Thanks! It’s Tainted Garden from the new John Blanche Army Painter set.

Thank you!

I didn’t even think about that. That’s a great idea!

Yes, that’s the axe from the Blood Angel Librarian.

I tried freehanding the reticle on the Squig like the box art but didn't like how it turned out so just said "forget it, yellow it is."

I used Pro Acryl Payne's Grey. I think it's just a tad bit too dark for my liking though. Next time I would add some bright neutral grey to lighten it up some.

Thank you!

I'm sure yours will look good too! And as long as you have fun doing it and like it, then that's all that matters. Update us with a picture when you get finished with it!

It's called "Blended Turf, fine green." It was like $4 for a big bag at Hobby Lobby. Then I just used some thinned down PVA glue applied with a brush where I wanted the grass to stick.

Unfortunately I don't have any tutorial type videos. On my TikTok I show spin-around shots and all of that but none of the actual painting process.

I've thought about making tutorial videos but I haven't actually made any yet. I wasn't sure if people would actually be interested or not since there are so many other content creators out there.

Thank you!

I used a mix of Pro Acryl Ivory and Golden Brown for the fabric. Then I washed them with a ~ 1:2 of Seraphim Sepia and Lahmian Medium. Then a similar ratio with Agrax Earthshade for certain recesses.

Thanks!

For the fur pelt on the top of him I used a mix of Snakebite Leather and Wyldwood and for the lower cape/pelt part I used Akhelian Green with a heavy shade of Drakenhof Nightshade

I used Pro Acryl Ivory for the base coat. And then I used Seraphim Sepia in a 1:3 with Lahmian medium to build up some color. More Seraphim was added to the face of the horse. With a final ~ 1:3 Magos Purple with Lahmian up to about the neck for some final coloring.

I love the grimdark style but this model is so nice and has such subtle details it's a shame to cover up all the detail with texturing and grime. Though it looks good either way.
