Hello all, i've mostly been a lurker here for a while... I love that other people in this world also have large undertakings in miniature form. I have a larger collection of Rackham models that I am currently working through. I also have a lot of game works models that I have finished, but will look to rebase from their square bases at some point in the future. I also have collected many boxes of warlord and fireforge guys. I really like fantasy set in the medieval period from the late 1300s to the era of the first muskets. I play mostly games using Deus Vult rules or Dragon Rampant. I play the occasional skirmish using a revised hexless version of heroscape or Confrontation 3.5. I'm not into games with a million rules.... it robs the fun for me, and kills any chance of getting one of my gaming buds to play that game with me.
Currently I'm working my way through the entire set of Rackham Lions of Alahan mounted figures. Though I'll post some past work from earlier in the year of some Griffins of Akkylannia...
First my Knights of Alahan, the Red Lioness, Muscian and Standard Bearer, and Baron Dragan
-
Some Griffins finished earlier this year...
-
Some fun shots of my last game of Dragon Rampant... rather large forces... The Lions were under attack at their stronghold from the Orcs in the west and the Goblins and a giant in the east... their only hope was to send for help from the Griffons... who arrived on turn 3 just as the Lions were engaging the Orcs and surprised them from behind... the other half of the Griffons force went to take care of the Giant and those pesky but numerous Goblins... what no one planned on were the lizardmen riders appearing out of the north and storming through the open gates... luckily there were some conscripts there to handle them... we are only probably 1/3rd through the battle, but have had fun so far.... played this with my 6 year old... i was the green guys and gave him strategy for his side... He's a quick study.
-
It is so incredibly lovely to see some old Confrontation in action like this! Thanks for posting :D
-
A couple Griffin Thallions that were also finished earlier in the year... they are a hardcore religious sect of the Griffins... Illuminati-like...
-
lovely looking game of DR, and like your painting and basing style a lot.
-
Thanks! I mostly paint to table top standard as I play with my guys a lot... basing is fun for me. I really enjoy creating mini dioramas. Each faction has a different vibe since they are from different territories.... I've since started on my dwarf steam cannon... really enjoying painting it up!

These were my 2 foes today... we are only about half done with this one... not looking good for the green guys...
-
Here are pics of my last personal guard knight to Baron Dragan for the Lions of Alahan... this completes the mounted figures for the Lions...

man, what a lovely looking thing (dwarf steam cannon) - nice job on it, and hate to think what that would cost on ebay etc these days!
-
I feel like I stole that cannon... $35 plus $15 shipping from france... it weighs a ton!... giant chunk of metal. Will add a lot to the table for sure.
-
Steam cannon has been finished except for the base... i'm very happy with the results... the brothers are very happy to have such a capable piece of equipment next to them on the battlefield! While i'm getting materials together for the base I have started on one of my favorite Griffin sculpts, "The Inquisitor"....

Nice work! I like your color choices, gives a consistent look to your fantasy land. That last bone-dude is really cool.

Did a rebase of a prepainted Rackham Griffin Praetorian guard... painted a few more details on him... using him as a prisoner this weekend in a game of Dragon Strike! Also started on this Rackham Clone Dasyatis from the Scorpion army of Dirz.... he's barely got the base colors on.... neat looking guy.

:o amazing work!!!
-
Thanks... i'm new to miniature painting as of last fall. I've been painting on canvas since i was 10, so I know about mixing colors and layering... it's been a journey learning to apply it to little guys. But, i've looked at a lot of peoples work on here and follow some amazing mini artists on instagram and have learned a lot. Still learning... my stuff doesn't look great at all compared to some guys stuff on here... this forum has an amazing base of talent and creativity.

Finished up another Kelt Sessairs barbarian giant... building up the Kelt faction... need to work on some of the lesser minions for this faction next...

Nice to see Confrontation is not forgotten. I should get back to my Uraken army.....
I don't recognise the mounted Griffin though?
-
I don't recognise the mounted Griffin though?
I'm fairly sure it's from their ill-fated pre-painted plastics range.
I too love what you've done with the bases. Really gives them an impressive look.
-
Great stuff! Flesh tones look fantastic.
-
Thanks for the kind words... I really love making bases... brings a lot a realness to them. Yes the mounted Griffin is from their plastic line... it's the only place to get mounted Griffins aside from the mounted Thallions, which i have not gotten around to painting yet... That one happens to be Sir Thurbard....
Here is my Kelt Sessairs Minotaur commander I just finished... and a group photo of the clan to date...

