Week #45

Last Update of 2019!!!

And Back where we started with D&D miniatures!



A dual wielding barbarian. Big beefy boy. I really like how his base turned out. He represents Naso a human barbarian sorta-NPC in a D&D game I play (we run him in combat but otherwise hes an NPC).



His fur cloak!


After him is the arcanist (?) Iconic from pathfinder. I liked painting her cloak green but some of her details were a little... undetailed and hard to paint. Still her cloak turned out good. She represents Nephenee, our resident life cleric sorta-NPC for D&D. (same as Naso)


Next is the first mini I bought from Heroforge.com a nifty little site you can design and then 3D print minis from. She cost quite a bit (not as much as some of my warhammer heroes though). But Pixie miniatures are hard to come by so I designed one. This is Arianrhod my Bladelock pixie of Prometheus. Shes my character.



From the back. I tried to do little dots in silver on the wing before painting it with a blue wash but it was too dark so I drybrushed it with a lighter blue afterwards.



Finally I based the 3 other characters in our D&D setting, or at least the mini's who represent them.

Left is Boromir who represents Baird our vengeance paladin. Middle is Gloin who represents Philoktetes a dwarven soul in an animated suit of armor. Finally its Circe on the right represented by Elowyn. They were based in snow, gravel and grass respectively.

Weekly Post #44

Back at it again with more models!



The penitent engine from the battle sisters set!



Its a bit awkwardly colorful for a death engine.



Next up is the Repentia Superior who motivates those under her command with vicious and potentially deadly neuro-lashes.



Made 2 conversions to the original model. First I clipped the braziers off of her backpack because I just disliked them. I kept their sculpts though so I can reuse them elsewhere (you can still see the fuel tank on her backpack but its hardly noticeable, I also find it neat that they actually sculpted a fuel tank for her braziers). Next I replaced the standard head which was kind of ugly with a 3rd party head I got featuring a hood and rebreather. I think she looks pretty neat and menacing here.



Here she is leading her charges to glory. I might not have taken pictures of all of them I'll go back and check and post those next week if I didn't.



Next we have the Seraphim Squad. I got an order in of a green gemstone paint which I'm now using for the eye lenses on my girls as you can see here.



Its a bit hard to see the Tartan from the front so here's a better view. They're from Clan Mercia, the second clan I've named from Morrighan I.



Next up is the Seraphim Superior armed with a plasma pistol and power sword.



And a look of her from behind. I'm doing mixed paints for their hair so no two girls have identical shades of orange hair.



Unfortunately theres only a total of 3 sculpts for the seraphim (much like the repentia) but at least they come with different heads to mix things up a bit so I used the alternative head here.



And here's the last one, you'll notice she has the same pose as the firs tone with just a head alteration (I used another 3rd party head here, just a hood this time) The face lacks a bit of depth in this picture so I went back and did another wash of her features. Thats drying right now.



And the full squad. Lighting is a bit poor here but oh well. See you next week.

Weekly Post #42

Some more stuff!

I guess I already posted the mostly complete sister the other day but here she is finished:


She looks pretty good.


Heres a back view so you can see her tartan a bit better.


And a size comparison to the old sisters model and a model that came out sometime between the two designs (The old sister was 2nd edition, the pilot on the right was I believe 5th edition and the new sister is 8th edition) Pretty big difference in scale. The old models I got to bolster my forces will need some work to make them fit in alongside their taller sisters.


Next I painted up a seraphim. The lighting was a bit awful though and I couldn't get it to show her tartan pattern very well. She'll eventually have a flying base but I'm waiting for some specific glue to come in before I put her on it.


A back view which shows off the tartan a bit better.


Finally the sister Repentia I finished this morning. Shes still drying here but 99% done, all I have left is to paint the rim of her base black.
