The first to be painted as part of my Subjugators space marine army, this Razorback will be the command squad’s transport and also served as a tester for the army’s colour scheme. The method was as follows:
- Spray Army Painter “Army Green” spray primer
- Ink with Badab Black
- Drybrush with Knarloc Green
- Drybrush Kommando Khaki
That was the armour sorted, and then I moved on to battle damage and mud etc. The battle damage was simply painted on with black, and then again with Boltgun Metal. Various browns were used to drybrush on the mud effect around the bottom and “shadows” which not only gives it a muddy feel but also general dirt.
All I did after that was finish off the details – gund, metals, lights, scroll etc. The fist icon on the door was done in freehand, which I roughly drew on in pencil before painting it as a guide.

It’s a sad time, my faithful first car has given up and I fear it will be for the last time. Lots of adventures have been had in The Rustalade and a lot of good memories too. The repair bill will most likely be so high I might as well buy a new car, so I’m currently on the hunt for a replacement. You will be missed ‘o rusty one…

You may have already noticed that I’ve given the look of the blog a bit of a refresh – hope you like! Would love to hear any comments on the new design.
I wanted something very clean and simple, and I’d gone through some concepts that were quite dark and moody and others that were a bit overcomplicated. At the end of the day the main focus of this blog is odds and ends of me posting about what I’m interested in, so I decided to strip pretty much everything out and even hid the menu, so it basically is just me rambling. Oh and Leicester’s skyline in the background – had to be done!

An extract from the eagery awaited “Prospero Burns” novel has been posted by Dan Abnett himself on his blog today. This, the next book by Abnett in the series is definitely not one to be missed, but being a Space Wolves fan is going to make it much more special!
