Balefirestorm Posted November 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 I'll try it out. Thanks a lot for the ideas. Might try and fit it with the other mods I've made to Lilitu. Remade her whip so it willl look more like a fleshy... thing in the end. More or less like on my Bete Noir. And will also change her lower legs into some kind of tail or tentacles. Have not yet decided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruglyother Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 You could just give them the neverborn mask. (In fact, I may just have to steal this idea for something.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balefirestorm Posted November 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 Also a very interesting idea. Have to see what path I will follow, but there will be masks of one kind or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balefirestorm Posted November 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Said I would upload some photos yesterday, but didn't really have any time. So here's what I've managed to do with the twins so far. Still a long way to go before I'm really happy, but wanted to show the progress. First up is Lelu: Followed by Lilitu: And a Primordeal magic as a side dish: Comments and critique is welcome as usual 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Some nice additions, I like the masks on L&L. Can't say from the picture, but you might consider adding small holes in Lelu's mask (something like the front part of this one). Love the basework - adds a ton of dynamism to them.

Balefirestorm Posted November 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 I was thinking of adding holes to the mask, but am actually going to paint some kind of eye symbol. Since they are Nephilim, Woe and Nightmare (and in Malifaux as a bonus) I thought that Lelu might not really need sight. Somewhat like this enemy from Resident evil 4. Have also removed the tail from Lelu. Basework almost always add more character to a model and it gives us as painters and modellers a chance to put an already dynamic model into a situation (wasn't that nicely put ). I will be extending Lilitu's skirt to cover up some of the areas to make it look nicer. and also try and add some texture to the tentacles. The Primordeal magic's base will have two more chains added. The plan is to paint them in such a way that they start out as metallic and changes into spiritual (still deciding on choice of colours) before attaching to the totem.

Balefirestorm Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Managed to scrape together some time to paint and take photos again. Getting closer to finishing up all my models for my Dreamer crew. The latest addition is three Alps. I'm happy with how they turned out, even though they're not my best pieces. See what you think: Alp 1 Alp 2 Alp 3 Also been dabbling in a few side projects. Lilith's crew you already know about. Giving the girl a different makeover and this is the result so far: And after facing of against my friend earlier this year, I realized how much fun I could have playing the Hag. So here's a WIP of Zoraida: And a finished Voodoo Doll: Hopefully I'll manage to finish Zoraida during the weekend and start on either Bad Juju or the Hooded rider.

Demonn Agram Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 love the alps! not sure about the Slaanesh and Nurgle... (Lilith and Zoraida).don't get me wrong, they are good paintjobs (or one is just a start of a good paintjob), just together they evoke GW Chaos look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balefirestorm Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 heheheh. I wanted Lilith in purple since the rest of my Nephilim will be purple. Actually had no thought of the Slaanesh angle there. And Zoraida turned out more green than in real life. Something went wrong with the white balance. But if I ever would start playing GW games again, I have two models at the ready *wink* Thanks for the comments *grin* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pride365 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 All of the models look really good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I've just uploaded my painted Alps on the forums, a funny coincidence I like what you've done with them - they look as if they were coming into existence out of nowhere. Something that I've tried to do too, only using much simpler means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wings Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I really like the Alps, and look forward to seeing how Lilith progresses. Zoraida looks awesome too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balefirestorm Posted December 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Under threat of being turned into a puppet, I was forced to swiftly finish painting Zoraida and Collodis four Marionettes. I really have to figure out what's wrong with the lighting in the new apartment, since the pictures is not coming out the way I wish. I hope that the pictures will satisfy your curiosity anyway *wink* Next up: Wicked Dolls and maybe an Effigy.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balefirestorm Posted December 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Just wanted to send in an update. Have managed to get better pictures of two of my Marionettes and Zoraida And also a WIP on a crew to be painted in the future: Pandora The theme of the Pandora crew was of them invading a house and having.... "fun"? Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balefirestorm Posted December 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Thanks a lot. I realized that I really like working with balsa wood. It's such a user friendly material and looks really good The only thing is that balsa wood is really smooth when you get it. If you want some tears or dents, just use a small saw lightly to tear at the pieces. See if I can put some pics later today. Will be adding bases to my (soon to arise again) Hamelin crew. Only thing scaring me is the thought of making bases to all those rats... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balefirestorm Posted December 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Seems I'm just can't stop myself from getting more and more crews. Recently a Levi crew box mysteriously dropped into my mailbox and immediately my messed up mind (think it's usually labeled creative) whirred into motion. I don't really like the the normal Desolation engine too much (don't get me wrong, it's still quite cool), so I started building my very own. Put a few pics of the WIP here to see what you guys think so far. More things will be added: Cables, guts, more armour plates etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Looks very interesting, I guess you'll be adding more screws/cogs/chains to make it even more steampunk but it already looks very cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balefirestorm Posted December 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Of course I will. Can't do something like this without it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zKoTTe Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Great paintjobs! Why don't you come and show off your models at my tournament www.giantfanatic.dk? It will be held in October next year, so you have plenty of time to consider it But none-the-less cool miniatures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balefirestorm Posted December 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 I see what you did there. First some flatter to butter me up and then the offer of joining your tournament Must admit that it's very tempting. Really considering it. Shouldn't be too expensive either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
