Daemonic Servo-Skulls

Continuing along with the monthly servo-skull challenge for "ServoskullSaturday", I now have three servos based on daemon and beastman skulls from the GW Skulls kit.








Trying to decide how to tackle the last, Slaanesh.

Neptonians - Khurasan Miniatures Retro Space Aliens

I recently completed a series of miniatures for Khurasan, who collaborated with Hydra Miniatures on a range of space aliens called the "Neptonians". They are intended to be part of the Hydra Miniatures Retroverse and should have rules for the Retro Raygun game by Hydra.

Anyway, here they are!

Turnip 28 - Buildings - Bogs - Laundry - Cityscape

For a few years now I have tried to knock out a large terrain project over the summer, with the intention to finish it prior to the start of school. For a variety of reasons I missed the deadlines I'd set myself... but better late than never!

The project is four buildings, a city backdrop, some bogs, and a few 3D printed items. The buildings are pretty old school- foamboard (foamcore), balsa wood, and cereal box cardboard for shingles. There are other miscellaneous items from Hirst Arts molds and 3d printed items scattered around.

The backdrop is made from foamcore and is part 3D, part illusionistically painted.










The 'Gatehouse' is a close copy of an illustration by 'Black Crab Art' for the Turnip28 game.

Bogs are simple MDF board with built up borders (latex caulk and wall filler compound). The gloss is three layers of gloss polyurethane.


The Laundry and Water Pump are from Infinite Dimensions and are 3D prints. The root ox is also printed, its from the Turnip28 Patreon.

Servoskulls - Servo Tome - Horse Skull

 I've been trying to keep up with my "ServoskullSaturday" project. Here are July and August.

 The Servo-Tome is from the Ashes of Faith boxset with the Inquisition Kill Team. 


Horse skulls show up a lot in Oldhammer art and miniatures- my favorite Chaos Renegade from Rogue Trader 40k was a horse skull chaos marine. I was a little surprised I hadn't made a servo-skull version of one. I started with an old GW skeletal horse head and added grenstuff for the mechanical bits.

Folk Horror Project - Crooked Dice - Strawman and Goat-Kin

 A few more contributions to the Folk Horror endeavor.

The Stawman, a hulking resin figure, fun and easy to paint.

And some Goat-kin. Decided to go for a range of color, sort of parallel to some 40K beastmen I did a couple years back.

Folk Horror Project - Crooked Dice - Children of the Fields - May Queens - Corn Dolls

I've had a large stash of 'Folk Horror' for about a year, comprised of miniatures from Ainsty, Crooked Dice, Midlam Miniatures/Woodbine, and Meridian/Gardens of Hecate. I've liked the film Wickerman for some time, and when I found out that Crooked Dice had a range loosely based on that genre, I decided to hunt for more.

I decided to make 'Folk Horror' my summer project, and while it is admittedly off to a slow start I have gotten somewhere.

I've been drawing packs at random- first up are some Crooked Dice 'Children of the Fields'.

 

First draw was the 'May Queens', one of my favorite packs from the range. I decided to paint Lady Winterly at the same time, as well as a girl I had 3D printed, from Tiny Furniture.



The next draw was a pack of 'Corn Dolls', crude animated scarecrows.

Up next, 'Some are Islanders'.