Looks like a fun game!
Wasn't Dragon Strike an old TSR game that used a VHS tape? Or is this a different game?

That was it! my VHS is still in the box in the plastic... it's been uploaded to youtube and is notoriously horrible!... the game is somewhat similar to Heroquest, which I also love, but my game group is large and Dragon Strike accommodates up to 6 adventurers... It's good for one epic map... Heroquest is much better for campaign, because you can level up and upgrade your weapons/spells with the gold you've collected during the previous adventure... i'll still say some of the best games were made in the late 80's and 90's...

Great work throughout the thread! Will stay tuned. The scenic bases and woad stand out and make the barbarians memorable figures.
Some photo tips.
1) Use a bigger f-stop (smaller aperature). I use between 7 and 8. This increases the depth of field, allowing you to get all three figures in focus, even if one is a bit behind another. This will mean you will need to keep the shutter open longer, so a tripod is a must.
2) Three lights is best, two right in front either side of the camera, and one not-quite-directly above, but a little in front. If you have just one, make sure it is even more in front, and not directly above.
3) Cropping enhances the pictures dramatically, and with these photos a bit more exposure and contrast would also do well.

Thanks for the great advise.. I definitely need a front light, but I'm currently taking the photos with my phone. Not ideal, but easy enough for sharing. I'm not trying to win any awards... it's all just for fun.

photo tip if you are only using your phone use a light grey background. When you use white the camera wants to make it a neutral grey so the figures look really dark, if you use a light grey the camera will not compisate and your figures will look mush lighter.

great tip.. it came with one i'll try it out... i added a front light and they are still dark.. couldn't figure out why!... let me try that.

Ok, thanks to the tip above I switched backgrounds and everything instantly got much brighter... here are pics of my weekend progress...
Kelt Sessairs Danu warrior 1... these guys came in a set of two , one being the normal guy and the second being a spasm of himself sort of like a Hulk creature... they made three different Danu Warriors...

Great work on those, always nice to see some Rackham metals getting some love!
-
my goodness, their minis had such flair - character and 'elegance'.
I'm a bit out of touch - are they going to become available again?
anyway - lovely paint-jobs.

There was a Kickstarter recently that will have a lot of the sculpts available again, but they will be plastic... these are all metal, and i've accumulated them all slowly with a lot of hunting and ebay... they have gotten rather expensive, but i love them and think the sculpts are top notch. I expect a large ebay dump of the sculpts when the kickstarter is delivered next year... I use them for a multitude of games and RPGs, not just Confrontation.

Finished another Kelt Sessairs Barbarian Giant... love these guys... the Skelly hanging in the back by the hair was very fun to paint... About time for another group photo of the Kelts... it's truly becoming a clan...

I had a collection of 50 or so alahan and griffin miniatures - lovely sculpts, challenging to paint.

Here we have it finished with the bridges and mine track... did a quick home-brew Heroquest crawl with the kids to try it out... good fun.

I have not been idol in my absence! Worked on some maps for my first DND group... we had a great time going through part one of Lost mine of Phandelver... You can see my puzzle system for "fog of war" in the unexplored areas.. I pre-built it and had each area ready to assemble quickly when they got to that area.

Another thing I've been up to is one of my Kickstarters came in. "Shifting Realms" by Craig Van Ness one of the lead developers for Heroscape. The dragon was lacking some character, so I gave it some flavor.

That dragon's terrific!
The D&D table looks brilliant too. I've always been a bit wary of blacking out areas (rather than laying fresh tiles/sheets) in case it gives too much of the layout at the table, but I suppose it's actually harder to figure out than one might think.
-
Appreciate it! Here is his brother... Keratis warrior 2... tho I did just notice I forgot to paint the shaft of his lance... so imagine that painted too...

