Blood Mistresses -- Dark Age Games


After testing out some Lord of the Rings Armies today, I am switching gears a bit to post a few images of some Dark Age minis.  There are lots of new figures that are coming, so in the coming months you will be seeing more of them!

These ladeis are from the Skarrd faction, called Blood Mistresses.  If you click on the image, you will get a larger view (yes, photobucket is still messed up ) :-(

Here they are:




And a group shot:

Cold Pewter on Ice: A new Impact Miniatures game

Here are a few images of some great miniatures that are part of an upcoming miniature based hockey game from Impact Miniatures!  I am sure you can get more details from their website.  My job is painting. :-)

There are four figures in all, shown here in raw form:

The goalie is really old school!

I am painting the masters for them, and here are some work in progress images.  First, I cut down the sprues so that I could create an ice sheet base for them.


Then it was time to attach all the sticks.  A few pins and some liquid green stuff, and they were ready to go!



Now they are positioned on their bases:



They are now primed, and ready for painting!!!




Stay tuned!

PS-- my apologies for this different format to the images.  Photobucket has still not solved the problems, so I am stuck with this for now.  My apologies!


The other Redeemer...

At long last, here are the pictures of the second Grey Knights Redeemer.

Vehicles like these do provide a nice canvas for freehand, so I thought I would take advantage of that once again. :-)

Some of the Forgeworld conversion bits were not the easiest to work with, but in the end they did look very neat.

My favorite part was the cowlings on the inferno cannons, however.  Painting in that horizon line was a lot of fun!  I had wanted to do that for years, but the surface was never quite right...

These top views show you how different this freehand was from the first Redeemer.  The triptychs were a little tricky to squeeze in , but I am glad I did so!
