Mali-friends and Mali-foes
« on: September 03, 2023, 05:05:37 AM »
So, it occurs to me that I have quite a bit of Malifaux these days. Might as well show some of it off!



This is my 1e dreamer crew. First bit of not-warhammer I ever saw. I'd like to think I've improved since then, but it's still pretty neat.

[/url]

A local game store was having a sale a couple of years ago, including some 2e bokor. Why not?



Sure, I might not NEED six bokor at once, but I have one for Christmas, Halloween (pulling double duties for birthdays since that's my Dad's birthday) and Easter, so I'm sorted for several events.



Know what's better than gremlins? More gremlins! I just like Ophelia's little family (and the fact that her guns go brr).



They look better in person, but taking a decent shot of Perdita's entire family is beyond me, what with my usual photo spot overtaken by moisture.



Now, for my newest malifaux fellows: the Oxfordian Mages.



I didn't mean to go RGB for the colour scheme, I just wanted to have one representing fire, poison and ice...wind's a bit hard to paint.



A semi-local game store has some older 2e boxes with 3e cards, so I decided 'why not?'



Overall, I'm pretty happy with how they turned out, on their Infinity bases. I'm not a super huge fan of the concave bases Malifaux minis typically come with, but it's not usually too hard to find ways around them.

The only way I represented wind elementals was to use white fading down to grey - not the greatest of colours but worked for me :)

An interesting idea. I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever get around to doing windy folks.

Speaking of folks who are probably a little windy...



I wonder who this could be?



It's Burt Jebsen! Owner of the highest number of guns per trigger in the Bayou...as far as I know.



Does he have a mullet, or a hat? The world may never know...



Dang that's a lot of gun.



Love him or hate him, you have to admit he loves his job.

The model's Burt Jebsen, from Wyrd. Saw him at the moab bring and buy this year and how could I not, honestly? I had to add a little green stuff to help stabilize the mini while the glue dried, so hopefully that pile of...dirt* isn't too distracting.

*it might actually be poo

Seems like I only update this thing when my downstairs room has flooded. Must be a coincidence.



Pretty sure these guys don't mind, though.



Just a bunch of good ol' boys out for a good ol' time.



Looks like someone's already had a bit too much of a good time.



Those tiny wheels must be...handy to have around.



Is it soup or booze? Or...booze soup?

The model is Wyrd's Nightmare Edition Whiskey Golem and...nightmare's the right word. The number of times the swing broke off (a bit of a blessing in disguise as it made that gremlin easier to paint but harder to reattach) or when it straight up fell off the base (much less of a blessing in disguise as I just wanted the thing done by that point) but dang if it's not a pretty model.
