    Dia de los Muertos - The Ortegas & Co.

    in Miniature Showcase

    Posted

    I spent most of 2015 playing with Guild but running a pretty un-competitive Lucius list. So, for 2016 I thought I'd stick with my Guild but run a more competitive crew. So I decided to start with the Ortega's as my main focus with Lady J & co as back up. I started to play about with themes before I settled on the Mexican Day of the Dead festival (Dias de los Muertos).

    For those that aren't aware of the festival it celebrates the dead and passed love one. It features awesome elaborate costumes, lots of skulls, painted faces (sugar skull), flowers and just generaly cool decoration. The modern day festival differs to the traditional as it's kind of been commercialised over the years (from what I've gathered). So with that being said, I'll be doing my own version which features a little bit of everything and all a bit better accustom to my painting style and with a hint of Malifaux.

    So the aim of the project is to convert up a nice themed crew, whether small details or extensive conversions. 

    Starting with Perdita:

    I decided to go for big flowing hair and to add roses and bows in. A little hard to spot in the green form but should hopefully come out well once painted

    And followed by her fellow converted master in crime Lady J:

    She is made up from some TTB parts as well as some plasticard and the usual green stuff. She originally started out as a Student of Conflict proxy but the more I worked on her the more she started to look like an Ortega themed Lady J. So that's how she came to be.

    And that's it for now, if you're part of A Wyrd Place on Facebook you may have seen some of my WIP's. I've currently got Abuela and Loco on my workbench and I'll be posting up some detailed pics this week as I sort them.

    All C&C is welcome and any input into the project will be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    Is anyone leaving from or passing through the Midlands that would be happy to car share? Im based 6 miles out of Nottingham just off the M1.

    I'm happy to drive or be the passenger and pay fair share of fuel.

     

    Would love to head up for this but the cost of lone travel is just a tad too high

     

    Cheers

  24. Malifaux World Team Championship

    Hey Greg,

    Sounds like a pretty good idea. Would be nice to see the world's Malifaux community come together for an event.

    Personally I wouldn't be up to scratch to join a team but it's an event I'd put aside the holiday and money for.
