Mean streets of Vienna circa Anno Domini 1666

[abu iskander]

I present the bulk of the figures produced for the game AD 1666. Having backed the Kickstarter years ago, I finally had the motivation to paint them up. Experimented with some zenithal priming and quick paints, which a big departure from my usual technique. That said, I feel like it worked well for these sculpts. Cheers!

Intrepid Poles lead by a drunk mastermind.



A sort of Viennese Illuminati crew.



Three Musketeers posse.



Emissaries of the High Porte.



Blood Moon expansion - Hungarian characters, werewolf and villagers.



Denizens of darkest Vienna.



The Night Watch.



Thugs and miscreants. 



Monster hunters and mercenaries. (Got a few of these left to do)



Magicians and monsters.

If I may ask, what exactly is quick paint. I have heard reference to this a few times but don't know what it is.

[Mad Lord Snapcase]

Lovely painting.

Thank you all. It’s been a very enjoyable ‘side project’. If the gameplay is good enough it may even motivate me to paint some Dwarven Forge city/village and similar type stuff in the lead pile to replace the game boards and play on a 3D tabletop.

Inky- by quick paint I’m referring to Contrast Paint or something like it. They basically function like a glaze, so are somewhat-to-very transparent. Army Painter Speedpaints account for most of what I painted here, with some colors, like flesh and white tones having been painted with conventional hobby paints.

Great looking figures, and the paint jobs work really well on them.

[Sunjester]

Wonderful figures and great brushwork.

[Friends of General Haig]

Superbly done, Abu 👍.

Wonderful paint work on those - inspirational stuff as already mentioned.

I have a number of these models in my ‘pile of opportunity’ to be used as character models etc. for my TYW armies.  They are lovely sculpts. 

I may have to pick up more of them after seeing your finished work

Great painting on really characterful sculpts.  Love it!

Very nice painting. I've been tempted by the French musketeer figures in the past, but have not yet succumbed.

Thanks all. Gaming it for the first time this weekend - hopefully it’s as fun to play as it has been to paint! Some bonus characters for the Saturday debut.
