So to get me going I decided to step out of my comfort zone and paint some Dark Eldar
The Insaneorium... a blog dedicated to my mad hobby projects

Dark Eldar Haemonculus
Hello all... I've been in a bit of a hobby funk recently... Not really been in the mood for much painting.

Necromunda Redemptionists
Chad & the First Church of the Flaming Cone Heads
Hello all... and for those looking for more posts on my Emperor Titan, well sorry, not this time but rest assured that I'm working on things.
To be honest, I needed a break from that project... and doing the Nagash commission got me excited about painting other things.
At my local games club a few guys have rediscovered the magic of Necromunda... personally, my favourite game system... I loved this game when it first came out and have many gangs. There was an opportunity to get a Redemptionists gang from someone very cheaply, so I took it.
I'll be working on my other gangs... next up will be Spyers and Ratskins
You've probably realised that I seem to be obsessed with flames... and the effects here were achieved with an airbrush and the Anarchy HD Stencil System. I backed this when it came out on Kickstarter last year and I'm really happy with the results they give

Nagash - Commission Painting
Hello All...
I've not been posting for a while, and since I got back from Vacation I see that my Blog made it onto Faeit 212... as a result a few more folk have taken a look at my work on the Emperor Titan that I'm working on.
So the first order of business is to say Welcome All and normal posting service should resume
The reason for my hiatus in posting is that I've been working on a commission for a good buddy at my Gaming Club... I wanted Mo [client] to see these first before anyone else, but I've emailed these onto him... so here are my efforts

Flames.... i've been painting
I posted some images of the flame theme on the towers... I've now completed the first part of this theme on the top section
You can see some of the detailing that I've added... I'll be keeping it like this for the time being until I've finished. This will be to assess what I can leave and then add to
Note... there were some comments about a lack of scale... 10 points for spotting the Ork Boy in these photos - also giving you the scale

It stands!
This is something that i've been working towards for a while... i've been wanting to see the emperor titan standing so that I can get a good idea of what the overall model will be like
Yes, there is a LOT of things to finish.... but i'm pretty happy that i've managed to get this far

I've spent quite a bit of this weekend measuring and remeasuring the pipework so that I could get this far. You can also see the hip structures that i'm currently playing with... I may change these (at the top of each leg)... I also need to add a log of detailing around the legs and the hip pipework as it's rather barren at the moment.
You can also see the initial structure of the two arm cannons... I'm going to use these as placeholders for the time being, I want to paint everything else before I work on these.
I've also been working on more flames for the top turrets
Lots more detailing to add around the edges...
That's it for now

Test Painting... Towers
So I decided that my lack of black paint to undercoat things wouldn't stop me being productive... I've been practising freehand flames but decided that I needed to actually see it on the Emperor.
I started with one of the back towers... it's small and if I screw it up I can always paint it black again.
I'm pretty happy with these and while I know it's ambitious, I know that it'll look killer when the whole theme is completed.

I should reference my tutorial videos for the freehand flames... Airbrush Tutor.com
