Otherworld Goblins Part 1 and Dad-Daughter project update.

I've finally gotten around to finishing off some goblins for my Fantasy gaming I think I bit off more than I could chew trying to do them all at once and so have split it in half. I am gong to do a few other figures from other ranges before painting the second half.

What you can see here is Goblin Warriors 2 pack and Half of the Goblins command pack (Bodyguard and Sub Chief or Champion as I like to think of him probably Oldhammer thinking ...) I have the Chieftain and Shaman left to do and a the goblin missile troops pack (2 bow and 2 slings). Once these 12 are finished I hope to reward myself with the other two goblin warrior packs bringing the total of goblins upto 20.

They are all cracking sculpts

I've tried a different method with the below mainly zooming in and then cropping using the s/w on my phone. Undecided still.

You'll notice the Dad- daughter project tag has been added and is in the title again. My Daughter Carmen is painting her other Young Fire elementalist (yay) We plan to do some Fantasy gaming together using some of my Otherworld adventurers as a sort of ad hoc town militia to back up the two mages. I am looking at various rulesets at the moment for it. With possibly using Frostgrave as the D20 takes out some of the predictability it seems.

WIP but we hope to finish her soon.

The First Fire Elementalist (called Elsa :P)

Anyway hope your all enjoying the lovely weather were having in the UK at the moment and talking of which this will be my last past for a couple of weeks whilst we go away on our Jollies to the seaside for a bit of R&R and family time.

Let it go, Let it go!

My eldest Carmen turned 8 yesterday so most of the spare time 

this weekend has been spent on prep for birthday celebrations and other things associated with it. 

Know for Christmas I bought Carmen a set of figures from the Frostgrave range by Northstar miniatures. A pair of young Fire Elementalists who if ahem cough cough were to be painted up in a similar colour scheme would make a perfect wargaming set of Anna and Elsa from the film Frozen.

This has been a father/daughter project we have worked on over January and into this month and we have finished the first of the pair this week.


We cleaned them up (mostly me) and based on some mdf bases I had spare we used my normal milliput as I thought it would look good as snow.

Carmen busy working away. I helped her with the fiddly bits such as lips and eyes. But other than that it was all Carmen :)

I think the base looks quite well as snow. Onto Anna next.

Merry Be-lated Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone though it be a little bit later than usual. I hope you have all been good and got something nice. Its been a very busy Christmas in the Brummie household this year for some reason not had the time to browse the blogs as usually but things are settling down a bit this week so I shall have a good catch up.

Hobby wise not really got much to show cleaned up and based a few more Hasslefree miniatures and started a dad/daughter project with my eldest in the form of assembling and painting the fire elementalists from Frostgrave I wonder what colours they will be painted? :)

Santa loot has been the following getting there with the theme's this year and treacle toffee nom nom!
Haven't had chance to even sniff the art book yet either!

As for my own stuff got these guys assembled. Need to base and fill some joins on three of them then it will be time for priming.

 Picked this football mini up from Hasslefree not sure what I'm going to do with her yet. Will be Post Apoc'd somehow. I did think of changing the head and adding some sort of weapon to the left hand.

Playing a game of Across the Dead Earth with Carmen this week as well. made to gangs of a similar composition just going to try it with basic rules to begin with :) so there may be a little bit of a battle report depending on how things go.
