Greenskins

I'm thinking of getting rid of my Fantasy Green skin horde. These guys were Hilarious to play and fun to paint, but it's time to move on. Too many army's in boxes taking up room. But before it leaves the building, I thought I would document a few of the better paint jobs.


I like how the wood grain came out on this one. Fun unit to play. 



I was perfecting my Bone technique on this guy. 




Conversion I made from a tiny gobbo to a night gobbo champion. (cut off the feet and gave him a dress. which made twice the size of the original mini)







These are the only ones that I did not paint personally. Painted by friends and I ended up with them. 

A portion of the Waaaaghhhhhhh!!!!

Dwarfs - There and back again

I have Dwarfs on the brain right now. Grumpy Stunty's work really inspired me to lay down some paint. So yesterday I worked out a test mini.

I kind of like how this one turned out, but I'm not sold on it being the color scheme for my entire army just yet. I also have an idea shooting around my head to do an army in my clan tartan.


I have this old regiments of renown set : The Dragon company , that have tabards that would be perfect for a nice plaid. Below if one of the miniatures from the set that I painted some 20 years ago.



I was really proud of this guy back in the day. But I'm thinking him and all of his buddies are going to get the strip treatment and a new look. 
He was one of my first "conversions". I carved his little shield nub on his back into a little pack, and put a different type shield in front for mountain scene. 

Another old mini form the Long Drong Slayer Pirates set.

I also loved the old Chaos Dwarfs. (Yes I can not wait to see what forge world does with them....Big hats or not)



This all leads to one inevitability. The Dwarfs are Coming!!!!!
