Frostgrave Wizard & Barbarian

I found this old freebie GW plastic wizard and the TSR barbarian in my bits and bobs pile and thought they'd be ideal for Frostgrave.
The wizard come up really well and I'm happy I found him. The Barbarian was part of a TSR box set of adventurers. I think there were 12 figures in the set, I found two which I've painted up and wish I could find the rest as I'm sure there were a few other figures that would do for Frostgrave. Oh well I'll keep looking.

Thanks for stopping by.

Frostgrave Cultists 2

Here's the second band of cultists to be done.
This lot were going to be a darker colour but I found an old pot of GW Hawk Turquoise which I thought would go well with the darker blue I had in mind for the head gear.

I''ll do one more band of these I think but not sure the colouring, possibly reds/browns.

Thanks for stopping by.

Frostgrave Cultist

I finally got around to assembling some of the cultist that came with the Lich Lord nickstarter.
The figures went together nicely and a few mold lines had to be removed. The detail was nice and came out well on the painting. I decided to paint as a band with the same coloured attire.

There will be second band in a couple of days when the bases are finished.

Thanks for stopping by.

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
