Despite it all, I have been painting. I'm offering some samples and there are still more to add... which I'll do shortly.
First off, some things that are singular or odd:
 |
A kit-bashed deamon. Wood sprite head, WWII German arms and armament, and the torso and legs from an ACW Zouave. This guy can't make up his mind! |
 |
| A rather nice female gun slinger with a long Winchester. |
 |
A female zombie Apocalypse survivor with dynamite, an AK47, and a Toronto Blue Jays cap. (I painted this during the World Series of Baseball.) |
 |
10mm Late Roman/Early Byzantine legion for Warmaster |
 |
| A closer view of the 10mm troops |
 |
| "I got a fever! And the only cure is... more cowbell!" |
Now Pulp Era/'20's Gangster figs: |
From Bob Murch's train crew... a hammer wielding conductor (I'm reminded of Earnest Borgnine in The Emperor of the North) |
 |
| "Crash" Callahan & Fred deeply involved in daring-do! |
 |
| An intrepid Camera woman |
 |
The Gumshoe "What's it to you, Flatfoot?" |
 |
| Newsboy... "Read all about it! Man bites dog!" |
 |
Another photographer working for that great metropolitan newspaper. |
 |
| More of Bob Murch's train crew. |
 |
Constables of the Royal Irish Constabulary assisting the Black and Tans at some action. {These are part of a larger project I'll show later.} |
D&D and like that: |
| Barrels that are just barrels and a chest that is SO much more! |
 |
A gnome/Tommyknocker returning from the coleslaw mine. |
 |
| A buccaneer turtle with his very own cannon. |
 |
From Wargames Atlantic's towns folk range... the butcher. ("Youse want fries wit' dat?") |
A Bob Murch special: |
"Saucerman" "Keep watching the skies!" |
Lastly (for now), The Silver Bayonet figures (I'm having so much fun painting them!)Clergy, etc.
 |
A member of an order of Canons Regular on monster hunting duties |
 |
| A Roman Catholic cardinal-archbishop with mallet and torch |
 |
A Great Schema Orthodox heiromonk with censer (Wargames Atlantic 3D print - a really nice model) |
 |
| The Monsignor, ready to hunt |
 |
| An Orthodox banner bearer |
 |
| Another Orthodox priest |
 |
| A Roman Catholic priest looking wary. |
Monsters, etc. |
| A demon or gargoyle |
 |
| His cousin or other close relative |
 |
I wondered if all the undead had to be Europeans. The Void answered "No" so I did up this unfortunate First Nations warrior with someone's hatchet in his chest. |
 |
More First Nations zombies One has a rifle-stock tomahawk while the other is using somebody else's arm as a weapon. |
 |
| Some Viking undead ("draugar" or so my son tells me.) |
More... |
A project done for Beth: First Nations warriors in colder weather gear |
 |
| Beth had had these figs for a while and asked me to finish them. |
 |
| Lots of natural colours and lots of fun to paint. |
 |
Two Nizam-i-Cedit Turkish troops More Wargames Atlantic 3d prints |
 |
Nizam-i-Cedit marching, loading, and firing An attempt to modernize the Ottoman Turk army in the early 1800's, they were disbanded at the insistence of conservative factions and then slaughtered by the Janissaries. |
 |
| Beaver and rabbit... maybe an idea for a cartoon? |
 |
| First Nations Warriors in warmer weather |
 |
A Soothsayer from Wargames Atlantic's market civilian box |
finally, some photos of the Hut of the Baba Yaga, finished by Beth with feet courtesy of Ralph and his 3D printer; |
"The Little Hut on Chicken's Legs" as Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition called it. |
 |
| the larger hut |
 |
| The smaller hut... more of a summer place. |
I have more figs to show since I've been away from blogging for so long, but they'll have to wait.Thanks for stopping by!
