Frostgrave wizards

It's been nearly a month since my last post but I've been busy with painting in amongst the daily routines.
The laptops fan has virtually died and it means only a little time can be spent on it before it gets hot and starts to make an awful noise - so It'll be the tablet now with it's not so hot camera.

I have these Northstar Sigilist and Apprentice painted up for a couple of weeks now but didn't get around to taking their pics. Lovely models to paint and I was quiet happy with the result.

I'm painting up some skeletons that came with the Lich Lord kickstarter and these are looking good.
I'm looking for advice for the colours to use on the next batch of figures - Zombies and their skin colour any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hope you like the pictures and thanks for stopping by.

And my first of 2016

Happy New year to you all.

Just a couple more figures to start off the new year.
I dug up these old citadel figures in my 28mm odds and sods box and thought they'd do as a couple of knights for Frostgrave. 
It was only after I finished basing both figures that I thought I should have based them on round bases as the rest of my Frostgrave collection. Oh well.



Hope your heads are OK 

Take care

Last post of 2015

I hope you all had a good Christmas and are recovering well if you over indulged and are ready for more of the same tonight. 

In this my last post of 2015 I thought I'd share a few photo's of my latest painted Frostgrave miniatures. I've been back at work since Tuesday but have managed a couple of hours each night and have made progress on a small batch of figures, more of which will follow in the next few days.

So for tonight's offering we have FGV108 - Summoner & Apprentice standing on a piece of 4ground ruin.

I was quite happy with the finished result though the skin shading didn't have as much definition as I wanted and as usual the photo's aren't brilliant.
 



 Thanks for taking a peek and remember to have a nice time tonight.

Happy New Year

Another Frostgrave warband

Here's my eldest boy's Frostgrave warband that I've just finished painting. The composition is virtually the same except I've replaced my crossbow with an archer. This warband has a crimson scarf/hood/bib theme for his easy identification.
I'm a lot happier with the painting of this group and the varnish finish.
Two pairs of wizards and apprentices and some treasure pieces to finish up and then we can have a trial game.



Thanks for taking a look

4Ground Fabled Realms

One of the 4Ground Fabled Realms that I picked up at warfare was made last night.
 This is Ruins of Daldorr 06 and like the earlier model I made it went together well and they are both shown together in last pictures.


One more to make and hope to make a start on it tonight.

Thanks for looking in .

Warfare

 I spent a few hours at Warfare on Sunday. I did a couple of circuits of the traders and had a look through the bring & buy before making a purchase. It was only after I left I'd realised I hadn't been to the second hall and looked at the games!

As for the purchases:


 A couple more of 4Grounds Fabled Realms ruins, some broken columns, a pack of Frostgrave Undead, a couple of Ground Zero Games walkers for my Crusties and a pack of some Alien creatures with what looks like a shell on their backs (again from GZG).


Almost forgot a bunch of very nice 28mm barbarians, adventures and Chaos foot soldiers all from Battlezone Miniatures

Thanks for taking a look.

A parcel for me !

Over the past week I've looked at every parcel that has turned up and every time it has the wife's name on it (she's doing the kiddies x-mas pressie shopping on line). 
But yesterday the box had my name on it. Inside was the Lich Lord nickstarter - £35 offer.

and for that I received the Lich Lord book, the Cultist figures, the Lich lord and apprentice, dark cauldron pack, a Templar and Frost Wraith figures and a sprue of Frostgrave soldiers.

A good buy from my first kickstarter. Along with the loot from Warfare (which I'll post tomorrow) the collection is growing - along with the unpainted mountain.

As usual thanks for dropping by.