Great stuff you have here. Rackham minis were so ahead of their time. The backstory of the company reminded me Crossgen Comics company as they run almost at the same period.
Rich guy wants to make a company that will compete quality and art wise the products of the well established market leaders of the time. Gathers great talents that produce fantastic results, the public is taking notice and sales go up. Until he decides to over expand while making every wrong move in the book. Company goes under but still everyone appreciates the products.
-
That's pretty much it... tho most also think switching the game rules massively with "age of rag'narok" and going prepainted plastic and abandoning everything done before also sealed their fate... they couldn't afford to do what warhammer has been doing to their custys regularly... tho, I have 99% of the prepainted plastic too as it was probably the best prepainted stuff I've ever seen.

Thanks so much! I've only been painting just over a year now, so I'm still learning a lot. Studying lots of the pros on this site... but I'm having a lot of fun with it and I think that's all that really matters.

I've started working on a new war board with modular tiles by secret weapon miniatures... I love the detail in these... I've gotten them primed, basecoated, and one of them with the first layer of flocking to establish a concept for them all... 95% of my armies are based with one of these 2 colors, so they should all look at home on these boards...

I like those too. I have the urban tiles and they look good. I've been after half a dozen of the landscaped tiles to integrate into the urban tiles to represent parks, etc but finding them for reasonable prices in the UK is not easy.
-
i've been waiting for individuals to list them on ebay... and snagging them after some haggling well below list. I have a set of the wasteland tiles as well for use with some of my future wars and gaslands games... looking to get a set of the damaged streets for future war stuff too....

Ok, I've got 4 of the boards finished... so naturally I had to test them out with a small skirmish of griffins and some dwarfs fighting the dirz... 12 more to go!

Long hiatus from anything in fantasy world... been working on a future war project and a weird ww2 project... glad to be back in fantasy land though.... continuing with my Kelt Sessairs army is Orhain the Erudite.

I've had these Fireforge guys assembled and staring at me on my bench for almost a year... so I decided to throw a quick paint job on them... I'll use them for any number of games... glad to have them not shaming me anymore...

Nice figures and well painted.
I really liked the Rackham range.It was a real killer for the company when they went to plastics though.AT-43 would have been great if the figures came on sprues so goes for the Confrontation figures.They should have kept the metal figures though.I still have loads of them sitting in boxes all over the place.
Picked up some of the Secret Weapon terrain tiles but did not get the connectors for them :(.
-
Finished up a few Perry sculpts that have been primed on the bench for for too long as well... will use them as fancy heavy knights for dragon/lion rampant and other skirmishes...

absolutely fantastic! :-*
-
Great work on these, I especially like the archers- I don't think I see those painted as often as the rest.
-
I appreciate that... Aside from the factory paint jobs that you can google, i don't see hardly any of these painted. For how many they sold, you sure don't see nicely painted ones pop up online much. And not on the battlefield especially. I'm getting close to being able to have a nice size battle strictly with Rackham models... which is something I would LOVE to see from someone else online too... i might be the only one doing this??
-
Great pics of the army so far. :-* Excellent work and I'm a sucker for group shots. They really look top notch.

I often have similar thoughts about a number of ranges, but yeah, Rackham figs are a prime example. They are still second to none after all these years and I'm sure there are many with closets-full. Speaking for myself, I have quite a few but have never counted myself a Rackham fanatic but I have a good number of them (and just bought two large forces at a convention recently), and they are among my favorite figures in my collection, especially the drunes, daikinee and a few from Cadwallon. If my painting queue priority was based strictly on quality of figures these would be higher on the list, but in reality there are many competing factors in prioritization.

Gibby you give us beautiful Images of what can be done with all those Rackham minis.
Keep your spirit!

Switching back over to the Lions of Alahan army, here is the first of 3 Falconers... his base will be next...

Pretty sure the Falconers are Alahan troops?
I can only agree that it's sad how few painted Confrontation armies are seen around the net. I'm one of those with the closet full, but never painted much of the collection. So many other projects always luring away my attention.
It is a constant joy to see updates to your thread, though!
-
You sir are correct... they are Alahan. My mistake! I've been priming up a bunch of Griffin fusiliers the last few days.... mind is on Griffins! I think because Confrontation fell out of favor that people parked their minis in the que... however I just love the armies and how unique they are and the lore of the universe. I'll use my armies more for wargames then for confrontation... mostly because I'm the only person who knows how to play it in my area (and most likely the only collectorand painter)... I have 3 young sons, so there is hope for a sparing partner in the future!
-
Finished up the last 2 Falconers... the brethren are complete...

