horrid frostgrave

[Plus Four]

Just caught up with your blog and I have to say I really like what you've doing!

Looking forward to seeing how your terrain develops - the domed ruin is a great start.

That's a lovely piece of terrain - bravo!

Time to dust off my old thread.  I prefer to keep it all in one big clump than spraying my projects all over the place.  I haven't posted on Frostgrave in months but I've actually been getting things done.  Things are in the works to play locally starting at the end of January so I've been scrambling to paint up randoms and scenario objectives.  I guess I have to finish my warband too but there is still plenty of time.

I got sidetracked by a Christmas painting deadline.  My nieces started playing Dungeons and Dragons this year so I painted up some representations of their characters.  I played RPGs and started painting models before I got into wargaming so maybe these figures will eventually end up in the frozen city if they become interested.  I'll be delivering these tomorrow.  I'll try and get some pics up of stuff I've been putting together soon.

good paintjob on the miniatures, especially the jewel! what brand are they?

[horridperson]

The thief is a Reaper and the mage is Dark Sword.

Stunningly beautiful paint job on them.

Got a really sweet deal on a giant model when the retailer did a sale.  Was able to get back to him following the Christmas deadline so now wizards should expect big trouble, big rocks and big mullets in Felstadt.

Very nice paintjobs, especially your fleshwork is popping out as classy!

Cool!  I really like the face on that!

[CthulhuPunk]

Aye, fantastic character to the face! Brilliant

Have some adds for the thread.  Some pieces for scenarios, wandering monster and mercs.  Now I better get working on my warband.

Very nice work - bravo! My favourite is the gargoyle statue - menacing but with loads of character.

@jp1885  He is actually one of my favorites too.  He's one of the old 80s Ral Partha AD&D models.  I have enough statues that I was thinking about switching him out of the scenario role and giving him a frozen fountain of his own to preside over.  A few years back someone on a Mordheim forum had the same model, sculpted him a little cock and had him filling the fountain with it.  I just like the idea of flash freezing/ capturing the poor little guy in mid stream because it might make for a characterful vignette.

Now that's something I never expected to read when I got up this morning!

Very nice work - the statues and the genie are my favs, I think.
