Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt8

Here's the last four Sheriffs completed!

That's me done and dusted till forgeworld opens hehe. 

Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt7

Just a quickie today, here are the dismounts for my four heroes of the shire:

I think these are the original hobbits from the first metal fellowship box, i picked them up cheap on ebay, clipped off Frodo's sword and painted them up to match the mounted versions as best as possible.

Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt6

Next up from me are the four Heroes of the Shire:

Frodo of the Nine Fingers & Samwise the Brave

Meriadoc, Captain of the Shire and Peregrin, Captain of the Shire

The four Hobbits on foot i intend to use as dismounts have arrived and have the undercoat drying on so they will be started shortly hehe.

Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt5

Next up are the remaining Hobbit Milita:

Closing in on the finish for the project now, next up will be the four Heroes of the Shire on pony's hehe.

Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt4

I finished off some more of the little buggers today:

Hobbit Archers

Hobbit Sheriffs

Im rotating round the limited pallet of colours for these regular Hobbits so each one will be an individual in the force rather than regimented soldiers like most of the factions in the game.

Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt3

Next up for this is the four forgeworld Hobbits i have:

Holfoot Bracegirdle and Robin Smallburrow

Will Whitfoot and Baldo Tulpenny

My extra Hobbit Archers, Sheriffs and Militia arrived today so another update soon!

Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt2

Im continuing to work through the models for our Scouring campaign, and here's the next lot:

Hobbit Militia

Farmer Maggott with Fang, Grip and Wolf

Fatty Bolger, Archer with war horn, Lobelia Sackville-Baggins and Paladin Took

Next up will be some of the recent forgeworld characters specifically from the campaign book.

Lord of the Rings: Scouring of the Shire Pt1

So a few weeks before Judgement Day happened a friend and i were discussing the Scouring of the Shire campaign book, and how cool it would be to play through all the missions! A few quick browses on GWs site and divvying up the forces (Me Hobbits, him Ruffians) and the first purchases were made.

Judgement Day has put a kibosh on actually playing it yet but we have both begun to paint up our collections, and here are my first offerings:

Hobbit Sheriffs

Hobbit Archers

I went through the scenarios and added up all the individual models that i would need to play through and has so far picked up most of them:

12 Hobbit Militia, 8 Hobbit Sheriffs, 8 Hobbit Archers, Farmer Maggott & Doggies, Holfoot Bracegirdle, Robin Burrow, Will Whitefoot, Baldo Tulpenny, Hamfast Gamgee, Folco Boffin, Fatty Bolger, Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, Paladin Took, Farmer & Rosie Cotton, Merry, Pippin, Sam and Frodo.

Least they are all pretty small! 

  

Confrontation: Ira Tenebrae

So a real blast from the past today! Three Ira Tenebrae to add to my Drune army hehe:

These have sat unpainted for about five years above my head on the paint station, finally they get their time to shine haha.

Lord of the Rings: Goblin Town done at last

These last twenty two little beggers mean i can put this project to bed finally!

Now that this army is done i can look at getting my Moria and Thranduils Halls forces completed whoop.

KIngs of War: Mutant Rat Fiends

Whilst working on my Ratkin army i've always wanted to keep it pure Mantic; supports the company and makes it legal for their big events should i ever decide to go hehe.... but there are a few entries in the list that have had me perplexed over what and how to add them.

One of these is the Mutant Rat Fiend, a fantastic monster and one of the armies big hitters... I asked on the main facebook group and got some great ideas, and settled on these:

Plague Aberrations from the Deadzone/Warpath ranges form the base model then i've added heads & tails from the Veermyn Night Terrors with a little conversion work and i think they do the job nicely.

Lord of the Rings: Moar Goblins!

Next load of Goblins are done:

Crappy Goblins

Less Crap Goblin (Captain)

There are still 22 of them to do haha!

Lord of the Rings: Goblins Goblins Goblins!

We are now reaching some of the deeper levels of the pile of shame, and have come across my unfinished Goblin Town army for Lord of the Rings. There is quite the haul of these little beggers to do:

Here's 27 of a total of 73 haha, i need to smash these out asap!

Judgement: Thrommel Ironbeard

Just a single model today, the last of my collection of Judgement models that has sat half done for about 6 months haha:

Thrommel Ironbeard is a super tanky Dwarf Defender class model and an absolutely gorgeous model to paint! Hopefully i will be able to play Judgement again in the near future....

Age of Sigmar: Feculant Gnarlmaws

After what seems like an age i have finally got these poxy trees painted haha:

The evil trees have been sat in various stages of completion for about two months now, i would do bits on them every now and then but never get very far until this weekend and i was able to finish them whey!

He-Man Miniatures Game: Kobra Khan

Just arrived is my copy of Kobra Khan:

I went for a more modern take on his scheme with the look from the 2000 series of MoTU, again a superb sculpt that was a joy to paint!
