    I could give you Vulkan's grimacing bald head as an example:

    Apart from that, I can only point you in the direction of World of Warcraft content.

    Well I could not resist any longer:

    These will be taking up space in the cabinet untill I venture back in to painting Lizards again.

    Grrr, Imrahil

    So, I decided to go with the idea from @ChapterAquila92 and theme my Chaos Dwarfs skin at least against wood ash/volcanic ash.

    Wood ash

    I'm already looking forwards to it!

    Then I got some Hashut Bronze for armour and weapons, which seemed appropriate considering I'm painting the followers of the Father of Darkness.

    Enjoyed some lovely weather this afternoon airbrushing the green on the rest of my Battlefleet Heresy Salamanders.

    Behold, 2130 pts worth of ships:
    20220527_181426.jpg

    6x Fireatorm Frigates
    8x Sword Frigates
    3x Lunar Cruisers
    1x Dictator Cruiser-Carrier
    1x Eclipse Battlecruiser
    1x Dagon Grand Cruiser
    1x Desolator Battleship

    I'll probably end up going over the models with green glaze again at some point, seeing as the white I was using for zenithal highlighting is still pretty strong on some of them.

    Started on my Chaos Dwarf Bull Centaurs!

    First step, magnetizing so that I can have them firmly fixed while spraying on the undercoat

    Returned to one of my fave model shops today, and bought another second-hand haul:
    IMG_20220528_151845.jpg

    The foot and boar-mounted models from the 7th Edition Fantasy Orc Warboss kit (so pleased I found those given the kit's no longer in production - not the best sculpting but probably the first plastic character models GW ever made, so these guys are evolutionary giants, and I'm very pleased to have some Orc leaders at last to Waaagh! with), 10 multipart Orc Boyz (also OOP, planning to kitbash these into Arrer Boyz), 3 of the original plastic Fanatics (so that now all 3 of my Night Goblin units can take 3 Fanatics to play psychological tricks on my opponents), 20 25mm square bases and a heap of bitz I found in various boxes full of spares, all for £30. Perhaps I went a bit mad but I have no regrets in getting it all, they were all models I wanted for my Greenskin force.

    These guys look incredible! Can't wait to see your Rotspawn! Have you gotten any games with the Nurgle team? I hear they're difficult to play, but once you know what you're doing and level them up a bit they're difficult to play against!

    From scratch they are a little difficult. A few skills under their belt and they're fine

    When I was residing in the UK a few fellow Aussies came over to attend the NAF World Cup in Europe (probably France or Germany - I can't remember)
    Anyway they attended a NAF tournament my local club (The Chelmsford Bunker) was running. One of them gave me this lovely Ned Kelly Blood Bowl figure that had been a prize in a tournament back in Oz. I forgot I had him. Found him the other day and next step is to get some paint on him....

    I put paint on one of the sword masters from the Isle of Blood boxes and primed the weapons for my Frostgrave Knights.

    I did my black undercoating on my Bull Centaurs a couple of days ago.

    Now waiting for my grey paints to arrive to do the ash effect on their skin.

    I have been working a bit more on scenery, cutting tiles to go on the bridges and thinking about battlements.

    Grrr, Imrahil

    Got an idea for some unused Seraphon I still have laying around, of course my mind always wanders and finds these ideas that come and go. Feeling more of a person that likes the ideas but doesn't get around to doing much.
    One thing is having to go 3rd party for the bits so I won't be able to use them for any GW related thing, then I have another idea that can use up some GW spares. But I tend to prefer the first.
    So it's either messing with an Egyptian themed Seraphon project or using some leftover shields from the SW Wulfen and stuff for another project theme. Or maybe both :bag:
    Edit: Or maybe the Wulfen weapon/shield spares for the Beastmen but that means buying more Beastmen as the collection is small

    Meanwhile I have primed some more Hormagaunts as I found them on the desk and forgot about them as they wasn't in the box.
    Still got to work on painting birthday gifts and finish off and paint a sculpture for a deadline.
    A lot of work but so slow for reasons.
