Euro-Goblinaiders....

Goblinaid be at Crisis this Saturday with GA badges on the Ainsty stand so pop by and say 'hello'.

Wargames Foundry will also be there with the 'mini Kev' packs

Sadly Renegade Miniatures (http://www.renegademiniatures.com/index.html) who were selling some of Kev's orc sculpts have had to (temporarily) close down

I've edited the link out of the OP, and will restore it if/when they re-open

but you can still help out by shopping with Goblinaid at RPE

http://www.ralparthaeurope.co.uk/shop/goblinaid-c-123.html

or

Wargames Foundry

http://www.wargamesfoundry.com/our-ranges/goblinaid

or simply making a paypal donation to

goblinaidATfenrisgamesDOTcom

and if you do paint one of the goblinaid minis, post it here it's great to see them painted

DO NOT advertise your personal ebay sales anywhere but in your own swapshop thread. This is spam. Thank you. MT11

Are you selling this for Goblinaid ? as there's no mention of it in the auction description

If not this isn't the place for this

He isn't, and he's done this before in unrelated threads. Should be dealt with shortly...

Ah, drat (I suspected, but hoped I was wrong),

but thanks for getting it sorted RiTides

MajorTom took care of it, and no worries!

Also, back to GoblinAid, they said they should be mailing out my replacement package at the end of this week, so I'm hoping to hear something about that today or tomorrow.

Ancient proverbs tell of a powerful Goblin, son of the earth and the sky who stole the sacred cricket bat from the palace of the Dragon King of the ICC

Born from an egg on a mountain top
The punkiest goblin that ever popped
He knew every magic trick under the sun
To tease the Gods
And everyone and have some fun

Goblin magic, Goblin magic (repeat 4 times)

What a cocky saucy goblin this one is
All the Gods were angered
And they punished him
Until he was saved by a kindly priest
And that was the start
Of their pilgrimage west

Goblin magic, Goblin magic (repeat 4 times)

With a little bit of goblin magic
There'll be fireworks tonight
With a little bit of goblin magic
Every thing will be all right

Born from an egg on a mountain top
The punkiest goblin that ever popped
He knew every magic trick under the sun
To tease the Gods
And everyone and have some fun

Goblin magic, Goblin magic (repeat 4 times)

(and yes this is slightly modified from Godiego's Monkey Magic)

This may make sense after the paint has dried on the latest Goblinaid mini on my painting table

Looks really impressive, Orlando! Do you have a P&M blog where you've got all these compiled? I can't imagine there are many folks that have made as much progress painting all of them as you

Not me this time, but really excellent work on John Pickford's GA rocket rider by Clamshells & Seahorses (https://www.facebook.com/ClamshellsAndSeaHorses)

We've now got the surviving masters back from the awesome Paul Reid at Ral Partha Europe and will be starting to auction some off starting next week. If you're one of the sculptors and haven't let us know yet what you want done with your contribution, please drop us a PM with your instructions (including an address if you want the greens returned).

Thanks!

When the auctions are posted I'll stick the info on here, so if you want a one of a kind collectable keep your eyes peeled

More good news on the Kev front from

Tim Daniel Jonker via Goblinaid on facebook


Hi all,

Tim here. Kev has asked me to post this on his behalf;

i would like to thank everybody who have helped me over the last few months , many i don't even know so its really touched me how kind people can be.

I'm not a social media person so thats why I've not been communicating but its been a busy year with decorating plus hospital visits etc so thats another reason no ones heard from me

I'm making models again and am back in the groove and having fun , my eye gets dry still but I've yet to have plastic surgery which should raise the lower lid .

my operation was a cancelled due to having a toothache and ive still got to wait weeks before i can contact the hospital

i'm enjoying making models again and have missed my work but its been nice being able to decorate the house and get jobs done that i don't normally find time for.

i'm going to be extremely busy this side of xmas so won't be answering emails until i get a break from working because at the moment ive got lots to do so i don't have much free time .

Kev

Kev also sent me this pic to share!



It's really good to hear he's working again, although he's still got extra surgery to come (shudder)

It's good to hear that he's on the mend and even able to work again. I wonder what he charged for commissions? I might have to consider getting some work done early next year, depending on the cost. Something to lead my Orks/Orcs/Ogres. Orlando - do you know how one might get in contact with him?

I'm afraid I don't Azazelx, however the most recent post on gobinaid came via somebody who is in personal contact with him

https://www.facebook.com/timdaniel.jonker

you could try a PM to him to either get contact detail or to pass a request on

and his septic familiar Bernard

I checked with Ral Partha Europe and they sent out my replacement package a bit over a week ago- hopefully this one makes it through fine

Good to see that Kev is looking better, with just the plastic surgery left to go!

Thanks Orlando. I've sent the request on.

If you do get Kev to sculpt something for you I'd love to see it.......


Introducing Vek'Akt Zgak goblin hearthguard. Brave (for a goblin) and heavily armoured (again for a goblin) he can be found in the thick of the fighting (GA29 Bill Thornhill's Goblin)

Definitely will do, Orlando. That gobbo Hearthguard looks great!

Thanks,

the Goblinaid stuff has been a real pleasure to paint so far, n

no need to plan to have matching units, or army paint
schemes,

just grab the paint boxes and pull out what looks fun (ancient GW Snakebite Leather, and old Warlock Purple in this case)

Hi guys,

Azazelx, I've posted your details on to Kev. I've also replied on FB but since your message got moved to my other messages folder my reply might get lost in yours as well!

To the rest of you I must say it's heartwarming to see your great support and believe me when I say Kev is honestly and emotionally touched by all of this and so am I! I think you all are making this world a better place!

Cheers,

Tim

Tons of detail in GA26 Tre Manor's Goblin for Goblinaid. A real joy to paint

(also shows off the new GW Nhilahk Oxide verdegris paint)

Gagagagk of the three eyes showing how dangerous a sling full of spikey metal balls can be (GA30 Pedro Navarro's mini for Goblinaid)

Awesome!

Another great one to paint,

I especially like the touch of the cloak being folded over behind the head which gives a neat skin/fur contrast when painted. Also the skin stretched over the shield looks really cool too

I got my replacements! One of which is the Tre Manor sculpt above. Woot

Ordered mine this weekend.

Great news RiTides

and good to hear yours are ordered Czakk

Glad you enjoyed it mate, I will have to paint some of these gobbos also, but time is so short these days I barely have time to sleep.

Keep up the good work and its always a pleasure to see your painted gobbos.
