Now it’s time to finally show what I’m working on.
I’m painting and finishing old half painted models for my chaos dwarf army. It’s made of classic GW Big Hats models, a few Forge World ones and I’m planning to add also Admiral’s fantastic models.
I thought the the best way to make my showcase is to create an Instagram Profile and post it here too.
The hell cannon looks pretty evil indeed! I especially like the color combination of the eerily glowing barrel and the corroded metal parts. Looking forward to more!

Thank you all for your kind appreciations :)
Here is the idea behind the color scheme: I wanted my Forge World models (because of their less classical look) to be Age of Sigmar oriented and I thought the the Hellcannon should be part of this scheme as it looks closer to FW style rather then Big Hats.
This small warband is fighting in the Realm of Death and paint schemes will reflect that.
So, when the Hellcannon shots piles of skulls it glows of a creepy greenish light because the skulls call back their lost souls making it even more terrifying.
Your entry inspired me to get going again on my ol metal Hellcannon! I was stymied on it for a while, especially with how I wanted to base it. Scooped it off eBay too long ago and it required lots of repair. I really like the scheme you chose, excellent work. :cheers
On Saturday I’ll be able to finsh some more 4 or 5 Iron Golems. I kept the copper/bronze style I’m using on FW Chaos dwarfs and I’m getting fun in painting different colours skins.
All my Chaos Dwarfs were painted with an ivory-light brownish tone to reflect their middle eastern ethnicity but there’s a lot of fun with other human races too. As Iron Golems feature Dwarfs, Ogres, average Humans, power pumped Humans they’re the right team to make some experince with various skins tones.
The Bull Centaurs is not actually a bull… I’ve got a 9 models team and some of them will have classical red, brown or black colours…some Others not! This is the first one with exoctic fur, a tiger like pattern. Not a superb job but I’m satisfied as first efford.
In the meanwhile I’m working on the 2014 demonsmith, I wanted a dark setting with a glowing fire…then a find a couple of amazing youtube tutorials showing a how to paint 2 light sources in the dark and I went for it. There’s still some work to do and it’s not astonishing but I’m pretty satisfied being the first time I try:
The demonsmith was my first try with 2 light sources in the dark. There are some amazing tutorials on youtube, check 'em out, it is not that difficult to do as it seems
Hopefully Admiral and the Crew are able to get the move done to a better forum soon, with an ability to host photos… Will make it so much smoother. But thanks for sharing, I really like that Hellcanon!
