A lot of the cool kids seem to have their modeling endeavors condensed into one thread. That's probably a better way to do it than my little each project gets its own thread thing, so . . . in honor of that I'll put the new stuff here and maybe add links to the old threads as time allows.
I'm finally shaking off my fourth long annual summer funk. (Long story. If you really want to know ask in a PM, but there's no need to go into the details here.) But to end it I painted up a couple of miniatures. One of them is the hybrid that follows . . .
The "familiar" (whom I regard as more of a first instar adult genestealer) came before the summer. I think I got him done in mid May and he's sat lonely on the shelf since. Actually even started the hybrid in May or so. But I've got some new starts nearing completion, and I finished one commission that's not germane to this thread, so I think I can say I'm back painting again. (It's become enough of an annual tradition that I ought to be able to predict it now. I feel a little more empathy for Frodo at the end of Lord of the Rings. Sort of similar in some ways.)
Not completely pleased with him. It's . . . not my best paint. It's an awkward miniature. It's kind of a failure all around, really, but he'll do. And I can put him on the table.
The commissions came out better, thankfully.
More on the blog of course, in a post called The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
