after finally finishing my thesis manuscript and submitting it, I strongly feel like painting something again! Already in the final energy draining days of writing, I had the vision of this skull masked Leutenant of Amageddon, no idea why.... ;-)
Anyway, since I love this mini, I decided to do a proper socket for it with a little diorama but see yourelf...
This is how I got the Steel Legion officer from ebay: quite ok tabletop level...
This will be the first socket for me! (After the workshop with Jarhead...). I found this piece outside our home center. A little big maybe ;-)
Thereforem I cut out a piece with a hand saw (pretty tough this piece of wood). Then I used some gipsum and some pieces to create the raw scene: I am imagining that the officer is fighting in the nasty trench war and has just killed one ugly ork (see below)
The whole scene is supposed to be in knee-deep mudd. Hence, I created some:
Next time, I will show you the result after it completely dried, so stay tuned! ;-)

Ok, I made some little progress: this is how it looks "mudded":
For the first time I have used real green stuff (not just the milliput stuff), and I made some guts ;-)
Time to start with the painting...
More soon...
I really like this. Steel legion, orks, trench war, all mounted on a big hunk of found scrap wood. Brilliant.
