Hey Wyrdos, This week we've had to explain to Waldo just exactly what social distancing is and despite our best efforts, he's just not getting it ... we're tempted to show just exactly 'what' we shook out of the keyboards after he was done with them, but our lawyers have advised against it. A few of the fellas are still disinfecting. So, while we quarantine the little bugger for a couple of weeks, we thought we would present you with a bit of fun for those of you who are locked up in self isolation and provide you with a good ol' fashion coloring contest! Snippy, whom we'll introduce in

Hey everyone, Normally we would have all of the event/tournament information and packets made available at this time for Adepticon. This year we’re trying something a little different, so it’ll be a little bit more time before we can get those out to you. In order to give you the reason why it’s taking longer than normal, we have to reveal a little secret: The M3E FAQ & Errata document is coming soon, as is Gaining Grounds Season One. The big thing here is that Adepticon’s Malifaux tournaments will be utilizing Gaining Grounds Season One Schemes and Strategies, as well as an

[For those that want to rather download the MS Word file, I've attached it to this message.] Perdita Ortega Tactica Intro When the Second Breach was discovered and people started settling in Malifaux, constant Neverborn attacks prompted the Guild to put a bounty on every Neverborn head delivered to their doorstep. Perdita gladly obliged and soon became a legend throughout Malifaux, earning so much scrip that she was able to send for her entire family to follow her through the Breach. Living on a ranch outside of the city, this family of gunslingers instils fear into the

Hi there! i finally finished (i actually have to fix some cracks on the sewer water, but other than that is done 🤫) the scenic base, it has been my “sixtine chapel”. I’ve put a lot of effort here, from planning, to building and painting, and i’m glad the whole thing worked out as I expected. SS wise i think it was about 30ss, could be 100 if you ask me XDDD Here are some pics (I took dozens of pics, I have a dormant thread with my stuff around the forum and i’ll upload there more pics to avoid spamming thi

Wip of Ross Jebsen's little piggy

Here you go, I'm not an artist, my first digital art ever. I hope you will like it

Tanuki done! Fairly quick one to start the month with. Few lazy evenings worth of paint for this furball. Can't even remember when's the last time I drybrushed a model this heavily. Had trouble deciding on a colour scheme at first. Ended up not really using coloursNot quite black 'n white but... black 'n sepia perhaps? Planning on a darker, shadow marker inspired look for Katahiro. Hopefully with Wanyudo and Minako I'll get back to using some colours. Here's hoping everyone else is also off to a good start for March

On the 4th-5th of January we had a big 5 rounds tournament in Moscow. 40 players from 8 towns played 93 games of Malifaux (unfortunately two players couldn't play all 5 rounds because of personal matters and some players were late for the forth round). I asked players to fullfill information about their leaders, secondary masters (if any), selected schemes and scored VP. All data is available here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SD8puKmVsJ1KNiPoFr1X8Yx1na0qjZ72AqBLI4aFYps/edit?usp=sharing Feel free to use it in your own recearch. I know that a lot of players in Europe don't like

33 soulstones + 21 more for three Order Initiates brings me a total of 54 ss for October

Hey folks! Since we'are all in the "stay at home" mode I forced myself to paint me first gremlin crew - The Bayou Boss. Well, its still in process, but the biggest hat and his dumbster are completely finished (dtill need water effect on bases, which I expect to make ASAP).

Someone was nice enough to share these pics on Facebook.

Finally calling these two guys done. I have painted them for more than a month, 15 minutes to half an hour every now and then as family duties permit 🙂. What to say.. Starting to gain some understanding of the contrast paints, looong way to go with nmm.. But I like them. Freehanding the cloak was very difficult, my hands were shaking from anxiety to finish the model, and my brush is all but new..😅 @Caedrus 24 stones this month. One lawyer and steward waiting for brush and April. Then I will continue to some guard.. Executioners are already ordered, and Dashel box is next on

So yesterday was a very productive day (especially since I didn't go to work) so I got to finish the Carrion Emissary: Not gonn lie to you, using the airbrush for the clothes and drybrushing the wings really sped up the process!

