Keeping you posted from the workshop because im psuched at how he's becoming
He;s planned for a beak job of sorts with a giant tongue hanging out.
also the back needs some fitting and he needs some hooves. And ofccours the extra arm on the other side.
Im going to try and make some kind of helmet for him but not totally sure on how to go about that. But hey, its only the main focal point of the model!

Next up will be basing as i dont know how to proceed with this, maybe putting him in his scene might get the juices flowing again.

Tips are always welcome

Thanks for the kind words

Currently in the local sinterklaas tradition so needing to build me a surprise for my mom. Will be startin tomorrow as I've been procrastenating like a mad man about this.
On the other side, i have been prepping my sweatshop and changing up some stuff to make the room more comfy and make my hobby gear more accessable. Almost done with that, still need to put up some RGB-leds on the back of the closet to make the gamer room more,... gamey.
My paints are out of sight and it's looking more and more like organised hobbying instead of a garbage dump. So, fully set on building the ting for my mom now! Should go fast.

I did also squeeze in some time for a side project which kept me busy in my mind. I'm pretty stoked with the way it turned out. Behold, my dice holder / point-turn-tracking-thing / storage / infantry movement tray between tables / dice-throwbin. Should only need to add a beer opener and we're solid for the stockmarket I suppose.

Also, the maulerfiend says hi
only needs his front feet, some back tentacles and his final little details + gaps fixed with GS before ready to paint! [the list always seems longer when you type it out then when you have it in your mind I guess ]

Hi, probably need some help on the front feet thing.
I was planning on copying the back side legs, but just bigger. But I'm highly doubting my plan here.
Could also just give the paws a trim with a metal spiked ring at the end. Not totally sure. (like the mallet lord from Diablo 3)

The rest of the model is done I think. Maybe add another eye here or there if I get crazy but this will be it I think.
*I am fixing the mashed up tentacle thing in the left backside of the model. splitting them up and rearrange them a bit.

I still have some work left on the other maulerfiend so I'll probably just work on that until i get myself back on this one.
Any tips are always welcome.

cheers!

Hi there, a small update on some game objectives. This year I got some rust set as a Christmas gift. Decided to make some markers as to make the gaming gaming table look the part.

It's thick cardboard, that compressed stuff on the back of a writers pad.

Just my last 2 cents for 2021.
There is much more going on in the scenery game at the moment. Will be having an all out battle first week of 2022. I want to have an oké table for that, that's why the big jump to 100% scenery the last few projects.

Until we further update again!

So here we go, off to another random painting spree. Back to the quick-dip-down-and-dirty way of painting! (dirty in a good way offcourse)
It's difficult to not paint the boots on the pants of the ruffians, which are ready for basing, but in the end you will not see much off that and the basing is interesting enough to cover that up.

The orc scouts and orc bowmen batch is done and mat varnished ready to play!
Have been painting them with my girlfriend which was a blast so it almost felt like no effort.
2 middle aged nerds sitting at a table together listening to R-kelly's trapped in the closet CD, because you got to hear the story. Or at least, try to read trough it on some lyrics site. It's amazing. Pretty awesome club he went to that time.

small edit:
We also finished the spiders and the wraiths. was fun playing around with contrast paints. It was the voluptuos pink and some old vallejo transparant blue that i had laying around. Combined the colorscheme in the 'boss spider'. Wraiths, just easy and simple. No quickdip as they will only get less scary i think. I hope it doens't break up the total playset in the end with everyhing being rather brownish-hewed. O well, you live you learn. [annndd add the pics so you don't have to re-edit for a third time pls]

Anyway.
Here are the pics for my online diary
Untill next time we meet!

Then again an update, found some time to work on the maulerfiend that i broke up.
Removed the head and made a top hatch with Gwar's Oderus Urungus as walker commander.
Really wanted to use the model and i think it makes him look cool.

Needing some catchy phrase for the banner, havent decided yet.

So, painting will becoming the next thing. If only i can find an excuse to model some more

Now, Pics or didn't happen!

Here's a short update on the painting of the maulerfiend before im going to desastrously ruin this paintjob with way too much colors.
lenses will go yellow/orange
chest and eyes will glow green
searchlight will be blue/white
teeth color yet undecided

On a personal note, I really hate painting the tentacles. It's so repetitive to block in the insides with a metal color... Already looking forward to the plated side. And then i have to do 3 more :( Braindamage incoming.

feel free to comment, though I'd just share this progress with you guys.

Hi there,
Just finished the maulerfiend [except for his pink/purple base trim]
Thought I'd share/keep the log updated.

You know, more models painted, much better and such

cheers!
