Project 2:Size

As size does matter, here is a comparison picture for Simon.





Shout Out! Unite All Action

At the birth of this blog one of my aims was to create a blood bowl set for around £30. It has fallen by the wast side of late, but I came across this post on uniteallaction.blogspot.com which detailed putting together a team for my favourite team the Skaven at a bargain price!

Project 2: Flesh Golem

The second miniature is done, a flesh golem from Franarcilla. I did not want the skin to be the same colour and thought two of the heads had a Frankenstein look so tried to blend in a green skin.

Project 2: Werewolf

This is the first painted miniature for the jail break themed Necromantic team. It is the werewolf from Willy Miniatures. This is a great model and was a pleasure to paint. Hope I can make the prison stripe work through the rest of the models.

Project 1: Dark Elf Runner

This is a little update on Project 1, the Dark Elf team. The picture is the miniture for the runner position. It is the Mandrake Games Workshop miniature. I will use 2 for runners and 2 for assassins, if I ever include an assassin in the team.
I have trimmed the weapon and replaced it with a green stuff football. So he fits in with the rest of the team he has arm plates. I am not the best at green stuff sculpting, so they are made with card board from a cereal box. I cut the piece's out then dampened with a little water so the card board bends without creasing. Then glued and added a light wash of PVA to hopefully seal the card board and make it easier to paint.

This team just has GW miniatures and no converting. Just an idea to create a human team called the Copper Catches with a theme of copper, brown's and orange colours.

The first Dark Elf Blitzer is almost done. She just needs basing, numbering and varnishing. This team will be my first attempt at skin tones so I will follow this guide closely.
