Blood Angels mouseling Dread........

To All,

A Blood Angels mouseling Dreadnaught. This is an anti-personnel Dread as it is equipped with lightning claws and a heavy flamer:

The Ultramarines Dread is anti tank, vehicle, and dreadnought with a Gatling gun and a power fist.

The pair should be formidable....

The Goblins call in some support......

To All,

In a previous post  I showed some  Brigade Games Goblin Space Wars figures
that are going to be in action on Friday night at Cold Wars.  Every other faction and race that is going to land on Planet P has some sort of heavy support so I figured that the goblins should have some, too. I painted up a Clanking Destroyer by Kromlech.

Here is the unit with the Clanking Destroyer. I painted it up using the same color scheme as the goblins so that it "fit" into the unit and didn't look like something that just showed up.

Grymn Heavy Support...

To All,

 Here we have the third unit of Hasslefree Miniatures Grymn. A Heavy Infantry Squad in Enviro suits. I went with an "Ultramarine scouts" paint scheme on them. My goal for the unit was 'decent 2-footer,' and I think I'm there.

 Their main purpose is to spray the battlefield with bolter shots. The Space Mice and the Moles should be wary on Friday night at Cold Wars.

Grymn Heavy Infantry Squad...

To All,

Here we have another Grymn unit - a Heavy Infantry Squad with helmets from Hasslefree Miniatures.

Grymn form Hasslefree Miniatures
I painted them in the same color scheme as the assault squad so that the units, if the scenario provides,  can be combined.

The Grymn....


To All,

The Grymn are Space Dwarfs created and sold by Hasslefree Miniatures. Here is the first unit I finished :
I figured this will be an assault squad - The two power armored Grymn can wade into the melee while the 'pistoleros' spray the enemy with a hail of rounds from cover.

Radon Zombies from Pulp Figures...

To All,

Radon Zombies of the Ionosphere
I finished the Radon Zombies from Pulp Figures last night. I took them off my painting bench to let them sit for a few days. Then I'll look at them and do any touch-ups and add some extreme highlights (I do this with all figures and stuff I paint).

I'm not going crazy on these figures - just getting them to be good "2-footers" for the game at Cold Wars. That's why I only went three shades.

Radon Zombies of the Ionosphere
For the leather hoods and gloves I used this series of DecoArt Americana browns. I like the Americana acrylics because the shades really work well together and they are consistent from bottle to bottle.
For the weapons I used GW metallics:
For the "energy" inside the weapons I used GW reds and orange:

Here are the Zombie leaders:

Goblin Space Wars from Brigade Games.....

To All,

I painted up some Brigade Games Goblin Space Wars figures. They are smaller than I'm used to painting (because the Gnomes are so large) but they have great detail on them.

This will be split into two 6-goblin units.

They will be in the fight on Friday night at Cold Wars....

Reaper Space Mouslings......

To All,

I haven't really painted anything in a year being on a self imposed hiatus because of some health issues and to work on the next version of Gnome Wars. If I'm honest with you (and myself)  the other 'Stout Gnomes' started doing their part for the rules and I slacked off. Before I get back in the Gnome Wars saddle, Mike Lung and I are going to put on a pulpy space game on Friday night at Cold Wars.

I started painting up some units for the game:

Reaper Mouslings painted up in the flavor of Ultramarines. Some modifications are the plasma gun & chain sword for the sergeant, the bolter, and a different "shotgun" barrel for one of the rifles.

The Dreadnought with Gatling gun and powerfist. I'm in the process of painting up a banner.
