This eclectic mix of figures.
Ferach cantinniere
Orc officer
Froggy aristocrat
Light Infantry Painted
Well I eventually got back to getting something painted. These were almost done so I pushed on and got them finished. Unfortunately I didn’t clean off any flash before starting these so a couple of them are a bit lumpy in places. I suppose my favourite figure is the kneeling one in the bonnet de police. As this group are in various states of undress these will be my elite unit of Ferach lights. If I had a wish list it would be another half dozen of these in similar attire to make a unit of ten. The officer was snaffled from the original Flintloque set – it turns out I have three sets.
HOTT
On Sunday I popped into the Hordes of the Things tournament with my local club. Unfortunately I couldn’t take part this year due to child care shenanigans.
I did manage to get a few photos taken though.
Alien Eggs
I saw this cunning idea on the terrain tutor Facebook group. I thought I would give it a go. I cut some squares out of EPVC and sloped the edges. I then basically glue gunned a pile of Pistachios onto these bases.
I then mixed up some Milliput and smoothed this on with plenty of water. I added a bit of texture with one of the tool’s handles and then rolled up some longthin sausages and let these twist themselves up and stuck them onto the bases or draped them around the eggs.
Hidden Stash
Dark Elves,
After bemoaning the amount of figures I still have to paint, I went into work today and found a box of Dark Elf guerillas hidden in plain sight. Now this is a little tricky as I was going to base most of my games in the North. I have the mounted La Spiga to act as an officer as well as the priest. The conundrum is, do I just get rid of these or, do I somehow incorporate them into whatever I am doing…..
Flintloque purchases
Whoops,
I have just purchased another eclectic mix of Flintloque figures. Ranging from a giant toad to some HEVC halflings, with some dog officers and a squad of pugs and a couple of dodgy highwaymen. I started the order 2 days ago and it has changed numerous times. The only constant was a mounted dog officer: prince Schwarzenbarch.
I promised myself I wouldn’t purchase any more until I finished what I already had! Well that promise lasted!
Random Terrain
Some random pics of some terrain. I will add some more pictures at a later date. The village is a WIP part of a post apocalypse piece for my 6mm road wars games.
The wall is a WIP with the finished article.
The wall is made of 10mm blue insulation foam. It is based on extruded pvc I got from ebay.
Ebay bargain.
I got an amazing bargain off EBay. 8 Ostarian dogs and a mounted one. All for the bargain price of £15.00. They are really well painted and based. I thought the bidding would go wild but I was the only bidder. The seller packed them really well so they arrived in perfect condition.
Orange and Blue
Managed to paint all of the orange tonight and tidied up the blue base colour. Covered the orange in Ogryn flesh wash to add some shading. 
Road Wars
After watching Mad Max a few times I fancied some road wars kind of mayhem. I had already got the GW Dark Future road wars game, however my house doesn’t have room to run larger scaled games. I looked around for something smaller scale. It was then I came across Vanguard miniatures. 6mm road wars… Awesome!
I went for a selection of bikes, cars and mutant types. I still want to get a couple of light rigs as well as another set of hot rods to go with my buggies and chase cars.
I also purchased a militaristic group (the Sisterhood) to give someone for the mutants to fight.I could have gone for the ganger set, or a whole host of other antagonists. The one thing Vanguard doesn’t have much of is civilians. I got these elsewhere.
Bring on the chaos 🙂
