Garrick the Bones

Ok ok, so his name is Garrick the Bold, but this is from (you might guess it) Reapers Bones line! I picked up 2 of this model, 1 for myself and display and the other for my son who wanted me to paint it up for him. So this is my sons model I painted up, the other will come later on sometime.

Here are some pics!

 I tried a few different methods in here, namely the way I did his armor, sword, and shield black. I used black ink mixed with your standard acrylic paints, turned out pretty good if I say so myself (the flash off the camera doesnt help much). Well back to doing something, I havnt decided yet but I will show you when I am done! Enjoy.

No bones about it..

..I really do like Reaper Miniatures new Bones line.  "Why?" you ask. Simple, first they are a fantasy miniature line, not to mention the price point is fantastic (aka cheap). The models look great and the best part? I can pull it straight out of the package and begin painting right away!

That has got to be my favorite part. No cleaning mold lines, no pre coating with primer (you can if you want to but you dont need to), and they are a great buy!

So this post is not just raving how great the line is, but as in the title, This is about the Skeleton Warriors pack. for $5 you get 3 models, skeleton spearmen with shields. And here are some pics::

I really enjoy painting these, just hope my LGS gets more in. I find painting 1 of the pack between projects helps me refocus as well as getting to paint something. Well now I am off to paint some more things and plan my newest terrain feature, just need to find the right materials.

Until next time!

Trollblood War Wagon

This is it, the end of April. And I am able to squeeze one last post in! This is the Trollblood War Wagon from Privateer Press. A Battle Engine for the Hordes army Trollbloods. It is a commission piece, perhaps my last until the end of summer, and was asked to be a quick paint job.

This is a battle engine, its hugh! the base is roughly 5" in diameter, the size of a CD. As this is a model, it was lengthly to assemble but came out great overall. But onto what you want, pictures!!

So there you have it, the Trollblood War Wagon. As I mentioned earlier it was requested to be a simple, quick, basic paintjob. The base was custom sprinkled with random parts from other factions to add flavor as if it is riding thru a battlefield. I did like the way the armor on the War Wagon turned out and overall satisfied with the finished piece.

Until next time I will be working on painitng more of my own personal stuff and maybe working on some terrain for at home gaming. Either way I will post some pics up when I get to it. Enjoy!

Gnoll Warrior Bones

I cant stay away from Reaper Miniatures Bones line. This one is the Gnoll Warrior. His price was only $2.50! The thing that appeals to me about the Reaper Bones line most is the fact that I can buy it cheap, take it out of the package and start painting right away. No preliminary work needed. No flash or mold lines to remove, no priming needed, just out of the package and paint.

Here is the Gnoll Warrior from Reaper Bones, enjoy!

Seriously whats not to love about this line? Although in its first run of miniatures, hopefully they will expand on more of them. OK, now back to painting after uploading 4 posts today, it might be a while before I do more uploading. Take care.

Objective Markers from Privateer Press

As the title says. These Objective Markers set was released in late 2011 (I think) and I had them painted for a while now, just now uploading and sharing them. They are apparently Privateer Press's first run at their own terrain, and they came out nicely. Here are some pics to enjoy::

Ammo Cache

Mechanic Station

Supply Depot

And there you have the 3 Objective Markers. I did have fun painting them (as usual).  I still have more things to paint, and more pics to upload, but for now this is what I have caught up on. Now back to doing something creative...like more painting!

Royal Paladin 2 SDE

Super Dungeon Explore is a great fun game. Here is another commissioned piece for the game, the Royal Paladin (or possibly Samuel L Jackson in chibi form). Some pics to enjoy:

Probably could have stuck this with the Candy & Cola 2 I just uploaded, but done all the same. Until next time, make sure you heal.

Candy&Cola 2 SDE

Oh Super Dungeon Explore, what a fantastic game. This model, Candy & Cola, is a limited edition model for the game. This one in particular is a commission piece done up just right to specifications.  Here are some pics:

I named this Candy & Cola 2, because I have yet to do mine up proper. Actually most of my Super Dungeon Explore needs painting, just waiting for a break from commissions to get them done.
