Just finished these three dwarfs. I think they are Heartbreaker miniatures?

I've had them for years, so it's good to finally get paint on them!

Because camo is designed to break up readability, I recommend keeping it minimal and over-riding it with strong edge-highlights to keep everything identifiable and coherent.

Always great to see more #mordheim!
Somebody call the exterminator, I have a rat infestation...

Inspired by the Mordheim event on Saturday I painted up my Skaven warband. Naturally I have more to add but this is everything I need for a starting warband.

Just because they're awesome and under represented online I thought everyone should know that Newline designs are having a 30 years in business sale where everything is 30% off.

I've had these in my stash for nearly 30 years, so it's probably about time to paint them up for #Midgard. Very enjoyable models to work on.

From my very first Battletech book. Great memories of using it and my TRO 3025. Still have both!

Oh the (mini) humanity!

A rogue window fan went through my 10mm AWI light infantry like a cannon ball. It's limbs and heads everywhere, and a gaping hole in the painting line.

Beautiful work on some older figures.
Interesting weekend, mostly really nice. I managed to get these halberdiers done. The flag is printed and then painted and detailled by hand to make it look nice. Slogan is (I hope) "Lick the Bull!" in latin, because it seemed like something soldiers would choose as a war cry based on the design.
