Wow. TuffSkull. The photograph on the GW website is very unkind to your paint job.

Your site makes me sad, TuffSkull.
1. So much of what could have been
2. So much wonderful painting that my stuff pales in comparison

I'd also like to add just how shocked I am at how piss poor the GW photo is compared to the ones on your site Tuffskull. It's really quite shocking when you think how big a company GW is.

I painted a few up for physicsman's Dark Angels, ended up replacing them with Forge worlds War hounds, the GW is immensely fragile and has poor connections for gluing.

The FW is far more gamer friendly.

I'm surprised that we got the very cool Lucius Warlord from the same place we got this travesty.

Anyone know the sculptor responsible for the current war hound?

Cheers for the kind words Guys :)

The photography of GW was very poor for a very long time. I think the most disappoited I've been is with the Mordheim Angry Mob I did for them - but my photos of those weren't good either but they were some of my favourite work at the time!

Regards the sculptor I dont know who was responsible. I know Will Hayes was denied the job, much to his disappointment. Mark Bedford did the last of the Epic 40K "conversion" models - chaos bikes, dreds, BT rhinos etc and was the in house fanatic sculptor for the very short period (as in weeks) between Fanatic being granted expansion to about 13 full time staff, and being effectively closed down. It would make sense for it to have been from him, but it doesn't look like his work, so all in I'm none the wiser!
