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

7TV Post Apocalyptic Survivors, Randos, Tech Gangers, Fallout Mutant Hounds, Graves, and a Corrugated Junk Pile

Hello Distinguisher Viewer,

Today there are fifteen small things for you to look at.

First are three minis from Crooked Dice's 7TV Apocalypse game.

Reverse pic

Comparison with a Copplestone/EM4/Moonraker miniature, the Copplestone mini is shorter, but people vary in sizes.  I don't see why the older sculpts can't mix with the newer ones.

A Reaper WWI pilot, a Warlord Prussian Officer, and a WW2 German of unknown manufacture.

Here's two ancient Citadel Confrontation/Necromunda Tech Gangers with a Games Workshop Last Chancer model.  The one on the left has an Old Glory/Blue Moon robot arm added to it.

The two Citadel models have newer GW Cadian arms and flame thrower pack added.   I didn't use original arms for them.

Here are two Mophidius Fallout mutant hounds and an old Citadel model from back when the Imperial Guard or Astor Milliputorium was called the Imperial Army.

I wish I had painted the Guardsman red to match the earlier three red models.

An Old Glory Norman casualty.  I have hundreds of not casualty Old Glory Normans to paint.

Here are three resin grave models.   I can't remember who made them. The big one had a body in it which I Dremel tooled out.

The smaller gravestones broke off after I bought and dropped them.  The gravestones are made out of foam now.  The one on the right has a coffin made of matchsticks in it.

They sit quite high on the table.

Here's a crappy looking post apocalyptic outpost made only out of scrap pieces from earlier projects (and cereal box).

 It may look awful, but it does double as a topper to make my big rig look post apocalyptic.

Top view.

I plan on making more removeable armor or spikey thing add-ons to make the rig a proper war rig.

I wish I could find the missing headlights.

Till next time, when I'll probably have some Oldhammer dwarves, Saxons, post apocalyptic stuff, and who knows what else.

Love,
Baconfat

28mm Gaslands, Rogue Trader Pirates, Post Apocalyptic Vehicles, HYW Cavalry, Table Clutter, Imperial Guardsmen, Tank Traps, Shelves, and More

Greetings Distinguished Viewer of Things Miniscule,

I have an assortment of junk to show you today.  First up are two cars for 28mm Gaslands gangs.  They're metal toys found at a yard sale.

I don't know their "scale", but they fit well with 28mm minis.

The arrow is pointing to a secret noise button.  I stole engine revving, flashing light, horn honking car noises from dollar store toys.

Here are some Citadel Rogue Trader era pirates and mercenaries.  Some had great names like Breakout Con and Hacker Harris.

Here's a much newer GW robot.  I like a lot of the newer Adeptus Mechanicus models.

I think it's called a Kastellan.

Here's a camper I found at a drug store and modified for the apocalypse.  The couches were ripped out of interior prior to painting it.

 I should have used manufactured barbed wire, instead of making my own.

I painted a couple old Imperial Guardsmen in Star Wars Naval Trooper colors.

A dollar store toy repainted.

A couple more dollar store finds.

A Copplestone survivor and a Rogue Trader model called "Punk".

Here are some store shelves from Old Glory.

Here are some cabinets, also Old Glory.

Here are some battlefield scatter and a car fro The Walking Dead miniature game.

I tried to paint a girly mag on one of the loot pieces.

Here are some tank traps made out of florist foam.

Here are some dollar store toys smashed to look like old husks.

Some grass patches, they stick well to felt mats, not my rubber mats.

Here are "I don't know whats", they're super glue lids.

I often make building interiors for a game I'll never play.

 another one.

a real grungy one, bad things have happened here.

Here are nine HYW cavalry from Essex, that I painted for a great friend.

Lastly I tried to make my own Star Wars miniatures game.  Mine attempt is of course the clumsy looking one on the left.

In the back ground are previews of future posts.

Till next time, love and kisses,
Baconfat
