Last one (for now)
So this is my last mini from the kickstarter and other stuff I had acquired for moonstone, I tried my airbrush on this one with warpaint air colours. I liked the trio of each colour and it says on the bottle were that colour is the range (high, mid or base) and also what the other colours in the trio are. I found that very useful.
I haven’t glued her in yet as still not sure if I like the yellow on the wings, I think it should be a stronger yellow this seems very pale. Let me know what you think as I may just glaze them.
Giants & Trolls and some others
I’m nearly done with all the stuff I ordered on the kickstarter (and the few bits I had already). There are some of the special miniatures from the kickstarter, Kalista in a different pose (image 2) and Voth and the Homunculus (images 4 & 5). I did a rare bit of freehand for the writing on the book.
Just Diana Enraged left to go now.
Some fine Gnomes
These are the Mama’s boys set, they seem to have a lot of character.
Even more moonstone
Just got these done and realised you couldnt see much on the airships so here a better picture.
Getting there
I thought I had posted these a while ago but here is Tumbledown Street & the Outlanders along with both airships.
I used the warpaints air for the first time with the airships and they seem to work very well straight out of the bottle, no need to add any thinners. I’ve added some pictures of them straight after the airbrushing was done.
Kickstarter ahoy
So I might have gone a bit overboard with the kickstarter but its here now and I thought I would start with the starter set.
Below is a reminder for me of the paints used for the skin
The ones at the back are next batch, those are the Outlanders and Tumbledown street which should be done soon.
Finally Finished
So I have finally got around to finishing these, I got distracted by some Orks and the new Kill team box but I finally got to finish these.
The basing on the ones with trees was using the Basius system, I am not sure it showed it off to its best but I will try something with a full base at sometime in the future.
More stuff
Despite saying I would wait for the kickstarter to arrive, i’ve given in and got some more.
Basing
Having just watched the XLBS I thought I would put something in about the basing, much as I would like to claim I sculpted all the leaf’s and shrooms on the bases they are bought from here:
30mm Woodland Round Lip Bases (modeldisplayproducts.co.uk)
The priestess I couldnt use those bases on as they wouldnt really fit with her tree, I’ve ordered a couple of plates from here to see what they are like:
BASIUS & BASIUS MAX – The custom sculpture miniature basing system – DirectBasius
I’ll update this once I’ve given them a go.
Mostly Done
So these are mostly done now and I’ve put them on scenic bases apart from the priestess as I couldn’t workout how to integrate her tree with the base so I filled it in with green stuff and tried so sculpt it. Once that has set and is painted I’ll find out if that worked.
If your wondering about the murder bunnies, my sister always had dutch rabbits and one of them could have come from borris, so in honour of him i’ve made them all dutch rabbits.
In the beginning
These are the Malachite Mysticsm, Gwendoline is pretty much done but the other are still a work in progress.
