Great work on the face mate, you've done a fantastic job on that one. :tu:

Genuine question on the injury though, is he scalped or is that brain I can see in the wound?

These are awesome, especially that head!

On that one - what's the recipe you use for skin? I've been struggling to find one I like and I think you may have hit the jackpot there!

Have no worries people GW mould line will be taken care of :-D and has been answered the rebreather head is in the latest tactical squad box set.

And to answer the skin tone I really didn't or don't have a set skin tone 'plan' I follow the only thing I do the same is the first 3/4 steps which is

Mornfang brown mixed with Cadian flesh 50/50 ratio
Same again but at a 70/30 mix
Wash with ogryn flesh/R.flesh shade
Re layer with previous mix
Cadian flesh

And then I just start adding brighter skin tones along with greys and off whites to get different skin hues

I want to copy this...but for chaos. Give him a creepy servo harness with bug like arms holding geneseed canisters (like the ones from the DA raven wing biker box). Yeah...this is going to be stolen.

Shoot, now I have an idea for corpsetaker servitors. I'm off with new inspiration! Thanks!

Great to see you back, Grizz. I've always loved your Scythes scheme with the vibrant yellow and satin black. How well do you think the scale of the Primaris will fit into your existing force?

I like your models' dynamic poses, and hope to see them painted soon.

Wolf Scout- Catachan barking toad eggs+ Thousand Sons Marine= Fun! (Wolves of Catachan)

Warhammer 40,000+ Star Wars- Rian Johnson- Reylo= AWESOME! (Knights of Renaissance)

Reasons to use the Steel Crusaders ('Codex: Space Marines' supplement) or the Iron-hearted Angels ('Codex: Blood Angels' supplement): Because you think giving Sternguard Veterans a heavy bolter wtih special issue HEAVY BOLTER ammunition is ALMOST as much fun as shoehorning an Earthshaker cannon into a Land Raider.
