This silence offends Slaanesh! More! LOUDER!

Blimey there's a name from the past. I remember painting a Citadel Miniature (white metal job) of a demon of Slaanesh. That would have been around 1986-7ish. Four armed thing and looked bloody nasty! That was before Warty-Forty really took off.

I moulded a little skull out of Milliput, with a tiny snake running in through the base and out of an eye socket. I separated a foot from the base and lifted it up a bit and stuck the skull under it. White metal is quite soft but you have to be careful. I spent quite a while modelling "grass" and such. The grass went from a dead looking green/brown around the demon to normal in a sort of circle of ruin.

Nowadays my eyesight can barely see a 00 brushes' bristles, let alone let me use one.
