Been a busy week hobby wise. Undercoated my LOTR Ruins. Nearly finished my Otherworld Fighter. Then deciding to dig out my other adventurers found the first two dwarfs the varnish had gone opaque............. So they are no sitting in the strip pot. I also decided I no longer like the chunky dungeon bases so have stripped all the base off and start again and done them as my standard figures. Not sure whether they will be grey perhaps they might be a pale brown in colour we shall see!
This was actually taken Yesterday evening prior to chopping off the base and doing it again. In the pic below you can see he has a new base.
Stripped Dwarfs and the re-based adventurers. I need to touch up a few figures mainly the ranger and cleric who arms broke off during the base removal process :( But I'm happier about the more consistent base size it was far to uneven heights depending on when they where bought and based!
The ruins under coated. Not bothered doing the planking yet as there are going to be dry brushed etc
A lot going on there and it's all good.
ReplyDeleteHola
ReplyDeleteGUAUUUUUUUU como me gustan esas ruinas,ganas de verla con las minis
un saludo
Lots going on dude.
ReplyDeleteYour metals look excellent, those are a right pain for me to do. Do I see a dog on the painting table?
ReplyDeleteThere are two from Otherworld I finished them last year but have change my mind on the basing so have done new ones.
DeleteThe thinner bases are the way to go, Simon.
ReplyDeleteThose OW wardogs are especially nice sculpts IMO.
Yeah its what got me started on OW :D
DeleteNice brushwork Mr Q!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot on your workbench - I particularly like the look of those ruins!
ReplyDeleteLots of projects distracting me from one to another lately
DeleteFabulous work. The armor on the first figure is particularly nice.
ReplyDeleteCheers Dean. I really wasn't sure about the armour but everyone seems to like it.
DeleteOh my, and I thought my table was busy at the moment - looking good Simon.
ReplyDeleteLOL Thanks Michael yeah some will get cleared down this week. Some EotD Figures and the OW won't take long.
DeleteI love the firs pic , great paint on this .
ReplyDeleteCheers .
Thanks Vincent.
DeleteThey look great, love the knight, I have 3 card buildings about 20 minis and 2 1/72 kits on the go at the moment, but I just can't find any time to work, I get about an hour before I go to bed, I'm so tired at that time I just want to watch the TV LOL,
ReplyDeleteIt varies from week to week If I'm tired I do simple stuff like undercoating and puttying bases.
DeleteI think the thinner bases will be worth the pain of getting there. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah. They where to varied in thickness and looked cack plus I was thinking about getting some gribblies and stuff and don't fancy sculpting all there bases.
DeleteSuch a busy boy- just love your work!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoy it!
DeleteThat knight looks fantastic, great choice of colours for the armour, too - adds to the contrast. The shield seems awfully thick, is it original?
ReplyDeleteThanks I wanted an experienced looking fighter whose invest his hard earn pay into his gear. Yeah its all original parts it does seem thick doesn't it!
Deletenice work keep you very busy
ReplyDeleteThanks I think the terms distracted and butterfly spring to mind!
DeleteI say Simon there is some very interesting stuff on there and I am looking to seeing these developed further. I do love the Bulldogs
ReplyDeleteCheers they are lovely sculpts I may get some more at some point they are just so nicely done.
DeleteYou've gt a lot going on there.
ReplyDeleteYeah a bit too much. Moved some back to the wip box looks healthier now and not like I've taken on to many at once lol
DeleteNice one Simon, progress is progress
ReplyDeleteThanks indeed it is!
Deletethat lil' armoured warrior looks really great
ReplyDeleteThanks Dezzie!
DeleteAll progress is good mate!
ReplyDeleteIt is all about finding something you LIKE to do. If it feels like REAL WORK it is just not as fun...
Indeed Johnny you are very correct!
