Eisenhorn

Finally finished up the Eisenhorn figure I picked up two months ago. Resin, and with a few problems that resin brings (e.g., warped staff), the sculpt is nevertheless very detailed.


It came with a nice base too.


I'm not a big fan of game fluff, but I've really, really enjoyed the Eisenhorn books by Dan Abnett, along with his Ravener and Pariah series.


'Til next time.

Warscryer Citadel

Games Workshop recently re-released their Skullvane Manse terrain kit as an AoS piece called Warscryer Citadel. Whatever you call it, it's a unique and cool terrain piece. I've just recently finished mine.


To move this large kit along, the airbrush was used extensively. Starting with the stonework of the citadel.


This was the paint progression for the worked stone.


To get the worked stone visually separated from the surrounding rock work, I painted the natural stone starting with purple, then worked up to lighter colours with more tonal variety.


Thus, this paint progression for the rocks.


Anyway, after those base colours were laid down, and I had sprayed the wood sections, everything else was brush-painted. And honestly, it went pretty quick.


Lot's of cool geometry in this kit.


Don't know what I'll be using it for, but I desperately wanted one right after the original kit went out of print. Happily, it came back!


'Til next time.
