eHaley

G'day all,

Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. Its been a tad rough with juggling the new baby and all the rest of it.

I have been working hard on all four of my current factions (Cygnar, Retribution, Khador and Mercs), and I've been having fun picking out the "best" models to paint up and all :) I've just put the finishing touches on a Drakhun, and he was great to do up. I'll grab some pics of him when I have a chance.

Speaking of good models, I'm going to have to grab another faction, and go with the angry Voodoo Crocs that look to be coming out soon. Those guys look awesome! :)

For now, here is eHaley. I'll get some of my Trenchers and her army up over the coming weeks.

Cheers!

Nathan.

Butcher 2010

The mighty Butcher of Khador.

So I started owning a Khador faction when I started seeing the extreme Juggernaughts and the only real warcaster they have worthy of running an extreme Juggernaught is the new Butcher sculpt! (or at least it seemed that way).

Only painted him up recently, but pretty happy with the turnout. I've started spending alot more time on faces, and I believe the result is showing through.

Destroyer Extreme

So I finally got around to finishing off the companion 'jack to my Juggernaught. All in all, I think the Destroyer actually came together a bit easier than the Juggie.

After a good deal of effort and time, I'm finally really happy with how my reds came together. I think the final count was 30-odd coats of watered down red ink to make all the purples and peaches come back to red. It shows, though , and I like it alot.

He doesn't get as much table time as my Juggie, just because he's not quite as versatile, but he does have pride of place on my painting shelves :)

Cygnar

So a while ago I painted up and sold a Cygnar battlebox. I was pretty happy with how it all turned out, with a predominantly white look to complement the Cygnar blue, and have recently gotten back into Cygnar.

I started off with Darius, as I've always liked the man in the machine-armour. One of the new Cyclones had to be in there as well as the eponymous Thunderhead. Unfortunately, my camera hasn't quite performed as I'd have liked with this last lot, and I'm still working on the whole miniature photography without a miniature lens thing :)

I also now have a full eHaley tiered list, but I'll pop that guy up here another day.

The Ortegas

So these guys are comission pieces. I was pretty happy with how they turned out. It doesn't show up in the photos so well, but the pants are all using the "Denim" ideas expanded on in FOW: Cygnar and it has quickly become one of my favourite color surfaces to use. When I borrow a good macro lens and can do my trenchers some justice, I'll pop them up on here - they have made liberal use of the denim stuff :)

Malifaux

So, like alot of people, when Malifaux launched, I was more or less compelled to go up and pick me up a bit.

Unfortunately, the game wasn't for me, but I've now painted up a bit and really really like the minis.

Marcus was alot of fun to paint- I hadn't done alot of "beast" type minis before this, and the POS lighting on Marcus himself was fun to try and get together. My last couple of tries didn't work out all that well.

I've since done more Malifaux up as comission work, so getting my eye in nicely for the fine detail on these guys.

The bases are woodchips covered in greenstuff.

NQ #30

So I got an email from the editor of No Quarter today letting me know that giant Juggie made it in. Haven't seen the edition yet, but damned cool anyway :)
