Wardancer

Ugh. By a overwhelming majority, derived from several different people, everyone wants to see the darn Wardancer. I have to say, I did not enjoy painting this, and it shows. The model looks silly, the clothing was a pain and the facial features where so ill-defined that...just...ugh. I probably will not be touching this model ever again, crappy paint or not.

The skin is Tallarn Flesh and then Elf Flesh. The rope/binding things are Chaos Black, Dessert Yellow, and a wash of Devlan Mud. The loincloth and breast cup things, as well as the spear are Graveyard Earth. The hair is Blood Red, the scraps of cloth are Warlock Purple, and the Blood is the usual mix, the same applies for the zombie's head.

Crypt Ghouls of Castle Grewyn

And here is the first Grave Ghoul I've painted. I used a 1:3 mix of Dwarf Flesh and Astronomicon Grey for the basecoat of the skin. The hair is Graveyard Earth, highlighted with Dessert Yellow. The Eyes are Hawk Turquoise, the skin highlights are Dwarf Flesh. The blood everywhere is a Scab Red basecoat, then a layer of Blood Red mixed in before the Scab Red had finished drying, and then a final wash of Baal Red. The talons and bones are Skull White, and the entire model is washed with Devlan Mud.

The base is painted Graveyard Earth, was then frocked with some static grass, which was covered again with Graveyard Earth. The tile/stone is made from cut up cardboard from the the Ghouls came in, then painted Astronomicon Grey, and washed with, you guessed it, Devlan Mud. Then the blood splatter was added, with the usual mix of Scab and Blood Reds.
Tomorrow I'll be posting either an Empire Warrior Priest or a Wood Elf Wardancer. Post a comment and I'll see which is most popular.

Derpo Complete, Undead, and Coastal Assault Empire

I've finished up Derpo, seen below, and the paints I used, in this order are:
Basecoat Tallarn Flesh, followed by Dwarf Flesh, then Devlan Mud. Highlights on the scars with full Dwarf Flesh. Hair and beard where FolkArt Pure Orange. The Axes where Graveyard Earth hafts, Dwarf Bronze for the metal, and now for the blood. I started with Scab Red, then applied Blood Red, then a wash of Baal Red.

And here is the first Undead I've done for Castle Grewyn. I used Skull White, then washed Devlan Mud over it for the bones, FolkArt Silver Stirling for all the metals, then washed them with Badab Black. The Robes are Scab Red. Taking a tip from White Dwarf number 369, I used Hawk Turquoise to make the skeleton look like he is filled with an arcane light. Also, the shield is Graveyard Earth with Badab Black in the crevasses, with a Scab Red symbols on it.

And here is the basic color scheme for my Empire army, basically Warlock Purple and Sunburst Yellow, more detailing when I've based the entire Coastal Assault force.

Derpo Goblinstrangler and the Return of Torpedo Vegas

Gentlemen, BEHOLD:

That is Derpo Goblinstrangler, the first ,model painted for my spectacular return B.C. games next month,, hope you are happy Ian.

Anyways, I've been swamped the past week, so sorry for the lack of any poss, and for the poor photo quality, I'm still looking for a new camera. Anyways, the tournament went average, for me anyway, with a 1-0-2 record, and placing 6th out of 8th overall.
More painting updates are to follow, as well as the PC's for South Walton Game Club's DEATHWATCH campaign.
