Not Quite Dead

My wife suggested that she was maybe trying to elude a bull but I do suspect sarcasm.

It looks like that Gitara had no topic... yet.

This miniature was quite different from its artwork and my players were puzzled by this young lady dancing on the boardgame in odd circumstances... Anyway: here's mine:

I'm looking forward to admire yours.

Here's mine!

Here's a third barbarian for Garrek's Reaver: Saek:

It should be my last WH - Underworlds miniature for some time. I'm moving back to Conan.

And one more:

I kept the green silk gown from the Black Colossus novel, as most of you, but imagined that Natohk was still wearing a mask.

This is one of the miniatures I like the less in the game, but it was nevertheless fun to paint it in such an unusual green. Should pop out on the table.

Have you paint some of Shadespire, since you've got it, @pensareadaltro?

Here is the last warband I've painted : the Ironsoul Condemnors:

I never rebased anything, so I can't be of much help. Maybe @Roolz could give you some insight on how to rebase properly. 😉

I've never noticed that you rebase your miniatures prior to this one. Did you only rebase Atali or do you plan to rebase all of them, or only minis from Nordheim?

Well, thanks for your kind feedback, @Seaorgrudy!

Was that glazing or wet blending?

It was mostly wet blending, using a wet palette.

And it's done: the whole warband is now painted.

Time to move to another warband (maybe the Sigmarites from the Champion of Dreadfane box).

* blatantly ignoring the shrieks of rage from the unpainted squellies from Conan*

Now that the last goblins are painted, I'll move to the warband leader.

Looks great!

Thanks for sharing!

And a fourth miniature for this team:

Hi there!

The miniatures of Warhammer Underworlds come with nicely textured bases, as you can see on the following pic:

But if you're into adding bones and cranes to your custom bases, you can buy some online, for instance on Green Stuff World, or even at the webstore of Games Workshop. 😉

My holidays are reaching their end, but I still managed to finish this miniature, for the same warband:

Garrek's Reaver barbarians are currently waiting to be painted, because of the pandemy, as I only paint them with a friend. But I've started painting sessions with my son, and started for the occasion a new warband: the Hrothgorn Mantrappers.

The first two minis are now painted:

a wolf trap and a goblin holding crossbow bolts:

I'm not very fond of this miniature. Anyway, it looks better once painted:

Here's my paintjob a Conan miniature that I don't like really much. His helmet, weapons, and armour are kinda meh to me.

Besides, I'm not really happy with the way I painted his head. Anyway:

Neat character! It could be use in many games.

I guess this fellow must come from some unachieved story by REH, because I don't remember anything about him.

He was interesting to paint anyway, and I'm looking forward to see him ingame.

With the Thundrik Profiteers now fully painted, I've move on the Garrek's Reavers during my holidays. I'm currently painting them alongside a friend who's painting the Stormcast Eternal. It's really neat to chat with a pal while painting.

Here are standing the first two barbarians I've made: Targor & Karsus.

They look good.

I really like that proxy, although I'm not very fond of this mound she's on. Is it the same scale as Conan's miniatures?

Faces are always a tough part of the job. Even with a perfectly sculpted mini, the slightest move at the worse moment can ruin a lot of hard work.

I remember that I spent quite numerous tries on Hadrathus and 'classic' Belit heads with no luck, and I finally gave up. Well, one can't win every single battle, not even Conan. Furthermore, what's important is to win the war, and this is something you're very close to, I guess, seing how much new miniatures you've posted since the last time I've checked.

That guy was really something else!

It sounds like a miracle that there is a Pliny the Young!

Speaking about careless characters from the Antiquity, I was precisely reading something today about the way Pyrrho, the first sceptic used to live. That guy wouldn't have said there was an eruption ongoing, even neck deep in lava.

I was looking forward to paint my own general, and seeing @garbetsp's work gave me the impulse to finally prime it.

Here he is:
