“All men make mistakes, but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong, and repairs the evil. The only crime is pride.”

“A heap of broken images, where the sun beats,
And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief,
And the dry stone no sound of water. Only
There is shadow under this red rock,
(Come in under the shadow of this red rock),
And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.”

Hello, this is the opening shot charting my progress of this wonderful diorama sculpted by Simon Egan and released by the good ol' boys of Frogeworld.


Still in the clean up stage and I'm mightly impressed by what the team have managed to achieve. The scene is dolorous an ending chime to the hope of the Great Crusade. I hope I can do it justice.

Looking at the photographs I am really surprised by how monochromatic the skin and armour tones are. I intend to add a little warmth to the skin tones and start hightlighing and shading the armour to add more depth.


For more piccies check out the blog for extra photo's.

Great paint job. Looks amazing.
Nothing to do with your efforts but it does bug me that fluff wise Loken would have his gear in the Luna Wolf Style rather than Sons of Horus. GW, Forge World and Black Library dont seem to talk to each other. But then again i'm a bit of a stickler for fluff accuracy.
That said though, Great mini and a wonderful paint job.
Thanks for tolerating my small rant, Us Brits do love to moan :)
