Being busy with the Cemetery Project and several commissions, it's been a long while since I last painted a miniature for my own pleasure. But after the Black Queen painting competition last month I got really inspired and I couldn't resist the urge. The result of one whole day of manic painting is this Ogre, whom I intended for the Fairy faction in Gardens of Hecate.

The 30mm resin miniature is produced by Mannikin Studios and it's based on an illustration by Arthur Rackham. |

I put him on a 30mm base. He's quite slim, but he stands more than a head taller than a human. |

The colour scheme is the same as with the other members of the Fairy faction. |

Apart from Black Queen, my club also organised an international Malifaux tournament the week after. I must say it was two great and busy weekends. I met new people, had a lot of fun. Won some prizes. :)

And this is the loot. I must point out that these came with prizes in form of
miniatures, supplies and store credit from the tournament's many
sponsors. |

Then my brother and I made a trip to the city of Prague for a few days. We saw lots of fantastic architecture and I had plenty of good beer. Sadly, we didn't get the chance to visit the famous Old Jewish Cemetery.

One very fancy lamp post. |
While I was traveling, a package arrived for me containing Renedra gravestones and MiniNatur ivy. The work on the graveyard terrain continues...
