Khador Demolisher.

Here there is the Khador Demolisher I´ve just finished. As you can see, it has the army-wide red left pauldron.


As ever the photos aren´t the best out there, that is cause I took them with my cell phone.


 As you can see I glued the left shoulderpad in the right arm and viceversa, that´s cause I like this look better and will distinguish the demolisher of the devastator.

A shot of the other pauldron, if you look closely you´ll see the runes painted in the shoulderpad (this is a shot from when the mini was WIP, nevermind :)  ).


Here you can see the red marking painted in the front of the hull.

 What do you think about it?

Khador Juggernaut: Completed!!

Here is the completed khador juggernaut warjack in all its glory


I think I will be changing the head as soon as I can, cause it came a bit warped, but here it is completed.
As you can see I´ve tried to emulate some king of energy effect in the axe, I think it looks pretty ok.


Here is a detail from other angle, the red shoulderpad will be a constant in my khador army, you will see.


And here is a detail of the shoulderpad (it is a picture from before I painted the energy effects and added the head, but you can see the overall effect.


The only thing that is unfinished in this mini is the base... Any ideas?

What do you guys think?

Khador juggernaut WIP: Part 6

Almost there!!

Here they are some pics of my almost finished khador juggernaut warjack.

The effects of the exhaust and the axe are still pending, as well as the head of the ´jack.


Here you can see better the chipping and overall effect.


Hope you like it.

Khador Juggernaut WIP: Part 5

Here is the finished torso of the juggernaut.
I´m quite proud of it.


As a khadoran war machine it has lots of chipping from past battles, and also it has a double line marking in the middle of the torso, which I will be adding to all my warjacks.


Comments and criticism as ever will be welcome.

Khador Juggernaut WIP: Part 4

Here it is the right shoulderpad of the juggernaut.

I´ve painted it as the rest of the juggernaut but i´ve added some khadorian inscriptions in the right shoulder, just to add a bit of colour in the overall model.


As you can see the inscription has the same style as the "magic" in the pictures in the book, as you can see in this image.


Here is another shot which show better the inscriptions.

Khador Juggernaut WIP: part 3

Here they are the painted legs of the juggernaut.

As you´ll notice the loincloth has been filed, so it hasn´t rivets or a metal plate, that is cause it came with a big mould line so I had to remove some details. It ended well, tough.


There is the back of the legs, here you can see the differences in the loincloth regarding the previous picture.

 Here is a better view of the leg guards, but my cell took a blurry photo this time :(

Next post: shoulderpads.

Necron canoptek spider, a training session.

Hi guys, today I bring you photos of one of my latest training sessions :D

There it is a necron canoptek spider completed, but let´s take a look at what I´ve done (or tried).

First of all I tried to make some energy lines in the carapace, mask them and paint the rest red, but the mask stuck so strong that the intended effect was removed from place, hence it was finally painted red and from purely frustration I used agrax earthshade in the crevasses instead of making any kind of effect.

Here you can see the intended effect before the masking mess.

After the metallics were painted, I tried a blue glowing effect in the lower part of the mini, and I´m very proud of it cause it looks pretty well in my opinion.

The effect was achieved painting the glowing bulbs dark blue, then airbrushing it with a 50/50 mix of light blue and matt medium and then adding the final touch with a 50/50 mix of white and matt medium


After previous success I got a bit carried away and did the same effect in every glowing stuff of the mini, which again turned OK.


Here you have the finished miniature (without proper base), I have to say that with this mini I learned a lot about using the airbrush.

Here is another shot in other perspective of the mini.


As you can see, the base was kind of a learning field before I started with the mini :)


Hope you like it.

Carcharodons counts as Bjorn the Fellhanded: minor conversions.

Hi all.

Here they are some minor conversions I´ve made to a FW´s relic contemptor dreadnought to make him count as Bjorn the Fellhanded.

First of all, a close combat-y plasma cannon: Now that you can swap bjorn weapons I´ve decided to weaponize (more) a plasma cannon, and to make this I´ve added some talos bits to make it more menacing, and casually there was a talos bit which has many rivets, which is great cause it totally fits the carcharodons generally riveted look.


As you see the round part fits perfectly the plasma cannon frame.
The blade was attached filing the thing and using a drill to make its union more sturdy.



And voilá, a pretty menacing bladed plasma cannon.


Next I´ve riveted part of the torso, just for the fun of it and it looks pretty good.


After this, given that Bjorn has a 5++ save, I´ve added a radar thing in top of it, just to represent Bjorn is ever attuned with battlefield changes and is aware of all dangers around him... and because it looks similar to the AMS in Mechwarrior Online, a game I´m totally in love with.

I´ve also uber-riveted the left shoulder, to make it more carcharodons looking.

 Closer view:


And i´ve put also some trim and rivets in the right shoulder.


I hope to post painted pictures soon.

Khador Juggernaut WIP: part 2.

Hi all.

Here is the Juggernaut airbrushed, washed, with some of the metallics finished and with some chipping on it.

The legs still WIP though

Next post: legs!

Carcharodons drop pod door with airbrush!

Here is my first attempt at paint something with an airbrush.

I primed it grey and preshaded it with black and white, after that I´ve painted it with light grey and matt medium.

After airbrush I made some chipping with a sponge and a darker grey and I like the effect achieved.


After that I painted the bottom parts black to match with the carcharodons theme and chipped it with boltgun metal (now leadbelcher) and mithril silver (I don´t now its new name) and painted some spirts with agrax earthshade wash under every rivet achieving a nice old and used effect.


Comments and criticism are welcome as ever.

Ogre stonehorn WIP

For today there is a work in progress of the ogre stonehorns.

As I told you in the thundertusk article, I´m painting the stonehorns white so the stone pops out.


I´ve painted some gems in the horns and one of its fangs is a sapphire too, I think it adds a cool touch to the mini.

Sorry about the ugly pictures... remember, they were taken with my cellphone.

What do you think about the mini?

Scratchbuild ogre bruiser.

I´ve built a bruiser from spare parts, so here it is.

 I´ve used a ogre body, mournfang cavalry scyte, shoulderpad and helmet, irongut gutplate, and I don´t know where did I get the buckler... ironguts I think.


It is a cheap way to get a bruiser, and you can customize it a lot too.

What do you think?

Carcharodons: Counts as Belial/Arjac Rockfist (Asterion Moloch).

Here it is my carcharodons´count as Belial or Arjac Rockfist.

Whe mini is FW´s Asterion Moloc, chapter master of the Minotaurs, with the minotaurs symbols filed out (pretty hard work, by the way) and painted in carcharodons colours.


There is again the energised weapons effect (damn cell phone and his blurry photos...).

 The hammer.

It is a ver nice mini, and very fun to paint, full of nice details and it came perfectly cast so...

 A blurry view of the back of the mini.

In this shoulderpad I tried to make kind of a imperial eagle from the minotaurs chapter (although I think I didn´t successed at it)


What do you think?
