Gauntfield - Necropolis Hero

This is a fig I painted for my sons army. This is for the Warlord army of Necropolis. His theme colors he is doing is grays and purples. I had some tips from a couple of friends too, Scotty and Randon. Much appreciated  Anyway I hope you enjoy.
Cheers,

Andras, Overlord Captain...

Another fig for my sons Reaper Warlord army. This is for his Overlords. I think if I can pull it off I will paint the face armor white on his figs. Green and bronze are his main colors of choice. I gave him a tint of green in his armor just to tie it in. The base is not done on him.

Cheers,
John...

Overlord Shadow Legionnaire's...

Here are a couple of figs for one of my sons Reaper Warlord armies. These are from the Overlord faction. He wanted green and bronze to be his primary army colors. I am using dark metal colors for them but won't always go straight bronze. The bases are not done yet but I thought I would throw them up early.

Cheers,

WIP - Gauntfield, Necropolis Hero...

Here is a WIP for ya'll. I am painting some figs for my boys Reaper Warlord armies. My son wanted purple and gray for his primary army colors. The bones on this dude I used some rotten flesh colors to give it a different feel.
Enjoy...

Thursday WIPs

Alright, it's been a rough few weeks for me.  Fortunately after a couple of exams I am free again this wonderful Thursday to throw up some of what I have been working on.

These are the two models on my painting desk receiving my painting love.  The troll is part of the fully painted challenge thrown up here by Happy Panda... think once I finish this guy I have 25 pts fully painted!  Yes!!

The big guy is an Extreme Torch conversion I am painting up for a buddy.

I also decided to branch out from the norm and do a little bit of converting.  Here we have a gnarly Dwarven Gryphon rider... This guy may eventually end up as part of my all Rackham Kragmarr Dwarf army from Warlord... Until then... it's just a cool lookin' Dwarf on a Gryphon :)

For more angles and pics... click read more. :)

Warlord... Nefsokar... Thoth

Here is a fig I did a little bit ago for my Warlord army. At the rate I paint I will never be done. I do like the theme of this army though. Now I just need to learn how to kill giant flying chickens that the dwarves like to use. The detail after a while was killing me so some of it I speed up just to get the fig done.
Cheers,

Paint Night at Gamers...

Scotty has been organizing paint nights at a game store in Ogden called Gamer's Asylum. There was a great turn out so much so we had to keep gathering tables for people to sit. This gives us an opportunity to share knowledge, eat liver fattening food and have a great time. I even brought some fresh salsa that I had made that day with some blended peppers that you could add to make it hotter. One of the mixtures had some ghost chilies in it. Grim was the only one who tried that additive. Scotty did have some of the Cheyenne/Habanaro blend which was entertaining and why he kept eating was also a question. Chevy showed a cool display idea for his minis with a very nice miniature he just painted. Sweet!! Sephirob had some sweet robots that were 50isk in nature. Sarathain was working on his Infinity miniatures and sadly I did not see his work. Jupiter was working on his Circle army for Hordes. MenothJohn was working on I believe something for Warmachine but I could be mistaken. Grim was working on Dark Age as well as Scotty. Volf showed some of his recent work for Warlord. He had a sweet looking Wolfen. Chris was working on some Circle figs for Trevor. Chris' dad was there briefly and had some serious progress on a Jack from Warmachine. For a short time TheWyrm was there to chat it up. I hope I didn't miss anyone. Anyway here are several pics from the night. If you are in the area come and join us...

As you see in the picture... well you know.

We have some great advice being given or as some would say some serious wisdomous is going on....

I was out of ear shot so I am just assuming some sports talk is going on. Can you guess which poster Scotty wanted to take home with him?

I was mistaken. I did say it was paint night but this picture clearly displays it was also a gun show, I forgot my reading glasses and organizational skills. In all honesty the organization portion I am going to ripoff and do that down in my hobby den.

I think Grim would have painted more but Scotty kept running off with his figs.

The master and his student as well as 'Eat my Pringles dang it!"

I had to add some comments since we didn't have audio for this. We did have a great time and if you were not there you missed it.
Cheers,
John...

Pardon the Panda

So I was asked by the founders of this blog to be a contributing member and I happily accepted! I've learns so much from these guys and hope to share more with you all.

I started my war gaming experience like many with Warhammer 40k back in 4th edition but have since moved on to other games. Primarily Warmachine/Hordes but also own forces for Infinity, Malifaux, Warlord and probably quite soon a Dark Age force.

Can't wait to share my world with you!
