Why, thank you. The big stuff needs a wee bitty scrub or grass on the bases just to finish off and break up the sandy colour.

I must admit, I'm quite pleased with the triceratops. Not bad for £3.50, is he? You gotta love toyshops.  :lol:


Hey Squirrel, those are some colourful cowpokes. Looking good mate.  :)

I think made/converted/sculpted could be included here without any worries.

But for the past week or so I have been busy with my club. Unfortunately due to the nature of the club, there is a lot more work involved with each individual member than with the Prof's or Hammers'.
 

What do you say, Prof? Should we be insulted by this claim? ;-)

 I'm quietly working away in the background, both on the modelling itself and the 'fluff', as I believe one calls it.


This is interesting. My process sort of strarts with the fluff and I chose the colours, poses and basing from what I come up with.

No insult intended, old Bean. It's just that the club itself is a different kind of club. Each 'member' consists of a person and something else. And the 'something else' isn't something that can be knocked off in a day (at least not with my modelling skills and short attention span).

Also, each entry has a second little 'in action' scene (or will have), and they require more actors, and sometimes a different model representing the club member to the original main club picture.

I'm beginning to think it's all a little ambitious. I'm bound to get tired of it before I have anything to show...

sounds complicated  :mrgreen: but I would like to see that, I'm sure I'll love it.

how matakishi once said "Take heart, work hard, have faith!"

btw, in the meantime  I have an idea for my second club and it will be something complicated too. Or rather lots of work. Anyway, it's just an idea at the moment.

As soon as we will have a new club, I'll open a new Club's board  8)

Bit late to the show (and pictures still not very good), but here goes. February, as the month before it, saw more work on my Jotunheim fantasy norse.
Front row: Shadowforge valkyries
Second row: Foundry bearmen
Third row: Foundry big guy and Old Glory Ice Trolls (they do paint up well)
Also, a converted and repainted Tundra Scout on mammoth from the D&D prepaints (should have fixed the wonky tusks too).




Last picture for relative scale:

Norse! This is what me wants to see  :)  A passion I'll never lose. Those trolls work really great, WK. Hope, we'll see more one day?
