A photo of ten fully-painted Nurgle poxwalkers. They're gross distended zombie-looking things with big bone spikes growing out of them, some have pink tentacles, there's lots of pustules all over their bodies, and they're brandishing all sorts of makeshift pieces of industrial equipment as weapons.

BOOM, Poxwalkers are done! (Bar the varnishing anyway, which it's too hot to do right now). Super-happy with how these came out.

A photo looking out of our back room, which has full-length panelled glass windows. The light inside is warm, and outside it's grey and raining.

Extremely cozy in here right now.

A photo of a really angry looking storm front, even more nasty-looking than the last photo.

Haven't seen a storm front quite like this for a while. Though granted I'm also not normally out in the back room and getting a front row seat to it either.

A photo of a VERY ominous-looking storm front over the top of some suburban houses.

Incominggggg!

A photo of ten half-painted Nurgle poxwalkers. They're gross distended zombie-looking things with big bone spikes growing out of them, some have pink tentacles, there's lots of pustules all over their bodies, and they're brandishing all sorts of makeshift pieces of industrial equipment as weapons.

Okay, today's project (which I suspect will run into tomorrow) is going to be to get the rest of my Poxwalkers finished.

A photo of a Plague Marine from Warhammer 40,000. He's a big green lumbering armoured thing, he's got a grenade launcher-looking gun in one hand, the other is a tentacle, and he's got a fleshy tube thing going into his helmet like it's supplying oxygen (it's totally not oxygen though).

Plague Marine number two is done! I've got a third one as well, all three are from the "First Strike" mini 40K box set (someone at work bought it for the Space Marines but didn't have need of the Death Guard), but it's just one with a bolter which I've already got plenty of.

I DO have a box of seven more Death Guard on the way though, and they have lots of weapon customisation options. 😀

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog sitting in the doorway of our back room looking out into the backyard.

A photo of a Plague Marine from Warhammer 40,000. He's got green armour with skulls in various places, plus horns ripping through the armour on one shoulder and purple tentacles coming out from various armour joints. His head is corpulent and has pustules on it, and his abdomen has a large mouth with teeth bursting through the armour there. On the base is a white Imperial Guard helmet lying on the ground as though he's just killed them.

And we're done! Super-happy with how this came out. It's not entirely obvious from the photo, but I put glossy varnish on the skin and tentacles so it looks wet and extra gross.

A photo of a Plague Marine from Warhammer 40,000. He's fully painted except for drybrushing and the base, and it looks like there's been layers of paint and washes, except there hasn't been thanks to the magic of Contrast paint!

Have I mentioned how much I love Games Workshop's Contrast paints? With the exception of the metallic bits which are regular metallic paints with Agrax Earthshade over them, the rest of this is entirely a single layer of Contrast paint.
