Sam.hilgendorf Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 This is my first attempt at a Malifaux crew. It's been about 5 years since I played a miniatures game, and the bug came back. When I saw the Malifaux miniatures, I knew this was the game I wanted to pickup. so, here's my Seamus crew... Starting with the Belle's. I wanted to do something a little different from the production colors, so I went with a vibrant purple, green, and yellow. Here's Seamus. Again, I wanted to do something different than the production color scheme and I hadn't used a red scheme on any other model, so I wanted a dark, almost velvet look for his suit coat (or what's left of it.). Also, I didn't like the combination of the sculpt that Seamus was standing on and the Victorian bases, so I replaced the rock he was standing on with the bag of carrots out of the accessories. For the unique "Belles" I stayed pretty much true to the published schemes. I just couldn't come up with a unique palette that I thought would look as good. Rounding out the crew are the "Copycat Killer", "Convict Gunslinger", and "Bête Noire." Unfortuntely, the picture didn't come out as crisp as the others. Next group will be "The Hanged", "Dead Doxies", and "The Crooked Men." Critiques and suggestions for improvement are more than welcome. -Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercalisto Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 I really like your trio of rotten bellas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam.hilgendorf Posted December 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Next up are the necropunks. I definitely wasn't a fan of the models. The sculpts were a lot less detailed than I would have liked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Very nice work on Semus and the Belles. I really like how bright they are (suitable for such an audacious and gaudy killer). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilbleachman Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Awesome! Yellow Belle <3 Reminds me of the Disney Belle. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModollerMorgan Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Your off to a good start with all your figs, even on the fuzzy pic you can tell they're painted great. I look forward to seeing more from you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam.hilgendorf Posted December 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Reminds me of the Disney Belle. ;D This may have convinced me to buy another set of belles and create a Disney princess theme, adding Cinderella, Snow White, and Ariel.

Now that would be an interesting harem for Seamus to run. Actually surprised no one seems to have done this yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilbleachman Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Seamus indeed does embody every lavishing prince in existence (At least I am sure he believes so). Go for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwitchyPenguin Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Now that would be an interesting harem for Seamus to run. Actually surprised no one seems to have done this yet. I actually have a guy that attends our weekly games that painted them up like Aurora, Belle, and Cinderella. I think they are pretty spiffy, but I dig yours a lot. I still think that even though they are undead, Seamus' girls would still take the time to make themselves as pretty as they can...you know, beyond body parts falling off and that odd skin condition-- But as in modern times, there's nothing that make-up can't fix!

Sam.hilgendorf Posted December 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Next up, The Hanged. I liked how the one on the right turned out, I'm not as crazy with the left one. I think the colors were the wrong choice. Also, while I like this palette for the skin tones for undead, I'd like to find a light pale blue option as well. Any suggestions on colors for a different undead palette? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam.hilgendorf Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Been a slow week, only got one model done, and not even an interesting one at that. Just the grave spirit with no real creativity. Working on the alternate McMourning now. Should be done in a day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Great job on the blending of the gravel lower into the fleshy upper. I like the basing as well. Wondering if you are planning on going back and giving some attention to the wood bits, which just dont look as polished as the rest of the model.

Sam.hilgendorf Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 You know, I thought about touching the wood up a bit, but just didn't make the time to go back. I may have the motivation now. Thanks Omenbringer!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam.hilgendorf Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) I finally got back to the painting table, and finished my Dead Doxies. I really struggled with coming up with a unique color scheme with these, and I eventually came across Kaled's posts and was so taken with them, that I had to mimic them.

Omenbringer Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) They sort of remind me of Might be fun to paint up a Seamus model as Two Face. Great job on the Doxy's, they look good (way to stay accurate by varying the colors on the cobbles). The only critic I might offer is they also look...well quite fresh and alive as oppossed to rotting and dead.

Sam.hilgendorf Posted September 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Well, after a 6 month hiatus, I finally made some time to go back to the painting table. Just finished Dr. McMourning and Sebastion. I'm really excited to play them with the new M2E rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
