@majorsmith: Well, I have to get stuff done quickly while I got the time to do my own minis.
Thanks muchly for the comment.
Heyhey, happy new year. These were finished last night already, but my camera's batteries were empty and I had to recharge over night.

As mentioned above, these aren't really very showy. Basically just so I got baddies for fantasy gaming as stand-ins for Orcs.
Hope you like them!

Thanks.
Well, there was the shields to do, basing, lots of detail stuff, and so on. The famous last 20% of the job which take up most of the time.

Hehey, here's two more dudes I just did because I had them at hand. This whole 'painting just so the things are painted, not necessarily for looking nice"-thing is pretty liberating.
Hope you like them.

Okay, in the end I now also added some swiftly-made flags:

...and now that's enough of that!
Hope you like them!

Wow, they look fantastic.
I'd not heard of the game before. If your collection of beastmen is anything to go by, I like the scale of the warband. I love fantasy skirmish games but find that skirmish warbands are often way to small. 5-9 models is seems to be common and whilst quick to paint, doesn't really feel like a warband on the road, seeking their glory or riches.

@sundayhero: Thanks very much!
@Sunjester: Cheers.
@Mallo: Thanks very much for the comment! Sellswords&Spellslingers works a bit differently. My posts have probably been misleading.
It's a fully cooperative fantasy game in which each player plays one to three characters. Each game represents a quest or the blow-off fight to a quest and it's not uncommon for the characters to fight quite a lot of baddies. So I realized I got to get some baddies done (unless the characters will only fight Dark Elves or Saxons
).
I posted a Sellswords and Spellslingers battle reports here which will probably give you a better picture of how the game works:
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=115012.msg1439501
. On Halloween the past year we also had a big themed game.
https://www.tabletopstories.net/language/en/2019/11/sellswords-and-spellslingers-halloween-special/
.
As for games which might fit the bill of what you got in mind - have you tried Dragon Rampant? That works reasonably well. Or of course Saga:Age of Magic. Many people enjoy that one. I haven't tried it yet (since I got turned off by it from playing 2 or three games in 2013 and not really being convinced by it as a historical or wargame.
).

One more thing you need to play Sellswords and Spellslingers is loot markers. Slain enemies drop one of these each for the heroes to pick up.
I made 22 such markers now, because usually quite a few of these are lying around (as long as the players are wise and don't waste a lot of time looting!).

Okay, since I got the Beastmen, I also got this:
MAYBE it'll be used on Friday already. Depending on the scenario we play.

Looking good. I've never heard of Sellswords & Spellslingers so I might have to have a look at it.

@AKULA: Thanks very much.
Much appreciated.
@Melnibonean: I've been planning to write up a proper review of it for months, but it kept on getting posponed.
It's a hoot though. Fully cooperative heroic fantasy things. Very much a 'toolkit', but you can do everything with it. AND it's good fun!
