I see that lots here have posted pics of other projects they are doing or have done before… Thought I’d share a table I did several years ago now that I’m still pretty proud of…
I went on a 9 month creative sprint several years ago to recreate a village based on the Village of Hommlet. I used these for several games way back when, both for D&D and Warhammer. Note: the pieces were done before 3D printing really was a thing; everything was done in balsa and plasticard, textures were done all by hand, and all were scratch built.
I went downstairs to where I keep my models and other fun goodies today and took some more pictures. This time, I figured it might be fun to share some of my other past Warhammer Fantasy projects, at least bits…
Bretonnians (by far one of the most difficult armies out there to paint if you go cray cray… Needless to say, we went cray cray… Some of those minis have over 50-60 hours on the small unit… Fancy, but I lost interest in doing these to the nines…)
Ogres (I still haven’t made up my mind about ogres… I have several more units I can do, but I haven’t found my mojo yet. I do know I’m not keen on painting 80 gnoblars… That sounds like work.)
High Elves and Wood Elves (Chorfs need someone to beat up… I have the bits. LOL I like the models for 6th-7th Ed. for both armies, but lack motivation. I did like this model once I finished her. She can stand in for the lot of pointy ears)
Ok, so, I’m in the middle of my Sneaky Gits and shuffling about in my drawers of other goodies and I ran into a Dwarf classic that for some reason was gathering dust. I’ve gotten the throne carriers done now, so thought I’d share these, as I am kind of keeping track of what gets finished around here… Thought I’d share… Throne carriers for Thorgrim Grudgebearer’s Throne of Grumpiness - the classic 4th Ed. model…
Figured since I was doing the King of the Western Dwarfs (the traitorous lot!) I’d repaint Helgar too. That way, King and Queen could both be targets of my Chorfs over time. I think she came out not so bad… Definitely an improvement from where she was when I painted her 20 years ago. Need to add her shield back again and she has a make over that isn’t aweful.
I have a rather large Dawi army I painted ages ago that is full of great models, now long lost to time. Over time, I hope to go back and catch them up to the 20th Century at least in terms of paint jobs. Not in any rush, but as things present themselves.
Well, I have some follow up to those pics, as I finished the King on throne. Thought everyone would enjoy seeing shots. BTW, trying to work on my post photography clean up… Be glad to hear any advice; I’ve decided I kinda suck at photography. LOL
