God... Coolmini is acting up today....

NYC pictures

I just started a new album where I will post some pictures of NYC I took recently. Long time ago in a black and white era and in a different place I used to do archetectural photography and some claimed that I was pretty good at it. Then it became forgoten for a long time until I received a small but very decent camera for this Christmas....

   Another Megabattle [30/01 11:16AM]   
(1) comments,   (0) trackbacks

Kids decided to try out that megafortres I have been building on and off for the last year (Images bellow). What you see here is a middle of 3000+3000 points battle of Orks against a very much mixed defenders (IG, Tyranids and some chaos). Well, one thing for sure with the number of level I created in this fortress you can easily put 3000 points with a lot of space to spare. I think it is more like 5000 points deal, especially if you want to put reserve inside the fortress itself. Defenders won this battle by a wide margin. Basically when you have that much fortification attackers should have a lot of ordinance weapon. Two basilisks that Orks had (technically one basilisk and one battle wagon) were clearly insufficient....

   High-elf mage/farseer - WIP [27/01 06:14PM]   
(1) comments,   (0) trackbacks

Well, somewhat early WIP of an elf-mage/eladar farseer (converted by switching one arm). I am painting this mage under rather heavy influence... to those who red Chronicles of Amber this is Bleys (sp?). IN fact at some point I was really feeling like making all nine princes but for now it has to wait.

Anyways. Commens are very much appreciated

YES! The new Orck Big Mek with a shock attack gun from game workshop. This kit is really something. First of all, for a pewter mini it is really multipart and I already see how much corrections I have to make in the near future. Mold lines are everywhere (multiplied by the number of parts). Flashes.. Those are even worse. The model has several sculpted chains with 3-4 flushes on EACH chain link. Lots of hiden flashes on his boots....Snotling... The whole thing is about 1 cm long and it had about half a dozen of them with two sticking up from both buttocks. ...
