Nice frogs. They can really be a pain to play against.

And a pain to play with. Two of my catchers died in the last game, one was blocked and the other tripped while leaping.

Absolutely the best Orc thrower model and the most definitive paint job I've ever had the pleasure to view... massively awesome sir!!!

Aw, shucks, thanks!

It was actually a relatively simple paint job, despite it being made difficult because of the mini being slightly smaller than usual (read: true 28mm or close to it).

And now, for something completely different:



A ganger by Heresy Miniatures.

Sat on the shelf for a couple of years and was finally object of some attention a couple of days ago. It started as a test to see if I could achieve some sort of iridescent effect and ended up as a nod to Grant Morrisson's "The Invisibles" with a quick reference to Alan Moore & Dave Gibbon's "Watchmen" (can you spot it?).

Quick tutorial for the iridescent effect... You'll need 1 acrylic silver paint (i used Vallejo Model Color Silver) and 4 acrylic inks: purple (i used the old GW ink), blue (Vallejo GMC), green (idem), yellow (idem). First layer is silver + purple, second layer was a drybrush of silver + blue, then silver + green, light drybrush & highlights with silver + yellow (*not* gold).

Comment: the priming was made using Vallejo grey spray primer. I am now convinced that it is a rather inferior product compared to Tamiya grey primer (fine) spray - rather than a smooth-ish surface, the Vallejo spray produces a rather noticeable texture.

Took another break from BB modelling & painting with the result being this:





Converted and painted for an online competition where everyone had to "sci-fi" Aenur, Sword of Twilight (Mordheim, GW).

Fantastic work!
