Skaven color test

So I started a new army ; the Skaven.

This is a fella of the Island of Blood set.

I tried to avoid brown because of the fact the Skaven are mostly brown.

So I used a vibrant yellow , a dirty white and a sewery green.

And I based the bases on the sewers theme with lost of goo and mold.

This will probably be the last miniature of 2014.

So the grand total stops at 210 miniatures this year.

It is almost double than the 125 miniatures I set as a goal at the beginning of this year.

Stay tuned for next year. With a few new army's. Such as the Skaven , Bretonnia and Beastmen that where lurking under the Christmas tree...

To all a Happy New Year !

 Painted : 210 / 200

6 Old Dwarf Warriors finished !

I bought these a while back (only 6 unfortunately). And Yesterday I finished them.

They have the same color-scheme as my other groups of warriors.

I'm also tracking a lot on ebay to expand the group with 12 more of them.

So fingers crossed...

  Painted : 209 / 200

Last Paint Table of 2014.

I'm working on several things at once...

I started this week with the Witch Elves. Moved on to Bretonnian archers, then started on the Dwarves and finally started the Bretonnian Knights.

And as you see , the Dwarves move on more quickly than the rest. Because I can't decide on a color-scheme for the Bretonnians. ( my first idea was all Knights in a different color and add groups of archers and men at arms with the same color as the Knight for each Knight.)

Ideas are always welcome !

I hope you have a great weekend ! 

Last Paint Table of the year 2014 !

Don't forget to reflect on this year and plan for the next year...

High Elves Sorceress Alastriel finished !

Yesterday I finished Alastriel from Reaper miniatures.

I've integrated her in my High Elves army.

I used the usual color-scheme of my High Elves army except the hair color.

She is the fire / air mage.

Painted : 203 / 200

Paint Table Saturday 57th edition !

Paint Table Saturday 57th edition ! 

Not much happened sinds last week. I've been busy with work.

No progress on the Dwarves , but I started on Alastriel from Reaper miniatures. ( Darcy Perry at http://hitstokill.blogspot.be/ finished his last week and it inspired me )

Skin , hair and top are almost finished. Needs some light tough ups or highlights.

And as you probably noticed , Alastriel is my first High Elf that has a different hair color than my main color (blonde). 

I'm trying to create some different mages. The mage from IoB with the green mantle and the purple cloud is a Nature / Spirit mage. 

For Alastriel I'm going for Fire (hair , gems maybe sword ) / Air ( flowing of the mantle ).

I hope you have a great weekend !

Hello everyone !

The move is almost finished !

The paint table is 95% finished. Only a few tweaks are necessary.

Almost all my painting stuff is now placed together for max efficiency.

I hope to finish the move in the coming week and maybe find some time to paint again.

I hope you had a great weekend !

As you can see no paint table at all at this moment. Everything is in boxes and pieces at the new location as we are in the process of moving. There are still some things left to move ( some boxes and furniture ) and I hope I can quickly rebuild at the new location so I can show something at the next paint table. 

I hope you have a great weekend !

Dwarf Beer room WIP

I made some time to convert some Dwarfs to fill up the Beer room.

2 Dwarves with some beer jugs. One who found that he was not content with only a few jugs. So he took a barrel. And as 4th the musician, who takes the time for a tune instead of drinking. But not for long of course...

Not much happening on the paint table. I finished the Dwarf beer room. But the Dwarves & the little details are still missing. I'm going to put at least 2 ( drinking / drunk ) dwarves in the beer room and some details. 

( glasses , bottles , abandoned weapons & shields , etc...)

I hope you have a great weekend !
