2023 Miniature Log

This afternoon I decided to smash out ‘ Da Kunnin’ Krew’ for Underworlds. Really basic colours meant that it wasn’t even a couple of hours per mini, and with only 5 models in the ‘Krew’ it took next to no time.

Truth is that I didn’t really go anywhere I just didn’t post for a while. I painted heaps but I’ll just post some of it. I’ll start with all the Warcry scenery. Well most of it (there really is tons of it).

These are some French adventurers I painted for Silver Bayonet.

I’ll finish up with some Vampires. The Askurgan vampires are warrior monks trying to overcome the lust for blood. Apart from a cool story they are also great fun to paint.

I also got the Cursed City Villan bosses done. More vampires and some undead ogres

Apology for the poor photo quality but the Australian winter sun is almost as blindingly bright as the summer sunlight.

So I continued with 2 previous projects, the first were my Averland and Nordland armies, adding a unit of Knights Panther and Knights of the Blazing Sun. It was only as I choose these that I realised the basic colours of these two orders was Yellow/Black (Averland) and Yellow/Blue (Nordland). I’m awaiting some 3D printed shield with sun icons on them for the KBS but for all other intents and purposes, they are done.

I also finished off the square based Karlstarks. They have yet to see table time in ASOIAF but have already been used in KoW and may end up as Middenlanders in the Olde World. Strangely the Karlstarks have blazing sun icons on their spearmens shields and standards. Perhaps I should have painted them yelow and black…..

So once again I forgot to post anything despite getting plenty done. I started with the flavour of the month in ASOIAF, the Golden Company. I done particularly like the colour scheme but by half way through I realised it was too late so I pressed on.

My question to CMON is “are these Elephants (and mommoths in Freefolk) really self navigating in combat? Would it have really been that hard to put a howdah on there?

Next I returned to Warcry. I had alreadyt done a ton of terrain for Heart of Ghur so 1 or two more boxes of it wasn’t going to break me. I started with the Gorgers from The Hunter and the Hunted box set. I also regretable was convinced by one of my Warcry buddies to watch Bone Tomahawk. Essential Cannibal horror western with grizzly deaths delivered by troglodyte natives that look like Gorgers. I should probably add blood spray to these minis.

This guy has sat on a shelf half finished for about 2 years. I just didn’t need a Frost giant enough I guess. Either way, Done! Is it pretty -No. Do I care -No.
