2013 !!! New year, new resolutions. I have to apologize for the lack of updates last year. I have to confess I had lost the flame, I've been doing no painting and no collecting either. I spent too much time on stupid casual gaming on iPad and Facebook,...
Sorry if I've been quiet and for the lack of updates, I took some 'creative sabbatical times' but this is in no way a lack of interest or motivation. I have many projects in mind to give me work until at least june 2008. A lot of Lovecraft-inspired miniatures...

Hi, back at least to work on my tyranid Hive Queen, I've been very busy at work and at home the last days, so sorry for the lack of update. Motivation was also a bit down because of the size of the beast to paint. This one will be painted in the red/bone...
A few people have been asking how to make a hive queen. So I decided to make a small tutorial to help those who are interested and maybe to give ideas to others. For pictures, check the tyranid gallery. First, you have to get the following parts (use...
