Some more stuff using foundry paints

A couple more that I finished off recently...

Beastman and night horror devil

Marauder chaos dwarf and Sam Phox - be careful with those or you might poke your eyes out...

Sam Phox harkens back to an era when Citadel was quite happy producing minis that, by today's standards, are highly questionable. The pygmy figures they produced would be the hight of that and I'm cleaning some of those up to paint. The naked women in the fantasy specials series are not quite right either - fun to collect (I got a couple reasonably cheap earlier this year) but not something I'll expose the kids to for some time

Using Foundry paints

I haven't posted pics of anything for a while - I have been painting though and that includes working with some paints I purchased from Foundry. I'll post up the figs I managed to finish off since my last post over the coming days. Anyway here are the first few:

Undead rider and chaos centaur

A couple of thugs

The flesh is foundry whilst the rest is citadel. I was so impressed with the Foundry stuff I went and ordered a heap more from them to replace some of my old citadel stuff (reds, greys, greens, black and blues with buff and palamino thrown in for good measure). I won't totally abandon the washes though as they still work well - the undead riders cloak is a combination of foundry paints and citadel black wash. 

May the fourth be with you

Well I just had to post some pics of some West End Games Star Wars figures for International Star Wars day - even if I painted these up a decade ago (or thereabouts). And to add to things it is my birthday today (41 today) so I can do what I like!

Jes Goodwin Ogre and Wardancer

I completed a couple of Jes Goodwin figures last week and finally got around to taking pics of them. The ogre would have to be the most annoying figure I've painted for some time as it is strangely positioned and has a heap of dead areas on it - namely the chest which is badly defined. The wardancer on the other hand was a pleasure to paint as it is a lovely sculpted figure. Indeed all of the wardancer figs I have painted to date have been fun to paint. Up there with the Talisman figures IMHO. Anyway here they are:

Hey were did my right arm go?

The cloak is the best thing about this figure...

I'm back...

Well I've finally gotten back to Oz after a lovely (although tiring) 4 week holiday in the UK and Paris (well Paris Disney with one day at the Louvre). No pics of newly painted stuff yet although I should have some new minis done by the middle of the coming week as I'm already back in the painting groove. I do have a snapshot of all the stuff I bought at Foundry when I dropped in to their store with the wife and kids. Needless to say I've got a lot of stuff to clean and paint:

Basically this will take me years...For starters I've got the Medieval Knights, Blandford Warriors and Baggage pieces (carts, horses and attendants). If I can clean and paint those within 6 months I'll be rapped. The pikemen and vikings are longer term projects whilst the animals are mostly for the kids to paint up at the suggestion of my good wife (with some help from their old man of course!).

 

A belated post - my latest work

I managed to take a few quick shots of some figures I finished off a week and a half back just before I headed off on holidays to the UK. Anyway here they are:

BB snotling and wardancer

Last two chaos dwarf crossbows

I'll post some pics of some of the figs I purchased from Wargames Foundry late last week in a couple of days. Needless to say I spent a fair bit of dough - encouraged by the wife no less!

Plague cart and ors

Well I finally managed to finish off the plague cart. I'm pretty happy with the result considering the figure isn't a great sculpt. I also managed to finish off a few other figures that fall into various projects I have going to keep me amused.

The (in)famous plague cart

Albino space slann

Dungeonbowl dwarf

Bretonnian Knight and a couple of wardancers
