Cheers, I use the Vallejo's golden olive. It really pops.

 

I'm really happy with the colours

Cheers, I think it might be my only vibe when it comes to miniature painting ๐Ÿ˜‚

 

Hopefully I'll get a few more finished later this week.

None of them are.

The figures in the original post are from a kickstarter coming out later in the year, I don't have anything to do with it myself but I was lucky enough to get a set of the early casts.

The tank is one of my own designs that I 3D printed, I've uploaded it to Cults 3D https://cults3d.com/en/users/Doctor-Spork/3d-models

The other fully painted ones I posted in the comments are from a couple of places. The big fell with the sword is from L72 Miniatures https://l72smetalminiaturesmusings.wordpress.com/ and the other two are tech cultists from Checkpoint Miniatures https://www.checkpointminiatures.co.uk/shop/ftw13-tech-cultists-with-leader/

To add to this I have the patriarch and landspeeder from L72 Miniatures, a bunch more of the tech cultists to use a brood brothers, a magus from Hybrid Miniatures, the land raider proxy I designed and 3D printed and a scratch built limo that I am building from a toy car.

This was meant to be a dozen figures and a limo for playing skirmish games with because my wife bought me some of the tech cultists, but as these things often do the scope of this project has grown arms and legs. Which is sort of appropriate for a Genestealer Cult I suppose.

They're a purestrain proxy from Hybrid Miniatures, I think it's inspired on the original art work for genestealers in the Rogue Trader rulebook. I'm attempting to make the whole army from non GW miniatures.

They are really nice models, I've got another five of them to paint at some point.

Cheers, these were the first ones i finished. So in theory they should look something like this when I am done.

Cheers, there are another five and patriarch to add to this lot

[โ€“] Doctor_Spork@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Cheers.

These were the first four that I did for a game of Necromunda at BOYL, So the rest should end up looking like them.

 

Painting my space wizard was a fun little distraction, but genestealers don't paint themselves.

I've got my infantry base coated so it's time to give them a good wash.

And I've got a little squat that Chris at Ontos Games gave me at BOYL for when I'm sick of batch painting cultists.

 

Josh was kind enough to invite me on to discuss my first white dwarf, issue 169 with the cardboard battle bunker. So if you have 20 minutes to waste why not give it a watch.

I should be up for that, I've really been getting into the swing of things with my painting recently.

 

Been working away on these pair for a while. After seeing how much it was going to cost to buy an original I decided to make my own. One is inspired by the classic kit, the other by the original scratch built model from the Rogue Trader rule book. Both were printed on my Ender 3 with no supports.

They are available on my Cults3D page if anyone is interested.

Now I just need to get better at taking pictures

Not a chance, the new one is over twice the height of this fella

Another update on the Avatar, been working on a base for him as well.

 

I tidied up and uploaded my chaos predator proxy to cults3d. Like my chaos rhino this is inspired by the old Epicast model.

My version is designed to be easily printed in FDM and is available for download here https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/retro-evil-knight-battle-tank

[โ€“] Doctor_Spork@sopuli.xyz 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Time permitting I would love to.

[โ€“] Doctor_Spork@sopuli.xyz 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's one of the reasons I take so ling to paint anything, there is something like six thin coats of white paint on them all.

 

I wanted a rhino for my bezerkers so they could chop up everyone up a bit quicker so decided to design my own.

This is inspired by the old Epicast Dark Army APC

If anyone with a 3D printer is after the files I have uploaded them to Cults3D page

For all us old folks with a misty look in our eyes ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

 

I made this fella when I go some pipe rollers from green stuff world.

 

This fella was an ebay rescue that came with so much paint on it that I wasn't sure if he was actually this model. So I stripped him and did my best to give him a new lease of life as the first of my Emperors Children.

And now he is my entry for the fedipaint painting contest over on Mastodon.
