Meet the Black Widows

Well, I've managed to get the Escher gang finished. The Black Widows as they've been christened have been designed to look a bit like a punk biker gang. I was trying not to over fetish-ish them as can be a bit of an issue with some GW models. They did aquire black patent leather knee boots, but I thought that having them over jeans worked better than just stockings which was the other option from the sculpts! It was also a good excuse to play around with bottled gloss varnish as well!

The more keen eye among you may spot the odd conversion, as these are rescued models. Both the leader and the Juve were missing weapons, so have gained new weapons from what I could get hold off. The Juve gained a new stub gun which previous came from a Hasslefree dwarf, while the leader gained a Bolt Pistol and Chainsword. I was regretting selling off my 40k bits box at this point as I had to source some bits off friend to complete this! The Plasma Pistol and Sword ganger is also a conversion, but she came pre-done.

Despite this though, I'm really pleased with how they've come out.

August Challenge

Well you might be wondering what my August challenge is. In August I'm going to.....

...build a patio. Yeah, exciting stuff!

While this is a bit of a huge project, I'm also hoping to finish off painting an Escher gang for Necromunda who I started painting up. They've been something a bit different for me, and it's interesting to see if I can still paint in 28mm!
