A whole mess of Fantasy
« on: May 08, 2011, 06:04:55 PM »
Hi guys, thanks for looking! this is my first thread on the LAF, but not the last, as i've been properly sucked into doing as many projects at once as possible! Anyway, most of these pics will be from older projects, but i thought i'd give them another airing on this forum too :)

Vampire and skeletons:





and a Necromancer wip:









Hope you like what you see! :D

Here is what I like: the regiment with the vamp is great, the Necromancer's face with the purple under the eyes is fantastic, the book is really done well with smart designs. Things I don't like: NADA, everything looks great! I really have a soft spot for the undead.

Really awesome work! Empire was the faction of my choice back in the days when I played WHFB. Lovely conversion and that dead jester just rocks!

Cheers guys, seems the jester is getting quite a fanbase, not too bad for about an hour and a bits work!
Just to keep myself on a roll, here's my Arachnarok:



Just the crew and the watery bits on the base to do, and that's her finished! I'm chuffed with how it's turned out, had to deviate from the original idea, but i think it turned out grand in the end!

Some close ups;











next up I'll be nipping out of this thread and posting my Swamp Thing repaint on the superhero thread, and then I'll be appearing in the CoC/Strange Aeons with some cultists I've been fannying around with, so it'll be a small while before I update here! :)

Wow Rochie, great work and welcome to the Lead Adventure Forum! I've seen those undead on Carpe Noctem but therest is very special as well!

I really like your paint-job on the giant spider. Rather than a dangerous/venomous colourful look you've made it look massive and ancient, as such a large monster should be! Can't wait to see it finished!

Thank you Pil! I thought you might recognise them alright, I've been following your stuff on CN for a while, in fact.. now that I think of it, I found this forum thanks to you, so it's your fault my project list has tripled!!!!! :D

On the subject of the spider, it's on the back burner for the moment, I've finally gotten my younger brother back in the gaming fold after years away from it, he said he'd be up for a bit of Flames of War, on the condition I painted his army. I agreed before he'd chosen his army, then he decided (with an evil grin i might add) to do Russians........bastard. So now my entire forseeable future is painting russian infantry...... the things we do for family, eh? ::)

New stuff for the undead;



and it'd be rude not to give him someone to boss around;



I've amalgamated all my skellies into one 40 man unit, and finally gotten them all done! :D
close up of the standard;



my old bsb banner on a really old standard bearer. he used to have a brilliant metal one but it's gone into the void somewhere..pain in the bum.

And a banshee;



Enjoy!
