Spacehulk and Frodo

Oh boy, am I looking forward to summer. I have some new miniatures for you though. First is a little monkey for my Spacehulk - the Orangutango from Reaper...fun little model. I'm aiming one day to have a complete spacehulk squad of monkeys. (This guy is a must have: http://www.grindhousegames.com/blogs/incursion-blog/3259422-this-guy-is-a-monster)

Anyway... Here is the Orangutang:



And I have been on some oldschool citadel miniature nostalgia trip as well. Here is a mounted Frodo from somewhere back in the eighties:



He is looking a little rough, but mind you, he is quite small in real life :) Cute little fella... Got the Frodo on foot as well...

Here's what I have been doing.

Long time, no update :( Sorry about that, but the real world kept bugging me. I would like to welcome all the newcomers to my blog. I'm so happy that you bother!

I have been painting in the meantime, though. Here's what I have been doing:

- The models for Wrath of Ashardalon. Nearly 50 plastic models for some more dungeoncrawling. speedpainted with Devlan mud and highlighted - to go with the Castle Ravnloft models shown earlier.

- 6 pretty nice plastic models for the boardgame Cluedo, no photos of them either, they have been shipped to customer (well actually they're on display at Fantask, Copenhagen, but they should be picked up anyday now)

- The first skavens for my new 2. ed skaven blood bowl team :)
This is the third 2.ed skaven team I paint... just love those rats (go Goodwin!)
As you can see, so far I have painted 3 linemen (one of them is the kicker model) and a gutterrunner. The colourscheme is orange/red and orange/yellow. (I realize that the ctachers loinclothes is somewhat less yellow than the rest... gotta do something about that) The plan is to paint them one at a time to give each of them full attention... Lets see if I can stick to that and actually finish the team... stay tuned! :)



3 socalled mites from Reapers Pathfinder. Nothing fancy... 2 hours of work and there you have them.I would love to field them against a party of adventureres... It's a shame that I don't do any roleplaying...

The complete 2. ed. elven blood bowl team

There you are. That should be it. Here is the complete 2. ed elf team. 17 models in total.

The treeman is hard to see in detail... He actually has a very nice face expression. It's a great model. I still don't know where he comes from - I remember having seen the model with a halfling team as well.

The linemen let the team down a bit, I think... As I had feared they look quite weak beside the blitzer and catcher models. Anyway - they are classic models and they belong to this team.

What now? Uhhhh I still have the urge to paint some more 2. ed blood bowl skavens, but then again you never know. Soon the Ravenloft boardgame follow-up will come out. Maybe I will speedpaint a set of dungeonraid plastic models.

BB-referee (human)

While I try to finish the 2. ed elven team... here's a little in between mini. One of the two bb-referees from gw... I have painted the other - a dwarf - as well... can't find it right now though...(You can see him on the slann team shot, I believe)

I'm working on the treeman for the elven team... he's quite a big guy :)

(Saw the rulebok for AE Bounty the other day... made me wanna paint some aliens... or maybe I should just stick to bb for some time... Uhhh so many minis and I'm so lazy...)

A new team-wip-photo

The first two linemen are done... and a second thrower. I still have to finish 4 more linemen (almost done) and the treeman. Can't wait to get my hands on that treeman. Customer showed me the model yesterday, and it was great. I haven't seen it before (and there I was, thinking I had seen it all). There was talk about altering the model with some greenstuff additions... I hope he doesn't alter it too much though :)

And I made a great bargain on ebay..hehe... buying another 15 2.ed skavens for my next bloodbowl skaven team... I wonder when I will actually have the time to paint them. Nonetheless it felt terrific to buy them :)

And a warm welcome to all the newcomers at this blog - I guess this bloodbowl updates have been quite popular. Don't worry, there will be more!

merry christmas

And a merry christmas to you too, sir!

I hope you will all get lead for christmas... or maybe resin.

- Unfortunately there is no such traditions at my place, so I have got to buy it myself. This week I have bought some winged little demons armed with guns (perfect for alternative spacehulk scenarios) and three 2. ed blood bowl skavens (the two throwers and a catcher). I just love those Jes Goodwin scuplts, and even though I have already painted two 2.ed skaventeams I have a craving for yet another one.

See you soon - I hope to have new pictures for you then...

Even more bb elves...

Ok then... here's the newest batch of 2.ed.blood bowl elves.

My eyes are getting much better (thanks for the concern, guys!), and though I feel these aren't my best minis ever, I'm still happy they could be done at all :)

And here's a groupshot fo the elves done so far.


I still have to paint something like 7 linemen and a treeman.
I'm looking forward to the treeman, but I'm a little concerned about all those linemen... I remember thinking they where incredibly cool back in the days with their mohawks and 'come and get some'-attitude, but now I'm not so sure...Actually I feel they're the weakest sculpts of the bunch.. hmmm...
