Miniatures related news

Razza on Chest of Colors? That's true. icon_biggrin

Szary interviewed Darren Latham, a.k.a. Razza, who is a well known member of the 'Eavy Metal team, whose works are very popular. I must say I was impressed with this exhaustive and interesting text. I believe many of you will enjoy this reading, so if you want to read the first part of our Masters of Miniatures series, check the interview with Razza out!

 Why I Don't Paint
 
New Miniatures

You want to know why I don't paint? Read this piece of news and you will know. You will surely know...

This was a busy week for me and I had to focus on taking photos of miniatures painted by other painters from our group. And these new paintjobs were pretty plentiful!

Let's start with Slawol, who posted some new and some older miniatures to his gallery. The biggest of them is surely the Iron Warriors Dreadnought, but if you want something smaller you may prefer Marco Colombo, Space Marines Captain Tycho, or even Bilbo Baggins. And in case you think we don't show enough regimental quality paintjobs, you shouldn't miss his dwarf Troll Slayers. There are 29 of them! Is this enough?
You don't think so?

So let's move to Dead's paintjobs! This time it's the first batch of miniatures painted for a whole army of High Elves. There's a unit of 21 High Elf Spearmen, one more High Elf Mage, and another big model in this update: a High Elf Chariot. Still not enough? OK...

In this case you should visit Kacpero's gallery and see his Emperor's Champion and 5 more Black Templars Sword Brethren: first, second, third, fourth and fifth.
Are you satisfied now, after seeing more than 60 new models? Not yet???

So I have to show you the last three miniatures of this update. Rentall painted a well known hobbit: Frodo Baggins, and something from the new range of Demons of Chaos: a very special demonette of Slaanesh called The Masque. And check if we saved the best for last: I hope you like Artur's new Space Marines Terminator. I think it's very likely...

And to return to our initial question why I don't paint, let me answer you: you should already know. And if you don't, just count the miniatures in this update. I spent so much time preparing this update, that I had no time for painting. But I hope it was worth the effort and you enjoyed it. icon_biggrin

 Six New Paintjobs
 
New Miniatures

It seems we have only a small update today. We have only a few new painted miniatures in our galleries, but it doesn't mean they're not worth your attention. icon_wink

To, to keep it short: there's Ana's Dark Elf Supreme Sorceress and her Death Guard Dreadnought of Nurgle. And in Kacpero's gallery you can see new Black Templars: Apothecary, and three Sword Brethren: first, second and third.

As you see - it's only six new miniatures, but hopefully they're worth a look. icon_smile

Enjoy!

 Orks, Elves and Demons
 
New Miniatures

So what's new?

This time it's Ana's converted Demon Prince of Nurgle. She added wings and painted him in the pre-heresy Death Guard color scheme. Yes, that's yet another model for the same army of Death Guard Chaos Space Marines...

Szary painted a Standard Bearer for the army of Wood Elves he's been painting for a while already. Another standard and another fine freehand painting depicting just another animal!

There's also a unit of Swordmasters for High Elves and a mounted Bishop.

Now that's an interesting conversion and paintjob! icon_smile

And if you want something really different, we've got something for you. It doesn't happen very often that anyone of us paints an Ork, and it doesn't happen that Eliash posts an update to his gallery. But both of these things actually happened and I am happy to present a nice Ork Warboss mounted on a bike, and two Painboys with gretchin assistants: here's the first painboy, the other painboy is here. We hope you like them.

Soon we'll have something more for you to see, but I guess it won't be ready before the weekend. icon_wink

 Ariel and Aurelius
 
New Miniatures

This time we've got only two new painted miniatures in our gallery, but I hope they're worth your attention.

The first of them was painted by Ana. It's a pretty old miniature from Warhammer Wood Elves range, and it's their queen - Ariel. Ana said she really enjoyed painting this model, painting it as an eerie and ethereal, almost glowing creature. We hope you'll like her.

The other model is from Illusionrip. It's his version of Space Marines Veteran Sergeant Aurelius. He had to stick to the Codex Astartes while painting this model, but this resulted in a true Ultramarine. Check the results out. icon_smile

Ah, there will be more updates to the gallery soon. Very soon. So stay tuned!

 Have We Ever Had a Bigger Update?
 
New Miniatures

We're trying to continue with our tradition of Monday news. Here's what's new in our galleries:

So let's start with Slawol, who painted a group of Grave Guard for Warhammer and Frodo Baggins from Lord of the Rings range.

Dead painted one "fast" tabletop paintjob: a Harpy for his brother's army and a High Elf Mage with a really nice freehand on the back of his cape.

Irkuck changed his earlier Space Marines Chaplain into Chaplain redux. I think the new base doesn't distract from the model as much as the previous one did...

Szary painted quite a few Wood Elves, including a unit of Glade Riders (tabletop quality again? no way...) and a Wardancer Hero.

Artur painted a cartoonish Tir-Na-Bor Thermo Warrior from Confrontation, Typhus - the Herald of Nurgle for Warhammer 40K, and a Space Marine with meltagun - nice and weathered!

Romek returned with a Dark Elf Reaper Bolt Thrower. Quite an interesting color scheme for Dark Elves, don't you think?

And last but not least, Ana painted another combat suit for Tau: this time it's XV-89 Crisis Battlesuit, and another version of Taxxis - the queen of undead. Some exposed skin and a little pretty female miniature here, so if you mind a little nudity, better avoid this one! ;)

Enjoy!

 Updates From Three Painters
 
New Miniatures

Even though it's slightly later than usually, we still have the update for you: a few new miniatures in our galleries!

First there's Ana's Tau XV84 Crisis Battlesuit, painted in a pretty unusual (for Tau) colorscheme and covered with quite severe weathering. It's the first Tau painted by her and there's another one to join him in the gallery soon!

Then there's Elvers with his Kasrkin Sergeant and Familiar. Unfortunately the pictures are very small, but maybe you want to see them anyway? icon_smile

And finally, Nameless uploaded two new pictures to his gallery. One of them is Reaper's Christmas Sophie and... prepare for a surprise.... a unit of Savage Orc Boar Riders painted as many as 10 or 15 years ago. Nice surprise, don't you think? With this nostalgic photo we're saying: another update is coming! icon_wink
