Saxons, Robots, Romans, Survivors, Dogmeat, Junk, and More


Happy Sunday Distinguished Viewer,

     I've recently finished painting 33 more little guys.  There's recently been no rhyme or reason behind any of the choices.  I need a project to maintain focus on one type of mini, but I hate projects forcing me to focus.

Here are five Saxons from Renegade Miniatures.   I don't know how many of these stupid shields I've painted, but I know I'm getting lazier in my designs.  I'm glad the Normans destroyed their stupid army as I am tiring of painting their stupid shields.

I wish I had bought shield transfers.   It's too late now I probably have less than sixty left to paint.

Here are three near future combat robots Anvil Industries.  Anvil makes some of the best near future minis and robots which most likely pleases our future robot overlords.

Here's two Norman miniatures from Old Glory.


Looking at the picture, I realized didn't finish painting the yellow shield.  Stupid dumb shield painting.   If I was a medieval lord, my troops would not carry shields. Does anyone make shield transfers for Old Glory Normans?

Here are three post apocalyptic miniatures.   The middle one is from the old Vor game, available from Scotia Grendel.  I think she is called a Junker and works in Scotia Grendel's customers service department, the customer service department that promised (multiple times) to send missing vehicle parts for an order I made, which they never sent.

The outside two are old Copplestone sculpts available from Moonraker, Em4, or Mirliton, and probably more companies. The fat guy is in everyone's post apocalyptic collection.

Three Roman archers from Warlord.   And no shields!

I have three more almost done, that didn't make the photo shoot.

Some old OOP dwarf models from Citadel and Ral Partha.  

The Citadel guys were a gift from one of my favorite Grognards, Stan.   The guy on the right doesn't have a stupid shield.

Here's Dogmeat from the Mophidius Fallout Warfare game.  I painted real German Shepherd urine on the model to make it smell authentic.  I won't bore you with hassles involved in collecting urine from a dog you don't own.  And try not to lick your brush if you plan on using my scent method.

He's next to four terrain bits from Mantic's Walking Dead game.  Dogmeat's base looks awful and needs some cleanup.

Here's a rock (I think it's a bone fossil) on a base and two bits of Wizkids D&D scatter terrain.  The book has text from a language I spent seventeen years developing, while I lived in Tibet.

Here's an old GW servitor with a much newer genestealer cult mining laser arm, standing next to a Mageknight fish man thing.   The fishman has crystals on his base, that I collected from a geode I stole from a Temple of Thor, that I later smashed with a hammer, back when I lived in Iceland.

Lastly are three short robots from Denizen miniatures.   I have a few more in the painting que to add to my growing robot horde.  The little bits are quite bendy and the models should only be used by close friends wearing kid gloves, made out of real children.

  Till next time, my Beloved, when I'll have more random minis for you, your guess is as good as mine.  

Love,
Baconfat

XOXOXOXO

Kettle Helms, Stormtroopers, Squatkopta, Prussians, MFP and More!

Hello,

It's nice of you to visit.   I have a number of completed minis, to show you.  First up are six Essex Knights in kettle helmets, that I painted for a friend.



Here they are running away.  Painting spiral lance patterns isn't easy.

Fantasy Flight Stormtroopers.


I don't know where I got the head for the helmetless guy's head.



Here are three Warlord brand Prussian Landwehr with pikes.


I like the metal Warlord model backpacks more than the plastic models.


Here is a GW Tau drone, a Squatkopta, and a Brother Vinni robot.  Removing the ork and spikey bits from the kopta thing was an awful task.  I may not make three of these.

It's hard to see, but the squat has a "Gargoyle Gang" emblem on his vest.  Gargoyle gang are the good guys on the classic Johnny Sokko Giant Robot show.

Two Old Glory biker cops, without motorcycles.



Here are two Old Glory motorcycle cops and an Antenocitis Workshop police car.

If you haven't noticed they're painted to look like the "Main Force Patrol" from the Road Warrior film.

Here's a classic Ral Partha Orc and a random post apocalyptic survivor from EM-4.

I think you can get the post apocalyptic Copplestone sculpts for Mirlton too.

Here are two ancient GW dwarf (pre-slotta) models.

The guy on the right is the original "White Dwarf" (FS17, 1980).

Here are three Phalon clone models from the old Spacelords game range.  I think I stole their color scheme from Ironman comics.

You can get the Spacelord models from Moonraker Miniatures.

Here are two Deep Ones.  They are from Black Cat Bases.

I enlarged the wooden floor base with green stuff.

Today everyone posed on another rtv/paint/sand smeared on cloth 4' x 4' mat I made.


Till next time beloved viewers, when I'll have a gang of Ramshackle Squat bikers and jet-bikes.

xoxoxox

Love,

Rubbish, Rubbish, and Stuff Made Out of Garbage

Happy Sunday Purveyor of Pictures of Little Things,

Today I have garbage post of trash minis, junk made out of junk, and smashed dollar store toys.

First up is a car made out of a "Fast and Furious" toy car.   The driver, a Cadian Imperial Guardsman, is wearing a Star Wars Naval Trooper uniform.


The car body was removed and the new body is made out newspaper soaked in glue.  I needed the body for a different project.  The passenger is Valhallan Imperial Guardsman.



Here is a Old Glory biker that didn't get painted with all his fellows.


Here are a bunch of garbage cans from Antenociti's Workshop.  I wish Mr. Antenociti had been born Mr. Smith.  That name is impossible to remember.  I could remember Smith's Workshop.




Here are some garbage cans made out of clothing dye bottle tops, cardboard boxes made out of thin chip board soaked in glue, and an unfired projectile made out of some weird Dremel tool bit.


Here are some books made out of paper and clay (one has a human face), some Reaper Bones urns, and strange die I found in a cave near Dunwich.


Here is a wooden table and wagon from Wizkids D&D primed plastic line.


Here is a kitchen thing and a bathroom stall pulled out of toy camper van.

There's an unwashed sink and toilet inside, trailer trash.

Here are some signs that came with a dollar store toy.


Here are some resin wooden walls, whose manufacturer I can't remember.  I just dry brushed them grays, browns, and greens.  I still need to paint the corners, but can't remember what paints I used.


Here are some really cool Mantic Games "The Walking Dead" barricades.  I have no idea of what the green and yellow things are.


They're plastic and I honestly don't believe these garbage piles  would do much more than slow down zombies.


Here are some tire piles.  I smashed dollar store toys up with a hammer and stole their wheels.


Here is a building for a post apocalyptic junk town, I've been slowly working on.


It sound like someone is riding a motorcycle on the roof.   Ho, ho, ho, it's Biker Claus, bringing guns to all the bad boys and girls.


The corrugated colors remind me of Senegal's flag.


Here are some of the quickest roads I've ever made.  You can see one of the smashed dollar store toys on the second one.


I finger painted rtv onto used sand belts, sprinkled construction sand, spray painted brown, and dry-brushed.


Till next time, my beloveds, when I'll probably show you some more post apocalyptic vehicles and who knows what.

love and kisses,
Baconfat
