Seems is has been awhile since I posted something in a more or less finished state... Vacation means time away from home and from the paint desk! The latest concluded piece (minus basing, for this BB team I'm leaving it for last) was the chaos dwarf star player, Hthark the Unstoppable:

And a couple of extra shots of the stabby-stabby hobgoblin star player:

Holy Windsor & Newtons, Batman! A painting update! :shock:

Image
Six hobgoblins for my W.I.P. chaos dwarf Blood Bowl team.

Gruznak Stomponatto (friends call him "Stompy") is the resident fouler for the Allied Forges chaos dwarf team. With a long and unremarkable career spent mostly on the reserves bench, he is called on to the pitch only when the squad goes below full numbers (rare) or when there is need for someone expendable to put the boot in.
Seen here a few seconds after performing the "Mussolini Headkick", his signature fouling move.

5 1/2 weeks or so after the last update, 6 models in a row means that (technically and discounting a few weeks away on vacation) I am still averaging one weekly model. Coming up next: either a couple of bull centaurs or a secret project of sorts that wormed its way into the painting queue...

Project list for 2016:
- Heresy Witch by Paul Muller [primed and a couple of skin layers]
- Orc From Bilbao black orc coach [50%]

Much grassy-ass and I'm guessing you'll be seeing them "live" on the 9th... Plus a couple of bull centaurs and a female chaos dorf (which went into the solvent bath today because of sucky colour-scheme...).

Thanks! The "light blue" as you call it, is Vallejo Model Color Verdigris Glaze (probably equivalent to GW's Nihailak Oxide) over a coat of bone colour and a couple of white highlights. :)

Coat? Highlight? Glaze?
What are you talking about? :wink:

No, really, I feel lucky if I get some paint on the right spot...
Highlighting... HA! :orc:

Or just use Vallejo Game Colour Verdigris paint. Less luminous, though. ;-)

Currently somewhat fed up with painting BB miniatures, I went for something a little bit different to detox:

Also working on a Kev Adams goblin wizard to a rather specific paint scheme and standard:
