    The Dragons of Jupiter Has a New eBook Edition! (Also, some eBook publishing tips!)

    I do a lot behind the scenes at Holo Writing, from actual novel-writing to handling our graphic design, marketing, and social media presence. One of my most recent projects has been teaching myself to design eBooks in Adobe InDesign*, and this is the fruit of that! 😀 Then I figured, while I’m updating the guts,…

  • Introducing the Pug of War!

    Introducing the Pug of War!

    https://www.instagram.com/p/BSHI7gcBBcu/ Sometimes a piece of fanart comes along that digs into your brain and won’t let go. Last year at SC ComiCon, Phouthong Phimmarath surprised us with this little beauty, plopping the beloved pug butler from The Wizards Way into a fierce suit of Crusader armor from The Dragons of Jupiter. You’ll recognize Phouthong’s work…

  • Warhammer 40K: Chaos Daemons Army

    Warhammer 40K: Chaos Daemons Army

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K “count as” Chaos Daemons Tzeentch army, with 95% conversions. My Chaos Daemons army is easily the craziest modeling project I’ve ever embarked upon. All but one model in the entire army have some sort of conversion work, and many involved extensive conversions. The theme behind the army is a space marine force gone horribly…

  • Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Wolf Guard Conversions

    Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Wolf Guard Conversions

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K “count as” Space Wolves wolf guard conversions. The wolf guard conversions form the meat of this army, and they take a lot of forms. The large size of the terminator bases, as well as the models themselves, presented a lot of opportunities for some really dynamic poses and interesting bases. I…

  • Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Vindicator Conversions

    Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Vindicator Conversions

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K “count as” Space Wolves vindicator conversions. What do you get when you cross 3 Space Marine vindicator kits, spare Cadians, a lot of green stuff, and an overactive imagination? Something like this! Each vindicator kit comes with a cannon shell. I took one, built up a plume of green stuff, and attached it to the…

  • Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Dreadnought Conversion

    Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Dreadnought Conversion

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K “count as” Space Wolves dreadnought conversion. This dreadnought conversion was actually a little trickier than it looks. The model is mostly stock, except the feet were adjusted slightly to allow it to stop on a poor Cadian. Getting the angle right proved difficult, given the lack of mobility in the stock model. Green stuff and…

  • Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Army

    Warhammer 40K: Space Wolves Army

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K “count as” Space Wolves terminator army. I’ve loved terminators for about as long as I’ve loved Warhammer 40K, and I always had this itch to do an all-terminator army. When the 5th Edition Space Wolves codex came out in 2009, I picked it up and was immediately drawn to the customization options…

  • Warhammer 40K: Tyranid Tervigon Conversion

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K Tyranid Tervigon conversion, with vomited termagants.     I used the trygon kit to build this tervigon. For the “birthing” part of its rules, I decided to show it in a rather unconventional way. My tervigon vomits termagants! I used the Mawloc jaw as a base along with green stuff and…

  • Warhammer 40K: Tyranid Mawloc Conversion

    Warhammer 40K: Tyranid Mawloc Conversion

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K Tyranid Mawloc conversion. The mawloc is based on the trygon kit, but I heavily modified the head. I used the mawloc mouths and tongues from three trygon kits along with green stuff to form the head.  The space marine was easily add by cutting the ends of the tongues, gluing the…

  • Warhammer 40K: Tyranid Broodlord Conversion

    Warhammer 40K: Tyranid Broodlord Conversion

    Presenting my Warhammer 40K Tyranid Broodlord conversion, with freshly sliced space marine.           This conversion used genestealer and tyranid warrior parts. Only the head and the feet are from the genestealer kit. One genestealer foot came with an extension for slotting into the base. I took that extension and merged it…