I recently treated myself to a 3d printer for my birthday... I had a bit of learning to do, but I feel decently confident now and I'm achieving good results... here is my first fantasy print... some whimsical trees for scenery... still need paint. My kids as well as I are all mesmerized by the process...

Thank you, i'm new to the 3D printing, but I've loved watching these structures get created out of nothing. Very fun technology and the best thing is I feel like a have a little robot helper that keeps working on my hobby while i'm away!

Loving the Kelts - great painting!

Great painting on those Kelts Gibby. I used to play Kelts in Confrontation when it was still a skirmish game. I have a box of unassembled Warriors and Fiannas somewhere.... you've made me want to dig them out and put them together.
That terrain is looking pretty nice too. Would fit nicely on a Frostgrave table...
-
Thanks guys! The encouragement keeps me going... this year I will be switching factions and even games every month so I can move all my interests forward quite a bit. I've set up a painting schedule. At the end of January I'll stop painting kelts and start painting lannisters from CMONs ice and fire... I'll also be painting LOTR/Hobbit figures and other factions of confrontation this year... each on a monthly basis so I can see good progress for that game/faction...

Well I made quite a bit of progress on the Kelt army in January..... I will now pick up my Griffins of Akkylannia for Feb and hope to knock quite a few of them out... This musician was my last Kelt of January... and this member of an artillery unit is the first Griffin of Feb.

Making good progress with my Griffins this short month... the "Minelayer"....

Very nice, as usual. :)
Isn't that minelayer from the Hybrid boxed game? I think I recognize him (as I have both the game and the expansion). I really like that part of the Griffin line; they're (almost) realistic, yet they still have a definite air of fantasy about them. 8)
-
It certainly is! I have the game, but have never played it. The Griffins are my favorite human faction. I have all but 2 of the models from the Rackham line. AND I'M HUNTING THOSE (for a reasonable price)

Which models do you need then? I have a huge collection of Confrontation models (and also loved the Griffins), which I’m gonna sell, now that we have moved and my daughter was born.
Maybe I can help.

Tremendously good paintjob! :-*

The mounted standard bearer for the Griffin Praetorian Knights... sadly rackham didn't create any metal mounted knights for the Griffin army. They did give us some beautiful mounted Thallions that I hope to be painting pretty soon... but this guy is from their prepainted plastics line and I added quite a few details and rebased him of course... thankfully the guys who have created Legends of Signum have carried on the Rackham style sculpts and have several mounted figures that are a shoe in for the Griffin army. I'll be grabbing those in time.

blimey, I should think you are indeed happy with those trees, superb.
... I wonder how long it'll be before consumer machines can pop out such models 'coloured-in' to a standard few of us could match.
be a very different hobby then I guess. The crafting side will be a thing of the past for many gamers in 5-10 yrs - and why should that matter after all.
love the new figures.

Yes, 3d printing is doing wonders to the hobby.... here is the second Templar of Hod from the Griffin army.

With a bit of tlc and attention, those pieces can look really good! 8)
One suggestion; perhaps put some colour on those shields? Even just a plain off-white or something like that would help :)
The pieces match your basing style pretty well too. I take it they're made to match your tabletop?
-
You are absolutely correct. I was waiting to see what color green i will be using for my Rohan shields before I took them further. And yes, I have 2 colors of flock that I use for my armies... for my terrain pieces I have mixed the 2 together so either army looks at home on the boards.

Setup some maps with the new terrain (not all painted yet) for my D&D group... we are making our way through Lost mine of Phandelver.... these 2 encounters are Agathas Lair and the Ruins of Thundertree. Was lots of fun.

I've worked on this guy off and on for a couple weeks for the bi-monthly confrontation painting competition on the CONFederation forum... my first time creating one of these mini dioramas... I wanted it to still be playable though, it will just be a rather fragile piece...

Thanks! Start painting it... you'd be amazed how great it looks and how you can fit it in to so many different games... i've been using these as DR warbands, monsters for Heroquest, monsters and NPCs for DND... i love the sculpts and people always pick them up over other makes and comment on the detail.

Been a bit since I've posted in fantasy... been working on a Bolt Action army and a Black Powder army.... happy to be back in fantasy land... this will be my PC for our next DnD campaign... Wandyr the Bloodthirsty, a Kelt of the Drune clan... work in progress....

