The Stormcast Eternal Latest


 Spent the day, more or less, painting the Stormcast Eternal that judges souls of his enemies. I tried a small change to the cloak and started with an Averland Sunset base coat, then a reikland flesh wash before giving it a light, thin coat of averland again, then Yeril yellow as a broad highlight then Flash git yellow as a highlight then the dry brush yellow as the final highlight layer.



I think this has worked better. 

The armour was dawnstone with the fenris grey layer, I may have forgotten to do the shoulders and just done those gold. 




And a tiny, tiny bit of free hand on the book.

More Ruins



Made a start on the next set of sigmarite ruins, just the rings to do on the fountain stand.

Monthly Vow 12th Of September To The 12th Of October


 Huuummm. Yeah not my best month. 



I had a very bad month in real life, loosing a client, which really took the wind out of me, with zero desire to do anything. So only got 2 things painted, the Primaris Azrael and Asmodai. 
Plans for this month, I have the latest scenery set cut from the sprue for Mortal Realms that I'm painting for the coworker and one of the Knight Incantors, and I'm also hoping that the undead blood bowl team gets released next week, I'm going to try and get that done as well although I can stretch that till November as its planned to be a Christmas present. Beyond those commission pieces and with the Astartes Codex out now, I'm waiting till my bills are paid then seeing what I have left before putting my order in, Codex, cards, 2 Invader ATV's, 1 Ridge Runner, 1 Chaplain on bike and paints, oh and some more triple A batteries for the head band. Think my aim is the Chaplain on bike and some other AoS stuff, as the pile keeps growing... 

Review Time










Azrael crosses the Rubicon Primaris, I put way more time and effort into this than normal and it shows, I am really happy with how this came out, especially the banner. 











The Asmodai was another Primaris project, I had ordered the fine cast version and cut it up to make this, the Asmodai shoulder pads took some filing to get to fit onto the Indomitus Chaplain. The head was a quick decapitation and it fitted with no more effort involved.

Primaris Asmodai


 


I haven't had the best month at work, and it left me with zero drive to paint anything for a couple of weeks. Today I picked up my brushes and got stuck in to Asmodai. 



There are a couple of things left to do, but as I've lost the smoke coming out of the knee, I'm about to green stuff that and leave it for the morning, as its just pistol casing and purity seals to do.

Costing

 I have a shopping list, the Space Marine Codex, the tactical cards, Chaplain on bike and the ATV.

Rough maths on that lot is about £80 from Element Games. The thing is I'm torn on waiting for payday or cashing in some of the coin jar and banging that in the bank on my next day off and getting an order in.
