May Mini Swap: Wildchevy for Mephistoles

Names have been drawn, minis have been prepped, and meet ups in dark parking lots have begun.
This May the guys from Geek Garage will be doing a mini swap. These swaps are always fun and bring out a  nice challenge to break out of the norm.
I'll be painting for Mephistoles and he handed me one of his precious legacy miniatures which is a Slannesh Champion.
Here's what I have to start with.

More updates as soon as the muse whispers to me about a pink color scheme.

Wings of His Enemies

Speaking of slackers, guess who finally showed up! Me, Journeyman! Sorry guys for the massive gap between posts, but I've got a special treat for you all.

A few weeks ago, a local player had a great idea for Lich Lord Terminus. Mod his wings so they looked like they were made from the skins of his enemies. I thought, "Man, that is a stellar and fantastic idea. Not only will I get a chance to practice various skin tones, he'll have a very unique Terminus on the table. A few weeks passed, and here it is.

Constance Blaize - Cygnar

This was a commission I was asked to do a long time ago. Shameful... I know! Well this is done finally. Should have been done ages ago. Constance was a fig I could only work on in segments because the detail was a bit much. Very nice fig though. Well enough blabber. Hope you enjoy the fig. There are few pictures posted so click for the rest.
Cheers,
John...

GG Miniature Swap...

Well the Geek Garage decided to swap some miniatures and paint them for a fellow GG grunt. Chevy came up with the brilliant idea and it just so happens I am painting his mini. Come to find out it is an exclusive mini so there is no pressure at all. Well I am sitting at my table about to embark on the adventure.

Well I tried to upload a picture from my iPad and no go. So you will just have to wait.
Cheers,

Borka Conversion!

Well, looks like someone in the Garage has been a slacker.... Yeah... it was this dude!

DOH!!

I apologize for the long delay... I could fill you with all of my excuses... but instead I'll just get right into my latest project:

So, when I first saw this picture of Borka I knew that was a caster I would have to play some time.


His sculpt was released, and while the sculpt itself is a pretty darn cool sculpt, I really wanted to recreate this epic "Im gonna knock your head outta the park like Babe Ruth" pose.

And so the idea festered, and finally I jumped and decided to give it a go...

Dark Age - Outcast group...

Just cleaned up my Outcast group. Now just have to mount them to their bases. For some reason this group was hard for me to get into and clean. It is strange but I would rather be painting. Go figure.

Andras, Overlord Captain...

Another fig for my sons Reaper Warlord army. This is for his Overlords. I think if I can pull it off I will paint the face armor white on his figs. Green and bronze are his main colors of choice. I gave him a tint of green in his armor just to tie it in. The base is not done on him.

Cheers,
John...

Overlord Shadow Legionnaire's...

Here are a couple of figs for one of my sons Reaper Warlord armies. These are from the Overlord faction. He wanted green and bronze to be his primary army colors. I am using dark metal colors for them but won't always go straight bronze. The bases are not done yet but I thought I would throw them up early.

Cheers,
John...

WIP - Gauntfield, Necropolis Hero...

Here is a WIP for ya'll. I am painting some figs for my boys Reaper Warlord armies. My son wanted purple and gray for his primary army colors. The bones on this dude I used some rotten flesh colors to give it a different feel.
Enjoy...
