Here's a quick addition to my cave-goblin warband:

Here are a couple more shots of him. He's a great old Perry figure; I love his rather jaunty cap and wolfskin cloak.

As requested by Elgis, here's some more of the lizardman in the cloak (and his striped companion):

An oddity: one of the first savage orcs released (briefly) by Citadel. I've seen these listed simply as "orcs", but when I bought them, the blisters were labelled "Savage Orcs" - and this was before the plumed, bow-armed savage orcs appeared. They're multipart castings with two bodies and a variety of arms. Unfortunately, few of the arms fit the bodies well. In this instance, I've tried to disguise the bizarre proportions (even by goblin standards) with some crude tattoos. I have a dozen or more of these fellows kicking about; I'm hoping that some plastic beastman or Skaven arms might be made to fit them.

This fellow's been kicking around in an almost-done state for a while. I'm now of the opinion that a lashing of gloss varnish will obscure his myriad imperfections and allow him to trot around the table.

Thanks, chaps!

Here are a couple of configurations for my goblin bidowers/scouts for Lion/Dragon Rampant. They'll also form a SBH raiding party in their own right (lots of Good Shots to bump up the points per figure).

Following the success of Song of Blades as last year's birthday present for my son, I thought that Mighty Monsters would go down well this year; for some reason, he has an enthusiasm for Godzilla and kaiju in general that predates the recent film. My preparations were somewhat hasty, given a recent house move, so I found myself, a few days ago, in the predicament of having various suitable monsters, some cardboard buildings but no Godzilla. That wouldn't do, so I decided to make one.

This was a race against the clock. I took myself to Hobbycraft for the first time ever to acquire some materials and discovered a crude papier mache dinosaur that screamed "maquette" (and saved me the trouble of making one). Thereafter, Milliput, green stuff and Milliput again when I ran out of green stuff did the rest. I put the brush to it about one in the morning before the big day. It's a very crude model (I abandoned all attempts at finesse on the body and limbs as the clock ticked), but it does the trick. And - more importantly - he was delighted. That was compounded by the creature's success in the game's initial outing tonight, where it destroyed all comers.

I joined my gun with pirate swords, and sailed the seas of cyberspace.

Many thanks! He was fun to make - or would have been if the deadline hadn't been looming quite so fast.

Here are some orcish raiders:
