Great evocative paint work! I love the subtle colour-coding of the warbands too.

Thanks for the feedback folks.

Yep, these are great - who's the big monk guy with the beard?

EDIT: Found him - thought he looked like Tre's work, and I was right! (Friar Stone, Reaper, Tre Manor)

Gotta love Tre's sculpts, sooo much character to them.

Some seriously nice paintjobs. Also like the terrain. Where did you get those pillars from? Or how did you make them?
Keep it coming, at whatever speed it may be. :D

How did you make the columns?

They're made out of wine corks, cut in half then pinned together. They are then glued on to washers and then finally a lipped base.

Awesome thread! Always love your work? Howve you done the labyrinth?

Thanks Dijit. There is a thread on the workbench board about the labyrinth, but as is the case with so much other stuff, Photofuckit killed it. The walls are cut from expanded foam insulation sheets, then carved and textured. I cut recesses into the bottom of them and stuck 2 or 3 washers in each wall section to give them some weight.

Very effective recipe for pillars!

Gotta resurrect this thread so we can see them again. Great painting and a fantastic choice of figures for your warbands. My personal fave is the female cleric (less is more), but they are all equally well done.

Hi.

Finally got around to finishing some more fantasy scenery.

Gw ruins of Osgiliath supplemented with some bits made from foam. Hope you likee :)




A question. What do people do to protect their painted terrain? Do you varnish it? If so wih what?

Be prepared to touch it up every now and again although considering it's usually me who damages my own terrain it's not a massive problem  lol

Posting up what i painted over the summer.

First, Hasselhoff Not Disney ripoffs, lovely sculpts, as to be expected from KW.



This one is my fave, Mërida.



Bought them on the pretence of them being for my daughters, but I think we all know that they're never gonna get to play with Daddy's dollies. lol

This one was a Reaper promo, she's a great sculpt bar the titty armour, for which I can see no logical explanation other than pure titillation. I'll get my coat... To me, she's become little Red Riding hood, the 'little' being irony, as she towers over the hasselfree figs. Wolf to follow.



Next up, these GW skellies from their Warhammer Quest line. You can say what you like about GW, but the way these figs are engineered to fit together off the sprue is a thing of beauty. To my mind, there is still nobody making better platic sprue based kits, although there are many who can give them a run for their money on single character figs. (W Artel, I'm thinking of you!)





And finally, some dungeon vermin from Reaper Bones, spiders and rats.
