Blog Vosrik's Workshop Hall

A friend of mine found a tiny twig on a hike recently that had half a dozen little "pine cones" on it, so I got the chance to use some of them for the base of my Starseer:



Sometimes the best basing bits are just outside!

 

I'll be able to enter my LGS's AoS drop in night on Monday with 1k points, but I had to finish my Starseer up first. So here he is!



Bonus photo of the snek:

 

Very nice!

 

I went to my LGS last week for a drop-in 1000 point game, but as it turns out there aren't a whole lot of AoS players in my city :/ so nobody was there, although that may also be due to the upcoming rules in a month or two.

Anyhow, I've started on the next 10 warriors! Here's the first one. I also just bought a huge bag of "reptile bark bits" that make really nice rocks for bases that I got to use for this guy.

 

That's poo.

Another beauty!

 

Welp I've been gone for about a month, but during that time I painted up another warrior and finished the base on the next one:

 

Lovely!

Grrr, !mrahil

 

I'm usually not a fan of busy bases but with the saurus on top it doesn't really pull attention away from the main focus would look great on a matching table.

 

Thanks! I'm personally of the opposite opinion, I usually find models to be quite bland if they have a bare or plainly painted base. There are exceptions out there of course, but I personally quite enjoy depicting my minis in their respective environments.

 

All finished up right before I go for a week trip!

 

Very nice! Your bases always look awesome. I'm a big fan of the directional striations on the weapons too

 

Thank you! The blades are meant to be a layman's obsidian, as I'm not particularly skilled at stuff like NMM.

 

Haven't posted in a while since I've just been working on more Warriors before getting my Kroxigors underway. Here's what I've finished so far!



For a couple of these I really tried making more dynamic poses by constructing different levels on the bases, forcing the warriors to have a more unique stance. The biggest example of this is the third photo here, with the warrior nearly leaning off the base.

 

I never noticed the wood grain on the spears until now looks good. Trying to adjust the poses with the base is definitely a good idea if you have more then 1 squad to try and make them not looks like attack of the clones.

 

Finally finished up my last warriors and got started on a brand new unit type. Kroxigors!! I'm beyond excited how good they are this edition, so now is a great time to get them painted up from my two Vanguard boxes.

As always, I picked a lizard as inspiration for my paint style. I decided to use the Red Headed Agama:



I also decided to go all out for this first guy and make him as dynamically posed as possible. I wanted to evoke the image of the krox stepping over a little pool of water mid swing.

 

That looks really great!

 

Awesome work man! Great looking lizard.
I love the representation of real lizards in your colorschemes. Great job!

Grrr, !mrahil

 

That turned out very well! Love it!

 

Thanks for the compliments everyone! Got my next one finished last weekend too:

 

Finished up the last Kroxigor of the 3, and got a couple sticky objective markers done as well!
