Another Batch of Miniatures

Man, I see that there are followers on the old blog here, but am I the only one still actively posting these days? Sorry for the lack of white background or anything but with the way things are heading here, I figure fire and forget right? In the back row, we have the Reaper dragonmen set. I picked it up at Gen Con and got the freebie code. Good deal there. That guy in the back is on a small integral base and I threw him on a 25 x 25 and it's still too small.

Next row, from left to right: Plastic Empire guy with cannonball. He's from one of the old boxed sets from many moons ago. One Ral Partha, scarecrow. Two ladies from the Mega Mini line. Another Ral Partha Scarecrow and a Reaper spellcaster.

Next row, a Rafm skeleton, a reaper orc, who I painted dark green before decided that with the others I'd go black as I already posted, and a tiger of drizt from confrontation. I've had him since the figures were metal, before the plastic and before the collapse.

Last guy up front is one of the ringwraiths from the Lord of the Rings miniature wargame.

So enough about me, let's see some of the other figs out ther eh?

Games Workshop, Rattrap Miniatures, Reaper Miniatures

To the left we have a member of the Overlord faction for Reaper's Warlord game. In the center, are two Mongolian Death Worms from Rattrap and to the right, one of the heroes from the Lord of the Rings miniature game from Games workshop.

The base on the Overlord member is done with Sepukku Models. Unlike some of the other bases I've made using their molds, this one didn't have a lot of air bubbles and took the impression fairly well I thought. The base on the elf was done with Army painter rubble, highlighted with an old Iron Winds leather, and then Iron Winds leather and white and give a tuft of swamp grass.

I love the idea of the Mongolian Death worms and even wrote a little about them in my own blog. anyone know if they have any game stats? Acid and electricity? Alright! The only thing that's a little sad about the whole thing is the price. Rattrap is selling them for $14 now. When they first went to Games Plus as new figures, they were $10 but I picked them up for $7.50 and it was buy three get one free. To see them at $14 now, almost a 50% increase tells me that material cost are way up and I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing these in resin or another material in the near future.

Anyway, that's enough blathering from one mad man. Let's start seeing what everyone else is up to eh?

Reaper Orc Reven and Mega Mini Cleric

Another batch of Reaper Orc Reven.  This time I tested out some Penzer Acer colors I recently got from Miniature Market. They had the whole line of 48 for $62.

The little guy on the left is another Mega Miniature. I painted him up in the colors of the Monks of War off the cover with the black and white going on.

Total: 29

Reaper and Rackham

The fellow on the left is a fighter from Reaper miniatures with scale mail armor and a huge sword in one hand. The one on the right is the second of a three man knight set for Rackham Templars that I have. Still have one more to paint up. The Rackham dude is so old that they don't even make him anymore. Heck, they haven't made him in metal in a while and now the plastic versions are gone too.

While the knight may look slightly taller, note that he's on an actual base that gives him a height advantage eh?

Reaper: 1
Rackham: 1
Total: 9

Dream Pod 9: Blastfurnance Gardian Armor

That should probably be Guardian but hey, DP9 misspelled it first on the blister.

Guy is like a 'giant' suit but scale doesnt' come across as he's not much larger than the previous mini. More of a 'theme' thing. Kindal ooks like a mecha Santa with that goofy beard. I could probably do some touch ups on him but done is done eh?

Dream Pod 9: 2

Total: 7

Dream Pod 9 Brute Coalsuit

Another figure I've had for years and was just tired of looking at. The base is a Micro Studio base. The base paint is P3 line with some MIG stuff thrown on top of it.

Dream Pod 9: 1

Total: 6

Mega-Mini Minotaur, Iron Wind Efretti

The minotaur to the left is from Mega-Minis. He comes in the beastman pack. the base is from Secret Weapon. The figure on the right I believe is some type of efretti and is from Ral-Partha (or at least that's what the stamping on the bottom of the original base says.).

The minotaur is quite large. Where his shouldplate begins is where the head of the last minotaur I phot'd stops. Goofy looking? Yes. Huge? Yup.

Mega-Minis: 1
Ral Partha: 1
Total: 5

I-Kore/Celtos Fomorian Shaman

This is another sucker I figured I could bang out in a day. Despite the tons of gold rings, bracelets, anklets, facial piercings and other bits, he's really pretty simple. Body, familiar, skirt, backside has an animal hide, and the staff with goblin sacrifice on it.

Privateer Press: 1
I-Kore: 1
Crocodille Games: 1
Total: 3

Good start to the year but that's because of the holiday. That will be quickly ending I'm assuming real soon.

The Scribbler by Crocodille Miniatures

This is the Scribbler, a villain in the first advneture path by Paizo, Rise of the Runelords. It was originally created by Crodille Games. I went with my own paint scheme based slightly off of the art. Looking at the official figure paint job, I can see I missed several things but oh well, ain't going back now. I have another one so I'll do that one up in the 'studio' colors.

Privateer Press: 1
