Build up!

Hi folks,

Sorry it has been a while, I have no idea where that time went!

Not a massive amount of progress in the last couple of months, but I have gotten through some of the models sat on my painting desk.

First up, I have finished Drogo my halfling barbarian for the D&D campaign I have been playing in.

 

 I also put the final touches on my wife's Escher gang for Necromunda!! these have only taken 5 or 6 years to complete! lol. Just have to finishing basing a few then varnish and I'm done with the pink ladies for good :)

Have also been touching up the random Reaper models sitting on my desk, the fighter is getting there but the rat has just had base colour and washes so far.

 On the Imperial Guard front, I finished 5 more grunts (forgot to take pics) and converted up a "counts as" Sly Marbo. As you can see he has only had a couple of case colours put on at the moment but I am really happy with how he looks. Oh and the weird grey box is his demo charge :) any C&C is appreciated.

And finally I have been cracking on with the Heroquest stuff from the last post, skeletons need their wood shafts touching up and then they are done, the mummies are finished, the elf is complete, the barbarian is nearly done, zombies are close to complete, chaos warriors will be started tonight and the wizard, dwarf and sorceror will be finished over the next couple of nights.

 

 That just leaves the big gargoyle, which I am still not sure how I am going to do him yet, but should be finished along with everything else by next weekend or maybe the following if anything pops up in "Real Life" :)

So all going well I should be posting again soon with updates or all going well the completed Heroquest and Necromunda gang!

Will see y'all then! as allways, if you have any questions or comments please feel free to leave a post or send me a mail :)

Save me Jebus!

Couple more pictures

Just another quick post, to show a couple of the minis that i am working on at the moment.
The barbarian has just had base coat and a wash on the flesh but should be finished for my next D&D session :)
The rest are very much WIP but i will be working on them all over the next week or so.

Guess who's back, back again...

Once again I have been away for a while, but am back and with a new hobby :)

I decided a few weeks ago that I would like to play D&D and after a bit of searching around I came across East Midland Roleplayers Gaming Group. 

After posting that I am completely new to D&D and in fact ALL role-play games, I soon found a game that was just starting up being run by Len (who also happens to be the main man for EMRGG). I was told I would need a Halfling or a Gnome character so I went for a Halfling Barbarian called Drogo Toe-Chomper (A nod to GRRM).

My first session I really enjoyed, the second even more and now as I wait for the 3rd, I find that I am becoming more than a little addicted to D&D!

Now coming from a miniature gaming background I obviously need a model to act as my avatar :) the options were pretty slim since there is only one company that I could find with a Halfling Barbarian - Heresy Miniatures Ghonad the barbarian :)

I ordered all three of the Halfling miniatures available at the time Ghonad, Van Halfling and Norko. I managed to get Drogo painted up in time for the first session (well  90% done and no basing)  and the other two were well on the way.

Unfortunately my wife thought it would be a great idea to throw the bubble wrap they were wrapped up in away!! I wasn't happy!

So I had to re-order the minis but now they come as a set of 4 and I now have "Buttercup, bringer of the Apocalypse" too :)

So at the moment I am painting up the Halflings and some other D&Desque figures I randomly had floating around in a couple of my figure boxes :)

Halfling Ready for painting

The current paint que, Drogo/Ghonad is at the front :) some Reaper Minis(i think) , Limited edition Necromancer, IG Senior Officer/Creed stand in and a test model for my Ogres.

As you can see in the picture, I have also been getting on with my Imperial Guard, painted up a couple more troops and have made a start on the Senior Officer/Creed count as. I have also started an Ogre test model (also in the picture), as I am thinking of stripping down and repainting all 3.5-4k of my Ogre Kingdom Army.

Too dark to take any good pictures at the moment, but I will try and get some more pics of everything tomorrow.

Sorry for the block of text, but I thought it better to post something rather than nothing :)

Regards,

Apoc
