They look good. I like the spears. Kind of have a Greek/Roman feel to them.

New necromancer, nice. I think I'd almost have to run him with the skull head to go with my guys... but that's a pretty sweet wizard/priest/necromancer. Nice skeletons too.

Time for a bump, because Ogres are cool and good, and so are their pets













This is Woolly Mammoth #1 from Acheson Creations

Everything "done" so far, a regiment each of boomers and shooters, and a 2H Warrior horde that still need the grass on their bases, plus two more ASBs that need a fair bit more work. Then I need to invent an emblem to put on the standards.

Love those grassy plains ogres, NT!

Cloth: AP Uniform Grey, AP dark tone wash, AP strong tone wash.

Fire: AP Demonic yellow, AP Red Tone wash, highlight AP Demonic yellow.

Metal: GW Runelord Brass, AP Platemail Metal on edges, AP strong tone wash.

Nice job, Squig!

Somehow I've never seen you post your stuff before, which is odd given that we've both been using Dakka for years. Probably down to my own obtuseness.

Anyway, you did a great job on these, so I look forward to seeing more of your work.


And if you're going to post things you have, any chance of putting up pictures of those original Stormrage Veteran resins that you won long ago? I've been wanting to see them ever since you mentioned them in a thread somewhere.

Cheers!

This is actually the first time I've posted anything, it's something I've been meaning to do for a while, just never got around to it.

The resin stormrage veterans remain unpainted, really want to paint them well, will do them once Warpath ships I think.

They're not too exciting to look at unpainted, they're identical to the the restic ones, only with sharper detail.

That's a nice, unique skin tone for Abyssals. Have you considered doing the fire in blue rather than red to match? Either way, they look nifty.

Now showing skeletons for Mantic's Dungeon Saga!

Painting total as of 12 July 2025: 88 plus a Deva King statue

Painting total as of 12/31/2024: 107 plus a set of modular spaceship terrain and two walkers and a quad mech and five giants

Thanks , it's kind of a pain to finish it all the way around like that but it's worth it to me. Something different than drybrushing etc. It needs a lot of cleanup and 'reflective surface whatsits' on the windows and such.

I bought two mega armies in the KOW kickstarter, and painting them is the inital focus of my hobby blog here on Dakka.

That just makes me want to paint up my ogres now! Those look awesome.

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

Here is a commission I did for frontline gaming: I enjoyed painting them, the only hard part was cleaning the mold lines, as the plastic was hard kind.

@Polonius Mantic Ogres are my favourite Orgres and you've done them justice for sure

@Gromgor That's an awesome hoard. I love that KOW lets you be so free in the what's actually on the base.

@Big Mac
The veermyn are really cool. the green/grey is eye-catching.

@Nobody Thanks! I am having a lot of fun putting these scenes together like that. I'm working on a zombie legion using my corpse carts as fillers for them. I really enjoy the creative aspect of this kind of unit building.