Brilliant! I like these models even more than the later series when everything was multi part and required a lot of very precise drilling.
-
Thanks, these are great sculpts and very "heroic" looking. It is also nice just to glue the shield on... I have several sets of these and plan to make a unit of 12 plus command for Dragon Rampant.

Brilliant idea! Ionly have a set of three.
I didn’t understand why there wasn’t a second or third set realeased and instead those multi-purpose models with interchangeable arms. In the case of the griffins they looked okay with a mace, but much slimmer. Worse still, those armies with spearmen had only models clearly designed for brandishing a handweapon...cynwall, for instance, don’t look good at all.
Do you modify Dragon Rampant or use it from the book? When I bought it, I was dissatisfied with how they handled heroes and monsters (basically just units where you don’t remove models but hitpoints).

There is a second set of the spearman single casts in different poses... i have 2 or 3 of each set (small rackham collecting disease)... I have a few sets of the multi-part guys too... i plan to so 12 with the mace, and 12 with the pick-axe. That will all be some time in the future though as i'm trying to build opponents armies 1 for 1... not sure who i'll jump to next... i'm also working on my GOT project.... TOO MANY PROJECTS!! so fun tho... as for Dragon Rampant I basically play it how the rules state. I haven't gotten in many games with my confrontation guys yet, but I plan to add their abilities from confrontation to their stats in Dragon Rampant to keep it much more themed in the Aarklash world.... Also looking to modify GW LOTR rules for smaller skirmish games in the confrontation universe...

This squad is done.... 6 heavy spearmen and my command for the Griffin Conscripts... had a lot of fun painting these overly fantastical sculpts from '98/'99.... many will say these were done before Rackham started to get really good sculpts churning out, but I happen to think they have a sort of vintage charm to them... can't wait to field these guys.

First of MANY Cynwall Elves... they are the High Elf faction for Confrontation... they originated from a separated tribe and stumbled upon some old ruins of an ancient city. They decided to build their civilization upon those old ruins and became allies of the dragons that live in the woods nearby. They follow the "Light" and are allies with the Griffins, Lions of Alahan, Dwarves of Tir-Na-Bor, and the Kelts of the Sessairs Clan..... i've never seen a completed army of the Cynwall Elves done before, and have searched extensively... they were not a particularly popular faction to field in confrontation and many didn't like the sculpts... but I've come to love them and look forward to building my first Elven army for confrontation as well as Dragon Rampant... alas, this is one of the standard troop units... a spearman... and yes it's a man... they are a bit feminine looking...

Nice work, must admit I hadn’t seen the figure before but bags of character.
Also I suspect that you spent longer on the base for that mini, than I do actually painting some of mine :D
-
Appreciate it! I have to admit I don't have an aim right now... I have several projects that are in differing states of completion... but I'm having fun painting a lot of guys that I've been wanting to paint for a long time... and they can always fit in a warband somewhere ... so it's not for not...here we have a work in progress kelt of the drune clan... "Formor Fiend"....

Did you use Contrast paints for the metal parts? Looks quite effective.
-
the metal is contrast basilicum grey, then army painter dry rust dry brushed, then agrax earthshade wash, then highlighted with Reaper sky grey.... so, not just contrast paint... but i've been finding formulas like this using contrast as a base that has a very nice result....

Yeah - I love that sword too.
And is that a squashed dog on its back?!

They like to taunt their enemies... In the universe of confrontation the Orcs of Bran-o-Kor are not well liked by many and one of their great enemies are the Wolfen of Yilla... The Orcs like to show off their kills to intimidate their enemies, so most of the things hanging off their bodies are items from kills... my next one I'm working on has a Wolfen hide off his back and Kelt Sessair turquoise flint stones hanging around his neck... if you look back several pages at my Kelt Sessairs the have turquoise jewelry... So this next guy has had some fun run-ins with Wolfen and Kelts... others have knights of Alahan shields as shoulder pads and so on... Rackham was very detailed in how they sculpted the factions and kept them true to the story. Fun to paint!
-
2 more wrapped up... really like painting these guys... no more painting for a week or so as I won't have the time...

