the Skarrd are coming

I've been working on some Dark Age minis for the upcoming con, namely a new army called the Skarrd.
I just finished 2 Toxic Mistresses, and and worked on 2 Bolas, a Father figure and the Grafter.
I took some pics of the TMs but have to redo them possibly tonight. Will need to find a nice background though, something sci-fi, dark and gloomy, maybe H.R. Giger related ?

So many pictures...

did I take last weekend (maybe 4 or 500 ?)taking full advantage of the super macro mode of my new camera. This function is excellent by the way, but it comes with a serious drawback : you can see all the tiny imperfections on painted minis...
Anyway, why are there no new pictures ?
Simply because I entered the best in the contest hosted by Wyrd-games and that i'll wait untill early november to put them on the blog or else I might be "disqualified".
I entered 2 dioramas and 3 single minis
Diorama 1 is a face off of 2 flying creatures about a pumpkin (it fits the halloween theme)
Diorama 2 is a castle piece with a falsely quiet scene...I will say no more
The 3 minis are a banshee, a Ghost and the Rackham gargoyle.
In the meantime I worked on the ruin CDs for the Dark Age demos and spraypainted all 3 in black.
Next project : painting Skarrd ! Scott suggested a purple grey scheme; let's see how it goes...

a VOW OF SILENCE

I have been quiet for one month, not really due to a vow of silence, but because I was kept so busy at work that I was simply too tired to work much on the different projects that normally occupy me.
Now, I'm back !
so what's new ? First I bought some new supplies in order to try making some artificial water for the egyptian dungeon fountain pieces that still need to be built. I have a trial piece though and will see if I can use the new transparent resin on it sometime soon.
The next thing on my mind is the Halloween contest at www.wyrd-games.net/ for which i'm preparing a very special diorama and maybe one or two painting submissions. It is in the final stage and I will be posting WIP or sneak peek pictures this weekend but not the final ones since they are reserved for the contest itself.
Also, i have finished painting a rackham gargoyle : pictures have to be retaken and will be posted by the weekend, because I hope to get nice comments on them...
The next project involves painting some Skarrd minis for the Dark Age game demos that Scott and myself will be hosting at Gamecon 1, the very first Malaysian game convention... Scott started working on a terrain board with a sandy desert look and i promised to work on some ruin pieces based on discarded CDs...
