HE'S BACK! New Year and a New Project


Holy hell!  It has been a super long time since I have updated my blog.  I'll admit I have been pretty busy these last few months.  Factoring in the time off I took over the summer and adding the time I took due to home renovations...yeah, it's been awhile.

Anyway, lets take a look at what I decided to be my main project going into the summer.  I decided, if I want to buy one of the many board games GW has been pumping out recently, I need to cut down my miniature count a little.

So I decided to knock out some CONAN!


Now I had mentioned this a while ago.  I had gone through the whole process of basing, and base coating all the minis in the standard set.  Now I plan on painting the whole thing! All 105 miniatures will be painted an knocked out, hopefully, before the summer.  That way I can focus on a new summer of Terrain.

So without further ado, here are the first minis done in this new project,  15 Pict warriors:


I mixed up the skin tone on them, 5 of each going from darker Bugman's Glow to Tallarn Flesh (My poor OOP paint...I'm running out!), lastly to Khardic flesh from P3.  I'm trying to keep the colour scheme on these guys basic as it is just a board game, but I'm really happy with how they came out.

My main goal is to paint all the grunts in the set.  So it has 15 Picts, 15 Pirates, 15 Skeletons, 15 Guards and 10 Mummies.  Next up on the painting table, PIRATES!

Wish me luck!
