Frostgrave Ghouls

Old Games Workshop Ghouls

 

Ghoul Queen from Reaper


 

A day out at the PARTIZAN wargames show...

Diskworld witch racing (a bit like "Formula D"... but with witches on broomsticks!)

Some interesting terrain - I liked the red netting lava!

Peg Wars! - Colonial era wargames with painted wooden dolly pegs!

More peg wars...

Frostgrave demo table from North Star games...

Lots of demonstration games...

Slightly bemused daughter...

Some nice scenery...

More nice scenery...

Very impressive Scenery...

Some very impressive scenery indeed!

Looking down the length of the hall...

My daughter and I went for a day out to the Partizan Wargames Show at Newark Showground today. There were participation games, demo games, and lots of interesting stalls and things to see. I picked up some supplies: paints, brushes, mdf bases, some scenery bits & magnets.... my daughter got some interesting dice for her collection, and we tried out a couple of games -  A sci-fi Skirmish game from Mantic called WARPATH... which seemed quite simple - didn't really grab me, but they simplified the rules for the demo apparently... my daughter really enjoyed the Diskworld Witch racing game ( a twist on a "Formula D" style racing game) which was fun. Some really impressive models, and scenery to be seen, and inspirational paint jobs on some lovely figures. An hours drive from our house, but definitely worth the trip!

FROSTGRAVE - Some Demons and a Giant Worm...

Major Demon

Minor Demon and Imps

 

Giant Worm

 

 

I'm steadily working my way through my box of Monsters for Frostgrave... This bunch were very enjoyable to paint... Major and Minor Demons plus some Imps.... and a Giant Worm. All from the budget range of Reaper Bones miniatures...

Dungeon Saga - Skeleton Warriors...

 

 

I went for muted colours with the skeletons - a final dry brush of ash grey on all the clothing for a bit of a dusty look...

.......

Heroes update... I decided to go for black edges around the base... looks much better I think!

 

Shadows of Brimstone - Metallic Fiends!

Guardian of Targa

Custodians of Targa

Harvesters From Beyond

These were all pretty quick to paint... I started from a matt black undercoat... drybrushed 50/50 mix of silver and black... gave a wash of "skin wash" ink... highlighted up with silver straight from the pot... then added a bit more skin wash into any recesses and grooves to give a bit of a rusty effect... This is also how I do armour on fantasy miniatures - I felt it would give a similar weathered effect for ancient robots that have been roaming the void for Eons...

Dungeon Saga - Heroes

I recently got hold of a copy of DUNGEON SAGA... the dungeon crawl adventure boardgame from Mantic Games. (Someone from my boardgames group was selling his unplayed kickstarter copy with lots of extras off for cheap - so I snapped it up!)... I've just finished painting the four main heroes from the base set... not sure if to leave the bases like this - I think I may give them a black edge...

Shadows of Brimstone... more monsters

Night Terrors

Trun Hunters
