Welcome to Army of One, where I display a great looking painted model from stuff I’ve done or amazing figures I’ve seen around.
If you click on the Army of One label you’ll be able to scroll through some great looking figures, all at once.
Today we take a look at an award winning Thunder Hammer Ultramarine Captain that was painted by one (or possibly both) of the Wappels, the painting duo from Chicago.
Funny story: my buddy gave me this model because he had a little accident with his apple cranberry vodka on my carpet… and my wall…. and a shelving unit, and uh… you get the point (well point is tell someone when you have an accident, not after the stains set in the next day, lol…)
But this bad boy is mine now, and the carpets are once again spotless. Win! -Enjoy MBG