@Caedrus 10ss done. Sure! Was sort of cut short on my last post by kids bedtime preparations. So here's wot I painted: Wings ended up being a really big block on my progress with this. Didn't know how to approach them. Wasn't happy with initial attempts. Ended up with something I was fine with. And by the end I was quite done with this mini. Thinking back, what was it that I said early in this thread..: "Realistically something as big as this is likely to wear me out by the end. So no promises on quality." Well, I do like where I ended up with it. C

Dayglow Kaeris's crew is ready as my final entry for 2019 40ss if I'm correct

Here's my last pledge of the year: Kaeris and her crazy friend The firestarter for 22 SS. Kaeris was one of the mini's that drew me to Malifaux, so I'm happy about finally having painted her.

Finished the new Molly sculpt and the new Rabble Risers

Hey everyone, Despite wanting to stay in our own alternate universe, the real world sometimes makes that impossible. Like many other industries and companies, our production schedule has been impacted by the safety measures taken to help control the coronavirus epidemic. We are doing our best to keep everything on track, but health and safety come first; as such, our upcoming releases for February and March might be pushed back a little bit. We will keep everyone updated as we get more information. We thank you for your understanding during this time; stay safe, and we wish the

Hope everyone is staying healthy and safe in these crazy times. While it may seem I should have more time for painting (fully work from home mode on for the foreseeable future), I actually struggle as I'm with two small and lively girls too. Still, managed to paint a few minis but before i show pics, let me go through the great content I've seen here this month: @Wintergloom - Very nice, clean painjob on the Thralls. As for the Golem - I really like the you've separated three different focus area of the model ( body, coffin,sculpture). Each one is distinctly different but they combine ni

My pledge for March is now complete. I present to you one Ruffian and Malifaux's goodest girl, Luna. Considering I don't plan on leaving the house a lot for the foreseeable future I may still add something to this but for now, here we are: Ruffian - 5ss Luna - 2ss Total - 7ss

Crazy times, I hope you're all staying safe and healthy wherever you are! I was a bit underwhelmed when I started with the Gigants, some elements on these minis look really bad like the spikes on this one's back. undeterred, I continued and worked on one of them to get a feel for them. Here's my first attempt at their skin. Still a lot of work with details but I think I'm getting somewhere.

Hey Wyrdos, 2019 was both an exciting and challenging time for us at Wyrd, and in 2020, we are looking for ways to improve and grow. One of the biggest obstacles we saw last year was getting our games onto store shelves through traditional means. To address this, we have begun the Direct to Retail program. If your brick and mortar local game store is having issues receiving our products, let them know that a new option is now available. If you are one of those stores that has experienced difficulty stocking any of our items, head over to our Direct to Retail page to find ou

OK, translucent Raspy and her friends are ready. A total of 40ss to get me started in 2020 More pics on my blog: http://www.whatthefaux.net/2020/01/translucent-raspy.html

Hahaaa, I made my first display board. I am happy, it really ties the crew together. Behold, the glory of December (in October) Originally, I wanted to start with a swamp board for Ophelia, but had no resin on hand. Which turned out to be a good thing, because last weekend I found a toy boat on a flea market, which will be perfect for her board. Seeing the board made me want to update my december crew, so I actually spent more time updating their look, than making the board. Things looked pretty dire midway through the transformation and i regretted everything, but it turned out OK

Caedrus, checking in! Greetings, fellow painters. I hope September has treated you well. So, I'll be doing a little feedback for all sometime soon, but for the moment, with 2.5 hours to spare, I finished a miniature this month! Here he is, the Freikorps Engineer! So, I'm slowly, sloooooowly getting a sense of NMM, but there are still a few areas where I need to improve (with "don't be afraid to use dark shadows" as the first thing I could improve upon). However, overall, I'm pretty pleased with this guy, even if I am painting at an absolutely glacial pace. There

So I am quite new to the forums, so I decided to make myself a hobby thread of some of the Malifaux models which I have painted. I am still quite new to the game only really starting to get into it a year ago, but have been quite hooked. First is my latest and main crew, Asami. I love painting these models... but am so happy I never have to do anything like Ama no Zako ever again. These were all done mainly with contrast paints which I just love for Malifaux models and then highlighted afterwards. The spiders were the biggest pain in the ass... so many legs!

