Warcrow: Shadows of the Yew

These are the elves that sold me on Warcrow. Prior to seeing these, I was curious, but ultimately decided there wasn’t anything that I really burned inside to paint. Then I saw this unit of ambushing assassins, and that was the end of that.

I thought I would be really clever and put them in an autumnal camo scheme, but it turns out a lot of people are really clever as well. That’s fine, these are mine and I love them!

The second ambusher is my favorite model in the line, it’s just so damned majestic and mysterious!

Once again I used a purple/maroon underpainting pass to unify all of the main colors. It’s really obvious in stark lighting and zoomed in, but on the table they pop like crazy.

I’m working on a couple of demons and knights from this range of minis, I hope to have them up soon! Thanks for stopping by!

Konflikt ’47: Axis and US Command

I have to confess an undying love of Weird War X settings, throw some werewolves into the trenches and I’m pretty much hooked. So, surprise to no one anywhere who knows me, I feel in love with Konflikt ’47.

This game is screaming for kitbashing, so the Fireflies, Stahltruppen, and mechs from the starter set might be the only official K47 minis I end up using. Plus, I want a sneering vampire leader for the Axis troops, and that figure does not exist… yet.

The Axis leader is in heavy armor and packing quite a sneer. I painted him up in an urban camo scheme, and will follow that up with his honor guard and additional Stahltruppen units.

For the US commander, I painted him up with the standard color scheme I was planning on using for the rest of the fireflies. These guys are fun, but he’ll probably be the only one I put out with a tactical rock.

What’s next? Axis zombies, some rank and file troops, and more enhanced US troopers. I’ll be using Isaiah Bradley as the leader of the enhanced, because why not? Cap is cool.
