Finally, something is finished! After nearly three weeks I have something to show.
So I finally got my multi-bases started and I was pretty happy with the result.

| Fire and Brimstone |

I've never used cork before, but I can't figure out why. That stuff is totally invaluable; brilliant texture (even on the worked, top surface) and it makes really organic (organic rock!?) looking formations.
Once topped with some of my painted figures, they looked like this:
 |
| My completed Blacksouls troop |
Despite there only being 7 of them (I only intend to make my infantry ~2/3 dense), I have painted 10 in total (so no-one can whinge about my not satisfying the Duel rules.

| A regiment of Decimators |
 |
| Actually two troops. These will become part of my horde. |
In addition to finally getting some results, here are some shots of the Great Obsidian Golem.
 |
| Arguably the best Mantic figure I've built so far |
This guy was great to build; few pieces, ball & sockets on both arms
and head, injection sites broke off easily and required little filing. I haven't been so impressed with some of the older Mantic figures, but this guy is brilliant!

| A bubble int he knuckle |
|
Sadly, one of the pieces had a massive bubble in the finger. Now I know that Mantic will send me out a replacement, no questions asked (I know this, because I've had them send me stuff twice now). I'm not going to ask for two reasons:
- It'll take too long.
- If I paint it right, it will just look like another crack in the body
- I've angled that fist down.
Good Times!
I really like the look of the Abyssals those evil dwarf types are very nice and I love the basing. Lava bases can look so good and it looks like you have captured the "heat" well.
ReplyDeleteThose lava bases look very nice.
