Weekly Finds #92

Helmet of Horror Concept by Lil Loser from Lillegend Studio - A unique variation on the Talos Pain Engine.  It's nice to see an old haemonculus miniature being used. However, the current model is more suitable as it adds to the illusion of hanging from the helmet. The Penitent Engine pilots would also make for suitable victims with some minor alterations. Regardless, this is a stunning kit bash and could easily find itself in a Chaos Space Marine army. Possibly even an Ad Mech themed Imperial Guard army.

Mariners Blight Sneak Peek by Lucky No.5 from Eye of Error - This is one of the many armies I keep coming back to see the steady progress. Lucky No.5's ability to convert miniatures is disgusting with a great blend of kit bashing and sculpting. However, my favourite element of this growing army of decay is the weathering.

Masterclass Snow Effects by Jarhead from Massive Voodoo - There are heaps of tutorials on how to apply snow to bases with this being the third by Roman... my favourite methods are those shown by Mister Justin using how Secret Weapon Miniatures crushed glass.

Terminator Chaplain by RuneCast from RuneCast Blog - I love Rune Cast's Black Templar miniatures. They are mind blowing. Mad Matt does them justice with his painting. However, it is frustrating not being able to find the source of those hobby chains as the link Rune Cast provides is broken.

Saturday Night Report and Banana Milk by Jarhead from Massive Voodoo - Some great Work In Progress pictures of this bust. Get an idea of how it has progressed when compared with pictures from this post...

Shooting at Vehicles in Cover by David from No Turtles Allowed - This article caught my attention as it highlighted a minor but critical change from 5th to 6th Edition. The top of the vehicle hull has no relevance when it comes to determining vehicle facing. This was huge for me as there are several players at my FLGs who play with flyers... damn Necrons.

How to Airbrush Leathery Bat-Like Wings by Lucky No. 5 from Eye of Error - This looks to be a stunningly quick result. And I imagine the results could be further enhanced with techniques taken from David Soper's own tutorial on panting Scourge Wings. I also strongly suggest his guide on stippling.

Sixth Edition Big Yellow Book Missions Pt 1 by Kirby from The Pinktastic Blog - A simple break down of the new and, in my humble opinion, superior missions from a competitive point of view.
