This topic is the continuation from series started in April this year. I have been updating the first one every month with a new name and to continue mutual inspiration and support.
I was very happy to see people contributing regularly and thanks to that the topic grew in size. Unfortunately, because of that it was a bit unwieldy if you wanted to check prior contributions.
It was suggested to start a new topic every 3 months to make it easier to browse. So here we go! A new topic for October that is going to be updated for November and December along the way!
I am already looking forward to seeing even more fantastic contributions! Please share what you are currently painting or have just finished painting. The purpose is to keep supporting each other and help with any painting project!
i’ll have to be cooling my jets for the first half of October, waiting for my new Mantic goblins to arrive… at least in theory anyway, but i’m sure i’ll find something to keep me getting too bored
ooooooooooh they look really nic. I’ve never seen them up close. Didn’t realise they had the same detail as the trolls… . Mantics website doesnt do them justce, i’ll have to buy some now…
Hey gang, new poster here, having played my first game of Kings of War this summer!
I’ve recently started repurposing my old Warhammer Fantasy Wood Elves into a Sylvan Kin list.
So far I’ve finished my Silverbreeze regiment and Elrik Nisleen. Hoping to finish the Wiltfather and Hunters of the Wild this month.
So for October, the plan is the last unit & hero for the dark age Varangur (plus gratuitous army pics!), a random orc character (for a Middlehammer painting tribute event) and the start of a proper halfling army (Wargames Atlantic & TTCombat stuff). Then its clearing the decks for Armada!
They were meant to be ogre palace guard, but a friend asked to to try out warcry. Until I decide if I want to play a) the game and b) stormcasts, they remain on rounds. If either question will be answered with “no” I’ll transfer them to a multibase.
Other than that, there’s only some WIP projects. Full story here.
You could also make a base with holes in it for the circular bases, like the old War of the Ring GW bases…
It’s quite easy to do yourself, you grab a piece of MDF, draw out where you want your troops, and then you drill a small hole, and saw out the size of the base with a jigsaw (figuurzaag in Dutch). Or if you have fancy large-hole drills, you can do that in one go.
Many thanks @Telchar. i used clear mastik for the water, to bring out the texture of the current using an old throwaway brush . it’s a bit fumey while it dries, but leaves great ripples and currents. it was almost a shame to put the models on it as it looks great as a terrain piece, but in reality individual models slide off the road… even with the course wet and dry sandpaper for tarmac and added traction
I managed to finish a shamblers regiment recently. The central model is removable, so I can play the unit in two versions, either with a bow of Kaba or without it.
