Showcase – Black Gate Miniatures 10mm fantasy ogres

This is a surprise follow-up to the 10mm fantasy ogre Kickstarter feature I did a couple weeks ago about Black Gate Miniatures. After posting the article, the guys behind the project contacted me and offered to send me some sample miniatures. It was short before the end of the project, especially with UK > Canada shipping, but why not! Continue reading “Showcase – Black Gate Miniatures 10mm fantasy ogres”

Showcase – Butchers’ starter

Last year, I discovered the game Guild Ball by Steamforged Games, and since then, it has become the center of my gaming time.  I’m slowly painting the models, pushing them a bit more than I would usually do for play pieces, as the game requires only 6.

Here is my Butcher Guild starter. I chose to use only a little bit of red compared to the official scheme, only painting a single accessory in that colour per model, and blood effect, of course!

Showcase – Lylyth, Reckoning of Everblight

You’ve already seen the making of the base some weeks ago, but the model that goes on it is finally done.

Showcase – Mandragora

I recently made an unboxing of what I got in the latest Endless: Fantasy Tactics  Kickstarter by On The Lamb Games. In that post, I said that I wanted to paint the Mandragora as soon as possible,  because of my love of the model.

Well, it’s now done, and what a cool model it was to paint!  I’m now wondering if I shouldn’t order a couple more of it to try out different colour schemes, with all the fun I had painting it. 🙂

Showcase – Baron Celcius Von Fahrenheit

My most recent painting project was bit out of left field; for the first time, I painted a miniature representation of someone I knew in the flesh.  The model in question is that of Baron Celcius Von Fahrenheit, from RAFM Miniatures. That miniature was created after a steampunk cosplay contest, where the winner got is personna transformed in a 28mm scale version of itself.

The friend in question is the steampunk cosplayer Alexandre Adam, who is behind the character of Baron Celcius Von Fahrenheit. He is also the guy behind the Youtube channel Kinetoscope Parlour, where he meets “strange and wonderful people”, coming from the steampunk subculture or other completely different way of being strange.
