Real Life is fun right.....

Well its been a while but RL got really busy for a while but finally i have had some time to paint a few mini's. Not only did i get some dudes done i also dived head first into molding and casting my own resin bases.

Using pinkysil and easycast i have done.....

First mold poured and setting

Both molds 10x 32mm, 5x 40mm, 2x 60mm. First casts

Also i'm in the process of designing both Scheme markers, Scrap and Corpse markers.

Getting my paint on

So after a really busy day i decided to call a fellow paint splasher and invite him over. He is currently working on *cough (Chaos) Dark Angels for a slow grow 40k group.

 So i continued with painting the members of Ramos's crew.

On a side note i am also in the process of constructing a Malifaux Table topper.

Design so far....

Moving house is it fun.........

As the title indicates i moved house at the beginning of march. OMG not moving myself again...

Anyways during the downtime either side of the move i have been doing a little painting and planning for Malifaux.

Painting Wise:

Ramos and his crew (current) had their bases painted in a terracotta / red brick finish.

Planning Wise:

The design of the fold up malifaux board i'm going to start building (tomorrow hopefully)

Furthermore i acquired a Battlefoam Malifaux bag to carry the members of the crew to battle:

I will add some more WIP pictures now we have finished the moving process.

Ramos's New Coat

As you might be able to tell by the title i have been working on the master of the Miners and Steamfitters Union. I focusing on a triad colour palette of brass / khaki / purple. To achieve this palette im using

Khaki - Game Air #72.761
Royal Purple - Game Colour #72.016
Brassy Brass - Game Air #72.758

So here's some pics of what i did over the Christmas holidays.

Custom Bases - went for a stone brick street look - inspired by Victorian London.

Assembled and Undercoated

Ramos complete all but the base.

Now i just need to settle on the colours of the flagstones of the base
