I like all the wizards and things that you've made!

So I spent this morning working on more Frostgrave models. Got a few done and plenty of work on others. Thought I would throw up a few pics of what I've gotten done.

Treasure markers!!!! Ok, maybe not that exciting, but important nonetheless.



A wizard, most likely a Necromancer, perhaps a witch.





And finally a worm for the encounters table.





That's it, hope to have a few more up later tonight.

Nice worm.

The caster is pretty cool, in heavy armor with a dramatic cape, but still obviously a spell caster. His oversized left hand reminds me of the Pale Master prestige class from 3rd edition D&D, where you would eventually replace a limb with an undead graft, could paralyze people like a ghoul's touch etc.

Very creepy guy, good colors, would be at home leading some marauders/cultists, as well as miscellaneous undead.

Have you had a chance to play yet? I'm thinking for 12 bucks the kindle version of the corebook seems like a decent purchase on the off chance it's good, always wanted to play something mordheimy.

Wow, so its been awhile. I have actually been painting and playing a ton, more than ever actually. All warmachine, all the time. Painted quite a bit, but I tend to speed paint my warmachine stuff, and while its not awful, its not worth writing home about either. I want to get into some Inquisimunda stuff and so broke out some of my GW stuff. Bought this guy from my FLGS awhile back and figured I would paint him up to use as a leader of a chaos cult or something. Experimented with a couple things on this model, including darker flesh tones and the axe blade. Overall I like him.







Had a lot of fun with this guy over the last two evenings. Going to try to make it a point to post more. Maybe even put up some of my better Warmachine models. Thanks for looking and feel free to comment!

Sweet! Good to see you still kicking around

Nice worm.

EDC

Good to have you back Squall. I like the darker skin tone on the Slaughterpriest, the axe looks great as well. Inspiration indeed to get my unmade/unpainted one done.

It would be good to see your Warmachine stuff too.

Aye, good to see you back in action! That guy is looking good, the axe head in particular! I'd love to see better pics if you get a moment, the flesh looks good but it's a little hard to tell.

Would you mind getting a photo of him next to a space marine please, Squall?

I will do that this evening when I get home. He's pretty huge and towers over them.

Thanks for all the comments guys. Good to be back!

So I'm still working on Inquisimunda stuff. I'll even put up some WIP later today as well as the scale picture I promised but forgot about for AoV. But I finished off a model last night I was pretty proud of so thought I would post it. I have a few days off work so production has amped up. Even got two gams of warmachine yesterday. Anyways, less talk, more pictures.





Will get more picture up later. Also, I just found this game called This is not a Test thanks to Grim's blog. May have to make a couple models for that too today.

Good stuff! Excellent contrast there with the blacks, brown and blue all having their own distinct texture and finish!

Agreed, really good work on the skin, armour and cloth there Squall. TINAT (is that the abbreviation?) does seem like a very interesting rule set, I like some of the miniatures produced for it as well.

Nice mini! Is that one of those "trollbloods" I keep hearing about from Hordes?

I believe the most typical abbreviation is TNT, Thraxas. At least it's what I'm going with. Sorry if you got hooked Squall, but I blame Carlos13th for pointing out the impending rulebook kickstarter that got me looking into the game in the first place. Hobbying was cheaper before I was on Dakka

Yeah, Grim, that is a Trollblood. Not my main army, but the model was too cool not to paint.

As far as TNT goes, I am definitely going to do the KS. It will be my first KS that I have done (besides going on for a dollar) since Dungeon Saga, so as long as it goes better than that I will be pleased.

So first off, here is the scale picture AoV asked for over a week ago. Like I said, the guy is a giant, even compared to space marines. Scale creep is real. Like, super duper real.



Next up is a scout / ranger for Inquisimunda. He could also see work in TNT or Necromunda. He can just be whatever. I like him though.







Lastly is a space marine scout for inquisimunda as well. I used marine legs to make him larger than a normal human, as even scouts have undergone some of the space marine training / surgery etc, so I thought he should be bigger. I used a scout body and shotgun, a grey knight head, and the shield I got from a buddy. I will probably shave some of the BA insignia off his legs and make him from another chapter, as I have plenty of BA stuff already. Also need to clean up some of the cuts I made on the gun. Anyways, You'll get the idea.







May get some more stuff up depending on how my day goes. If my wife wants to go to the brewery this evening though, this will be it till later this weekend. Thanks for looking and feel free to comment guys!

