A is for Amazons. (Done)

I have painted the Amazons ... well most of them.
There are a few bits I still need to do ... but they are nearly done.
I can't settle on what I want to do with warpaint.

The Tribeswomen:















The Bodyguards:















With a Nobel:















The Kalim:

The Nobels:

All together:















Characters are not finished yet but included in this picture.

A is for Animal Handlers ... and Animals

I painted up some Elf Animal Handlers to go with the animals I painted before:
Still need to add some Warpaint but going to wait until I get into my Elves before I decide exactly how this will look.

Here they are with their animals:

A is for Albion (Again)

Painted the other Albion Giant:

... and this guy

Here they are ... together at last:

A is for Aragorn

My fave character when I first read the books and then again when I watched the films was Aragorn.

I have these:

... and I have these from the first time Citadel produced some LotR minis:

... and here they are with some paint on them:

A is for Ant

If you have followed my project logs (or just check out my He-Man, Beastman, Yeti Giant in an earlier post) you may know I have a thing for using cheap plastic toys whenever I can. So I am loving my latest addition.

It reminds me of the make do and mend mentality I had to have as a youngster when I could not afford all the minis I wanted (and plastic zoo animals and toy soldiers stood in for all kinds of things) and then it just makes me smile to field a Giant thats bigger than everyone elses that cost me £2 on ebay rather than £30-£50 for a Giant made for gaming.

Well for my D&D games I need a Giant Ant. (Who doesn't? Right?)
I had a look on the interwebz and couldn't find anything very much but then I remembered my boy had a tube of cheap plastic bugs ... so on the off chance I asked him if there was an ant amongst them?

There was ... Here he is (Popped him on a 40mm base).





























And here he is with a nice new paint job (just needs a bit more shine ... some gloss varnish).

A is for Adventurers ... Fantasy Adventurer Cavalry

Citadel produced a range of Fantasy Adventurer Cavalry to match their Fantasy Adventurers.
I have painted a few of my favourites.

FAC 2 Mounted Wizard with staff

FAC 6 Mounted Bard withs word and Lute

FAC 8 Mounted ranger with sword and bow

FAC 9 Mounted barbarian with two handed sword

FAC 10 Mounted Paladin with sword

FAC 12 Mounted Ninja (Assassin) with sword

FAC 14 Elven Hero with sword

FAC 17 Mounted female theif with dagger and sack

 

FAC 29 Mounted Dwarf Champion

And here they are all together ... Hope you like them.

A is for Albion ... Giants of Albion.

I have been painting  a bunch of Giants over recent months and 'A' is a good excuse to get a couple more painted.
The Giants of Albion were released as one of the 'Dogs of War' units.
Like many of the minitures produced as 'Dogs of War' they are great sculpts, full of character.

Pictured here for an idea of scale:

and amongst the others giants I have been working on ...
