Thanks all!

Just Ozrim's engineers, the elves, the villagers and a ton of orcs to go...  o_o

Fnar fnar fnar!  lol Good thing you're fast and steady with the brush mate!

On a side note, we played the first Stillburg scenario yesterday and it was a complete success! =D In short, the heroes + militia managed to save young Billy Crabcock from death but lost Raab the barbarian and Phoncible Boismann (the crooked mayor - good riddance!) in the process. They decided discretion was the better part of valour and opted for retreat. =) Full battle report in my Stillburg thread at a later date. Now, bed-time!

Cheers Dave!

Got a bit more done although the remaining lead pile still weighs heavily!

Ferndale Snart now has all his patients for his field hospital in Orc's Drift - I even sculpted (if that is the word for my rudimentary efforts!) some stretchers for them - should the druid persuade anyone to assist him in the evacuation...

Again I've written a load of background for these poor unfortunates on the blog if you like that kind of thing -

http://teasgettingcold.blogspot.com/2010/07/patients-is-virtue.html

and without further ado - pics!

These could probably do with a wash with a good bit of carbolic!



Sir Malahed - diagnosis - troll induced concussion and coma -



Lars Brett - diagnosis - serious allergy to scimitars -



Dumbledern - diagnosis - shaman related somnolence

 

Laceras - diagnosis - imbalance of humours as a result of cleft chest -



and the whole bunch of malingerers together!

Nice stuff Steve! The stretchers are not only good, they're good enough! =) Cool to see so many casualty minis painted up. Especially like the mage.

Thanks fellas - that last shot was also a bugger to get the angle right so you could see everyone and have them in focus! The flashing battery warning light didn't help matters either!

The mage is a nice fig - not convinced he, or Lars Brett, are citadel but they're good!  :D Glad no-one commented on his robe being so stiff it holds its own weight over the side of the stretcher - or am I being a bit perfectionist there?  ::)

I might be completely off my rockers here but looking closely I think I used to own that mage. Sure enough, found him on Prince August's site: http://www.princeaugust.ie/ch/ch24b.jpg

Gotta rummage through the storage at my parents' house. Might still have the standing version. =)

That particular allergy seems to have an unusually high mortality rate... lol

Great stuff as usual!
