The Age of Ultron. Instead of painting this silver, I decided to go straight to the comics themselves and draw inspiration from a full page of issue 10 of Age of Ultron. I don’t know which of the artists drew it but it’s most likely Bryan Hitch (it’s the final photo in this set). This has also been a super difficult miniature to take a photo of, but with a bit of fiddling I got it at least close to what it looks like in person. #marvelcrisisprotocol #paintingminiatures

Calling time on painting my Chaos Knights. Could keep adding details quite happily but I have lots of other stuff to finish. Will do proper photos later. #paintingwarhammer #paintingchaos #paintingwarhammer40k #paintingwarhammer40000 #warmongers #warhammer #chaos #chaosknights #chaosknight #ironwarriors #chaosspacemarines #warhammer40000 #warhammer40k #gw #minipainting #miniaturepainting

The Battledroids edition Marauder by Ral Partha is done! This micro-scale lead model was made around 1986 for use with Battledroids, later Battletech, produced by Fasa. The work on this model was completed in several layers, including scrounging for replacement parts no longer available. Coloring done with a Patriot 105 airbrush from @badgerairbrush. Decals from Fighting Pirannha Graphics. Colors and weathering from @ammobymig. #battledroids #nightstalker #marauder #battletech #alphastrike #ammobymig #catalystgamelabs #ironwindmetals #badgerairbrush #mechwarrior #mech #mecha #gunpla #microarmor #6mm #miniaturepainting #paintingminiatures #weatheredmodels
