The Wurmspat Warband

I have developed a deep, unflattering love for Warhammer Underworlds. It started about a year ago, but I denied my love and managed to fight it off. Then I met Fecula Flyblown and her boys, and I was lost for good:

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Nurgle stuff in Warhammer, but I really don’t want to paint a whole army of rotty stompers. But three figs? Sounds like a plan!

So many folds and rips… and that’s just the skin!

Neon yellow makes for some great pustules!

Ghulgoch the Butcher? Must be a blast on casual Friday.

These figs just beg for the Typhus Corrosion!

Ghulgoch’s skin started green and worked up to regular flesh tones, with purple shading for bruises.

Sepsimus has a ton of armor, which was fun to tarnish up.

All in all, the Wurmspat Warband was a lot of fun to paint, and might even make a great foundation for a diorama! Next up: an Ogre Huntsman!

Marvel Crisis Protocol, Part One

We got our demo copy of Marvel Crisis Protocol at Shiv Games Games today, and I wasted no time at all diving in to the box. It’s a pretty impressive affair, with ten Marvel characters, rules, tokens, and terrain crammed into the box;

I’ll have more on the minis after I get them painted, but I can honestly say I am really happy with the look and quality of the miniatures. The hard plastic looks great, and they are pretty easy to put together with the included instructions.

I would say the quality of the sculpts is a bit higher than Fantasy Flight Games’ Star Wars: Legion, but not quite as crisp as Wyrd’s Malifaux line. You also don’t need an engineering degree to put them together, so take that, Malifaux!

The minis took about three hours to Assemble (pun intended), and they look fantastic after a quick zenithal priming session!

I’ll be tackling the paint jobs on these beautiful figs in the next installment!

Ash Commission

Jackson hired me to paint up this awesome Ash mini from Hasslefree Miniatures, a pretty neat indie company out of the UK. It’s a great little resin fig, with options for the chainsaw hand, a hand with an ax, and a samurai sword if that fits your mood. Best of all, they got Bruce Campbell’s chin perfect…

Pan Oceana Shock Force Commission, Part Three

I’m really excited about these drones, this is the first time I’ve been comfortable enough with my airbrush to do the majority of the figures with it. Practice really does pay off, and the gradual shading makes me very happy!

Tohaa Commission Part One

Matt hired me to paint his Tohaa army for infinity, and I’m really enjoying the outcome! I’m working with a stark black and white outline, with bright green and purple as accents. I’m also looking for ways to pull out any skeletal elements in the army.

The Great Yu-Jing Project, Part Four

With less than a month left on the clock I can proudly claim to be 95% done with this project. It’s been a lot of fun and a huge learning experience for me! Enjoy the pretty pictures!
