Warhammer kindly sent Warhammer Quest: Darkwater my way for free, and so far I've painted Gelgus Pust (great name!) and 2 Cankerborn (you may have seen in yesterday's article 😉). Can't express how fun these minis are! #AdWIP #WarhammerQuest #WarhammerCommunity

A Cankerborn either side of Gelgus Pust. All very green, swampy, and rusty looking.

Sekhetar Robots are so much nicer in real life than I thought! Thanks Warhammer for the preview copy of the #ThousandSons Warpflame Thrallband box and the gubbins needed to complete the whole diorama. On pre-order today! #WarhammerCommunity #adwip #ad

Square based Warhammer diorama, with a pyramid (Realmshaper Engine) in the centre, all covered in creeping vines. At each corner stands a Sekhetar Robot, painted in a traditional Thousand Sons colour scheme. Atop the pyramid is a Tzaangor Shamen on disc, in mostly blues, purples and golds.

Games Workshop asked me if I'd like to create a diorama using the new Sekhetars, as i'm working on Aeldari, I thought Wraith against the Machine was cool. My submission was actually 2 photos merged together, cut outs, cotton wall and some flash photography realised my vision. #warhammercommunity

If you're ever feeling bad about self promotion or recognising your own abilities remember the self stirring mug. It does not give a fuck about anyone's opinion on modesty or humility, all it cares about is accuracy and honesty. It's a self stirring mug, it tells everyone what it is loudly.