I think it adds a bit more realism to them... like they were a people group that morphed over time... I have no idea what would turn skin green except an accident in a lab... ANYWHO... here is "the man, the myth, the legend"...

Since Orcs in the Confrontation setting were engineered by the Syhar from Goblins genetic samples, it could be plausible for them to have green skin.
But why would the Goblins have green skin then? Ah, that's a story for another time ::)
Great work on Drac Mac Syro, the base is constructed superbly.

fabulous figures and painting as ever.
great take on the 'orcs'.

These little Dwarven crossbow guys don't get much love in the world of Confrontation, but I have always thought they have a lot of character given their "compact" nature, so I wanted to do these little sculpts some justice...

I can see why the dwarves don't get the love - they look like little plush toys or something lol But nice brush work. And that Formor champion would be a great basis for a Balrog conversion! (Did a Google search - he's around €14 and his name is "Balkron" lol).
-
Lovely paint jobs, but WTF is going on with those dwarf sculpts...”compact”....they don’t appear to have a torso, just heads and limbs lol ;)
-
Rackham's first foray into dwarves was in '97... these are from 97... they made tiny little compact figures that weren't that popular and they changed the style to the one I painted previously... I've taken a liking to these weird little creatures and will be painting most of the sculpts this year along with other stuff of course.

More Orcs!... I did a sample from 3 different blisters... there is 1 Orc Warrior, 1 Orc Bruiser, and 1 Jackal Warrior... Working on some undead Acheron centaurs next...

Appreciate it... on the confrontation forum i'm on it's the main objective of the mini. They spend most of their time making the NMM look fantastic on the swords and weapons... i'm no where near what they do... but try to do more then just metallic silver... my main objective is a good tabletop standard... these are to play with, not to sit on a plinth!

The bases are a scorched earth covered in a filthy dust... the lore of the kingdom of Acheron talks about a constant swirling black dust of rotting flesh that covers the ground and fills the air... so everywhere this army marches it follows them. Glad you like!

well, you've realised that description just about perfectly - very skilled work.

The Rackham centaurs are possibly the best centaurs ever made. I like them even more than my cherished Oldhammer ones. Great paintjobs- as usual - on these!

Thanks guys! Glad you are enjoying my labor of love... Switching gears to the Holy Griffin Empire, here we have the "Magistrate".... was nice to switch styles back to a neat and tidy gentleman's uniform...

The Magistrate is one of the few minis I still need to get.

Great additions! Misericorde is another favorite of mine. The model is simply great!
I liked the earlier predators more than the predators of blood. Even though the were more static, but thinking about it there were several sculpts in the last phase of confrontation which I liked less than their predecessors (mainly the multipart unit boxes andthe new sessairs).
Did Rackham switch sculptors maybe?

No, the sculptors remained mostly the same throughout its history... The multi-part was a push to market to people using for Confrontation Rag'narok, warhammer, and other systems where large armies were needed and people didn't want to repeat 3 or 4 sculpts over and over again... it allowed the minis to be built in many ways with weapons and arms to be angled differently much as our sprues are now... they were innovators there and at the forefront of the multi-part sprue.... I remember a LOT of warhammer Orc and Dwarven armies being built using a lot of Rackham sculpts because at the time GW had gotten pretty bland with their sculpts... They obviously remedied that, but rackham was hot on their tails for a while and the number 3 system in europe after warmachine... then... death.

I don't expect them to be lost in time... they are to my knowledge the only range that once had global popularity to not still be in production by somebody... the range still exists and keeps being bought... just by incompetent people or people who do not have the money to breath life into it once again.

I lost very much interest in CO when they tried to switch to racknarök. Te rules were teased for ages iirc and irackham wasn’t ready to face GW, yet. They had a superior miniature line and a hardcore fanbase who wanted nice, individual models...I had stopped played warhammer years ago (and the great Chronopia which I liked even more) because I didn’t have the time to collect and paint so many models. Confrontation was so attractive because with about 5-10 you could already have a good game.
The multi part boxes may have been pretty innovative at their time, but I recall them being too fiddly, rather expensive (compared to the blisters, not on a model/€-scale, mind you) and while some were really great (lions, griffins, midnor, drunes and …zombies!), others looked awkward (elves) or strange because everyone had two weapons.
But somthing else: your constant showing off the awesomeness of the old Rackham models has relit my passion for them and I searched my old collection and plan to repaint some of them to play Co Evolution.

