Does Anyone Have a Hanky?

Spawn are like a Christmas selection box. They come in dozens of varieties; once you start, you can't stop at one; and they don't last long when they're on the table.

This one is going for the insectoid vibe - and easily painted with Death Guard Green basecoat, followed by a series of washes (Agrax all over, Carroburg Crimson for the claw, Coelia Greenshade for the spikes). I also thought that Chaos Black followed by Ardcoat on the eyes was a nice touch.

The added bonus here was the discovery of Bostik All-Purpose glue, which can be easily applied and leave these strands of mucus over the model. It seems to be pretty robust when it dries too. Not brittle, but capable of being chucked about a bit.

Here are a couple of new Cultists I added to my Thousand Sons squads - just so I could have full squads of ten without taking the expensive (and mostly useless) special weapons.

And finally ... I think this is the only fantasy model I've painted all year (way back in January). An old plastic Bright Wizard, given away as a present - but it all counts to the painting tally!
