Eversor Assassin =I=

No other assassin appeals to my12-year-old self, other than this guy. He's so pure, a killer absolute. I loved reading the description of his internal biology, a hellish concoction of chemicals that could only be regulated by his heartbeat. As soon as that stopped, well, 2nd edition explosions were a sight to behold!

Acastus Knight Porphyrion House Vyridion Forge World Commission

Betrayed by Fulgrim, the errant House Vyridion shed their previous sea green livery in favour for the purer black and gold of imperial majesty. No gaudy sigils of self aggrandisement, the House instead wore the Imperial Aquila, reaffirming fidelity to the Master of Mankind. 

This is a much bigger kit than you may initially think. It's a mini knight Titan (the guns are bigger than a plastic dreadnought). Making large surface areas like this interesting is challenging, especially the gold plates, but with overlapping contrasting colours you can achieve a depth of interest that you typically wouldn't be able to achieve using a brown wash. 

The knight's paint scheme was inspired by Master of Mankind  House Vyridion. The simple black and gold marks with Imperial Aquila's was made so much easier using the Custodes transfer sheet.

Dynameis Terminator Squad Blood Angel Horus Heresy

Dynameis terminator squad.  

The vaunted Dynameis formed the shock core of boarding actions of the 33rd assault division sequestered to Belarius' command. Specialising in zone mortalis actions, the Dynameis were recorded to have fought in the Sol System at the time of the siege. Infamously the surviving members formed [REDACTED]. 

My first batch of terminators are now complete. After reading the rules for Blood Angels I doubt these will see much action in games of 3k points of lower but they make perfect members of a Zone Mortalis force. The models themselves are created from the Emperor's Children Phoenix Terminatos and the Cataphractii resin kit.

The Minotaur and the Labyrinth - Iron Warriors Standard bearer commission

The motif of the labyrinth and the Minotaur is an ancient one, reinterpreted by every generation to help understand the times we live in. I became obsessed with this myth after reading The Helmet of Horror and knew it was something I'd like to incorporate into the visual language of The Iron Warriors. This is wholly unoriginal, McNeil having introduced this troupe into Angel Exterminatus.

Limited Edition Primus Medicae Sons of Horus Justerin Commission

Unlike the other Primus Medicae's I've painted the client requested this to be painted in feared Justerin plate. I didn't want to add blood effects or much in the way of grime effects as I wanted this model to be obsessively spit polished. I imagine the character is quite fastidious, relentlessly cleaning equipment, armour etc.

World Eaters Land Raider Commission Horus Heresy Scheme

Is there any other model that screams 'Heresy' more than than the Spartan Assault Tank? The thing is ubiquitous, iconic, and a ruddy great slab of resin to place front in centre of the force. I wanted this to be slightly more weathered than the other World Eaters vehicles I have painted of this force. A combination of hairspray chipping, sponge chipping and weathering powders produced this effect.

Silver Tower Stormcast Eternal Age of Sigmar commission

This is the first Stormcast Eternal I have painted - I can see lot of scope for creativity with so many clean open surfaces (I did experiment with marble on the shield).
