sewers.of.estark’s armies & warbands

[sewers.of.estark]

excellent.
i'm especially impressed with the dwarf's horned helmet.

Thank you twisted moon, I appreciate it greatly! And I’m still surprised they turned out half decent on my first attempt!

A bit more progress made on the leadpile-

Minifigs? Historical,


And another test model, this time for my Nightmare Legion, the unit will round out the Tomb King army until I get ahold of a few chariots.

Nice work with the horse and assassin looking guy. The dappling is a great choice. And I love the vibrant blue stripes on the skeleton's equipment. Great stuff!

good work.
that's a striking member of the nightmare legion.

Thanks symphonicpoet, glad you like them
I didn’t intend to end up with an army of assassin types, but using a scheme opposite of the skeletons was a must, and so here we are!

good work.

Thank you twisted moon! The palette I had chosen for the undead is definitely quite garish!

 

[sewers.of.estark]

Decided to break up the stripes with a side project - I had some snotlings knocking around and wanted a unit of “savage goblins” to join forces with my savage orc army. They were good fun to paint, I’ll have to pick up a few more to make up an actual unit!

I don't know if it's humanly possible not to like snotlings. Such expressive and whacky little critters. Love 'em and love the ones you've painted.

 

[Slave to Darkness]

Loved Snotlings since I first read about them, my favourite type of greenskin.

Love his facial expression, he looks like he's seen some things.

 

[twisted moon]

the horror! the horror!
nice work on the snotlings.

 

[sewers.of.estark]

Cheers to everyone for the kind comments and snotling love.
I was wanting to include a moon worshiping, mushroom fanatic/paladin type among the ranks of snotlings and luckily I had the BC7 Moon Duke in the leadpile.

This is also an introduction to a new photo board, really just a 12x12 board that was textured, painted, flocked and stuck in a similarly sized light box.

More to come; and as always thank you for looking

Very colourful!
What do you use to take the pictures?

 

[Slave to Darkness]

I had that Moon headed chap when I was a kid, never painted him though. Love the bright yellow on yours.

Thank you! Still working on my photo process, but this time around I used my phone camera. Edited the “highlights” to -100 and added a vignette.

Hopefully you come across yours, never enough painted examples of these guys out there!

 

[twisted moon]

looks as though he'll make a fine squire for the snotlings.

Thank you Twisted Moon!

As inspiration ebbs and flows I wanted to start work on some figures I’ve had in the collection for a while.

Overall I’m really happy with the flesh/bone I ended up with but not sure about the blue/purple skin tone. Hoping to hear your opinions before he is sealed & flocked.
I’ve got a few dozen of the figures from this Asgard set that I plan to use as a small force of Tyranids, I’m sure they will also find a home as cosmic monsters in a gothic horror setting since I’m not much of a 40k player.

Cheers!

Which Asgard beastie is that?
Looks great as a Tyranid!

Oh found it! https://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Large_Sadistic_Demons

These are great little Giger-esque minis!

 

[sewers.of.estark]

Yes! Glad you were able to find them, sorry I didn’t provide more info in my initial post!
I’ll be doing a more in depth post once he is finished up.
I got a good handful of the set in old lead and ended up ordering another full set from alternative armies, they should still have them available for anyone interested in them!