So true...I really wish those Ukrainian guys would still sell the models they had the moulds for.

So glad to have spurred you on! They are unique figs indeed and the projects done by the italians (Conf Evo) and the French ConFederation with their version really are great playable games. I still enjoy a big battle and the Version 4 (age of rag'narok) are really pretty good using the esoteric order of gamers tweaks and additional unit cards... other then that, I use dragon rampant as a rule system for the big battles...

I did try ASoBH with some tweaks and it worked great to get the models on the table, but CoEVO keeps me thinking since I found it...it’s really a great amount of work that these guys invested to remove the (many, many) flaws the original system had.
Is there a good online source to the other two sets (confFed+EOOG)?

Baal the Conqueror! .... from the Kelts of the Sessairs clan.... and a Royal Guard from the Lions of Alahan...

Thanks everyone!... as to the comment about the number of Rackham miniatures... it's... a .... lot... I completed the entire 1250+ catalog last year... and I have doubles and tripples of probably 35-40% of them... I HOPE to have the entire catalog painted within 5 yrs.... stay tuned! I painted 468 minis last year... a lot of those were song of ice and fire and joan of arc... but a lot of Rackham too... I plan to paint around the same amount this year, but it will probably mostly be Rackham.... I have some ice and fire boxes to paint as well... but I hope to keep up the pace.

Rackham was always my favourite miniatures line and its great to see someone doing such justice to the sculptors work (far superior to anything gw has ever managed imo)
If You keep this up I might be tempted to open my box of 30-40 odd wolfen/devourers and finally get them painted
Nearly 500 painted miniatures in a year? Awesome
-
@Bloggard, I do need to get some larger army shots... i'll put that on the agenda!...
@Peithetairos, I do have a second Golborak, but he's sealed in the blister and a part of my sealed collection... so I won't part with him. Sorry! Keep watching the forums and facebook.. I've seen him pop up from time to time....
@chimpfoot.... please please pull out those Wolfen and start painting!! Happy to be inspiring people to pull these beautiful sculpts back out and slapping some paint on them...
Just a few Orc Brutes...

Jump over to wolfen rampant post for some painted puppies
Cheers r rs

Oooooooh I hadn’t seen those trees before
Lovely work mate
:)

Thanks everyone! Here is some new stuff painted in the last few days...
First is Syriak the Intrepid.... Wolfen Devout...
Then, Meliador the Celestial... Mage of Alahan... he's posed on some new terrain i've been printing from the Stormguard Kickstarter... lovely stuff...

Just bloody splendid!
-
I must concurr :) ... or even concur
that wizard could have been straight out of an Arthur Rackham illustration ... I wonder who the sculptor was - extraordinarily talented.
But it's your painting style / colour choices that really brings out that impression - beautiful.
-
The backdrop and new terrain really make the figures pop. I love the wizard - did you use washes or inks to get that hue of blue and purple?
-
Yes, he was basecoated with contrast paints, then several different washes, the blue was highlighted with a heather blue and highlighted further with a linen white... the purple was highlighted with a sky grey and linen white in areas...
Here we have one of my favorite sculpts from the Dwarves of Tir-na-bor... Dwarven Light Artillery... Yes, the front guy must be certainly deaf...

:o You are an absolute machine. Minis, terrain, everything is awesome and you're churning through them.
Listen, and understand! That Terminator gibby64 is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead every Confrontation mini is painted!

Cadwe Minotaur Maid.... I feel a woman with a loaded crossbow and a cleaver has sort of the psycho combo a woman would go for after finding out their husband was cheating!....

Iconic mini. Nice one, good pj and some excellent basing.
-
Ah, you're getting into the Cadwallon range! 8)
They're my main Confrontation collection, after Mid Nor, and I just love the City Guard. I've enlisted this Minotaur in the militia too; she's one of the two big guys (the other one being the elephant trophy wearing ogre).
I love the way you managed to paint the flower embroidery on her fanny pack too btw! :D

Appreciate it! the guard are some of my favorite... and I LOVE the crossbow men as well... I look forward to getting to all of them and then to building a version of the Cadwallon city scenery.

