Empire Halflings

I love these guys. Once again they are based for Kings of War.

Not using my time as wisely as I should: Back to Fantasy.

Hey Joe here. I broke my back. It's a simple story that if you listen to the podcast you probably know all about it. needless to say I've essentially been confined to my house strapped into a plastic suit of armor and told not to do anything. Unfortunately, one thing I cannot not do is paint. Using the time I'm sitting around doing nothing I decided I'd try to make a dent into the vast amount of miniatures I have. So I'm going to start blogging my progress instead of sending them via text to people who probably could care less.

Anyway, I needed 2 wizards for a Kings of War Kingdoms of Men army.I went with 5th edition Empire Gold and Celestial Wizards.

Since KoW is pretty cool about unit filler, I wanted to give my characters the same kind of decorative base feel. I dug in the bitz box and pulled out some fun stuff to use. The rest of the pics are from a couple different angles.

Screaming Bell

Joe- This was the first model I painted for my Skavenseseseseses. It was really my first model I completed since my daughter was born, so I took my time. I'm still working on it, and it's definitely on the maybe list for the GD this year.

Game Classy Redesign

Hey Everyone, It's Joe here, and this will be the new homepage for the Game Classy crew. I'll be posting pics of Steve's and my own stuff.

I'll still be hosting the streaming podcast through Planet Arbitrary.

Here's the latest podcast

Necron BFG Fleet

As a hobby painter I do a lot of commissions for people. This recent one was done for the GW Chicago Battle Bunker. Apparently some contest winner won their choice of a free painted army, and they chose a Necron Fleet. I thought I would post the pics I took before I handed them off.

The Fleet was actually done with all GW paints which is unusual for me, because I'm a big proponent of Reaper master series.

The Metal was done by first basing the model in Tin Bitz, Then drybrushing Boltgun, Chainmail, and Mithril.

The Pyramids were Tinbitz, and line highlighted with Shining Gold, Burnished, and a tiny bit of Mithril

I then inked the whole model with with a 25/75 Thraka green and Gryphon Sepia, waited for it to dry. Then I did a Badab wash.

The green gauss effects were Orkhide, Snot, then a 25/75 mix of snot and skull. As per request, the little spark actions were added with a simple line of skull white.

The bases are Georgo 1", 2", 3" rounds. I printed some NASA starfields onto some sticker paper, and with some fancy Exacto handywork, stuck em on.

The models were connected to the base with Brass rod.

Now onto the models.
