Thanks guys!

This guy isn't lead but I think he probably belongs as part of my nostalgia force - he's one of the monopose marines painted for Darren Latham's painting challenge, and took me a month of painting time to get to this point. No decals, all freehand this time around!

cool - great PJ well worth the effort - and quality retro base colour to!

Great job, particularly on the knee pads.

Thanks guys! After getting some less than positive feedback about the lenses I went and re-did them - six times in the end - and I'm leaving it there. Updated the pic.

They looked good before but yeah they do look even better now. Lovely paint job sir.

Cheers! That's definitely nice to hear after so many iterations trying to get them looking right...

Very good.

Cheers! After spending so long on that guy it was a relief to do something else - I painted a Satyr Studios oldhammer sculpt:

Was really good fun - I modified the shoulder pad to have the rivets and added a backpack of my own design.

Great work, as usual!

That sculpt is interesting. I was caught by the nostalgia wave years ago already, and it's been really taking off of late, but I didn't realize there's people doing retro sculpts now!

I'll be sure to check them out...

Wow, the 2nd edition plastic is amazing. Can't believe they aren't decals.

I'm part of the oldhammer sculpting page (haven't posted anything though) lots of cool old school sculpts coming through on there. Some amazing limited run metals that I wanted but couldn't purchase due to budget restrictions.

Cheers Beefs

When you say page, I take it you mean a Facebook page? I don't FB myself, but this might still be worth a look...

Yep, sorry for that. I think it might be a private group but at least one fellow on there has done homages to the greater chaos daemons from classic images.
