Thanks Archer! Before I found Dakka, I use to scour White Dwarf articles for recipes and really enjoyed their step by step guides. I still have a large binder laying about that has a large collection of those painting tutorials. I enjoy how the priest turned out as it has an old Warhammer Imperial feel to it. I think an army in this scheme would be baller.
Again, utilizing an old recipe: The fur was first washed with Drakenhof Nightshade followed by successive dry brushes of P3 Frost Bite and then Morrow White. The mouths were washed with Carroburg Crimson Shade.
Yeah, Magic the Gathering has cut into my painting time by a lot

Thanks Cam and Gits! It's actually a model that my friend spliced together using two different files.
Up next, Mr. Feels, a Cambium which will represent a demonically possessed individual in my campaign that is spreading drug addiction throughout the population and which will also highlight the Government's draconian crackdown. He also gives excessive massages without consent! He will be modeled after the skit below!!

I've been painting but haven't had time to upload pictures:
So as a Christmas Present I painted figures for each of my Nieces and Nephew that represents their personalities and created a placard that described the character.
The Crazy Cat Lady:
The Bar Wenchel
The Emo Adventurer
The Red Queen

I also wanted to post up my Dungeon Crawl that I created for an epic Ancient City Ruins that the party spent over 3 months exploring.
It was made from Dungeon Tiles and Wargaming Terrain that I repurposed. It had 3 levels: The Street Level, The Upper Stories, and The Sewers. At the end, the City exploded and the characters had a death defying escape. I used Legos tor represent the exploding buildings and purchased special bits to create Lego figures for each party member.
The LEGO EXPLOSION!

That dragon made me stop scrolling and actually say "wow" out loud - great job! The scales in particular were really eye catching and I agree it'd look great across an army of nids or dinosaurs.
That's a cute idea for a Christmas present - the minis and cards are both well executed!
That dungeon crawl looks massive and like an absolute blast. The Lego figures are such a cool touch. Did you manage to get through all three levels?
