Well my storage and carrying conundrum has been answered. I ordered these on Ebay second hand. One has a pluck and store bit the other has a couple of trays with bits cut out. All in all happy with what I got. £35 all in.
I will see how much stuff I can get in these with the standard trays around 200 figures plus the pluck and store and the cut out bits so probably will do all of my Flintloque and all of my Lion/dragon rampant stuff too.
All in all a happy bunny.
I love these little guys. Once again really great to paint. Some tricky flash to get rid of between the legs, nothing a modelling knife couldn’t get rid of. Still wondering whether to put a coloured band on the hat or whether to leave it black. The Foundry Bay brown triad has eventually been used as a skin tone. Probably had the paints 6+ years. I am rather pleased with the results. I can see I am going to have to get some more of the HEVC because they are awesome. Naming the individuals is going to be the tricky bit.
Run for your lives fairies have been seen in the kitchen.
Send for the Fairy catcher! Forget what you read in fairy tales. These little buggers are vicious.
Started on these this afternoon. I would have got further but we had an invasion down the chimney and I tried to find my booklet with the uniform colours on – not sure why….I normally just make it up as I go along
I finished these this evening, another lovely trio to paint. I am a bit miffed that the back of the kilt is better than the front😱. For some reason I went with a red base coat ( had some spare red from the chaplain’s tunic) it limited the colours to use. In hindsight I should have gone with a green. I might put a light wash over it to tone it down a bit.
Next up is the HEVC halflings, an Ostarian general and some fairies to finish off.
I doubt the chaplain will get anywhere with these two
Trying to get them finished today then onto something else 🤔
All painted (well apart from a wash on the butt of the blunderbuss)
Onto this lot next. An Orc chaplain who seems to be doing his best to ‘save’ Pluncorc and MacMean. No doubt hellfire and dammnation will be included.
Cracked on a bit with these this morning (I actually got up early).
I am really enjoying painting these. Not sure why I like them so much, probably because they are so full ofcharacter. The orc in the raincoat makes me think of him standing in the rain. Stuck there with a look of resignation on his face.
A trio of civilians with the washes still wet. I do like this set, I originally didn’t get the dwarf woodsman as I wasn’t going to have any dwarves. This may change as I really like the dwarf civilians set. The bloodhound with the blunderbuss is awesome. For some reason I think he is going to be a gamekeeper or something like that. I did consider him to be Ernst Von Krum’s gentleman’s gentleman. We will see how he looks when finished. The other two in this trio are fab. One armed with a knife, the other unarmed.. he reminds me of a coachman in his heavy coat. Time to make a coach methinks. I started one for Mordheim, but I think it bought the farm 🤔☹️.
These seem to have taken forever but I got there in the end. I have real problems photographing anything I finish. I did actually paint the faces of the Zombie line and there seems to be a blob on the vampire’s face. Just the basing and varnish to go.
