Oathmark Indrik

 




There's a woolly rhino critter in Oatmark called "Indrik" and I attempted making my own with clay. I think it may be a bit too big.

Fantasy village


 I'd say that's enough terrain for fantasy/medieval skirmishing.

Four tall buildings are from David Graham (www.davesgames.net) purchased via DriveThruRPG.

The smaller huts (good and ruined) are from a collection by Todd Gamble, Robert Lazzaretti and Dennis Kauth.

The clay ruins and well are my own creations.

Paper Terrain

 


I haven't painted up any model recently, but I've assembled some paper terrain. I've got a bunch of sturdier (mostly HDF) sci fi terrain, but not much in the medieval/fantasy style. I thought these would be good enough for some possible Frostgrave or Five Leagues games in future.

Space Pirate Trooper 1




Kitbashed figure to be used as a Stargrave Pirate, Mars:Code Aurora Order Star Eagle Trooper or a generic enemy for Five Parsecs From Home.
Made bits manufactured by Maxmini, Spellcrow and Kromlech. Also featuring my new clay background.
I tried to match the drawing below.

Bounty Hunter 1

 


First of the space cowboys I inteded as Bounty Hunters for Stargrave but will work as a character in a Five Parsecs From Home crew. And maybe as an Equality Igualdad Soldado in Mars: Code Aurora.

Model is from Puppetswar.

Age of Sigmar Skeletons

 


They're kinda monopose, but I like them. They're probably not the most economical box of skeletons on the market (and there's quite a bit of competition), but I got them as a gift.

Wintersplinter

 


A model I painted up back in July, but I couldn't post it because it would be a spoiler for my Curse of Strahd group. And they ended up interrupting the ritual, so Wintersplinter was not awakened. Oh well, still a cool model.

Model by Scibor Monstrous Miniatures.

Female Brigand






This figure was a freebie added to an order by now defunct FigurkiRPG. She's larger than I prefer my models, but I guess this one woman is a really tall brigand. If I can find a Frostgrave group she will be one of my Thieves.
The eyes came out a little more demonic than I intended.

Model by TytanTroll Miniatures.

Spellcrow Torsos - Jungle vs Blood Dancers

 




I think I got bamboozled.

I used Blood Dancer torsos from Spellcrow with Catachan bits and they didn't fit. I ordered the Jungle Guard ones and I think they're actually the same torsos but with a belt and dogtag necklace added. Either way they don't really fit Catachan Jungle Guard arms and heads.

So I guess I need other bare ones that are smaller than the old Catachan Squad box ones. They're surprisingly hard to find.

Clay Purple Worm





Unfortunately the pictures are overexposed. The purple looks great in real life. I used Amaco Smokey Merlot for the worm and Amaco Oatmeal for the base. The spots are part of the clay.

 

Die Bearer

 




My girlfriend was given this cool metal die and I decided it needed a cool place to rest. So I painted that model for her.

Scibor Miniatures model, die unknown.

Mother of Mushrooms

 





Something a little different: I have been going to pottery classes for a while now and one day I decided to make a miniature with leftover clay. I aimed for a Zuggtmoy like figure. It turned out pretty well!

Wildcat with Spitfire

 





I finally painted a new Infinity model. And one of my favourite units, Wildcats. First picture is a comparison of the new Spitfire model with the out of production one.
At first I thought it would be a simple paint job, as the new version looks pretty similar to the old one. But while painting I started noticing more and more differences between them. I tried to have some uniformity (like the asymmetric knee caps), but it was a lot of new stuff still.
Model by Corvus Belli. Base topper from Kromlech.

Doctor Rudolph Van Richten

 


The intrepid vampire hunter, Dr Rudolph Van Richten. In my campaign, a witch hunter from Ostermark. I painted this model earlier in the year, but it took until October for him to make his campaign debut and until now for me to photograph him.
Model from TytanTroll Miniatures, printed by Sklep FigurkiRPG.

Kromlech base toppers





I am impressed with Kromlech HDF base toppers. They're a lot better looking in person than in the online store. I especially like the varied textures.
Here compared with Zen Terrain ones, which are IMO too thick (3 mm vs 1.5 mm).
Now they just need to make 55 mm ones for bigger Infinity models.

Skeleton 3, 4, 5; Zombie 1, 2

 



I managed to paint some undead over the weekend. Building up my skills and confidence unitl I tackle the vampire lord. I misplaced my tufts again though.

Zombies are Reaper and skeletons are old Warhammer with Oathmark swords.
