Dwarf Captain

Here's a dwarf pirate/seafaring captain from Black Scorpion Miniatures I painted recently.

"concept drawings" (aka "doodles")

As requested, here are a couple of sketches from my unfinished (barely started!) comic. Something I just started for fun many years ago, but haven't done much with for quite a while. (I scanned the original pencil sketches and then "enhanced" them in PhotoShop Elements so you can see them better)

A Few Assorted Minis, Newly Painted

Dwarf lord celebrating the New Year. This is a GW miniature representing another take on their dwarf brewmeister Bugman. Apparently someone knocked his beer over!

Some kids from Hasslefree minis. I don't know if they have anything to do with large felines, magic-using females, or bedroom furniture (not being familiar with stories where such things are mentioned...).

More Greens

Some sci-fi minis I sculpted many moons ago. These are all characters from a half-finished comic I was trying to draw. The unpainted greens are fungoid pirates, the scum of the galaxy (actually, they're not so bad, just a little rotten). The big furry guy is Louie (or Loupacca).

A Few Odds and Ends

You ever come across old minis you had lying around somewhere half-forgotten?

In honor of Halloween here are some old GW skeletons and orc archer.
And another band of heroes. I think they're all GW/Citadel minis.

From the back, mostly so you can see the shields of the 2 warrior women.

Next, some old greens I sculpted quite some time ago. Practice pieces, not sure I'll ever do anything with them.

Goblin with sword, he'd be holding a shield with the other arm/hand.

Some halfling archers. Terrible faces! ha ha

And a couple more. I think the one with the horn isn't so bad, but I need a LOT more practice!

A halfling hiker, mayor, and an Alice in Wonderland walrus.

Encounter in the Ruins

Heroes fighting assorted orcs and goblins among some old overgrown ruins. I made the ruins a few years ago using the round tower mold from HirstArts.
A female barbarian and female fighter, manufacturers unknown. I've had these a long time time, painted ages ago.

Old GW orcs and gobbos, also painted ages ago.

A Few Bad Orcs (and others)

Some orc arrer boys - there are another 4 who didn't make it for the picture.
Swamp trolls

Stone trolls. The second one from the left, with spiky helmet and bits of armor is a Blood Bowl character, but in my games he just represents a tougher troll (take basic troll and increase some stat).Skeleton - I think this is the only skeleton in my collection. He's an old Citadel metal miniature.

Wild boar, badger and sabretooth tiger. I think these are all old Reaper minis.

ROUS's - rodents of unusual size. Also Reaper minis, if I remember correctly.

I think that's the full collection up to this point. I don't paint fantasy minis so often these days, so it will likely be few and far between postings of more minis (unless I come across any I haven't posted yet).

I've been considering rebasing some of my fantasy minis for HOTT games (Hordes of the Things). Tim and his players make it look like such fun! I'd want to see if it can be played solo.

The other thing I may do one of these days is try a Mythic campaign using some of my fantasy minis. If I do HOTT or Mythic I'll post reports on this blog.
