in 2022 after not seeing him for close to 20 years. Here’s how he was when I found him again:

    1998 on the tab. Not much of the original paintjob survived. Perhaps I forgot to prime…

  • Space Marine Veteran with Mace

    Space Marine Veteran with Mace

    This guy is part number 9947010130007 and comes with a power maul, presumable – or power mace?

    Can’t make out the date, unfortunately.

    He’s got some serious artificer armour vibes going on – looks like a Mk8 Errant style gorget but none of the rest of it looks nearly as recent…

    WIP of the maul:

    Painted 6th June 2022:

    Undercoat: Vallejo Mecha Black

    Blue: Scale75 Artist Cobalt Blue, highlighted with Primary Blue, shaded with Prussian Blue, highlighted with a blend of Art White and Primary Blue, ultimate highlight of just Art White. Same scheme for the armour and the maul, just blended at different rates.

    Red: Scale75 Light Skin, followed by Primary Red. Highlight of Orange, further highlight Intense Yellow. Shaded with Crimson, recess shade of Crimson/Art Black. Purity Seals Primary Red followed by Inktense Crimson.

    White: Scale75 Pearl Grey followed by Art White. Highlight of Inktense White. Shade of Inktense White/Inktense Black.
