SpiralingCadaver's hobby thread

Hehe, yep- not a huge fan of the series, but I sure like its look.

And yeah, the forgotten marshal is a nasty piece of work- she's tough to begin with, but has a fun ability where when she dies the thing in her coffin breaks out (a random zombie worth anywhere from half her cost to more than it), which makes a very nice deterrent to actually dealing with her as an annoying flanker.

Next, obliterators with some little conversions.

Lovely Oblits!

Back to salamanders:

Lucius and his creepy buddies got a revision:







And a blast from the past (almost exactly 3 years ago when I first posted him):

[3eland]

Awesome!

Love the rework, the improvement is definitely shown! Salamanders are looking good! How many of them do you have done?

[spiralingcadaver]

Thanks! On the Salamanders, only around 10, though I've got another 30 I'm working on at the moment... graduating from showcase to somewhere over 1k points if I ballparked correctly

[3eland]

Nice!

Always nice fielding a fully painted army.

[spiralingcadaver]

Yeah, it's one of the only things I find 40k has that no other company really touches- vasty hordes of regimented guys just look really nice, even if they get a bit boring to paint.

Also, starting in on Kingdom Death: Monster, with the promo Twilight Knight.

[3eland]

Love the lighting, great job, as always!

[spiralingcadaver]

Thanks, yeah, she was really nice to work on.

At the opposite extreme, the derpy storm talon needed some serious salvaging:

[hapotte]

Wow very cool display bases!

[kturock]

I saw on facebook yesterday something similar. The guy didn't use the clear stems, he had the vehicles 'on' the ends of the terrain.

[3eland]

Is that a modified talon? It looks so tiny.

Great work though.

[spiralingcadaver]

Oops, didn't see the responses before, yeah, 3eland, I think the basic design is really dumpy, looks like it wishes it were a helicopter but it has none of the right shapes for it, so I went with a much more compact design: Assault cannons are stacked instead of on the turret, hanging secondary weapons are now above the cockpit; tail was replaced by another engine, no wings, maybe other stuff.

Next up, the Kingdom Death starter scenario. A few pics, didn't want to put too many in...

A group shot:


A fun bit of editing:


My favorite mini from the set:

[3eland]

That is awesome man.
