Unboxing The Hobbit Escape from Goblin Town

Here's a look at the new Hobbit boxed set and its contents. I'm not as much of a fan of the true scale mini's, but the set is quite nice. It'll be interesting to paint these guys up and have a go at the game. Any suggestions about which ones to start with? comments please.

Video after the break..

Deathwing Termintaors WIP 2

I've had a hard time getting to my painting table on a regular basis, so these guys are taking longer than expected. The layer of redoing the white armour was quite slow, almost an hour each guy. Now that its done things should pick up an one more sitting should finish these guys off. I really like the warm colour of the armour, so I think its worth it.

Realm Of Battle

Another project... this just arrived today. I ordered the Realm of Battle modular game board so that I could have a nice table that can be put away. I like the idea of something more durable than a table made out of MDF and I haven't come up with a reliable way of making hills that will match up as nicely as this bad boy.

I've got to get it all painted before Christmas, and I've got a bunch of scenery I'd like to get done for then as well. Hopefully I'm able to get that done along with all my other projects. I'll be sure to post pics as I go and a video of the process once I'm done.

Deathwing Terminators WIP

Here's the latest in the Dark Vengeance series... the Deathwing Terminators. I've got to finish this stuff up soon because I have a lot of stuff to get done before Christmas and have also ordered the Hobbit game.

New Hobby area, just like the old one

Is been a bunch of long months of transition making do without the painting set up that I usually have, but I'm happy to say that its been revived. Here's a pic of my desk as it stands... some modifications are still to come, but I'm back in business.

Chaos Cultists Finished

Here's the finished first batch of Chaos Cultists from the Dark Vengeance set. I did these guys pretty quickly as they are going to be a fodder unit not lasting very long on the table. Pretty simple paint scheme using a base, wash and then highlighting with the base colour. Paint list shown at the bottom of the post.

Oh, and someone over on youtube pointed out I painted the Sergent's mask skin colour. I didn't realize it was a mask, so I'll have to go back and fix that.

Chaos Cultists WIP

Here are some work in progress pics of the Chaos Cultists from Dark Vengeance. I'm doing these guys up quick with a base, wash and highlight method. The highlight on the cloaks will be the same as the base to make it a bit more muted.