Titania box set finished. On to the Howling and the Alt Killjoy. I may save Pandora for next month, I'm seriously approaching painting burnout.

Hi there, hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! I's been a busy month but I managed to complete Euripides and the rest of his crew. The remaining three minis were pure fun to work with: As always, more pictures can be found on my blog at http://www.whatthefaux.net/2020/04/here-be-giants.html or on my IG profile https://www.instagram.com/what.the.faux/ Now let me have a look at what's been shown here so far this month @Caedrus - quantity, quality and creativity ! Agent 46 is my favorite - I like the limited color palette there. @Rathnard - those are probably my f

And the winners are.... @Zool and @CateranLlama! Congratulations to the winners of this art contest, which was FULL of wonderful renditions of Plague Boi! Stay safe out there!

Minako Rei done. And with her the Karmic Debt box in its entirety. Ended up ditching the freehand idea. I did doodle something on the mini. And a lot more on some paper. Couldn't figure out anything I was really happy with. Oh well. Kill your darlings and all that. Might compensate with my next mini. I think I could do one more for March..

Caedrus, Reporting in! Apologies for the late upload of the photos. Here's what I did in February! I hope you'll excuse the over-bright, washed-out images. I need to get my camera setup worked out one day soon. You've already seen the Monster Hunters: The theme for this month is "high contrast reds" 😉 An Ortega is next, complete with dapper top hat. This actually completes my Family keyword, so I'll try to host a complete photo soon. Ha. A Family Photo. I make me laugh. I finished off my proxy Cojo: ...not as much personality as the Wyrd v

I’ll try and take some better pictures at some point but that’s Sidir done! I really had a lot of fun painting this model, but I’m excited to paint something with a bit less white 🙃 So that’s 9ss to complete my Enforcer pledge!

Autumn grows closer, the air is beginning to cool and the nights are growing longer. As the leaves change color and fall, we want to celebrate this spookiest of the seasons. Round about the paint pot go; On the palette throw Royal blue and bloody red; Thirty-one Days of Dread; Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and paint pot bubble. That's right, it's Rotten Harvest time! Miniatures can be submitted any time during the contest, though none will be showcased until the day voting begins. Submissions will be accepted from October 1st up till midnight EST (UTC -5)

Caedrus, checking in! Folks, my apologies, I've been a bit non-communicative the last couple of weeks. There's a lot of busy going on in my world right now! So much so, in fact, that I have painted just one Malifaux mini this month. However, I spent, if I'm honest, waaaay too much time on a single minion. Still, I wanted to mess about with this mini for ages, and I had a plan in mind, and it actually worked out! Here he is, 8SS of Drachen Trooper! In case you were interested, the flames are greenstuff (formed over a bent paperclip for the jet of flame), and the thicker fue

boo The happy family Not sure what else to do with the basing that won't distract from the models. Baby Kade needs something and I lost his little bear autopsy - maybe something written in blood. I'm generally not a fan of basing; it never looks the way I envisioned. I got these Death Ray Design bases and followed their youtube tutorial. Quite pleased with the turnout. That's an early pledge completion for me, so I'll probably start another crew. Have a good weekend, all!

