Here is the rest of the images of the converted banshees.  Again, being all metal made this project far more challenging!  The bases were sculpted from Sculpey.

Howling Banshee conversions using Kabuki miniatures: Gallery #1

Here's the first batch of images taken of a squad of Banshees that were made using the heads of (mostly) older GW banshees, and some Kabuki female assassin style minis.  These were not the easiest of conversions, since everything was metal.  Thank goodness for razor saws!  There were a few that took some fancy pinning and green stuff to create.

Winter color Harlequins on sculpted bases: Gallery #1

This group of figures was done with a wintry set of hues, set on scuplted rock bases to enhance the theme.  The bases were done with sculpey.

Sculpted Witchhunter Female Inquisitor

While I didn't actually do the sculpt itself, I enjoyed painting this a great deal.  There were lots of very fun details!

Adepticon 40k Tournament Objective Markers, Grey Knights

I just finished these off last night, after yet another long day of working on the Civil War Dwarfs army board.  These may not even be necessary, but they look neat and will be nice decoration to the army board. ;-)  I put some extra weights in the bottom, and they are magnetized as well.

I had intended to do several more of these, with Inquisitors, cherubs, etc., but time is running out, and this will have to suffice!

Sanguinary Guard gallery # 2

Here's another set of Sanguinary Guard images.  I believe the base color was a Tausept Ochre mixed with walnut, or hormagaunt purple in the shadow areas where I wanted it to be slightly cooler.  I even mixed scorpion green with some flesh tones to create some of the mid range colors which needed to be warmer, but with a greenish touch.

If I needed a very light color that was a cooler hue, I would mix some bright yellows with space wolves grey, being careful not to make it too greenish!
