Blog Explodingzeb's Painting and other stuff blog.

I'm still waiting on some 3D prints until I can finish my Bretonnian warband. In the meantime, I started cataloguing a load of old 80s miniatures that a friend from work gave me a while ago. After sorting them I decided to put some to use as Hired Swords for Mordheim.

An Elf Ranger:


A Kislev Ranger:


A Human Scout:


A Dwarf Troll Slayer:


A Dwarf Pathfinder:


A Dwarf Treasure Hunter:


A Halfling Scout:


A Halfling Thief:


And I also made another two using plastic models from the old Battle Masters game.

A Tilean Marksman:


And an Ogre Bodyguard:

 

I've also been working on a miniature as a Christmas gift for a friend.

 

Those old minis are really cute! Also, nice birdie!

 

Glad you like them. I thought some of them were too characterful to stay unused.

 

Absolutely. They have that old school DnD feel

 

I decided to try my hand at NMM for the metals on this lil guy. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out for my first attempt at NMM. I may do some further refining on it and some on the feathers, but other than that I think he's done.

 

Most definitely a good result for a first try.
Lovely miniature

Grrr, !mrahil

 

Thank you

 

What a fun little guy!

 

The budgie is finished. I'm really pleased with this one and hope my friend's enjoy it as a Christmas gift.

 

Heck yeah, I know I would do!

Grrr, !mrahil

 

Lifelike! Stellar job!

 

Thank you

 

Honestly, this is amazing

 

Thank you so much

 

I got inspired to work on my Bretonnians again and painted up a Knight of the Realm.
This guy is from the cursed duchy of Mousillon so looks a bit tarnished and rusty compared to the other knights.

 

Finished another Knight for my Bretonnians. I like the colour combo on this guy.

 

That looks really neat

 

Love how clean the paint job is. I am jealous.

Also the dragon in his helm is holding a sword and I love that.

 

Thank you friend

Thank you, the cost of the them being so tidy is that each one takes me ages to paint
I need to pick up the pace if I ever want the army finished.
A dragon with a sword is very cool.
