@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:

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!

) battle reports of mine here:
