Inquisitor Cassar WIP III

Yeah dudes! I'm on a spree here! Without any doubts I started painting Inquisitor Cassar, trusting my intuition and choosing colours on the fly, being elemental...





Pretty pale colours, have to admit. That was actually my only plan when restricting the palette of colours. Warm red will give a nice contrast to white skin and brown-purplish leather coat.

Inquisitor Cassar WIP II






I'm pretty pleased by how I've been improving my greentuffin' skills lately. I was able to work out some fine details this time, thanks to some of my new sculpting tools. The one thing that I was particularly afraid to sculpt was the coat as I've never done anything like stiff cloth/leather before, but I think I pulled it out pretty well.

Hope I can get him primed today so that I can finally start applying some paint...

Inquisitor Cassar WIP I

I received my precious little package of bits from the UK this week. After inventoring the bits I decided to start building my next grande project, Inquisitor Cassar.

Here's the results so far...



Weekend well spent, so to speak. Never the less, I'm quite satisfied by the outcome so far. I'm not sure if I'll be arming his left hand with a sword or a gun. What do you think?

Punk Moth WIP - The Twinz


The twins are now basecoated & ready for painting. I used the trusty ol' zenithal highlight technique again. I love this style of basecoating, since it shows the direction of the light nicely right from the start.

Basing was done using "JB" method - Baking soda & fine sand. That method leaves the base quite minimal but allows more room for the miniature to "breathe" - my other favorite technique =) (just take a look any of Mr. Blanche's amazing miniatures and you understand what I am talking about) Nicodemus is there for size comparison.

Inquisitorial Archives: Skullhopperre II

Skullhopperre II

Operation Punk Moth keeps thickening. Had some weird wormhole attacking to my schedules and this thing came out of my head. The Imperial Inquisition has been documenting and investigating Inquisitor Cassar's doings for many years.

The hunt is about to begin...

Twins - Retinue Completed

Whoa! this thing grew epic. I had to mount him on bigger 40mm round base to make him fit. I think these brothers will out-shadow my Inquisitor but that's just the unexpected direction where I want to go.









The Project Punk Moth's phase one -  The Egg Stage - is now almost in it's end. Only the Inquisitors are missing anymore. Im quite happy that we start to work on those Inquisitors at the same time with Kari. It will be "The Grande Finale" of this first phase.

Can't wait to start painting these guys,)!
