Wow!

It's been a while since I've painted up any Malifaux stuff.

Anyhoo, I managed to get a hold of a LE Performer during the Black Friday sale

Intriguing...

I've finished my Labyrinth board.

Painted in an green obsidian style.

I plan to get a green marble play mat printed for the base

Thanks guys :-)

Cheers man :-)

I'm a big fan of Molemen and was pleased I could do the models justice.

This week I managed to finish my 2nd Razorspine Rattler.

I did this one a brownish (copperhead) colour to differentiate from the green one.

Will I ever need two? Who knows?

In the race to get everything I need painted for the UK GT I've stormed through and finished ahead of schedule.

Last on my list were these Silurids for Marcus.

I've broken with tradition andnpainted them blue which works much better with the snowy bases that the rest of my beasts have.

Hey buddy,

With this moving forward a week I'm not going to be able to attend. We've got tickets to take the kids to see Santa on a train.

I've let Yvonne know.

Sorry man.

Thanks Paul!

Here's my Molemen.

No special considerations when I painted these. Just the multitude of colours (which you can barely see) of soil on the burrowing Moleman's base.

Bring it Joel!

Rematch

*double post

That is a really nice Serpent. I really like how your yellow turned out. I was thinking of using yellow just a while back but decided to skip it as I had no idea how to was it etc..

Funnily enough I use very little yellow in my yellow recipe.

I start with a base of orange, then I add GW bubonic brown in stages. Then pure bubonic brown, followed by adding white for the hightlights.

Thanks.

I should have mentioned, the melting snow was done with superglue with baking soda added.

I've got my Dawn Serpent finished.

I was inspired to do this guy next as I'd seen two major complaints on Twitter.

1. Painting the dawn serpent

2. Painting yellow

So I thought, as the hoarcats were an easy paint, I'd challenge myself and paint the Dawn Serpent yellow.

It wasn't easy but the biggest challenge was finding other colours which complimented the yellow scales.

I think I pulled it off if I do say so myself.

But you can be the judges

Anyway enough rabbling

Okay, a little bit more rambling. I had kind of painted myself into a corner with my basing themes for my typical Raspy and Marcus crew models and done winter bases.

The problem is that I'd imagine a dragon would kick out a lot of heat, so what I endws up doing is combining several different snow techniques I know to give the impression that the snow was being melted by his body heat. I then added some water effects to look like meltwater.

It's tricky to photograph but I hope this gives an idea.

I'm really glad people picked up on the footprints.

I wanted each hoarcat to be interacting with the environment somehow. And that one was a struggle as it's just sort of walking along.

"So" I thought "Why not have it stalking something?"

Put me down as interested Chris

the last one was brilliant
