More marvellous stuff, I can't even begin to imagine sculpting at this scale and your stuff looks amazing. Do you sculpt professionally or is this just something you do for fun? Either way it looks marvellous, certainly looks like pro stuff to me.

I've made a start on my first base of skinks (my first ever WM figures) and as soon as they're done I'll stick some pics up. They're a test really to see if I like (and can) paint 10mm stuff. If they go well I expect I'll be ordering up an army. Certainly the models are nice.

Nope not professional just something I do for fun, I'll never forget being told by GW staffer when Warmaster was released that there was no way you could do conversions at this scale so I had to prove him wrong.

Skinks are a good unit to start on nice details but not over elaborate.

Well I said I wouldn't start painting the Reliquae for a while but there is absolutely nothing on TV tonight so ..........



Still very much painting in progress the details show up better now. I tried for a sort of marble effect on the seat to keep the stone effect going.

Wow Dave C,

very interesting and original. Have you think about stats or rules to use the Reliquae in the game?

keep on the good working!

Thanks all.

I should have more stuff done by the end of the weekend but I'm mostly working on a Salvar Chem Dog Imperial Guard army for 40k at the moment so updates my be a bit sparse for a little while.

I posted the Dragon Ogre shaggoth in the Chaos Dragon thread but here he is again



He'll get a coat of paint tomorrow.


Most of rest has been seen before but I'll put them back up again.

Here's my Skaven Verminlord (he still isn't based nearly 4 years on as I sold the skaven army and I hadn't decided on a basing scheme)



More Greater Deamons:







Daemon Overlords:





Daemon chariots:



and finally for now Orion

Found some pics I've never shown before

first my finished Daemon Beasts of Khorne.



Next Daemon Beasts of Nurgle - these are Heresy miniatures with a little conversion work I couldn't post them before as they're not GW minis



And finally Daemon Beasts of Slaanesh and Tzeentch to finish these have been seen before:

after re-reading your comments about  the GW employee that said converssions couldnt be done at this scale & after looking sat your work  i certainly hope you remebered his name and got the chance to show him what couldnt be done.

Not seen the beasts of Khorne before.
They are very nice and very in keeping with the rest of your excellent work.

I've got some criticism...
What took you so long to paint the shaggoth  ;D
But seriously great work as always.

What do you have planned next?

Dave very impressive,

I think you should be working on some manufacture as sculptor and making lots of 10mm ranges!  :D as customer I would buy your figures for quality and originality  ;D

Thats the funny thing if I'd painted him when I converted him he wouldn't have turned out so well (even if I do say so myself  ;D) same with the Ogres. I've noticed the progression in my painting over the years from putting up older pics. I've spent alot of time learning wet blending and glazing techniques over the last year or so on 28mm scale minis and now I'm transferring that back although somewhat simplified to my 10mm work - which just makes painting units/armies even longer! but with the Ogres I'm determined to keep up the level of painting throughout as the larger size of the Ogres allows for more detail.

Mmmm next well I have a slave giant prepped for painting but I'm not sure yet Gorgers could also be an interesting unit to paint.

Cheers Jchaos79 but I've tried 10mm sculpting from scratch and it's a pain it's not so much the details It's the 10mm dollies are just to damn fiddly to make. I much prefer to modify or convert existing minis although I do have some scratch sculpts in my collection, Greasus Goldtooth for example is entirely scratch scupted but he was built on a 28mm dolly so it was somewhat easier. Dollies are wire armatures sort of like skeletons in case anyone doesn't now what I'm talking about.
