Eldar you kidding me?

 

More old lead today: Eldar this time! 

Bring out yer lead

 

Q: How long can you keep old lead before repainting it?

Chukka 'Nother Log On the Fire

This Naughty List assignment should have been an easy swing for me: rebase a couple of war machines.

But most of my painting time this week has been eaten up by travel, so this turned into a very close-run thing.

Painting by the seat of my pants.

Of course, no-one forced me to add a couple of bullies to the mix. That was my own silly fault.

The Trollpuddle Martyr

Another quick-fix job from the dawn of time.

Festive Balls

On the sixteenth day of Advent the WoffBoot brought to me ... a door with a lovely set of knockers.

Feel free to play the Benny Hill theme in your head.

But these are no ordinary balls. These balls have Night Goblins on the end of them.

Ten Thunderers Thundering

On the tenth day of Advent, the WoffBoot brought to me ... Ten Gunners Gunning!

Shoot friend, and enter.

The last time we saw these gun-toting dwarves, they were being alternately crushed by squigs, fanatics or chariots. After that, I felt I owed them a new banner and a repaint.

Just A Whole Lotta Goblins

With all the wizards and warlords filling up my goblin ranks, I felt the need to add some more Core troops.

Settle in, there's 36 more to go...

I finally geared myself up to repaint and rebase these lovelies.

The Little Waaagh! That Could

One good thing about having a cluttered painting table - everything seems to get finished at once!

Especially if you're basically just rebasing them

Time to conjure up some Shamans!

Steppe By Steppe

Why have a goblin wolf rider, when you could have a hobgoblin wolf rider? And why have any old hobgoblins, when you can have a Dogs of War regiment?

Let slip the Hobs of war!

Gor Blimey!

Is it me, or have we been overwhelmed with Gor recently? Well, they are core, so here's some more. Some more core Gor.

My first 'horde-level' post, painting like a Kraken!

Luke! We're going to have company!

X-Wing seems to me like an excellent game. There's just one thing about it, just one tiny niggle, that I can't get my head around.

Pre-painted miniatures.

Christmas Leftovers

Christmas is over, so let's pick at this carcass for a few days more.

The state of my turkey by Day 3

Time for the leftovers!

Festive Cheers!

Don't worry, this is an automated post. At the time of publishing, I am scrabbling to find some AA batteries for a Thomas the Tank Engine, at a speed that will not satisfy a Christmas-infused toddler.

Cheers!

But it seemed a good time to rebase a mythic jolly figure with a long white beard and a generous spirit!

A-Waywatcher In A Manger

As we creak open another chest, please be assured that my takeover of this Advent will be short-lived, and Kraken's getting back the reins soon.

Pro tip: when you search for 'big chest' on Google, keep the Family Filter on.

But for now... Waywatchers!

Stikka Album

... or are Stikkas meant to be archers? Well, for the purpose of a good pun, let's assume goblin spears are the ones they call 'Stikkas'

You find a good pun, you Stikk to it.

This is the second of my Night Goblin originals. They served me well for many 6th Ed battles, but as with the archers, the time has come to repaint them.

It Was A Rock... Lobba!

... and if that's got you humming the B-52s, then get yourself off and have a quick boogie. It's fine, I'll wait.

Ski-doo-be-dop!

It's A Long Way From Gorkamorka

Having painted up a Wyvern rider for our recent battle report, I figured I needed a Warboss on foot model (in the *unlikely* chance that the wyvern would get shot out from underneath him).

I mean, what are the odds of that happening?

Oddgit and Upchuck

So we SkypeBooted last week (battle report impending) and lending Kraken my greenskin army meant I was forced to hasten, not just the wyvern warboss, but also a couple of other extra models. Starting with two night goblin shaman:

In the end, he only fielded one of them: a cruel trick to make me paint faster.

Caution: Do Not Keep In Glass Houses

After I rebased one Dwarf war machine, the chance to do another seemed just a stone's throw away.

The Great Rock of Grudges

Ready, Aim, ... Fulminate!

It's been a long time coming, but Dwarf Flame Cannons are now awesome!

Flame On, bitches.
