There's something about your painting style on the Escher girls (in particular on the autogun girls) that makes me think of Ian Gibson's work on Halo Jones - wonderful stuff!

Thanks, gentlemen!

Hmm, maybe it is really worth of taking some individual photos of my girls.
Actually, never heard of Halo Jones - need to check it immediately )))

The Ballad of Halo Jones is my favorite 2000AD story ever - Alan Moore's brilliant writing, and Ian Gibson's stunning art (which, while it's admittedly not for everyone, was absolutely perfect for Moore's story) combined to make something truly unforgettable and unique. Well worth losing yourself in for a few hours!

As far as Warhammer 40K comes back to my wargaming life (under certain circumstances) I painted some 3d converted and printed models as a strictly-not-a-radical Inquisitor and her henchmen.



Lady Inquisitor and her armsmaster





An astropath to send telepathic e-mails and use a messenger all across the galaxy









A gunslinger, who certainly can win a genestealer look-a-like contest









Local enforcers who have no clue what they are going to deal with





Certainly not a demon

WOW sir  :o!

I just stumbled upon this thread, and although I kind of "avoid" the whole 40K thing, you have made some astonishing clever work and absolutely wonderful paint jobs of these miniatures, a joy to behold  :).

The kitbashing and the very unique conversions really "pops" and make each of the models a very memorable character on the table. Very creative indeed. As others have already said, your painting style makes the miniatures quite dynamic.

All in all, a job very well done!

Thanks for sharing.

Wow, never seen blue glowey stuff inside a person before. .. I'd be keeping away from that one, but a great party trick in dark alleys when you forget a Torch.

Amazing painting and conversions!

I tried to avoid Warhammer since I last played it in 2011, but it's very hard to keep distance, as my local community is small and plays mostly 40k.

This thread is right up my alley- thanks for sharing such gorgeous work with us all. :-*
Is the demon one of the conversions, or can I find it online?

Found this 3d-model on Thingiverse and added some details like manacles and purity seal in editor.
