And done (ogre and dwarf)

Well, it has been a while, sorry for that, but have been busy with some things other than painting (and no not all was hanging on the couch).
Today i managed to finish the dwarf and put the last drop of paint on the ogre, i might do a bit of patching up on the smoke in the future, but for now, i am pretty happy.
As for the basing, i will add something in the future, but i prefer to do larger amounts of models at once, since i find it really boring work.

Here are some pictures:

Then there is the next WIP, the Mournfang riders, they tend to go pretty slow tbh, but i am in good hope to get them finished next week (that is the riders only, not the actual mounts).

Both are at the same stage, so here is a picture:

More news about the ogre and dwarf

Well, got a bit more work done on both models, the more i paint on them, the better is start to like them.
I got the Firebelly nearly to the point to start working on the little campfire, i might just push that to next week, not sure yet, it seems to me it will take me some time to get it right.
For myself i really enjoy the high contrasting color on the bugface, reading into the background of the thing, it appeared to me it must be a beetle thingy living in that cave, and blue seemed the absolute wrong color for it.

Well enough talking, picture time:

That takes me to John his Dwarf, i must admit, the further i get into this model, the better it seems to be getting as well, i myself am not that into dwarfs at all, so i thought at start it would become a struggle towards the end of the mini, but it isn't, pretty happy with that.

All i am hoping for is that john will like the miniature.

Again, pictures of the little fella:



A dwarf and a Ogre

Well, i have had en bit of continuation on my friends dwarf, next to that its time to show the first pictures of the second army i am currently working on.

I already have finished 1 unit of Ogre bulls, pictures of that will follow later on, for now i will post some WIP (Work in Progress) pictures of the Firebelly.
It was a big hassle to get it ready for painting, i actually got a phonecall from Nasa, what those 7 Grand Canyons where doing on my balcony, so after a lot of greenstuffing and filling, i could start painting it a few days ago.
I hope you will enjoy the pictures, i know i enjoyed the painting (not the fixing GW's mistakes)

Which gets me to the Dwarf, so far i am really enjoying the model, painting 2 armies side by side and do the ocasional random miniature in between really keeps up the good spirit.

I am hoping to get this little guy ready by the end of this week, so i can also start on the second dwarf, some runeguy i think, not really that into dwarfs myself to know all those names.

Well some pictures for your pleasure:



Little guys for a friend.

As part of a deal i have with a friend of mine i promissed to paint him 2 Dwarf characters.
So yesterday i got started on the slayer, both are Avatars of War mini's, and they look pretty good.
Never got to paint a mini of them before, not everything is as i would like to see it, but i think that will happen always.

I can talk for ages, but in the end, we want pictures, so here we go.

Finally some new stuff

Now it is time for some of my new stuff.
As mentioned before i am working on 2 armies at the moment, i choose to paint one on a bit higher level then the other one, so they actually some day will be finished.

I will start with some pictures of the vampire army:

The 2 Necromancers that have to do the trick now.

Ofcourse there are some units in the army as well.

I started off with a unit of 15 skeletons, a corpse cart en 5 black knights, the black knights are WIP atm, but i think it needs no saying at all.



Some more old stuff.

This Ethereal was painted last year

The Vampire i painted in 2009

Typhus also from 2009

That was some old stuff, starting this week i will start posting new stuff, this will contain te two armies (Ogre Kingdoms and Vampire Counts) i am working on right now, and some random stuff including commission painting.
