Koyote in Mordheim (And some WHQ)

[Cyrus the Great]

That's a wonderful bear!

And the Empire Hero wiping the dripping blood off his sword is a little work-of-art.

I finally got around to putting some paint on the chests. 



And, since one of this month's campaign scenarios is Cry of the Banshee...

[von Lucky]

Shiny and scary!

[Bravo Six]

Lovely brushwork Koyote. 

Who makes the banshee?

Lovely brushwork Koyote. 

Who makes the banshee?

The Banshee is from the Of Gods and Mortals line sold by North Star Military Figures.

Thanks Koyote.

In addition to my other umpteen-zillion hobby projects, I really want to create a dwarf warband for a skirmish game.  If not for Mordheim, then for Frostgrave, or possibly Rangers of Shadows Deep.  Regardless of the game system, I want it to include a human wizard and a halfling thief.  Yes.  I know.  Very unoriginal.  But the heart wants what the heart wants.

The halfling is Stonehave Miniatures' Halfling Apprentice.  The wizard was made from the GW Battlemage kit.  I shamelessly stole the idea for the conversion from someone else on the interwebs.  The pipes come from the old GW Dwarf Thunderers/Quarellers kit.

Looking good!

chests and banshee have come out a treat.

Poor brave Natasha died during my last game.  She was torn apart by Witch Hunters' hounds. 

To make maters worse, three of my heroes went out-of-action and I rolled abysmally low with my 2 exploration dice, so I ended up with only one treasure (wyrdstone). I didn't have enough gc to pay the upkeep for my my hired swords and hire a new Youth, so I sold my rabbits foot, a lantern, and both of my Streltsis' bows (they never hit anything anyway).  This gave me enough gold to keep both hired swords and hire a new Youth, Gregor.

My replacement Youth is an actual Kislev Youth model from the long OOP Mordheim Kislev warband set.  The Kislev weapon sprue didn't give me what I wanted, so I equipped him with a hammer from the Frostgrave Barbarian plastic set and a mace that I cobbled together from a bit from a GW Bretonnian men-at-arms kit.

The dwarf is another OOP GW model.  I had at one time planned to incorporate the model into my Kislev warband as a hire sword, but I don't think this will happen this time around.  The model has been primered and sitting on my painting table for ages.  I got tired of it starring at me with those tiny, judgmental eyes, so I slapped some paint on the little bugger and moved it to my display case. Now I have room on my painting table for another unpainted model that I can neglect.

Nice brush work on your recent additions, but that banshee is a real treat!

[Bloggard]

nice to hear how your 'band is faring.

What began as me painting a few models to serve as unusual antagonists for a Mordheim campaign's final game ended up as full blown Carnival of Chaos warband.

You'll never see a brighter or cleaner cult of Nurgle worshipers.


Carnival Master & (counts-as) Nurglings




Brutes




Plaguebearer & Tainted Ones




Brethren




WIP Plague Cart




The first Plaguebearer that I painted turned out pretty good.  It is much more in line with what one thinks of when one imagines a daemon of Nurgle, but it just didn't fit in with the rest of the warband.  It's too dark and dirty, so the Carnival Master summoned one a bit less far gone and then sent it to the carnival's make-up artist for a makeover.

oh my goodness ... superlative.