Never complain if the wife wants to take you to the brewery .

Really like the two kitbashes, the Skitarii head is especially good on the free company body. Some great pieces on those kits for post apocalyptic/zombie/ near future miniatures.

I like the modified scout, I prefer space marines with less chunky shoulderbits. Does the scout have a bow in addition to a rifle/gun of some kind? Definitely doesn't want to be caught unarmed does he?

So I have been working on the Scout and some new opponents for him to face. They should be ready in the next day or two. In the meantime, I thought I would show some of the warmachine models I worked on during my hiatus from the blog. There are a lot, but I picked out a few I liked.















Also, a couple models I threw together when I heard Blood Bowl was coming back. Haven't figured out a color scheme.





And that's about it for tonights picture dump. As I said earlier, I will have some more 40k related stuff up in the next day or two. I also bought some of the new Genestealer Cultists off ebay and should have those later in the week. I'm going to make a small warband and then try to pull of some cool conversions with the rest of them. I got one sprue for 25$. So that's about 14 hybrids, one guy with a mining laser, and two of the aberrants. I feel like that's enough to work with.

So thanks for stopping by, and as always, feel free to comment!

Just looked at the pic of that Slaughter Priest, wow he's a big lad! No scale creep though, Squall. The fluff describes them as towering figures, living beacons of Khorne's will.

Heh. Those war machine skeletons with the powerfist type things are really cool.

EDC

AoV- He may be big in the fluff, but he is ridiculously tall as a mini. I like him a lot, but I wish he was just a tad more in line with the rest of their minis. Oh well.

@ EDC, Thanks. They are mostly just a lot of layers of washes.

So I finished off some purestrain genestealers while I'm waiting on my cultists. I hope to have them by the end of the week. I wanted to go with all blacks, whites, and grays but added some green to the carapace at the end to make it a little more interesting. I'm going to try to do the same kind of things with my cultists.







And also, to prove that I'm working on it, here is a very early WIP on my space marine scout. I have actually NEVER painted an ultramarine before, so I thought I would give it a go. As I said, this is very early.



Thanks for looking everyone.

Nice stuff. Between you and Paradigm, I'm really getting fond of a light flesh and black carapace for the stealers. Would mean you could use more pallid/grey tones for the cultists' flesh as well. Neat. Taking notes, I want to get these eventually.

Ultra looks like a good start.

I saw Paradigms stealers and thought they were super cool so I tried my hand at it. You could say he heavily inspired me. You could also say I blatantly stole his idea. Both sentences would be true. I do like the idea of having very pallid skin on the cultists. I think of them being underground based on everything I've read in the fluff (mostly Ciaphas Cain novels) so it would make sense.

It's a good scheme what deserves to be ripped off, plus there's enough differences between execution that the schemes aren't duplicates. The acid green spot color is a nice bonus.

When/if I get the cultists (forget the main box, don't need more space marines and don't have time to part things out and resell) I'll probably be blatantly ripping both of you off

So I've been out of town the last few days so haven't got much done. I've been working some today though, after finally getting back home. I don't have anything done yet but thought I'd show a few WIP shots. I got my cultists in the mail Friday before I left so started on those. Also, been working on my scout.

Here are a couple cultists with their base coats mostly done and some wash on some of them. Trying to make the color scheme match the genestealers I made earlier, so I'm sticking with lots of grays, blacks, and whites with green as my main color. Hopefully it will work as well on the cultists as it did on the purestrain stealers. I'm going to brighten the green up, don't worry!



Here are a couple of the cultists. I did some basic head swaps. Now they can be cultists or just regular soldiers in other games such as TNT or whatever.



Finally, here is a picture of the scout. Slowly but surely coming together.



Hoping to have some of these guys done tonight. Will post pics if I finish.

Good stuff, good luck getting some more work in.

Awesome Stealers, the green accents are very effective! Really like those head swaps on the cultists too!

Steal away on the scheme, I knicked it from Januine in the first place!

Got the cultists finished this evening. Started a little bit on the two head swapped troopers but haven't gotten very far. Here are the finished models!













And that's all for now. I really like how these came out. I'm going to paint the troopers in a different color scheme as I plan to use them in other games. I will do the rest of the cult in this scheme though. Trying to get a necromunda sized warband in this scheme.

Those are sweet. I need to get some of these.

Nice work!
