Ratty man 2

A slightly better pic, with some additional parts.

Ratty man

It's been a while but here's a little something I'm working on at the moment. Sorry for the crappy picture :(

Hopefully once finished I can take some better pictures

Skitterkyn Skittering!

Well that was a longer break than I had intended from posting. Many things distracting me from posting and paining, namely a new job :)

Heres a new character for my chaos warband project, the Skitterkyn!

I'll hopefully manage to get some paint on it later tonight ready for a proper post and introduction to the model.

quickie!

Well my dwarfs have arrived from Anvil Industry after only being ordered on tuesday! That's two days, great service. I even got a little note about the out of stock warriors being on the todo list at some point. This I can understand as theres loads of new stuff coming soon including their own games system. Slight downside was a missing champion arm but they did throw in some extra command bits which I'l have a bash at converting.

Also you may have noticed my new logo. I had a bit of fun in photoshop using some cool tutorials I found online. Im quite happy with it :)

Im hoping to get back to some 'proper' hobby stuff this weekend and try to paint up some of the stuff thats built up recently.

Also I could resist ordering some secret weapon ruined temple bases Available from Wayland Games here

I'm not dead, just sleeping.

Its been very hectic here, what with having to find a new job (boo!) As such its been very hard to get inspired to work on my pile of bits for my inq28 conversions.

Hence I've decided to pick up some figures I've been after for a while but never got round to pick up for one reason or another.

These are the fallen dwarfs by Miniatures of the North, fantastic looking figures which i really want to paint up an army of.

Ive ordered enough crossbowmen for a unit of 15 with comand. Unfortunally the warriors were out of stock so they will have to be my next purchase.

You can find more info on the sculptor here on his blog and id highly recomend checking it out.

ixor the keyholdyr - Nearly finished

Managed to get some paint on Ixor last night, hes come out a little differently to planned, mostly due to some weird wash seperation. That will teach me to shake washes properly before use.

Here he is:

Im not sure what my next figure will be, im thinking of working on some scenery for some better backgrounds for my photos. I do have my Iron Warrior champion to work on, but its not really inspiring me at the moment.

I may just have a browse online and see what figures inspire me.

Ixor the Keyholdyr - Work in progress

While I wait for my conversion bits to arrive i've put together this happy fella, a member of a warband idea thats been forming in my head. Linked to my Chaos Preacher figure this new warband is The Wardens of the Shattered Aquilla.

Ixor the Keyholdyr

During the fall of imperial rule and crushing inversion of the warp the sanctary known as the Bastilia Imperious was beseiged by scores of refugees seeking shelter from the horrors that had decended. What went on within the walls of the Bastillia are a tale for another time, but it was Ixor who sealed the great aquilla and his ears to the screams of the demons and the damned. Each time those who needed entry rang out on the doors he denied them, seeking comfort In knowing his duties were just.

Ixor still holds his precious position, serving the now corrupted masters of the Bastilla, his skin marked with pox and boils, each a mark of a time he denied entry to the inocent, Itching and painful they constantly require attention from Ixor distracting him from his duties, After all the great god Nurgle enjoys a good joke.
