I decided that I'd post up pictures of the minis I've paitned for what is probably my favorite space marine chapters- the Salamaners. I have painted a lot of them over the years.
The first is a...
The Sunstalker campaign features the People of the Sun- an alternate group you could start out with that have some nods to Japanese clothing styles and weaponry. They’re quite distinct from the usual...
With most of the projects that I paint, my clients only send me a few units at a time. This works fine, of course, except that I rarely get to see the whole army together.
So I've decided to make...
Oh, I guess I was wrong about my sources.
How did the official solo rules work? Did they spawn extra genestealers, or just have them follow an AI?
No- the solo play rules are fan made.
Have you found the Space Hulk Bible yet?
It is a compilation of 1st ed rules- with a few home-brewed things thrown in.
I would recommend finding it (it spread around online) and using a 4th ed...
It isn't my own force- and I cannot take credit for the conversions (I only did the painting).
To be honest, I don't know the fluff behind the force- the general color scheme was my client's...
It is generally accepted that shooting is a favored marine tactic, while close combat is a favored tactic for the aliens. For this reason, the Imperial Fists are considered the most powerful Marine...
I haven't tried them, but I've not heard great things about the Genestealer expansion. It fundamentally changes the game, putting a LOT of emphasis on psykers and their psychic duels.
That might...
This might show you my age a little, but I got started in the hobby with Space Crusade.
For those who don't remember it, Space Crusade was a delightful joint project from Games Workshop and Milton...
One of the minis that first got me into gaming was the old Lord of Change.
This was a good while back- in those days, a Lord of Change was mounted on a square 40mm base, and wasn’t much larger...
Recently, I've had a couple Menoth forces cross my table. This one was made up primarily of warjacks, with a glorious Feora at the helm.
I'll post a more infantry centered one later.

What forum did people migrate to? I was used to seeing Eldargal and Erik Setzer arguing about feminism and Star Wars- I was really surprised that it ended so abruptly.
The issue here is more of a grammar one. Most of the English language considers Dice to be both singular and plural. Geek games invented the singular usage "die" but Games Workshop doesn't follow...
Here is a set of Tzeentch Daemon characters that I painted for a client. I've painted quite a few daemons for this force over time- I find I really love the bright blues and pinks of Tzeentch.

Raging Heroes have some fine sculptors, and it is always a pleasure to see some of them cross my table. Here are a few that I painted for a client. In this case, I rather think they'd fit right in...
The wedding cake toppers are all custom made for a particular couple. Sometimes, after I've posted one, another couple might want something similar, and just want a few changes.
In this case, the...
Tzeentch has always been my favorite of the Chaos gods. It might have been how the Lord of Change reminded me of a Skeksi.
Since then, Tzeentch has gone through many incarnations- with the rise...
Just a little while ago, I got to paint up a full force of Stormcast Eternals riding various drakes.
I was a little surprised by just how many Stardrakes fit into the force, and there were quite a...
Here is the Kingsman Nemesis:

And here is the Messenger of Humanity. The role of this mini...
I often get to paint up forces in some pretty interesting color schemes, and here's a nice example.
This force was going with an all blue theme- the core color for Tzeentch. The part that made it...
Creating wedding cake toppers offers me a lot of artistic variety. There are a lot of different things that people want to put on their cakes, and it always impresses me that after almost ten years...
The bones on these were pretty simple- start with the darkest color and layer up. No washes were involved, but you should make sure to thin your layer paints as the translucency is your ally- just...
I don't know that I need to say much here

Nope- that's all Metallic Metal.
I can do NMM as well, but that's not what you're seeing here.
