- Guild Autopsies List looks fine. I have played similar ones and was quite pleased with them.

Count me in. For august, I will finish some of my gremlin or resurrectionist models, but the choice of my next crew/master really depends on how the alternativ/avatars look ;-)

I think this is a great idea and personally, I would love to come. A visit to the UK is way overdue and this way, I could kill two birds with one stone :-) Is there at the moment any idea or indication about when (and where) the event is going to happen, like this summer, this winter, next spring... Would be nice to be able to give my boss at least a hint on my vacation plans already.

I don't like them either. I guess they would be worth it if the Nurse's stimulant spell could increase their ranged cb and damage...

Which model(s) do you mean? ;-) Most "living" minis have on the dark/shadow side a mix for Dark Flesh (GW) and Purple (Vallejo) which was mixed with more and more Elf Flesh (GW) for the highlights. The "undead" fesh used Rotten Flesh (GW) instead of Elf Flesh. Furthermore, some parts (right hand of Frankie and Seamus face/ lips iirc) used Red Gore (GW) or even Blood Red / Pink (GW) instead of the purple for the Dark Flesh Mix. Other parts used some blue and grew tones like Frankie's left hand of the Convict' left arm for the Shadows. As you can see I was experimenting quite a lot with the skin tones. I hope it helps anyways ;-)

Actually, I am not a big fan of the golem. Moreover, imho 1 Essence is enough. Especially, as the faster wendigo can march forward an possibly cast some of Tina's spells where needed (although this might be less important because of the mirrors). On top, you have one extra SS and you can use the lovely wendigo without losing the benefits of the essence :-) Other nice synergies of my list would be that Hans can shot through the fire pillars and Kaeris can blow up the gamins for shatter and burning counters. Gamins can enhance damage for the ranged firepower and the silent one increases the range. Edit: Additional thoughts just came up :-) Two Essences might be really nice when cross-linked. You could have Tina's Spells near Kearis and vice versa...

I might purchase Rasputina soon and I was thinking about adding the following minions: 1x Essence 1x Wendigo 2x Gamin 1x Silent One 1x Kaeris 1x Hans +1 extra Stone = 35 I am not sure if I can play both totems. Wendigo for Tina and the Essence for Kaeris (which would of course be linked to Tina most of the time). The list would involve some tactic elements like the pillors but mainly, I would be just death from far far away :-) What do you think? Is this a viable list or is it too slow?

I don't know if it was mentioned yet but the descriptions of Undead Psychosis and Distract should involve that you can cast it on your own models which comes very handy if you want to hit a high wp model or even something with immunity. Especially with the Psychosis, I cast it almost as often on my own as on my opponent's minions.

I am really fond of the design and artwork of C.Hoffman. So, I am thinking of adding him to my masters. Now, I am planing on playing him more balls out. To do so, I would like to include the spider swarm to give Hoffman either melee master and/or self repair. Hoffman has quite an impressive damage output with his fist and open circuit which might make him more of a frontline master than you would expect. A second swarm would be nice to in order to swarm apart early in order to reduce minions df but that might also be helped with a couple of extra SS. A problem is that only very few ss are left to include minions that bring Hoffman to the front. I was thinking about the ht2 spider or the hunter. What do you think of this approach. Can Hoffman be the man to smash faces himself?

Thanks for your comments. @MunkeyKungFu Iirc the green is pure goblin green (GW) as base color. Highlights were done with a mix of goblin green and a bright grey (also GW but I cannot remember the exact tone). For the shadows I used graveyard earth (GW).

After a long absence, here some of my newest minis and a group picture of the doctor's crew. Not the best pictures... I know.

I thought Levi would leave a scrap counter because he is a contruct or am I mistaken here?

I actually started with purple and mixed in more and more goblin green (GW). For the last highlight I used a mixture of gobline green and bronze Flesh (GW). I wanted to use some yellow instead of the bronze flesh but I had no yellow, so I just went with the flesh tone and it turned out quite well.

Currently, I am also thinking about getting the box + Jack Daw. I was, however, wondering whether or not additional hanged might be useful. Makes the boost from Jack them shine or is it just a huge point sinkhole? It seems like a pretty big investment for 30 - 35ss scraps. Another quick Levi question. Can anyone tell me why Levi and Alyce are soulless. I have read the stories from book 1 + half of the stories of book 2 but I couldn't find a clue about that. From book 1, Levi also seems to be a rather nice guy and not like an evil steampunk necromancer which his rules suggest. Is there any additional stuff on him fluffwise?

The demons are Confrontation Moloche from Rackham, but they are not produced any longer. You might get lucky finding a box of them, but I had some trouble until I got mine.

greats minis. I am especially fond of how you painted the eyes. There is so much expression in them and they fit the character of the minis perfectly. Do u mind telling me how you achieve that? Which tool do you use for the pupils. I have the most difficulties just hitting the center of the eye but you seem to have no troubles putting them wherever you want :-)

Nice crew and I totally agree that those minis are really fun to paint. However, I would have liked some pictures as well. In the video it is quite hard to take a good look at all the details. What I could see, looked very nice though. One small point. The fire of the torch should be from white/yellow to red/black and not vice versa. The hottest part of the flame is its center and should be white/yellow. I hope it is clear what I mean. I think that quite a common mistake.

And here comes the next gremlin...

Hmm, I do see the pictures but the problems is probably that thez are linked from another forum. Then I guess the 3 pictures of my LCB+Dreamer proxi are not displayed either, are they?

My Ophelia box arrived two days ago and I could not wait to start painting. Here is my Ophelia. Base is still wip but should give an idea of what I want. PS: Could an admin maybe change the name of this thread to "pfuetzi's minis". I think that will fit the content better. Thanks in advance :-)

He Koali, I have just stumbled across your battle report here and I was really disappointed but only because I already read it in the German forum :-D Nice work translating it. Are you planning on doing the same thing with your other reports as well? If this is the case, I could assist you and write a summary of our games if you like. Moreover, I probably have my next Malifaux game on Wednesday and I might write a short report about that as well.

how did you do the bases. I was thinking about something similar but I am not sure how to make them exactly.

Maybe, I will make some better picture and a group photo at some point next week. Next on my schedule is obviously the basing, but I also ordered a Ophelia box which should arrive end of this week and I am already eager to paint those fantastic minis. Moreover, I was planning a proxi for the Dreamer and LCB. To give you a first impression of my interpretation of those models, here are some pics of what I had in mind.

Great models. Great details. I especially like how the eyes and stockings turned out. I still have a lot of trouble when it comes to painting eye section. Do you have any advice how to achieve such fantastic results? I am also interested in how you painted the fine line of the fishnet stockings. Did you use a regular brush or were other tools involved as well?

Thanks. Where can I find that information? Would be helpful in the future :-) I guess then everything beyond September is still a secret and no long term plans have been and will be announced, right?
