Recently Painted Warhammer 40K Minis

The First to Pictures posted here are both miniatures from the "Black Reach" box-set for Warhammer 40K. While I can count the number of times I've played 40K over the last 5 years on 1 hand, I still collect and paint quite a few GW minis. Mostly from Space Marines (read Black Templars) and Imperial Guard.


First we have the Space marine Commander, an extremely nice model, considering he's snap together plastic! I'm pretty happy with the paint job, although the Crosses on the shoulder pads are a bit "soft".





The second photo here is the Dreadnought from the aforementioned box-set. Again a pretty impressive model, all things considered. Once again I am also relatively happy with this paint job, but feel the Cross is a bit "soft" at the edges. I suppose I should break down and use decals, rather than try to paint such things.





Next up, we have the latest squad for my Imperial Guard Army. Nothing particularly special about these guys. Finally below we see the same squad of Guardsmen standing fast in the gaze of a terrifying Rylie-Monster! Ahhhh... Runnn Awaaaaay!

Trafalgar Ships

Well, the above picture features the first three ship i"ve painted for Trafalgar. They've been done for some time, I just haven't had a chance to sit down and upload the photo.

In other news I have another batch of 28mm Confederate soldiers on the painting table, as well as 3 Imperial Guard Heavy Weapons teams, and a squad of early WW1 Germans. This new batch Confederates are the Old Glory 2nd Edition figures. They fit pretty well with the Perry plastics I painted previously. I will upload some photos of them soon.
