Westeros (not again!) [Boltons done]

[sukhe_bator]

Now he looks suitably colder! Take it from someone who knows - medieval footwear was not that great at keeping out the wet cold...

[Captain Blood]

The snow on his clothing looks great.
Very brave to risk doing that to a figure you've just painted - but I'd say it works a treat.

[sukhe_bator]

I agree with the good Captain. It takes a bit of nerve but it has really paid off.
You don't want to overdo it though http://blogs-images.forbes.com/insertcoin/files/2015/06/snow1-e1434299165356-1940x1093.jpg 
My flag making method involves crumpling the finished flag up closely before teasing it out. I find next to drybrushing that is an equally cringeworthy moment...

Thanks guys! Much appreciated. The snow is actually a 'texture paste' that I got from my local art store- I believe it is marble dust and some kind of paint. It is similar to most textured paints for modelling, but a much finer grit. So drybrushing that on was pretty easy, and it dries slightly translucent, so it gives a good effect.

Now, the long slow wait for his future comrades to get here from Wayland...

[MattW]

So, a month after I paid for them, my minis are finally shipped from Wayland Games. In another couple of weeks, I should have them and this project can proceed.

I'm planning on two 36 point armies for dragon rampant, one an alliance of savage Boltons and treacherous Freys; and the other an alliance of Baratheons, Mormonts, and Manderleys.

I like this match up.  May the Freys and Boltons get the drubbing they so richly deserve!

Well, it has been quite a while. Nothing too exciting, but my Bolton retinue is beginning to take shape:

Looking good so far!

[MattW]

Cheers mate. Got them all (and a few others) primed back tonight. I'd post a pic but it's probably not necessary...

First time using an airbrush, and I have to say that I'm a convert. So much easier than spray cans!

[Captain Blood]

Looking forward to seeing them done

A quick WIP update:

[Hupp n at em]

Really like the color on those Boltons, well done! 

[MattW]

Another WiP:



At the moment, I'm done with these fellas. They will be getting pavise shields, but that has to wait until I work out how I plan to do sigils...

[Captain Blood]

Nice
