Warbases Haul

Well as I have been painting so many flintloque minis She actually ran out of mdf bases. I like the ones for magnets. After trying for hours to remember where I got the last lot I remembered. Off to Warbases I went. My 60 mdf bases suddenly grew into a bit of an order including highland cattle, geese, heavy draft horses and lighter carriage horses. I only got the horses as I thought I would make a foray into mdf kits. As I am forever trying to come up with ideas for terrain/accouterments to match the models I purchased a posh carriage and a turnip cart. I also added a set of Lion Rampant and Jugula tokens too.

I really do hope I can work out how to build these as they don’t seem to come with any instructions.

Jägerhund

I cracked on with the pugs tonight. Rather than the purple and yellow of the Von Mohlblume line infantry I decided to make these into some Jäger.  I have a back story, sort of, formulating as to the colours of the uniform. Needless to say I think these are awesome figures. Little pug light infantry snuffling their way into the fray. I particularly like the officer with his one eye and tongue sticking out. These hardly had any mould lines let alone flash or vent marks. It took me twice as long to clean them up because I kept picking up ones I had already done. In the end I actually had to put the done ones straight into a box to ensure I didn’t pick them up again.

Daughter’s Painting 

I am rather proud of my 11 year old. She worked hard on these two today. All her own work, I gave the ideas on what to do. She is totally chuffed with them.


I can see she is going to want some more as she was very disappointed when she had finished them off.

Petrochemicoli and the Dwarf.

Latest figures finished and not some 70’s progressive rock band.


I really must sort out a way to take better photographs. Once the shed is redone I will have a painting area with a light box and better lighting.

I have got the kids painting today.

Civilian Update

I have made a start on these two. I have a bit of a conundrum with the froggy. It is basically down to the colour of his skin. On the website he is a blue colour. I am not so sure about blue, but if not, then what?  He is meant to be mega rich, so his clothes are vivid colours with gold brocade ( base colour on ready for dry brushing with shining gold then top highlight with burnished gold). The dwarf is still in a base colour stage. I will get him further tomorrow.
