Totally not a Conan warband

Here another project I wanted to make for a long time. 
An 80's style warband. Something it looks like it came from an He-man cartoon. 
Unfortunately I have not enough old monopose miniatures for a full warband, so I added some more modern miniatures. They will be replaced in the future, maybe. 
I'm also lacking monster men with the right look. Maybe some old Warhammer lizardmen? 

The monopose are from Talisman, warhammer quest, dark world, Battle master and harlequin miniatures. The big snake is a toy, but it fits. As for rules: this should work as Kurgan (marauder of chaos) warband for Mordheim. But mostly as a d&d encounter.

Circus of delights

 I made this band last summer, but I never took decent photos of it.

These photos are not decent, but at least they are new. 

The miniatures are a mix of GW and Kings of War stuff (I think) and they should both work as Cult of the Possessed and Carnival of Chaos bands for Mordheim. 

Even if they are very Slaaneshy. 

The paintjob is nothing spectacular, but I'm particularly happy of the 2 demon clowns.

Nostalgia is a bad beast

Yes, I'm still alive. 

 I'm also in a very old school mood lately, so I bought some very old models and here the first test for a small band of humans.

Painting with sharpies

I saw a lot of tutorials on the argument, so I wanted to try.
I have one of those free stormcaster and a discounted set of 3 metallic sharpies, so let's try. 
The only thing I conceded was a black undercoat and some touches of black where I slipped. 





First of all, the silver was dry out of the box. Now I know why the pack was on a discount. 

The results are meh, but consider this: no glue, no paint (except the black undercoat), it took 20 minutes and it is tournament legal. 

Food for thoughts.

Oldhammer elves

I raided the bits box to add some men to this old band of elves. Some are good elves, some are evil, I don't care, they all wear red now.

Fairytale troll











The big guy is finally done and with some decent photos too. This is a toy from the "how to train your dragon" movie with a new face and a tail to make it looks like a fairytale troll. The small boar on his shoulder is a decorative bead.
I tried a lot of new techniques on this guy, so it looks a little bit different from my usual style.

I have no intention to play with him, so the base is not legal for any game, but I think he can fit well in Mordheim. 
Barbarian for scale.
