[Archive] Bolg's Blog of other stuff on a butget... (pic heavy)

Glimpse the Void:

Very impressive! I’m a budget hobbyist myself, and I take a lot of inspiration from work as well done as this. I especially like the scratch built chariot and the pump wagons (which have gotten ludicrous in 8th edition).

Bolg:

@Bas Oeh, thats a good plan. I might build a small round wooden swimming pool wit a gobbo in a tube to go along! (But first I need to finish the rest ol the army)

@Waster Rider: Thanx! It looks really good if you put all the forest gobbos and savage orcs together on the table (:

@Glimpse. Thanx. the building of warmachines is a lot of fun. so its nice to hear I inspire others (: I would love to build more pumpwagons but I have 3 old ones.

Next project will be a Gobbo Rock lobba inspired by the trebuchet I recently build (:

Bolg:

Savage orcs are comming along nicely. only 10 more to go.



good pictures soon.

AGPO:

Wow, I love the scratch buils, and the older O&G models are really characterful. Just for the record, it’s ‘4th’ and not ‘4rd,’ you’re thinking of ‘3rd.’ Not meant as a dig just a tip as I’m learning a couple of languages and know how easy it is to let little things like that slip. Keep up the good work.

Bolg:

@Agpo: Thanx and Thanx, i’ve been doing that wrong for so long, thanx for correcting me (:

I’m a sucker for 4th ed. models (:

Bolg:

Finally new foto’s have been busy painting playing going a way and fixing my internet. but now 2400 points of O&G are finished (:

This huge Rocklobber I did not build for line of sight, I actually started working on it +/- 10 years ago. I just never got around finishing it. and now I was on a deadline and had not enough time to build a complete new one.


My Orc Lord from the warhammer quest set. great moddel!


and some more black orcs (and orcs that will go with my BO unit)


oh and my new Savage Orc BSB. dont you just love those Ogre banners (:

Bolg:

I want at least one horde of squigs… But the beast are quite expensive (and I’m always low on cash).

But recently I’ve discovered the wonders of sculpting and I’m trying to learn more tricks.

So here are a few work in progress pics of smilies I got for free at my local supermarket being transformed into what I hope to be squigs…





Its a fun learning process (:

Xander:

Love the war machines and the squigs! Great stuff, Bolg!

bas_2312:

nitroglysarine:

awesome find on the smilers, might pinch that idea if I can find some to buy, any online I wonder :~

Bolg:

Thanx guys (:

@Nitroglysarine: I dont think you really need the smilies, any round shaped (marble) thingy would do.

[edit]
Damn this is soo addictive! I love working with greenstuff. But It takes so long to dry, every time I have to wait I start on something new. Here an impression of all that I’m working on at the moment:

(well actually there is a bit more but it didnt fit the picture)

Work is suffering at the moment d:

@Nitroglysarine jup, you dont need the smilies, I’ve cut of some of their legs and started working on scratch-build feet and that looks a lot better.

Bolg:

New squigh update, just because I love to make all those wip pictures (:



(and now I probably also have to make one with an open mouth to go with the team… interesting challenge.)

Bolg
Wales, we are glued to the west side of England in the UK

Bolg:

@Nitroglysarine If you pay the shipping I’m more than happy to send you the lest over feet-shaped thingies.

@Loki: Thanx (: But its not as difficult as you might think, it just takes a lot of patience. I havent worked with GS before last Golden Hat. so Give it a try.

So here are more updates a few ad-ons later:




Bassman:

Cool squigs. It’s also nice to see a lot of bunnies! :smiley:

Bolg:

Thanx dude (:
