Painting Ironclad Dreadnought for Warhammer 40k

I decided to add a little to my Space Marine force. I needed something to counter those very big Demons.

























I was a little surprised that there was not a decal for the flag, so I had to paint it freehand. Looking forward to the next warhammer game.

Painting Barbarians for Frostgrave

I was running of things to paint, so I decided to paint a spur that was given to me by Mike. Painting barbarians is not very difficult. I mostly used all the different types of Browns. I then washed with Citadel brown, green and skin.

Painting Flames of War mid-war Humber

So the other week I went to Frere de Bataille.

FDB

The have a complete selection of Flames of War. I bought a Humber Armoured Car Troop box. It comes with 3 Humber cars. I had an old British desert spray paint can, so after the black primer, I did a base with this and highlighted with Dark Sand (847). Next was a little camo with Brown Violet 887) and painted the tires Black (950). The last step was a light highlighting with Iraqui Sand (819).  These are all Vallejo paints.

Painting 40k Primaris Space Marine Chapter Ancient

I forgot to post my Space marine Chapter Ancient.


























It was interesting to paint as I had to put a number of decals. The black ultramarine had to be hand written. I think it turned out nice.

Painting Warhammer 40K Space Marines

Warhammer 40K has just released a new rule set. It is much simple than previous editions I am told, so I taught that I would give it a try.

A while back my nephew gave me some 6th edition space marines. I decided to try painting them as Ultra Marines.

I have only played one game and Mike destroyed me and Stan.

Here is two Tactical Squads.

















A Scout Squad















An Assault Squad (I think)

















A Teckmarine



























A Captain


























A Land Speeder




















A Predator

Painting Goth Army for next SAGA campaign part 2

I have been busy painting but a little lazy with posting. I decided to buy another Goth starter set for the campaign. This time it was the Visigoths. It is a lot cheaper to buy the starter set than buying separate forces. This starter set came with two mounted Hearthguard units and two warrior units on foot.

These are the two warrior units























The two Hearth Guard units





















As you can see I used the Little Big Men Studios Shield Transfers. Works really well.

I have the two sets in one magnetize box.




















This should be all for my goths. Time to move on to other projects. I played two games so far with Mike. This first was a one sided slaughter. My Goths moved rapidly closed the distance and killed all resistance. The second battle was a lot closer. Mike lost all his force with the General being the only one standing. I had my General and one Hearth guard model. So I won by one point.
