Blog about my passion for collecting, constructing and painting miniatures and figures, for wargames, roleplay or showcase, including Warhammer 40K Tyranids, Chaos, Daemons, Cthulhu Mythos, various Gundams & super robots, etc...
Great news, I expected this for years ... Fine French miniatures makers Rackham has posted pics of their upcoming and first demon lord, called Moloch I guess. This should be an ally for the Undead of Acheron. Maybe not the best demon miniatures you've...
Well, today I'd make the happy dance if I wasn't stuck by a damned sinisitis and fever. Why ? Because my second homemade Cthulhu is finished and I'm more than 90 % happy of the result :) I really love it cause it looks like no other. Painting it was a...
AT LAST ! Project complete. Finally it has been quite fast since its beginning in mid october, with the first ideas coming in August. So the first shots of the creature are in my tyranid gallery, a little blurry 'cause it's very difficult for my cheap...
As a huge chaos fan and daemons invocator, I couldn't resist buying this daemon prince of Nurgle from Gams Workshop, even if it wasn't completely to my taste. A small conversion work was done to update him to my gimmicks, I mean I added him wings and...
We knew balrogs, but Games Workshop is releasing a new kind of demon/vampire, named Gûlavhar, on fébruary 2007. This beast doesn't come from Tolkien but from the imagination of GW's designers. Not really fantastic but nice anyway, at a price of 25 EUR,...
As promised in my log, 2007 will see more nightmares from Lovecraftian myth, and we begin with a new custom Cthulhu. Again it will be a variation on the same theme, with its own personnality. The base will be the Water Dragon 4 from McFarlane, a very...
You know I'm maniac about wings, so I've tried to add wings to my Berserk Garo. Only wings good for this were those of Garo Equip & Prop volume 7 (Winged Garo). Here's the result, and I like it even if those wings are decorative and certainly too small...
Today I'd like to introduce you to my lastest custom daemon prince : A Prince of Pleasure from the Emperor's Children Slaanesh renegade army @ Warhammer 40k. Take the children away, as this one is kind of X-rated, but after all, this is a prince of pleasure...
I'm very proud to present you a new miniature line, from the talented guys of Ronin Miniatures, in Italy : Dark Messiah - Prophecy. Here are first detailss I know, this promise to be interesting for all fantasy/roleplay miniature fans, and also provide...
Here's a new demon that joined my house today. It's a figure called Zenotic Amon, from Devilman series. This is a cheap action figure (14 $ @ Collectors Gateway, great internet shop BTW) but an awesome one anyway, and worth much more than that. Details...
My collection of robots and super robots is still expanding. Here's my latest haul, the Great Baan Gaan action figure from CMS. Great Baan Gaan ("Saint of Brave") is quite popular for Japanese robots fans, but only Yujin had made it so far, in a smaller...
It was said on the warpshadow topics that this beast didn't look tyranid enough. I have decided to add a few tyranid scales on the head and claws, and to rework the head. I will later add scales on the legs, tyranid carnifex talons near the hands and...
FINALLY !!! Yes, finally I've received this awesome monster. I 've been waiting for it for 2 years ! And I have to say that I'm not disappointed ! The sculpt is fantastic, incredible details, great textures. The paint is good but has a few flaws, I'd...
After being quite calm regarding tyranids, I come with a new big project, my biggest tyranid project to date actually. The idea is to develop further my hive queen concept by making a giant hive queen. The size is roughly 9" (22 cm) high to the top of...
Work on my big project, the gigantic tyranid hive queen, is going slowly but progressing anyway. Since last update, I've added the backplates to enhance the tyranid-like aspect. I had tried gaunt blades as nails on the toes, but it didn't work well, so...
Here's a robot that is not very popular, but it has some real good points. With its 26 cm tall and 40 cm wingspan, this mecha has a big presence on a display. It transforms in dragon mode, and the overal quality is very good, you even have big diecast...
I've been so amazed by the Genesic Gaogaigar that my interest in this serie has grown and my attention was caught by the Gaofighgar. What I like in this mecha is the fact that he has a style that lies somewhere between traditionnal Brave super robots...
The prototypes were shown by Sota more than 2 years ago, then there was a long, very long wait but now, at last, they are ready to be sold, the Nightmares of Lovecraft series from Sota Toys. Here are all the pictures : First, the prototype : Then the...
Another monster that I particularly like is the Balrog. I've always been fascinated by this creature since the first time I've read the Lord of The Rings, about 20 years ago. I've collected them for years, I'll show my collection here some day. But today...
I've bought this chogokin as I wanted to get an old fashioned robot that remind me my youth, when I watched Goldorak / Grendizer on tv. I choose Mazinkaiser because it was my favourite of all those kind of robots. I have managed to find this one on Ebay...
Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaah ! I finally received my Great Cthulhu limited edition of Wizkids' Horroclix game. Bought it on Ebay, it took 2 months to come, I really thought he was back to R'Lyeh, but he finally came. I had bought it once on Ebay and it never...
I had long hesitations to buy this guy, after seeing it on a forum (play.com.my) I fell in love with it, but the price made me hesitate. So I waited a few weeks, and as I still longed ti buy it, that's what I did. Two weeks ago I've received from Hong...
A new daemon prince has been released this summer by Games Workshop for their 40K Chaos army. I think it's a cool model, so I've bought it. One thing I didn't like was the bloated head, so I've made a conversion to give him an insectoid head (from old...
Here's finally my elite winged warrior painted. He has a little problem, as it was destroyed by a falling box while the varnish was drying, but as his regeneration capacity seem great :) The paint scheme is my aquatic one, as he's the "bodyguard" of hive...
Exciting news today ! Magnificent Egos, a small but very creative miniatures manufacturer, has presented 2 new Nightmares @ Gencon 2006 : The Kraken, that all Lovecraft fans out there will love, I already see mad plans forming in my head ;) : Then a very...
