Thanks guys

@Mahwell skel - yep, I was trying to figure out how to make ruins, the remembered I had a bunch of cork tiles I picked up for like $5. So far I have used two tiles to make enough terrain for a 2x2 board. It paints up beautifully and because it has some flex, is very hardy.

@polkovnik - thanks! I'm really happy with it. I don't have an exact recipe but basically it uses a mix of water effects (the one part stuff), pva/craft glue and snow flock, mixed into a paste and smeared around. I've started adding a drop or two of white paint too, which helps the snow pop a bit more and not go too translucent/slushy.

@Awesomeshotdude - cheers mate

The barrow is inspired by a piece of skyrim concept art I found.

Some skeletons I painted last night. Nothing fancy, they are super rushed. Just drybrushing and washes mostly, but they only took an hour or two, so they'll do.

Hi. I like this greenish color on the shields, is it GW Nihilakh Oxide or something else?

Lovely skellies especially the eyes.thanks for sharing

Thanks guys, glad you like them.

@armyofmites - yep, nihlahk oxide. I was skeptical at first because verdigris is pretty easy to paint normally, but it makes it easy to just splash around for tabletop standard models.

Anyway, I finally had a real bolt of inspiration for a warband to play. Will have some proper fluff coming, but for now, this infantry is the first member of the a warband made up of... the last remnant of old Felstad. Led by a chronomancer

Not my finest painting, can't get the ornate armour to look good. Tried metallic, nope, so now nmm... which I suck at. But oh well, he'll do.

Very nice, looks lovely with that head and scabbard! Curious about your fluff, sounds intriguing...

Excellent looking skellies too, by the way!

Great stuff! Really like the verdigris on the skeletons!

Thanks guys

@Joe5mc - the head (and shoulder plate) is from the Mantic revenant set - I've always really liked the style of armour they wear, and since I'm using Mantic models for most of my undead Felstadians, it makes sense to keep the armour consistent for my chronomancer.

Anyway, little more progress, this time a witch. Quite pleased with how she turned out, I kept the colours fairly simple, using the many layers of clothing to create a sort of reverse fade effect.
Side note - most of the women I paint end up with jade lips and eye shadow. It's both because I like the colour and, from an aesthetics view, it is highly constrasting to the pale skin tones, which helps define the face clearly. But mostly I just like the colour.

Looking good Magos - I particularly like the Skeletons...

Great additions. Thanks for sharing

commissarmoody · « **Reply #28 on:** October 02, 2015, 07:13:33 AM »

She looks great, who makes her?

Magos Kasen · « **Reply #29 on:** October 02, 2015, 10:17:37 AM »

Thanks, the witch is from Reaper, their Pathfinder range.
