It's The Hobby Hole

My Warboss Ed Skratsha Da Philosoph’Ork

Converted Bloodstoker with leftover Plague Marine parts. If I played 40k Proper I’d probably run him as a “Master of Executions” or something.

WIP. I won a squad of Chaos Space Marines on ebay a while back. One of them had a weird pose, so I justified it with a chiken from the 1:35 Tamiya Livestock kit.

My Plague Champion. Head is from the sadly discontinued and very goofy “Deadwalker Zombies” by Games Workshop (I don’t remember why I had that head in my bits box).

Some tabletop terrain I built. Found some Pharaoh Minion key-chains at the dollar store. I assume, with what little I know about the Minions, that these were originally Minions who served Pharaoh during the Exodus? It was all just a little too weird for me to not use as terrain.

The Looming Presence CHICO is complete. Satin Lacquer all over, high gloss floor polish in the eyes.

It is 1:06 am, do you know where your God is? Because he is not here.

WIP shot of nightmare cat.

I bought a smiling cat statue from a thrift shop near-by. It creeps me out, so I’m going to lean into that.

my “unusual call box” fallout build. still needs a dead grass tuft.

One day paint. I am a little annoyed that I didn’t remove the moldlines, but I’m otherwise pretty proud of how this guy turned out, and on the table the lines aren’t nearly so obvious. Quick backstory for a quick paint. He was a cop before the apocalypse. Without the state to legitimize the police’s monopoly on violence they became an organized street gang. This guy mutated into a pig-man and was cast out from the human supremacist police. He later joined a particularly violent mutant gang.

So, I’ve been experimenting with Oyumaru, a japanese thermo plastic that ban be used to make molds of things. I cast a Scotty from Star Trek action figure my dad owns. It came out botched, but since errors should always be inspiration I decided it would be a damaged statue. I had tried to paint it using a stone tutorial I found online but is came out looking more like old bronze, so I watered down some dark gold paint (for the shiny metallic flakes that paint contains) and then using the water-gold mix to cut some Agrax Earthshade wash. I followed that up with a 1:1 mix of gold and burnt umber paint that, using a toothpick, I applied to the highest points (Eyebrows, nose, chin, collar) TL:DR. Tried to paint stone, accidentally painted bronze, embraced my mistake and built on it.
