Painted Lord Carver, BMMD, Esq. III

Finished my second Minions warlock, Lord Carver. I'm pretty impressed by how regal he came out.

Painted Brun Cragback

Finished with the lesser warlocks now. Just have to finish their warbeasts (after Adepticon).

Painted Dahlia Hallyr

Working on the Minion solo warlocks, finished Dahlia Hallyr. I've never really played with her in game, but when I switch back to Retribution, I'd start playing her and Skarath as a flanking force. She's got some pretty good abilities that really get overshadowed and I'd like to see how they work with Garryth.

Painted Major Victoria Haley

I finished the Cygnar I need to for Adepticon for warcasters. Major Victoria Haley is the last model. I needed her for test games of Speedmachine. She runs a Stormwall and a Stormclad with the Stormwall bonded to her for that event. I just need to finish painting the Stormclad and that list will be complete.

Haley was really quick to paint, I managed to paint her in 3 hours. Mostly she's just made up of those robes, so it was really quick.

Painted Caitlin Finch

So this model is a particular milestone for me. It is my 400th painted model. It also finishes off my 50th warcaster/warlock painted. Two very awesome accomplishments. I'm really looking forward to the next set of goals. Here she is.

Painted Artificer General Nemo

Working on finishing the Nemo straight (all the Nemo models), I finished the Artificer General Nemo model. I still have Finch to finish, but she'll get done tomorrow. Here's Nemo, following the same scheme as his other incarnations, in all his electric goodness!

Painted General Adept Nemo

Woot! General Adept Nemo joins the Commander Adept in the completed pile of painted warcasters/warlocks. I'm 22 away from my goal still, but Artificer General Nemo is part of it. I'm also 16 models away from having fully 50% of the warcasters/warlocks that are available painted! That's freaking awesome! I'll be very happy to cross that threshold and never get less than it again.

Here's some WIP and fully painted pics.

Painted Commander Adept Nemo

Finished this guy up tonight. I really like how all the storm models come out for Cygnar. Very happy with the new sculpt for Nemo. The original was awful compared to this one. Now I just have to finish the next two Nemos. :)

Painted Kara Sloan

My work through Cygnar continues. Today, I finished Captain Kara Sloan. I've had good experiences painting Kara Sloan. This is the second time I've painted this model and this one I get to keep. The other was a custom mod'd one for a friend. Very happy to give such a beautiful model away. She paints up really well.

Painted Lieutenant Caine

Finishing off Captain Caine was awesome. Finishing off Lieutenant Caine was just icing on the cake. The models are painted pretty much the same. I'm very happy with how both look. Here's some shots of him alone and both versions.

Painted Captain Caine

So, yes, I need to finish his base, but hell if he isn't the rest of the way done. Very happy with how he turned out. The face, hair, and armor turned out exactly like I hoped for! Very happy to have this guy done! Enjoy!

WIP Caines

I'm working on painting both Lieutenant Allister Caine and Captain Allister Caine. The models are pretty much identical in gear, making it easy to paint one, then paint the exact same color in the same place on the other model. This is two of the six basic colors on the model, not including flesh, hair, or eyes (which add 5ish colors).

Painted Iron Lich Overseers and Scavenger

On Friday, I finished two of these models, the second Overseer and the Scavenger. They finish the Witch Coven of Garlghast's second Theme Force, putting me to a total of 12 painted 50 point tier-4 Theme Forces.

Painted Iron Lich Overseer

Working on the second Theme Force for the Witch Coven of Garlghast means I need to paint 2 Iron Lich Overseers. Well, here is the first. The second, which will match this, is going to be done soon too.

Chooser of the Slain

The Space Wolves have an option in their codex that no model exists for: the Chooser of the Slain.

Painted Ragman

I needed to get my Ragman painted to start playing some kickass lists without Bane Thralls, Wraith Engine, or Goreshade the Bastard. :) I've got some Colossal cracking lists that need some playtime and Ragman gets a front row seat to provide help.

I painted him in about 36 minutes, which is probably the fastest I've ever painted a model. I'm happy with how he came out, he does well for what I'm going for. He's my 390th painted model as well. I'm getting pretty close to 400 now!

Finished Kraken

After my friend Michael convinced me to paint the rivets, I had a swell time doing that. It is the most evil thing anyone can suggest. :P I'm really happy to have finished this beast and can move onto other projects. He's getting a game Tuesday to try him with the new paintjob.

Painted Circle Theme Forces

These are the three fully painted Theme Forces for Circle Orboros I completed in 2012.

Kraken, Bit By Bit.

For the last week now, I've been working on getting my Kraken fully painted so I can play it. I'm really excited to use it more with Asphyxious the Hellbringer but also with Warwitch Deneghra and Pirate Queen Skarre. The Kraken has so many uses and is really versatile in its operation. I'd like to get more playtime with it, but it needs to get painted before it can see any table time (new rule this year).

To paint it, I kept the Kraken in 4 parts. I had the legs, the body, and the two claws separate. The body prevents me from getting to some angles on the legs and the legs prevents the same to the body. The claws/arms prevent access to both. It was just easier to have everything separate and paint it that way. It is a lot lighter as well.

A New Year...

So, I haven't posted in awhile. So long in fact that I didn't really post anything of what was new in December or what I've been working on. What can I say, December was pretty crazy. :)

In this month, I painted Cassius and Wurmwood, 4 Gallows Groves, 2 units of Stonewards and Woldstalkers, a Blackclad Wayfarer and a Scarsfell Griffon. These finished up the 3 Theme Forces I was working on for Circle, Baldur1's, Baldur2's, and Cassius' second Theme Force. Pretty happy to get up to 10 fully painted Theme Forces.

Without further ado, the painted models...

More Usefull Terrain

So, I had about 1/2 an hour to kill so me and my boy whipped up some better terrain:

Useless Terrain

Did a couple test pieces of terrain for my urban table I'm planning.  In my mind they're a bit of fail as they have no purpose, but they only took about 15 minutes of work time to complete.

New Previews: Morvahna the Dawnshadow and Vyros, Incissar of the Dawnguard

Privateer let the horses out on the release previews today! We have Vyros, Incissar of the Dawnguard and Morvahna the Dawnshadow on their cavalry mounts. Morvahna was a bit of a surprise to be Light Cavalry, but I think that fits her playstyle well and the look and feel of the Circle Orboros army. Also, she looks regal on that skirovik mountain goat. I can't wait to paint her and her regular version at the same time.

Space Wolves

Painted up some Space Wolves for Adepticon; I'm going to be in 2 of the smaller events, Combat Patrol and the Sin of Alacrity.  Here are the first of my Grey Hunters squads.

Painted General Ossrum

Continuing the Mercenary warcasters, here's General Ossrum. He's a great model, full of character, and rather easy to paint. I'm happy how he came out because I was worried that the scheme I wanted for my Rhulic forces wouldn't look good and this one does. Very happy with that.
