My small 5 hour project just for fun. Old GW mini
More photos as always at my blog http://pinatwar.blogspot.com/2015/02/blackorc.html

Very nice.

I love that Orc. One of the first fantasy miniatures I ever painted but wow you make it look about a million times better than I did. Love all the other stuff but for me this just demonstrates how good you are as that mini is really quite good.

Cheers

Thank you for your great comments. They keep my going. This time I painted totally different stuff. From the great boardgame Descent 2nd edition they come to prey upon innocents: Arachyuras and Cave Spiders (painted by my girlfriend while watching some TV series

Recently I have prepared a tutorial on how I make bases for my miniatures/.
Please notice that this is not a guide for professionals who make outstanding scenic bases. It’s rather for wargamers who are looking for some tips and inspirations to make good looking simple bases for their vast armies. I hope that at least some of you will find that article to be interesting and useful.

Hi all,
I've just published my new work on my blog at http://pinatwar.blogspot.com/2015/09/woodenhouse.html. Just a simple wargaming element for Song of Blade and Heroes / Lions Rampant skirmishes. I've started this almost year ago. You can see some WIP photos of that building here http://pinatwar.blogspot.com/2014/09/houses.wip.html

Long time without any update from me. I need to change that. Just finished several new foot men-at-arms
More photos as always at my blog http://pinatwar.blogspot.com/2015/09/perry-miniatures-foot-knights-1450-1500.html

Some new additions to my medieval/fantasy army. This time i used a little to much light and the pictures become too bright but I hope you will forgive me.

Finally I finished my first bowmen unit. I deliberately had not attached the banner to the pole because I have not yet decided what faction these models will represent In the following photos you can see 7 new models that I have not published until now. I encourage you to visit my blog where I described the short story behind these miniatures : http://pinatwar.blogspot.com/2015/12/perrybowmen.html

Your house is excellent! Especially the roof.

For all interested I have just finished a small tutorial about creating flags for miniatures.
In this article you will also find a file with my custom-made flags and some interesting links to websites with a large amount of ready to be printed flags.
You can read it on my blog at http://pinatwar.blogspot.com/2016/01/how-to-make-flags-for-miniatures.html

This thread is full of so much outstanding and beautiful work, thanks for sharing! A real treasure trove of inspiration here.

Thanks a lot for your kind words Bottle!

Well thankyou for all that help with the banners from that tutorial and the link. I shall now attempt some fairly ambitious things with some miniatures. Cheers for spreading the hobby knowledge
