WIP it!

Haven’t had much of a chance to take new photos or paint anything this week, so this update is a bit of a blast from the past. The first pic is some kind of Warzone/Mutant Chronicles figure. I can’t remember what this guy is exactly, but he’ll fit into a Nurgle-themed chaos cult/Lost and the Damned force well enough, so that will do him, if I ever get around to building and fielding such a force. I’m showing him today because I had the photo handy, I think it’s a nice looking paintjob, and I wanted to have some colour in this update by having at least a finished figure included.

Iron Warriors Chaos Space Marines Work In Progress WIP

These are some early assembly/WIP pictures of my Iron Warriors figures, some of whom are finished and shown here (bottom half of the page). Just a mixture of plastic Marine, Chaos Marine, Khorne Berserker kits with metal components from the Iron Hands and Iron Warriors kits.

The Warsmith’s (on the right) head is from a Noise Marine, and his Thunder Hammer/Power Weapon is from a Chronopia figure, with some guitar wire added. The champion is just a kitbash of metal and plastic parts, but I think he looks effective. I should pull my fist out and finish these figures someday!

Ent Painting Challenge

The next painting challenge over at www.one-ring.co.uk is for an Ent. I’ve had the Treebeard model since 2003 I’d guess, sitting in it’s box, unassembled and unpainted, so the idea of actually getting it painted and finished is actually quite exciting. There’s something to be said for these things – they really help with adding motivation. Here’s the “proof” pic.

My wife is also painting a figure, it’s the smaller one in the picture. A Mithril Miniatures MM188 Entwife, which I understand are long out of production. I picked this one up so long ago it makes the Treebeard figure look like a damn nOOb! I think I may have bought it to use in Blood Bowl. I honestly can’t remember, but it was a very long time ago.

I’ve added some DAS modelling clay to both of their bases, then added some twigs to represent branches, as well as sand and cat litter to repsesent dirt and rocks, respectively.
