2020 stragglers finished

Here's some models I've finished after christmas. Now my table is empty of half-painted figures and I can start on new stuff!

Heinrich Kemmler and Krell

 

Some test Russians for my Finnish War 1808 28mm project

Nazgob the shaman. This had been on my desk for a long time!

The remaining members of the Fellowship of the Ring. Now I have the full set.

Cue the Howard Shore "Fellowship of the Ring fanfare"

 

 

 

Throwback: My Vampire Counts ca. 1999-2001

I decided to dust off some old figures that haven't seen the light of day in a while. Apart from using some of the undead in Warhammer Quest games these haven't seen the outside of their case since maybe 2005 or so.

This was the first army I painted to completion. I started doing these after getting rid of my first orc army in the 90's. It was still fifth edition and I started doing this for the first vampire counts book in about 1999 and finished maybe 2001 for sixth. The painting is suitably crude, especially the bases, but they're still usable. I remember being a fan of Romero movies back then and it definitely shows in the zombies. I remember having a blast painting them.

This army used to have a grave guard unit with halberds but someone paid me silly "rare-money" for those so I gave them up.

Some "oldhammer" undead

My first finished models for the year and it's already March! *tries to remember it's not a second job but a hobby that should not stress you out*

Along with old Marauder and Citadel Orcs, a bunch of old Undead models have found their way into my lead pile. I delt the urge to do at least some of them so here's 15 skeletons and some spooks. The Skeletons are a mix of old Nightmare Legion models and some other old skeletons, the ethereals consist of two ghosts and two barrow wights. Nice models all in all. Reader Samuli S commented that I should try some different backdrops for my photos, so I did. How's it look?

The next batch of models will be some additional 20mm WW2 Germans to give me some support options for Chain of Command.
