Artificer!

This is the guy that got me to re-buy into ret. I just think it is an awesome pose.

Obviously a wip. Tonight I'll get working on the rest of his coat and start making my way onto his armor.

Finished Destor mounts

Had a longer post, then the phone died so I lost it :)

Still to do? Matte varnish and work out how to do the riders without cork stands.

WIP - Destors

It occurred to me today that I don't need to east and find the time to 'formally' photograph my models and pop them up after uploading. Work in progress shots are just as easy and can be done entirely from my phone! So here are my Destors and their Thane. At least, here are the horses. I love painted cav, but I'm not quite sure I love painting them...

Piggies!

I have some piggies.

Short story: Really really wanted to paint up the Warpig and Lord Carver. Nothing else overly appealed to me, but I picked up an army to justify using them :) I have played probably 3 games and just can't quite bring myself to paint anything else at this point :)

Enjoy!

Slow Grow Beasties and Infantry/Solos

Well, can't fit in all the images on one post :P (btw: click on the images to make them bigger)

Pureblood: Not quite happy with him. I just didn't get the blending done the way that I really wanted it done. He looks OK, but I could be happier.

Woldwatcher:
Blackclad: Love this guys' cape. It is one of the most dynamic things I have seen in any model, ever.Wolves of Orboros: I have six of these guys painted now, but will be doing 10 + the UA for the 50pt.
There are also some shifting stones in the 25pt, but really, they just look like stones, so they don't make it in :P I have a painted Baldur, too, but I might drop him up another time.

Toodles!

Slow Grow League!

I"m running a slow-grow league around the newcastle game scene at the moment and figured this was an opportune time to start painting up my new Circle stuff. I picked up Circle recently in order to prepare for the new Hordes Battle-Engines,so it worked out really well for me.

At the moment, I have everything painted for our 25pt level bar an Argus.

Caster: Cassius

Wolf Lord Morraig (This guy has earned his points over so well after laying 17pts of damage on the Butcher before retreating and having Big B spend the rest of hte game chasing him through the forest:) )

Nemo 2010

Yeah, I know. I suck. After making a grandiose claim that I would be posting more often as a new year resolution, I actually post less. I blame internet fail for this, but I suppose I can blame all I like :)

I figure I may as well kick things off with the Old Man of Cygnar. I have always been a bigger fan of Nemos fluff than I have of the old man himself. Then they released the 2010 sculpt and it said "WIN" all around. This is perhaps the nicest sculpt of any model I have ever seen. I love him and he loves me :)

If I actually have any readers, you've probably noted that I am a fan of the traditional paint schemes. I don't know why, I just like them. I have done a few of my own, and they do work where they come up, but blue Cygnar and red Khador just work! Nemo2010 is very much just a classic color scheme, but I'm very happy with how I pulled it off. I particularly like his eyebrows :)

Oh, as a side note, I am no longer using photobucket as a hosting service either. I'm too stingy to upgrade to a "pro" account, just so it will host a 600x800 image without resizing it and compressing the hell out of it. My photos should look a lot better now for being non-photobucketed.

Cheers!

Nathan.
