Christmas figure haul... Left at the bottom of the garden....

 

Statuesque Miniatures from Steven and Sarah. Lovely quirky range!

Merry Xmas everyone

 

And a Happy New Year!

Munch Kin Munks and Mulitia (etc)

So continuing with the sculpting... still very crude, but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. Think.

The Munch Kin - descendants of intrepid explorers from the land of Munch, these kin of the Munch foundered settlements along the river they named the Munch. Sadly lacking in imagination they gave these settlements names like Munch City, Munch Town and Munchville. These were my first attempts - I'm still considering paint schemes. Probably my biggest issue is doing hands. I might be looking at using hands from other figures. 

A small 'army' called the Mulitia have the job of protecting these  settlements from attack.

I'm also having a go at doing some smaller Alice type figures - here, a turtle and dodo. Once this lot are painted in the New Year I hope they will look better.

From Steven's post, I thought I'd have an attempt at PacMan - Steven will be visiting for a few days over the New Year, so he might make a better attempt.

That's really it until the New Year - won't be having much time to do anything wargames related for the next couple of weeks. Once I've stopped 'playing' with these I'll probably start using some of the other Garrison resources for figures - dollies, hands, heads, etc. That's for 2025.

The tree is up...

 

New tree, old one is working out doors this year.

Couple of other things...

I've done a couple of other long skirted Amazons and I am painting them up as Britannia types. Still need to paint on the armour and generally tidy the figures up.

 

They are a lot smaller than the Minifigs version... not sure about trying a figure with a cloak...

This venerable S&S Range figure is one I'm not sure about. Don't know if it's finished or not, haven't/hadn't a clue how to paint it in the first place!

Pacman ghosts - by Steven

 Most recent side project: three ghosts from Pacman. Figures are by Crooked Dice. Unfortunately, I am not aware of any miniatures of Pacman himself. 

After months of painting everything in muted, naturalistic colours, it was nice to break out the bright colours.These were also another go at using the airbrush, with some glazing and washes to refine the paint job. Essentially painted over a weekend, which is very fast for me!

The Swarm and other Lovecraft type horrors

 

The swarm. Still experimenting with these. The smaller ones are roughly the equivalent of 12' long. Still need a lot of black to be added where bare metal keeps showing! I've tried lots of different facial variations on these, plus I'm looking at some being in 'standing' poses, possibly with weapons. The swarm will also be including some wingless types. Possibly Mi-go types?

Another Mi-go possibility. Still a long way to go painting this and lots of variations to try. I'm thinking basically cross between a bat and a segmented body - still thinking about how long the legs should be.

And finally still expanding the Cthonians... that disc effect on the end of the tentacles was obtained by using a medieval lance for the tentacles instead of a spear...
