The clattering of skeletal hooves

This was another fun video to shoot.  I used a Reaper skeleton cavalry figure.

It is a nice change from all the Tomb Kings horses, which were much less accurate with the anatomy.

Of course, glazing and tinting was a big part of it!  So, out came the Secret Weapon washes.

That's where things got interesting!

We end up with a pair of riders...

Giddy-up!

What you find in Lustria...

This is a display base that I made years ago for showing a variety of my Lizardman army units at Adepticon and Games Day.

It was made from cork and baked sculpey.  The designs were carved in after baking, and then painted.

If yuo check out the photos of the army board (Temple of Blood), you will see that this motif is repeated over and over again.

These designs are also repeated on many of the bases of the miniatures, and the movement trays as well.

This really is a very nice way to create a truly unique theme for your army, and have fun at the same time!

I think my Salamander units were displayed on this a few times.  I also have an even bigger version that was created for my Cold One riders.

Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?

As you can imagine, this post has a few images from the filming of the Painting Fur video.

That was also very fun!

I used some additional props this time :-)

I have done this with a number of the videos.  A 'visual aid' that showed how to paint fur at a size which would be much easier to see.  I could refer to it several times during the rest of the video.

Out come the Secret Weapon washes!!!

Some glazing and shading... establishing the darkest darks.

Time for some final details...

Just about done!

A healthy glow

Elementary, dear Watson.  No... that's elementals.  Here are a few shots of the Painting with Fluorescent paint video.  I used a Reaper spirit and fire demon as examples.

Recognize some of those lava colors?

Always trying to be sure to 'set the scene' with the colors that I will be using in that segment.

On to the ghost, and a different set of colors!

Feeling chilly? :-)

The Last Days of Pompeii

Do you know what this is?  Yes, it represents the last of the basing videos that I had to film a while back :-)

It was probably the most fun as well

There was not a lot of construction here... just painting!

I plan on doing entire armies on this kind of base... so look out!

I tried very herd to get in both bases, and I was able to figure something out...

There you go!

Out for a ride together...

Hey, now he's got a buddy!

With the colors established on the first bike, working on this one was certainly a bit easier.

I didn't have to test out any colors, just go right to the correct paints and get down to it!

I will post the individual pics of the second bike about this time tomorrow...

Zoom Zoom!!!

Here there be Demons

More from the week that would not end :-)  This time, it was painting the demon marble base, which was a lot of fun.

It is a tad bit easier to paint one base than hundreds of these for an entire army (I should know, since I have been doing that for the last few years!), but it is very satisfying.

Had some fun using the Secret Weapon washes on this one and the mosaic tile video!

Watch your step!!

Next to the sample base...
