LVII. Miscellaneous

Speedpainted another three Troglodyte workers:

Just three more will make ten, and that's where I'll stop. This is he filthy horde so far:

Little by little I cleaned up and assembled another Citadel Wood kit. On the first tree I tried out a new colour scheme. What do you think? It's still a work in progress; I add a bit to the paintjob whenever I feel inspired.

Now let's take just a tiny peek at what's a bit further up the pipeline, shall we?

A small pile of metal has acumulated-  miniatures waiting for their turn at the painting desk:

I have two brand new factions more or less planned out, and a number of mercenaries as well. One of those two factions will get a feature post shortly, as soon as all the members come in through the post.

And in the end, a couple of recent discoveries I'd like to share with you. 

First: Paints, Pencils and Plastics, a blog by Jordan Lee. It started recently, and Jordan and his friend are working on a project a lot like Spiky Rat Pack's Punk Moth, only set in the Old World rather than the 40K universe. In his own words:

"With Project Morrslieb, we hope to create a grand experience set within the dark underbelly of the Old World of Warhammer Fantasy. Using custom rules based upon the Mordheim ruleset, converted models from the Games Workshop range and a board of our own designing we will construct a story that will chill the blood and be all round delightful to play {Insert evil chuckle here}."

I find that it has a lot of potential and I've been following his progress from the very beginning. : )

The other discovery was Mannikin Studios, a miniature company that makes resin miniatures based on Arthur Rackham's artwork. They are beautiful sculpts, and even more awesome if you're a fan of A. Rackham's work. I ordered one already and I'll do a short review when it arrives.
