I finished the rest of my Warcrow Red Caps this week. Flamecobs- Red Caps equipped with flamethrower hands Spoiler: Red Caps Flamecobs Osseus- Cubone-looking, boneclub- wielding Red Caps Spoiler: Red Caps Osseus Sightless- Blind Red Caps slinging lava from jars, led by another Red Cap on their shoulders Spoiler: Red Caps Sightless
Here are all the completed Underworlds Rascals expansion for Warcrow Adventures (Corvus Belli). 3x Sightless, the Rumpy Road/Red Capped King, and 3x Osseus.
Yup, no assembly for these guys either, all I added was some sand on the bases and could paint them straight out of the box. Finished the last Red Cap mini- the Crucible! Basically this mini is the Lord of the Rings Cave Troll scene, but with its back being the uruk-hai mud pits from Isengard... In game the Crucible not only spawns units of more Red Caps onto the battlefield once other units perish, but it can also literally throw them across the battlefield towards oncoming enemies I do love the Red Caps hitching rides on her She turned out good enough, great army centerpiece!
Here are all the completed Deathclaws of the Dream expansion for Warcrow Adventures (Corvus Belli). Back row (L-R): x3 Gobblers, Crucible, x3 Bugbowls Front row (L-R): x2 Flamecobs, Nuada, Overseer, x2 Stompers Love how they turned out. In terms of terrain here are the finished Volcanos (volcanoes?)- Made of balled up aluminum foil covered in my toddlers discarded play-doh Spoiler: also got a beach gaming mat!
That is an amazing looking pack of models. Top notch!! Love the scenery and gaming mat, really sets the scene of the battlefield. Grrr, !mrahil
Full Red Cap Collection! As much as I really wanted to take my Lizardmen to Adepticon this year to be my Frostgrave warband, I pivoted to these guys instead. Always wanted a batch of Red Caps to paint, glad Corvus Belli came through for me with these guys. Just a few more spellcaster pieces to put together for the warband and I will be ready to go.
Next project to smash out before Adepticon (its less than a week away) is some old (and a few new) Cryx models from Warmachine that have been burning a hole in my pile of shame for at least 6 years. Its been a while since I painted these guys, all the way back on page 25 of this thread! Spoiler: WIP cryx Cryx minis WIP, either done or yet to come. I am doing a new approach to the faction, as much as I enjoy the look of the previous minis I painted for Cryx it was not much fun to paint. Plus I have been inspired recently to do some work based on another artist I found on instagram. Spoiler: Cryx previous color scheme and new inspiration Here is the previous battle-box I painted in 2020: They look fine... but the lines were a pain in the butt and I don't want to do this again. Inspiration came from @Wubswammers on instagram and his awesome Dark Mechanicum: I started with the glorious Pistol Wraith, perfect 2D metal model from classic warmachine: Next up are two warjacks, had to get these guys right and I love how they turned out. They read "ghostfleet" to me thanks to the way I painted their heads, just what I was looking for. Erebus Helljack (Cryx Heavy Warjack)- Spoiler: Erebus Helljack Corruptor Helljack (Cryx Heavy Warjack)- Spoiler: Corruptor Helljack Turns out great. Really like the look of this guy. If anyone remembers Bionicle, his head reminds me of the Bohrok swarm.
