Argonor's (hopefully) ongoing Strange Aeons/VuK thread.
« on: March 03, 2014, 09:24:18 PM »
Finished painting these two yeasterday.

They are Victorian/Gothic Horror 'Evil Henchmen' from West Wind Productions Classic Vampire Wars range, but for now I'll use them as inbred degenerates for my VuK Cult de Ghouls (and maybe for Strange Aeons Lurkers, too).

I'm wondering if it works linking a pic from a blog (EDIT: It worked!):

Kind of iffy on the actual sculpts themselves but must agree you've really done them justice. Looking forward to seeing more of your work and thanks for sharing.
We haul ours to kick theirs.

Thanks, guys, much appreciated!  :)

There's a lot more to be seen on my blog (http://www.argonor-wargames.blogspot.dk/), including an AAR of a Strange Aeons game.

You can also see some of my minis for SA/VuK in the LPC.

I'll post some 'teasers' up here, everytime I do something befitting the subject.

Breakdowns of the colours will (almost) always be on my blog, as I also use it as my painting log. It won't get misplaced this way  ;)

If someone has questions about anything, I'll be more than happy to help, if I can (I'm not a Master of Painting, like some of the other honoured patrons of this site, but I strive for ongoing improvement, and if I can ease the way towards good results for others, it makes my learning-by-doing much more worth - beside teaching me, what NOT to do  lol ).

You can ask here or comment on the blog (comments/suggestions/criticism are/is more than welcome - it's the only way I'll learn and improve!).

Nice work, sir!
 :-*

I like those rather quirky sculpts.

I had quite a few of that range some years ago, making up a rather 'different' looking Blood Bowl team out of them.
Love since sold, but I do have fond memories of painting them


Looking forward to updates.
 :D

I finished a mini earlier this afternoon (flock drying on base now), and I shall post a pic later this evening.

It's another Vampire Wars mini, but still one I intend to use for my Eastern European Cult de Ghouls.

Toady has officially been renamed 'Vladimir', but I cannot comment further on the matter.  :)

And here he is. I have no less than two packs of these guys, so I won't run out of potential new cultists for a while  :D

Great additions to your cult :)

I recognise some of those from the Analogue Hobbies challenge too!

Yup, I use the painting clubs to get projects on tracks. It's awfully nice to have more than one kind of incentive to get some minis finished. It also helps that I have been at home with a strained ankle the last 2 weeks.  :?

I had planned for my Cult de Ghouls to get finished 3rd, after Dagonites, and a Death Cult, as I had to do the most minis for it, but the LPC gave me the opportunity to move it forward.

I am working on the Magus for my Dagonites (the only model pending for it), but I got delayed watching a lot of TV about current events (on which should not be commented here).

I just had to order a few minis from Heresy today - I was quite certain, I had the 'Vampire in Bat-form' from an earlier order, but its whereabouts eludes me, and I need it for Strange Aeons purposes, so I ordered it, and a Dark Lord, and a Witch with Cauldron, I'll use for a Witches' Coven with a couple of Dark Sword minis, and a Black Cat tavern dancer (gypsy girl). I should see if I can get some gypsies to use as guards/minions...

Nice work!
Love all the new additions, but my favourite has to be the 'cultist'.
Some lovely vibrant colours on that fella.
