From Barks: Warriors of Middle Earth (192 points)

I acquired the most recent expansion for the excellent epic boardgame War of the Ring. These were a quick paint job that I'm happy with.

Dead Men of Dunharrow

Dunlendings

Giant Spiders

Corsairs of Umbar

Giant Eagles

Ents
There are eight of each, and the humans are 20mm and they're all similarly sized, so 48x4 = 192.

From Ray

Surprisingly I've not heard of the game. The figures do look pretty cool though. I do like the Dead men of Dunharrow, that's a great shade of Dead green!
192 points coming your way!

From Barks - Halfling Blood Bowl Team (113 points)

This is my Halfling Blood Bowl team, The Wild Flings, from Willy Miniatures. They are so full of character, and the faces were such fun to paint! I based the colours on the Cleveland Browns, inspired by a variant logo by Daniel Gold.

(I just realised the colours are also AHPC blog themed!)
The Wild Flings!















(This guy was my Epic Fail entry, not to be scored for this round)
To give them a sliver of hope, I got them some treemen in support. You can only get two on the team, but are also entitled to a star player, and then I had a fourth tree floating around so I thought I'd paint him (her?) up whilst I was on a roll.


This model is a solid hunk of white metal. Great fun to paint.






Another Halfling team staple is their Master Chef.



I'm taking this team to CanCon for the 23-25th Jan tournament, wish me luck!


Mr Barks that is an absolute ripper of a submission! I'm kind of lost for superlatives as there are just so many things to like about them. I've never heard of Willy Miniatures but I suspect I'll be looking through their catalogue as a consequence of seeing these fine fellows. I've very much taken by your colour scheme and the wonderful job you've done on their faces. I hope I get to see them on the table this weekend as I suspect they are even more amazing in the flesh.

The raw score is 103 points but I'm awarding another 10 points for the, um... "projectile" and his mate peering out of the back of the Treemen.
