The Daniel36 Chronicles - A Tale of Fantasy Adventures
« on: October 14, 2018, 02:05:47 PM »
As were many with me, I too was a victim of Photobucket's destruction, and it took me a very long while to regain my will to start over.

I finally decided to start an Imgur account after some people requested pictures of my Frostgrave Dungeon over at the Frostgrave section.

Since this site has given so much to me, it felt only right to give back again. This time however, I decided to go to the "regular" Fantasy section, as I am going to chronicle all of my work, not just my Frostgrave stuff.

What to expect?
Page 1 - Several Frostgrave models
Page 2 - A homemade Dungeon + A variety of Mordheim models
Page 3 - Zombies for Mordheim + Several Mordheim scenery pieces + Mordheim in-game shots

Let's start with Frostgrave, the game that got me to join this forum in the first place.


Chronomancer


Elementalist


Necromancer


Witch


Enchanter

I have all of the first generation of Wizards, as well as some later ones. I am planning on getting every miniature in the Frostgrave range as I kind of love all of them. These were the first wizards that I managed to finish painting.

I stayed close to the original paint schemes for these ones, as I really liked them and it was easy to paint from example.

Also, some special characters


Lich Lord


Ghoul King

I like how all of the models are subdued. Nothing overly crazy going on (Looking at you Nagash!) and they have that old school feel to them that I really like.

Anyways, I will post more pictures later tonight, spread it out a little.

Nice  :) Thanks for posting these and looking forward to more. Have to agree they have a nice 'realistic' aesthetic.

Great brushwork for great minis. The Elementalist is my favourite. Like this figures very much.

Thanks, guys!

In the meantime, some more pictures.


Wounded Soldier - I love this guy.


Bowman - Seriously, it's not that hard to add strings. These aren't even that nice but they add a lot to the miniature.


Crossbowman - Inspired by Rick and Daryll from The Walking Dead.


Meatshield


I love how easy the Frostgrave sets mix and match. I just wish I also had the Barbarians, the as of yet unreleased Female Soldiers, as well as all those Gripping Beast plastics while I was assembling. Alas, you can't have it all...


Another Archer


Swordguy


Thief


Other Thief and Apothecary


Templar and Barbarian


And their back


While the Soldier set kind of lacks different heads, they ARE very characterful!


Tracker


Thug

I am currently working on my first Frostgrave ruin. I am quite satisfied with it so far. I will post some work in progress pics soon.

I have a tendency of starting scenery projects, then finding out later that it is not quite what I wanted. Fortunately, by then it is pretty much a table full, so I can still be content. Let's see how far I can take this one.

Which reminds me, I should take some pics at my FLGS, where my "regular" fantasy scenery is currently stalled.

Thank you guys!

Personally, I am not a huge fan of my own painting style, but it is the best I can accomplish.
If it were me, I would be able to paint more like Blasphemia
Link here: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=109002.0

and Cubs
Link here: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=109712.0

Their paintwork has a certain sepia old photograph from the 1800's feel to them which I love and aspire to. Alas, I am still content with what I do, even if it is not what I aspire to.

Anyways, some creatures maybe?


They are so cute!


Rats!


Troll!


Ape!


Bear!


Pile of rocks...


Genie and a bottle


Fleshy construct and boney guardians

Great minis and brushwork, again. But why is your Genie called Christina?

My humor is... terrible... And now I am going to edit its name because it is just stupid...

You guys will be in for a treat though. I managed to recover about 100 pics of my Mordheim models, which I thought were gone. They will be re-uploaded soon!

No need to apologize, it was just, plain and simple, a terrible joke and it had to be taken care of! Hahaha!
