Willow's Warcry: Sorceress Stormcast

New Blog Banner!

I thought it was time for a fresh look that was more Motu and Cavalry themed. Had my good buddy Mustafa of Spevna Studios work this up.

Willow's Warcry Warband: Sorceress Stormcast

Willow is getting to the age were she is interested in trying out gaming.  She fell in love with Gryphounds and Aetherwings so I threw together a warband for her with some Motu inspiration.

Fogou Mud & Brick Kickstarter

G'day M8's you remember Fogou Models right?  The great company that brought us the fantastic Battle at the Farm and Fort Hardknox  terrain sets.

 

Well they are running a fantastic new Kickstarter of Mud and Brick Buildings for any type of Orky Village or Hellsreach type tables.  They could even double for several Historical settings.

Black Vasken’s Untamed Beasts

G'day M8's today's post is gonna be a little beasty!!! Hope your ready. ;)

Strontium Dog Boyl Comic Report

Been meaning to finish this since Boyl and just seems to be slipping back in the queue.  Anyway here is the Strontium Dawg game ran by Aiteal at Boyl where we got to hunt Hitler and kill Nazi's...one of my favorite freedom loving hobbies.

 

Warcry Snarf and other Beasties

With prepping my Untamed Beasts for Warcry the Rock Tusk just wasn't doing it for me. I remembered I had a leftover 4th ed Manticore tail in my bitz box so decided to convert a Dunger into my Warcry Snarf.

Custom Dice

G'day M8's! My buddy Axiom every year has custom dice for the games he runs at Boyl and it inspired me to get some of my own.  I thought I would keep them similar to the old Heroquest icons to give that old school vibe.  I made some rough sketches and sent them over to be professionally done by my good buddy Mustafa of Spevna Studios.  Hope you like them as much as I do. 



I got some with Black Vasken's face so he had his own personal dice, then I got a bunch with Kissy Snakes face to be used by all my other units.   

Can't wait to roll these!

Big Warcry Untamed Beasts assembly

More Warcry progress...

New Black Vasken

I’m onto yet another version of Black Vasken my Eternal Champion. This will be my fourth, andprobably not my last. Planning this one for Warcry.

I’m getting pretty happy with th result of this helmet crest. So stay tuned as the version moves along.

21 Genestealers in erm....14 days 🤷🏻‍♂️

I got them done in 14 days. Added with the 7 I did a couple weeks ago I have a full force of 28 Genestealers ready to get hulking!!!

I’m really enjoying the contrast paints. These aren’t my best work but you can’t beat 28 miniatures complete in 14 days worth of painting. I’m going to continue experimenting with contrast paints. They have been really fun so far to try out and encourage anyone to give them a try.

21 Genestealers in 21 days

G’day Drongo’s!  So where am I at with the genestealers? 🤷🏻‍♂️  I have 21 left to get done for early November. So I’ve committed to the goal of doing 21 in 21 days. I figured I could get in an hours worth of painting of an evening . Well I’m way ahead of schedule and I might actually get all 21 done in a week or 2.

Here are 11 in three stages of batch painting I’ve got done the last three evenings. Contrast paints are mostly to thank, and making the commitment of 60 mins of painting has upped my production.

Then I have 10 more sitting unpainted. I think over the next three evening I can get them up to the stage of the other 11.

I might have them all done this weekend if not by the end of next week.

Committing to 60 mins of painting every evening has been a lot of fun as well. I’ve set a daily timer to remind me so if you find yourself getting distracted instead of hobbying I encourage you to try something similar. 

Warcry terrain finished

G'day M8's!  I got my terrain finished as well as the Raptoryx's.

Preordered Warcry Expansion and Terrain Assembly

I preordered Monsters and Mercenaries.

Work also continues on assembling Warcry, got the terrain assembled and base coated.  

Contrast Paints: Genestealers and Dark World Sorcerer

I've knocked out 7 Genestealers so far with the Contrast paints.  I'm using Volpus Pink and Ultramarine Blue then giving them a wash of Nuln oil at the end.  I'm quite happy with the results and have 21 more stealers to knock out by November for Monolith-co.

Also had the sorcerer from Dark World and decided to try him out.  I really like how the contrasts worked on him, and give him a very bright and vibrant 80/90s look.

I think I'm sold on Contrast paints, and will continue to experiment and get the most out of them.

Saturday Morning Mailbag: Contrast Paints

I got a nice haul from the post lady today!

Warcry

I did it! I made the plunge into the 8 points and plan to conquer the Varanspire!

All my Wacky Vehicles

JB  started a great thread on Facebook about showing off vehicles.  As I looked around the war room I noticed at how many I actually had.  So thought I'd re-share them as a full post here.  Enjoy all the 80's goodness!

1st Ed Space Hulk Genestealer Prep

I have some contrast paints on the way, sadly they wont get here till next week.  So I thought I'd use my time to get some genestealers prepped in anticipation.

Moawr Orks for Da Black Teef

I now have all the orks I own painted.  The Black Teef have recruited their numbers up to 40 now.  Look out for a waaaaaaaagh near you.

Kissy Snake Level's Up in a big way!

Do you have a minute to talk about our lord and savior Kissy Snake?



If you weren't aware Kissy Snake has been a fringe character developed back in 2017.  I had ordered the Fright Zone toyset which came along with the Snake Puppet.  My daughter dubbed it Kissy Snake and so that's what we've called him ever since. 

Space Hulk Hyborks vs Orks

This next Space Hulk mission I got to play in. Nico had me teamed up with Lopez vs Otto's Hyborks...it would be a green vs green battle for DA GREENSEED!

TMNT Space Hulk

Are you ready for some Turtletastic Space Hulk adventures?  No, well what if I told you it was played on Nico's wonderful Space Hulk board.

Boyl 2019 Recap

Well it's that time of year where me and Lopez head over to Ol' Blighty for a rousing weekend of wargaming and fun at the Foundry.  Then by chance Blue in VT was able to make it. So here Lopez is sleeping in Heathrow waiting for him.

Boyl TMNT Termies and RoC Objective Marker

I don't know where the idea came from, but one day it bored in my brain and had to be done.  I give you my Boyl Space Hulk minis the Teenage Mutant Ninja Termies.  With Sgt. Splinter leading the crew against Krang and his evil doers!

More Boyl Prep

Boyl prep continues at full steam!

Luckily these are just single miniatures for narrative games.  

First up is my terminator survivor, a wrestler, for Cheetor's game on Sunday.

Then my chaos psyker is doubling as my ash waste racer. Dual purpose miniatures are a must for the international traveler. ;)

Lastly here is my Strontium dog agent ready to kill Nazi's and Hitler's 

Next post are my terminators for Nico's Space Hulk game.  Hoping to have them done this weekend.

Noresmian Nights by Lead Adventures

I backed Noresmian Nights from Lead Adventure Miniatures and I'm so glad I did!  It is such a departure from my normal hobby zone and am so excited to share.
