I've recently started seriously looking at any painted models I have from my first foray into GW more than a dozen years ago. I have some models which I really don't see myself ever re-painting completely - so I've been trying to see if I can get them somewhere I'm happy with and be done with it. Some of the mordheim lizardmen and
bonnie annerson are two examples (
lizzies painted by my bro). On top of that I have some painted models that I ended up with in bulk deals through craigslist or similar (likely on deck... old school 40K assassin).
Here's another of my brothers, a necromunda "underhive scum" wielding a plasma pistol. He was painted quite well, very neat and even a bit of blending on the pistol. It definitely didn't scream finished though, so I took some of my wood stain dip, mixed in some water to keep it nice and thin and gave the whole model a wash. Then I gave it a shot of testors dullcote to get rid of the gloss. He looks perfectly scummy now - and I hope to get a chance to include him in future games.

I'm going to try to document all my other painted stuff that hasn't shown up in the blog yet. I have a Wyrd Telepath I painted that I've already got varnished, a Wyrd Telekinetic my brother painted that just needs a bit of touch ups + the watered down dip treatment that I'm thinking of getting done.
Eventually I plan to put together some numbers for total models painted per game.
ps. Thanks to Mik for naming him :)

I always liked this model, who needs stomach crunches when you've got a plasma pistol?
His name should be "Berbe", because that's what my word verification was!
Done & done :)
I like it.
Nice scum :) I've painted the same model just a few days ago. I think i might steal your colour scheme for spyrers :P
Feel free dude - let me know if you have any questions - my email is in my profile.
