Very very cool!!! Thanks a million to everyone who voted- You guys are awesome




I've some more work to show tonight:
Fungiens are just about done now. Repainted the blue-gray one to match, as this is a 2-man unit and RiTides wanted them to fit together. I took the red of the mushroom cap and put it on the tabard and facemask of the horned guy.

These are off to the "just about finished" pile. I'm going to wait until I have a group to paint the bases all at once.





In addition to the Shrooms, I played some with the giant Sacral Vault stand-in. Concept here is to go Albino with it, and I think I managed a decent base for it. Still a number of highlights and (more importantly) more shades to go, but you can see where Im starting to go.

So cool!!! So very very cool... And its so HUGE!! I mean seriously, seriously big. Heres a pic WM put up of a single piece of shin armor next to a Knight:



I dont even... WHAT!?
There are no words, just unintelligible garbling. xD


Plus... Is it just me or is number 121 really pleasing? I mean its not 111 or 100, buuuut.... Palindromes xD



This project is going to be a particularly nice treat

==================

But before that!

More work on Deathroll, this time a number of minis from the DeepWars game. Its some kinda underwater combat game... Kept meaning to get a game in at Adepticon, but just couldnt make it xD Next year, next year...


Anyways, these guys are rather cool looking models, especially the big nautillus. I may need to get one of my own after this all is done!



I am attempting to replicate the stock color scheme on these, which include beautifully mottled chestnut-colored carapaces/shells. Going to be a lot of experimenting with inks and washes... But that's for another day

I think it would be totally cool number wise to have all 0s or 1s, so who ever got 01,10,11,100,101,110,111 should have extra blessed armor rolls.

I love that blue you've got going on for your undersea critters, a change from usual cthulhoid greens. The Warlord, well, I shall just add my noise to the chorus of squees.

Wow, so much progress, and it all looks awesome!! Love the shroom fellas, you've even got mushroom spots on the one on the left . And the deep wars models are killer - glad you were able to "extract" the driver of the vault to be able to paint him!

Camkierhi - The giant gator holding up the vault is going to be an albino look, which was an idea that came out from Ramos discussing options of how he might paint it, and I think is brilliant!

Great job on the Knights, from the poses and the added parts (especially the shield), to the paint job.

and I like those little mushroom people too.

They look great - you should actually try a game of DEEPWARS too, as that system is a lot of fun!

So paint the turtle to match? Can do! I'm much better at making notes than I used to be... Now I have a notepad and everything


And yeah, I definitely plan to do DEEPWARS come next Adepticon. I meant to do so this year, but it completely slipped my mind!

Just the shell . Not sure about the turtle skin, I had been leaning green... although PP paints their turtles with red skin. Do you have a preference? Green would certainly blend in with the army more easily.

I like those... a lot!

Reminds me that I've always been intrigued by that deep sea war game I see demoed at Adepticon for the last couple of years. Should stop by and try that some time.

We'll all need to do a better job of getting out next year.

The demo table has been amazing every year. Here is a pic of one I took years ago


Now back to all about Ramo's fantastic painting blog and Future pictures of WM Warlord titan!

Next year some demos are definitely in order!! As fun as it was to play (read as "lose to") you guys, We definitely gotta do a better job of exploring xD
I did actually demo a game called "Aetherium" or something of that sort. Very neat cyberpunk game. Its a skirmish style boardgame where you play as virtual avatars and other "programs" and try to defeat your opponent by elimination or capture-point missions. I even picked up one of their larger minis. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to painting it!


No warlord (gonna be a few weeks at least on that). but dont worry. After I do get it, you'll be flooded with images!! I plan on documenting every possible aspect of the build/paint process.


But enough of that for now, I have MINIS to show!~

Several of the Deathroll miniatures are complete, starting with Helix himself, A Swamp Horror:






And the Animist (I believe), standing in for a Witch Doctor:





The Telepath, who rides atop the Sacral Vault:



Everyone's favorite Cute lil' Shrooms, who are counts-as Swamp Gobbers



Lastly, A Waldgeist from Malifaux, who stands in for the Feralgeist. I tried to convey this by making him a little more ghostly than just a plain tree.



===========================

STILL TO GO:
Rask - Privateer Press
Maelok - Privateer Press
Wrong Eye - Privateer Press
Shamblers Bokor - Ashoka from Helldorado
Bull Snapper - Squamata Spitter from Helldorado
10 Gatormen Posse - Ágriosávra, Myrkanio, and Eikovra from Mierce Miniatures
Wrastler - Canopic Beast from SMOG
Ironback Spitter - Whati from Kaha Miniatures
Snapjaw - Privateer Press
Sacral Vault - Kaairioc-cro, Sea Devil from Mierce Miniatures, Cephalid Telepath from Antimatter Games, and bits from Reaper

===========================

Oof... still quite a bit!
Well, back to work!!

Wow, the Nautiloid Chrysalid model (aka Helix aka squid thing ) looks just like the studio model, simply stunning!!

They're all incredible, I'm so impressed! Your usual projects are very imperial / armor heavy so I was just a hair nervous when commissioning this crazy job, but man, you are killing it