Caedrus, reporting in! What did I paint in May? First up, an experiment – Proxy Illuminated. I have the original sculpts, but they don’t look right, lore-wise, and they’re just … not my thing. These will do until then next lot are available. I was happy with the sculpted flames, the colour schemes, the bases, and the cohesion. I was less happy with the ridiculously tall female multi-part miniatures, and I think my bosom-sculpting could do with a little work. The girl in blue may not be Illuminated, but she is certainly not all natural. I have to work on my sculpti

3x Night Terror. There was a 4th but after building 3 I just couldn't face it

I finished my chicken! Mah will be pleased, her spoon is ready. Together with my earlier work, this makes 17 SS. I would like to congratulate everyone on their consistently great work. I hope painting brings you some joy during this difficult time. Best wishes to yôu and your loved ones ❤️

Amanjaku made it into march! Must be the season of the ONI... i spent quite a lot with OSL on his face, and is hard to apreciate in the regular pics, so i took a close up And a March group bonus pic so far

Hey Wyrdos! This week, Waldo heard we’d be going to the GAMA Expo. He insisted on coming with, and now we need to try and figure out how to fit an imp into a truck. While we pack up Waldo’s suitcases (most of them are filled with hats; he claims he’ll need all of them in case the sky starts falling), we thought it would be a good time to present: Gaining Grounds Season One! A comprehensive guide for tournaments and official play, Gaining Grounds introduces 4 brand-new Strategies and a slew of Schemes (8 brand-new and 5 old favorites). Casual and competitive gamers alike will benef

I did it! I finished them. So. Much. Fire. Pretty pleased. I don't thnk they quite stand out as much as I want but they do look nice and cohesive in the crew with the other models.

Hey guys some great work going on this month. Here's what I've been up to. Managed to get a lot more done than I thought I would Lord Chompy Bits and Coppelius Doppleganger and 3 Daydreams

Here's the finished Marlena Webster for 8ss @Barbercat where are those terrain buildings from?

Hey Wyrdos, This week, Waldo thought that he’d help out with some of the ventilation in the office by cleaning the chimney. We didn’t know we had a chimney, or a fireplace, or even any ventilation issues. As it turns out, we don’t. I guess the good news is that he’s out of our hair for a while, but the bad news is that while we didn’t have any issues before, we certainly do now. So while we figure out where all of this black dust and ash is coming from, let’s take a look at another alt model that we’ll have available during the Black Friday sale, the Silent Knight! In Ma

Caedrus, reporting in! I knew this month was going to be a big one. So many life pressures stopping me from putting pigment to plastic! However, I found the time to get this one model done, at least. And hey, who knows? I might find some more time in the next week. Like many of you, I have a stealth project underway... For the moment, though, here's 9SS of Toshiro, the Japanese Undead Pirate. Yar! I had quite a bit of fun with this model. He's my colour / basing / thematic testbed for an upcoming Brine and Bones experiment. So, a slightly more cutlass-ey sword, a pirat

The purpose of this post is to make a table of contents to link to the in depth articles, discussions, and resources for M3E Resurrectionists Players. I cannot vouch for the validity of the tactics and opinions in the links I just added ones that seems to have a decent amount of discussion. @mythicFOX or @Adran can we get a sticky on this thread? If something is missed in this post either message or reply and I will review the content and add it to the appropriate section: Disussion Threads: Albus- -Discussion & some limited lists/tactics: https://themostexcelle

Making progress on my pledge. Don't think the bases I ordered for Yan Lo's crew will arrive in time.

Some Ortegas done! A monster hunter. I really like this sculpt. It is so cool. Another Monster hunter. Nino Ortega. I really like how this model turned out. And Papa Loco.

Caedrus, reporting in with a WIP Update! I've been chipping away at my Shelf of Shame for some time, and these miniatures are all under the categories of "If I can just get these done, that keyword is completely painted", OR "Just finish the damn miniature, will you?" First up, a proxy miniature, The Dispatcher! For those who haven't seen my painting before, my Malifaux tends to be less Old-West, more Victorian-Steampunk-Lovecraftian. Expect lots of brass and brown! My NMM Brass isn't the best, but I'm slowly learning. I also tend to plan just as much as I paint, so th

Transmortis is complete! The final 3 Von Schtook, Research Assistant and Undergraduate. Paint scheme inspired by @Viruk @Caedrus brings my total for November to 39ss Schtook 15, Research Assistant 2, Undergraduate 6, Dead Rider 11 and Rotten Belle 5
