Made some progress with the evil minions of Shadow Deep this week, batch painting some Plague Monks.

Have 8 more to do, 4 with staffs as minor sorcerers, 3 as sergeants and 1 as a shaman.

Still working through the terrain and bestiary for Rangers, onto the Infected Trees now.

Rather than cobwebbed trees and cocoons I've made 10 spider holes for the burrowing spiders I've painted. Bit of a cheat but made things easier.

Will paint a couple of heroes and/or civilians next.

Nice idea having spider holed. Love the colours on the crawlers.

Edit:
Just came back in to look at the thread and noticed my comment sounded down right arrogant.  It is nice to see other people solving the problem of the infested trees the same way I did.

The Burrows and Badgers miniatures flatter my painting skills, the sculptor is also an accomplished painter and he definitely knows what painters need when he's making these figures.

The centipedes and the spider holes are genius!

I like to do stuff on the cheap where possible.

Thank you. The spiders look a bit more colourful on the pictures, especially when viewed on mobile phone.

Didn't sound arrogant to me at all so no worries on that score.

I was intrigued though so trawled through your blog to find them; yours are much more detailed and realistic than mine.

Was a worthwhile visit in many way, your terrain building is amazing.

I may well be copying some of your stuff in the near future.

This little project keeps ticking along at a very slow pace.

Two more of my retinue completed ready to fight the Shadow Deep (once it's all built and painted); Sir Harold Harefoot, Knight, and Fergus O'Connor, Mole Tracker.

I have to say having been someone who's put many an hour into ROSD I really like this concept

I'd also been thinking that the B&B minis would be good for ROSD. Great job on your minis and terrain creations.

Thanks chaps.

After nearly 2 months with no painting I decided to get this project back up and running, current plan is to have everything done for the first 10 scenarios by the end of the year.

So I have hacked the legs off my Irregular Miniatures Cave Bugs; the single ones are to be swamp maggots with swamp zombie stats, the swarm is to have barrow worm stats.

Also completed Jack Maclary, a terrier of the Town Guard.

I still have rubbish photo skills, I'm afraid.
