Haven't made any "photographeable" progress in BB stuff since my last post (read: quite a bit of progress but everything is still w.i.p.) however, here are a couple of recently finished pieces:

This wraith from Otherworld miniatures was painted shortly after the squig-riding goblin war shaman above and was a quick paintjob just to test an idea of using neon paints to do ethereals. Then i figured it might as well get a bit more of atention and worked on the blade and a display base.

Ikit Claw, Chief Warlock Engineer of Clan Skryke was a project for an online comunity showcase in November (the month's theme was "vermin").

Currently in the workbench:
- GW classic/vintage Corum Jhaelen Irsei miniature by Jes Goodwin (this is my December "vignette" display project)
- Slann team (painted the medic, added an assistant coach, huge progress on the scenic display tray, 2/5 line frogs halfway done)
- Female dwarf team (still)
- Galactic Bastard limited edition mini
- Orc From Bilbao BB referee "Joker"
- stuff

very nice job! quick question... from what I have seen, it looks like those minis come with molded metal bases. I assume you removed those bases and not that the minis themselves have changed... was it hard to remove them? I have actually considered picking up this team for comic relief in some of our games. :)
