Good evening gents.

I think I've started this blog because............well?....... I'm not sure why really, but here it is anyway.

I'll mainly be posting pics of oldschool WFB3rd ed, ROC & RT minis, as well as WIP pics of my artistically deranged creations.

So, without further ado, let's begin;


First up is a pic of an Ultramarine. He's one of a ten man squad that I'm in the process of painting up (along with a bunch of other RT minis).

Burn baby! Burn!!!!


I decided a homage to one of my all-time favourite diorama's from Rogue Trader would get my enthusiastic juices flowing (insert crude NSFW comment here). I'm trying to replicate the colour scheme & insignia of the Ultramarine's depicted in Dave Andrews master piece.

Is this a trap Fred? It most certainly IS a fucking trap Barry!!!!


And here's a close up of the marines in question,

Ahhh, don't you just love their sense of comradere? Dying together.


This grand undertaking began a couple of weeks ago when myself and "Rob_s" - "6 Iron Spikes"- decided that we should play some RT scenarios. It should kick off in about a month or so..... just enough time to paint up some more dudes & terrain.

Enjoy :)

  1. OMG I cant believe how gay this blog is ... am I doing it right :)

    That diaroma was a favourite, it was from a time when spacemarines where mortal and died in droves in both illustrations and diaroama's. Then somehere along the lines they became the pinup boys of the company and got all superhuman. I remember when marines used to have beaks god damn it! Get off my lawn!

    The Ultramarine looks good. You drybrushed him yeah? Normally I hate drybrushing. I have some foam core waiting to be turned into terrain for when your back onshore. I just have to find the motivation. Building terrain feels like a chore.
