I start with this a quick kit bash and bash and I thought it is too small...

Maybe a bit top heavy, but overall looks as good as the official model imho!

i really like its vestigial arms, and the big bulbous body haha.

I have been playtest it with Astra Militarum ( battlereport in this forum )

While I play it and the tail just snapped off and it fell, broke arm and mouth.

I just drill a hole in it tail and another hole in tail that glue to base and put in a thick steel nail with head cut off. Greenstuff the gap and wat for it cured then I can sanding it down to smooth out the tail.

Then I can repair mouth and arm then paint it!

Just did base coat. Need to let it dry, in cold garage made paint stay wet sigh....



Along with the rest of my project I am working on.

Here a update on Malanthrope, add more base coat...

[dan3dim]

I did some layer, few dry brush and add few more details..







It’s ready to go to battle. Look good enough to go on the table!

Any feedback are welcome.

Thank!


I was having a break from painting for now. Need focus on other thing at home before head off to tournament. I just packed those in my haul bag and ready for tournament!


Lot of paint done, many repair from old one.. Here enough model that I haven’t finished yet.

For you who spot Old One Eye on left side. I just finish green stuff modelling the face but not finished painting...


Time to put down tool and head off to tournament!
