Found a youtube channel of the horus heresy books 1-7 (so far) which has saved me a ton of money and strain reading the actual books. I dont know about anyone else but I find all black library books a proper brain sore to read. Authors must be paid by the word with bonuses for describing devastation and desolation.

Light and Magic on Disney is pretty good, at least the first series is, the history of ILM

They’ve just put up the 2 hour 30 minute doc that was an extra on early 2 thousand DVD’s Empire of Dreams, that’s a belter

You Tube to the rescue:

Pretty stoked on tracking down this model. There’s a painting competition at my local warhammer shop in march and tempted to try and push myself to enter a diorama with this as the centrepiece.

Other recent models to build up my xenos genestealers…

100% would love to see that

Tried dry brushing areas…

I think things will look better when I add contrasts and shade.

Also all the metallics of the armour and weapons.

Not sure what colour for the skulls though?

What’s the link? I’ve tried reading some but I generally don’t enjoy reading fiction anyway, and found them hard going like you said. I thought they’d be full of big battles but it’s just pages and pages of waffle and space politics.

Knights of audible on yt

Work in progress

Kind of stoked on the colour I blended for the pile of skulls and the face details. Mighty fine brush and slow and steady hand movement.

I worked some details

Tried applying some flesh contrast but not very good with it.

Bit of contrast shading helped the skulls though and quite stoked on the rich mahogany I mixed as the base for the plinth. Flame is alright too.

Plenty more to go…

I like the shiny metal highlights. That’s a pretty gnarly claw.

Does he have a head or am I being dumb?

Green looks great. Really vibrant

Every now and again I’m gonmna pop in and say “Wow, that looks good” and then fuck off again. This is one of those days.

Fair play to you guys doing these, impressive.

This is a sense of the end result…
