WIP Alpha Legion army

Astronomi-con is around the corner, and I'm scrambling to get my Alpha Legion army done in time.  There's two months to go, and I still need to paint half of the infantry and 3 vehicles, and base everything on these resin-cast swamp bases I ordered.  It's going to be tight deadline, but worse come...

Jon’s Forgeworld Angron

It's been a while since I had anything to post (or a working camera), but here is a finished Angron model I did for a friend.  This mini/diorama was a blast to paint.  Forgeworld did an amazing job with Angron.  The model is packed with tons of small details, and the dynamic pose captures Angron'...

Jon’s workbench update

It's been a while since I posted anything, so I thought I'd put some pictures up of some things I've done/am working on since then.  I was a bit burned out on painting after the marathon that was preparing my army for Astronomi-con, but 6th edition's release has given me some fresh motivation to so...

Salamander MkII Assault Squad – Finished!

I worked on this squad for most of the afternoon. There are a few things I still want to clean up, but my back is telling me I'm done for tonight. I also dug out my display board to make sure everything would still fit. It is looking pretty good, so I took a few photos to share.   That's i...

Salamander MkII Assault Squad – Work in Progress

As with every tournament, there is always that last minute rush to get your army finished. Astronomi-con Toronto is this weekend and I still haven't finished painting the one squad I wanted to add. Now that I think about it, this post could probably be considered procrastination! My Forge World M...

Nurgle Rotters team – The Stagnant Society

I'm finally done painting my Nurgle Rotter Bloodbowl team. I first bought these guys at least 9 years ago. I quickly painted them up back then and used them for a long time. Then, a couple years back, I had the urge to strip and repaint them all which I did... but only to about 75% completion. Now t...

First finished Death Guard squad

It's took longer than I would have liked, but I finally finished up a pack of plague marines for the Death Guard army I'm building for Astro next year. At least my list small enough that these nine guys are already close to 1/3 of the total infantry. The look I'm aiming  for with these guys is a...

MERCS – CCC Heavy and Assault Leader

After a being away for a good chunk of the summer, I managed to finish two more minis for my CCC squad for MERCS, the heavy and assault leader.  Only three more models to go to finish the squad. More of our gaming group is starting to pick up MERCS, so I'm more motivated to finish these now. The...

MERCS – CCC Assault Trooper

Here's a MERCS CCC assault mini that I painted up as a stand-in for Necromunda, and maybe the actual MERCS game if there's interest among my gaming group.  The sweet thing about Necromunda/MERCS is that you can play with very few models, so that allows me to spend a bit more time on each miniature....

Thousand Sons

This is my old 1000 points Thousand Sons army from 3rd edition, if anybody remembers back when there was a GW store at the Toronto Eaton Center.  This was finished around 7-8 years ago and has seen it's fair share of gaming and transport, so chipping, chipping everywhere.  This is the first army w...
