This poor catachan counted the pain level with one, two, or three hemavores bursting from him!

The idea was that the same victim became more messed up and mutated as the pain level increased. This poor victim is having his bones grow hideously thanks to a Haemonculus virus.

Remember when #Drukhari were called #DarkEldar and they had pain counters?
I made a gruesome set of custom ones for a Haemonculus Coven commission I had. #warhammer40k

Yeah, I sent them a photo of my scratch sculpted DominaNid, and they were like "that's nice. Let us know when it's painted. We can't feature it like this." 😐

If you see a hobby post on here, and you like it...
You MUST comment. Even if it's just to say "this is really great!"
I don't know if it's a platform or an ennui thing, but I feel like Bluesky has way, way fewer comments than Twitter ever did.
Let's do more to encourage our hobby buddies!

And here's the Roberto Cirillo reference concept sketch I'm working from.
Got some reinforcing work in on the bonesword for the Living Hive Winged Tyrant. I used pure kneadatite greenstuff, rather than mix with Apoxie Sculpt, as the rubbery texture is less likely to break under any stress.

On last night's stream I made some progress on the Living Hive Hive Tyrant (tm Dan Caplinger). This was inspired by a photo of a mash up of Drycha and a Hive Tyrant, which I've tried to modify to integrate elements of the two models more closely.

Google just reminded me it's been 17 years since we won best table at Games Day Toronto 2008 with the Infestation of Casavant Prime. Still very proud of that work, and glad to have shared it with my late friend Ross Nickel.
