'Tis but a scratch!
A 3d printed figure from who knows which manufacturer, I got it as a gift :)


Pretty sure that is the Studio Miniatures sculpt of the Black knight.  Very well done, I might add.

Thank you!
It is a nice figure, but it comes in one piece so that red boar on the chest is hard to paint.

Knowing the style of Brother Vinni, I am sure that they sculpted this figure after the very persuasive priest from Age of Empires 2. But even if it is just a random cleric, I painted him for ,,team Blue priest" colours I used a lot :)

Two weird undead from Reaper- maybe some AD&D stuff,  I just call them combi-zombie, they will be part of a KoW Revenant unit made of similar weird, uncategorized undead.

Thank you! The idea of weird undead unit came from the Black Crab Miniatures undead kickstarter, I am now waiting for those figures to arrive.

Once upon a time I bought a skaven collection from a guy here. He clearly wanted to grab some extra cash from a lucky ebay find, but it was still well worth it, I got loads of infantry and a set of great conversions: some kinda Skaven dog unit made from various bitz (I Identified Scibor Chaos snails, a Cold One, and, ofc, lots of Skaven bitz and green stuff). There were 10 of them, I kept 7 (two I will use as characters, one was basically just a giant spider with an Epic Skaven, I cut the little Skaven and will use that one as simple giant spider), and repainted them with my colour scheme.





As I mentioned, there are only 7 of them, so I buffed up the unit with 3 Chaos hounds. 2 of these are very old (among the first WH minis in the family- bought by my brother back when these were the current edition), with an old paintjob; one is a more recent purchase, but came without a tail which I sculpted for it.


This way the unit is playable with 10 figures: no idea yet what will I use it in KoW as, they shall have some Chaos hound-equivalent unit I am sure, worst case simple Cavalry. But the Chaos hounds are a temporary solution, I will make a proper rat hound unit (I also have some conversion/sculpting ideas...) and the Chaos hounds also deserve their own unit, I used them as unit fillers for too long (they served among the zombie hordes before).

Woolooloo.
Wood please
 lol

Preist looks great, hope he can convert some units for you.

Those chaos spawn snail shell rats look horrible! Just perfect  :D lol
What a great unit of unsettling minis.
I feel sorry for the leggy ones, they will have to walk to slow to keep unit rank with the sluggy ones  lol

Thank you, guys!

Yeah, there is even a 10 hour track on youtube with his motivational speech, I was really laughing about comments like "At ayoyoyo I still had doubts, but by wololo I was fully convinced" :)

Oh, no, being a leggy one in this unit is the best thing ever, you can take your time and there is always someone to blame for being late.

Oh wow that's so funny, might need to look it up just to check the comments thread haha.

Furious the monkey boy was so good as well  lol

Oh perfect, glad the leggy ones aren't going to face the punishment of khorne then for being a tad late to the blood supper. But they may still miss some of the Hors D'oeuvres.

Here, but you can read the comments only after you watched the video:


Roses are red
Violets are blue
Wololo
Violets are now red

We used the laser trooper.... good old times.

You made me think about converting some more to be able to make a leggy and a slow unit...
