Well this evening I got on and painted the bases using Greenstuff World Skeleton Brown.
Tomorrow I will get the rims painted.
Oh I will need to get the gesticulating archer’s skin painted.
I also need to finish the knights on the flank.
Yeah I am just about done with the guards.
Everything is painted apart from the bases. These haven’t been done yet as the ground texture paste is still wet.
As you can see I also added the paste to the knights as I had it open. Sadly I couldn’t be arsed to get it on the civilians.
Well I decided that not being arsed wasn’t good enough, so I kicked said arse and got the paste onto the civilian bases.
Some straps and belts to do as well as facial hair and the usual unfinished base.
This evening I worked on my guards. Metal and skin left to do I believe…
A little scamp informs the guards what he thinks about the proclamation regarding an increase in taxes.
I’ll carry on with these tomorrow.
Well I got a start on the military types this evening
The guards are from the Guards employed by Lord Grennith. He is one of the five rulers of Traitor’s Toll.
The knights in the back are… random…. But have a lot of red, yellow and blue…can’t think why!
I am definitely a few twinkles short of a rainbow at the minute so I really didn’t fancy doing anything at all. As you can imagine I really had to force myself to get these progressed.
Can you tell that I hadn’t realised that I basically had the same bloke with a bag. Thankfully their lower halves are different. One is barefoot and the other has trousers and boots. The rear one also carries a pickaxe.
Well I managed a smidge more painting this evening…
Just the bases left to go on these… I may do a little more on the foxes.
Managed a bit more painting this evening. Not a huge amount but there is definitely less white now. I would actually say it is the feathers on the shields and some hair on some of the models. Tomorrow I will get all the straps sorted on the weapons etc.
Well as I was painting the cult miniatures the name just popped into my head….
The amount of red on the person denotes the standing in the cult. Once again as painting them the idea arrived.
I am having an easy day today as I am absolutely buggered.
Well I decided to get these finished.
As you can see they brought a couple of little friends with them. Not exactly a dread hunting pack. Where someone else might have bears or wolves they have a pair of foxes. Wolves I have plenty of. Foxes…two!
The one thing that kind of bugged me with these were the way the bits were fastened to the sprue.
Bugged is maybe too strong a word, luckily I have sharp cutters and files. Trying to get these off with a knife would have been an absolute sod. It literally is 25% of the base of the arm. There were others just as bad.
So maybe I will get to start painting stuff again sometime. I have forced myself off the console and onto the kitchen table to get back into things again. The backlog is starting to pile up. I was going to say ‘again’ there, but higher is probably a better description.
