Myphitic Blight-Hauler Unboxing

So three of these came in the post yesterday.

So lets look in the box

You get one sprue and the base

Here it is built

It's so cute





It went together pretty easily.  I glued mine although you don't have to, they're snap fit.  There's next to no possibility in it, although with a little work they could be altered.

They're also pretty big.
See



Now to build the other two. But in the meantime I'll wish you all a Merry Christmas (or whichever holiday you hold dear), and I'll be back hopefully in a few days with a painted Malifaux crew.

Bane Dark Knight Rises

I painted this guy up as a secret Santa present for one of my workmates.  The lady whom I got has a massive crush on Tom Hardy, so Bane is a logical choice.  Note that I wont be sharing this blog to my Facebook until after we've done the secret Santa exchange.

I've tried to keep him quite muted to reflect his grim mercenary persona.

Some More RPG minis

I've been at the Reaper Bones again.






Female Anti-paladin


I usually paint armour metallic colours, however I though she looked evil enough that red would be more appropriate.  I've offset this with purple cloth and pale skin.  I'm unsure whether or not to paint the eyes and teeth on the shield.  I might go back later and paint them, but for now she's done.



Female Rogue

Reaper call this min "strumpet", which is quite amusing.  She's obviously supposed to be a prostitute, but I think I'll use her as a rogue or spy.  I've painter dress in a similar way to Neferata (see here Neferata) but maybe not as nice, the strumpet has less detail.

Female Gnome Druid
I decided to give her pink hair, she's a gnome it might be a natural colour for them.  I've also gone with greens and yellow for the armour.

Griffin
I've had this thing for ages.  I have to admit it was really fun to paint.  It's got more detail than it looks.  I mostly drybrushed it to pick out the incredibly subtle details.

Ratkin Shocktroops for Kings of War

I've rebased my Skaven Stormvermin for use in King's of War as Ratkin Shocktroops.  Stormvermin in Warhammer Fantasy were a bit shit.  Mine spent most of their time running away, some elite troops those.  In Kings of War shocktroops are rock sold.  They have the elite, vicious and crushing strength (1) rules, which means they add 1 to their damage rules and reroll rolls of 1 to hit and wound.  They actually feel like elite troops.  I need more.

On to the pictures.

Now which unit should I Kings of Warify next?
