Reed's thread of all things fantasy

[Barbarus]

They certainly look amazing! That skin tone is just perfect

Hope to see much more very soon!

Great work.

You've create a WONDERFUL Band of BEAUTIFULLY painted Little Rogues. You're brushwork & eye fore color are OUTSTANDING; you bring out out the ample personality in the miniatures. VERY WELL DONE!

[Reed]

Today I present you a shaman, who joins the already known band of goblins. It's a Citadel night goblin shaman from the 90's
that I purchased on eBay a couple of years ago just for nostalgia. It's one of the first miniatures that I wanted to have when I
discovered the hobby.








That's all the goblins I had, for the next updates I will post something different. Demons, maybe. My lead (and plastic) is not as bigger as yours, most of the things I have are remnants of failed armies for WHFB, which I'm trying to sell, and Confrontation minis, which might be my side project.

That puppet on the stick is sooo cute!  

BTW, nice paint job!

[Reed]

Did I say that I don't fancy painting metals? Well, here comes a dude practically covered in chainmail and icons with an enormous axe.





The miniature is a Khornegor from GW, that I purchased with the idea of using it as some demonical servant or creature for an equally demonical sorcerer. There is another Khornegor still to paint, which I started to paint along the finished one here, until it slipped off my hand and landed in the glass full of dirty water

Hello once again !

My fantasy project is on standby now, mainly because I've run out of suitable miniatures. So, while I'm gathering funds and working on my thesis I've decided to lower down my lead mountain of forgotten figures. I have some Alchemists of Dirz from the Confrontation range that I purchased about two years ago. I discovered the range when they came out (twelve years ago or so, iirc) but, being a kid with limited funds and no clue about where to purchase them, I forgot about the idea.
Here it is, my first Confrontation miniature painted: A humble clone of Dirz! It is also my first approach to NMM, which is obviously nowhere near to perfect, but I like it for a tabletop level.









Now I'm feeling the itch to buy more Rackham figures. Damn...

[Reed]

Recently, a member from another forum commissioned me to paint some monsters for his updated Heroquest. The first chosen figures were these armoured skeletons, from Otherworld Miniatures. Really nice sculpts I have to say, it's the first time I've  got something from Otherworld in my hands.







More to come !

[Reed]

Updates on the Heroquest commission. Today: not-zombies.

The guy who commissioned me for the job isn't much a fan of the "zombie" concept. He even owns an Oldhammer army with hundreds of figures, and not a single zombie in it. But the game requires zombies, so he used some "counts as" in the form of Mordheim Dregs.





I painted them as if they were deserters from an army, or some peasants, who have succumbed to their darkest instincts (cannibalism), becoming ghoul-ish.

In addition, a family pic of the undead family

A couple of test pictures trying another background and lighting

I really like those skeletons - especially the one with the raised axe.

[LordOdo]

Ooohh, the non-zombies look goood!

[Reed]

Thanks for the kind comments, people 

Today, I'm bringing you more Heroquest goodness (28 out of 38 figures remaining, this is going to last for a while) in the form of a couple of gargoyles, with evil intentions and worse-looking faces.





Next in the queue: greenskins.

[Elbows]

Gorgeous work. Loving this project.

[Garder]

Really nice. Thanks for sharing.

I am waiting on my goblins from the latest Crocked Claw kickstarter. Could you please tell me how you painted the skin on your goblins? The look great.