Looks great! I always struggle with where to put the moss on ruins. You did a great job, it looks natural.
-
Cracking work.
-
those minotours ... what sculpts - and you've done a lovely job painting them.
terrain is great too ... 3D printers, eh? :) one day, perhaps ...
-
Fantastic.
I love the clean paint jobs and terrain.

Some cracking good photos as Von Lucky says. I really like the Alahan sculpts and the colors you have chosen work well.

Thanks as always guys...
Here we have the Incubus of the Despot from the Dwarves of Mid-Nor... I painted him for an online competition of Rackham only sculpts... had a lot of fun with him.

Lovely!

YESS!
My favourite Confrontation faction, finally 8)
You did a stellar job on him! :-*
I see you stayed away from Rackham's studio look of multi-hued skin tones. I'm of two minds on that myself; I absolutely adore those paintjobs, but on the other hand, I sometimes find it very hard to discern what's going on, especially with all the abundant details on the miniatures.
The NMM has been executed very well and base is pretty epic. Lovely job, sir!
-
That shit's crazy man :)
-
Id-Nor! Oh how I wish I had bought more of them when they were crazily cheap in the times Rackham went bankrupt. Totally awesome models! And, of course, a brilliant paintjob on that one!
-
Mid-Nor are one of my favorite factions... mostly for the imagination it took to dream them up... the court of the abyss is such an amazing original work of art...
Here we have Valdenar, Baron of Doriman, Commander of the Royal Guard of the Lions of Alahan....

Ye gods The industry. Even lockdown still can't find the time! :)

Well given the current environment, I've been very productive actually.. just not as good at posting in here.... Here is my finished box set of Kaiber Guards for my Lions of Alahan... They were an absolute joy to paint. Hope everyone is staying well and SAFE!

Sorry for not keeping this updated... I've been still working non stop... probably another 100 rackham miniatures finished since the last post... I'll try to sprinkle them in here to show you fine gents...
-
oh great - you're back.
and what a figure and painting with which to make your return :-*
Looking forward to seeing the rest (or some at least) of those 100 figures. Wonderful stuff.
-
All your figures and terrain pieces look great! However, I am waiting to see more Mid-Nor. I own few of the twisted dwarves but do not have an idea how to paint them.
-
Sophet Drahas (was that his name?) looks great. Nice glow effect, great work on the back of the throne and that looming reaper.
-
Thanks guys! yes, i'm back... appreciate the feedback on the "King of Ashes" I look forward to getting him on the table in a week for a nice game of Dragon Rampant!.... Here is a Goblin Psychomutant from the Goblins of No-Dan-Kar that I finished over the summer... along with some scenery i created with Rackham scenery elements... I'll get some shots of the scenery up next.

Here are the scenery elements using Rackham original scenery.... everything shown is original rackham metal scenery bits, except for the 3d printed ruins... but the Rat and gargoyle figure are metal bits pinned and glued to the top from Rackham.... fun scatter terrain...

Yeah, the Rackham terrain pieces were great.
While there were issues with their prepainted plastics, the thing in the starter box was a really cool piece.
-
Yes, the prepainted stuff was a mixed bag, though I'll say that the griffin and lion knights are some of the best prepainted stuff to have ever been made... some of the other line did not get the same attention to detail due to having to switch facilities in China.... anywho
Here is Syd de Kaiber of the Cynwall Elves... a legendary hero in Aarklash....

Great new additions to your project.
I have the Syd De Kaiber miniature and the book.Still not read the book or made the figure up though.
Love the Dwarven War Golem.
-
just wonderful. Superb painting and terrain work.
can only repeat that I wish the rackham stuff was 'properly' available again at 'normal' prices, and lament that I missed it all when it was :'(

If you have the book I recommend reading it! It's an amazing recap of one of the most epic battles in Aarklash.. it's a quick, fun read... i need to read it again.

I'm with you. Sadly it is deader then dead... i think brands are given a few chances to be resurrected... this one has certainly had its chances, but sadly mostly with incapable persons...
-
Some great pj's over there. Really like the color transitions you did on the larger pieces, very impressive.
And yeah, too bad the KS went south, hope the range will be picked up by a more capable and reliable party...
-
What better then to resurrect this topic with a Darkness Elemental...
-
The best kind of necromancy!

superb.
