And I would have loved to see some close up greens of that bighat champion

hehe, a little late to take some unpainted pics of him, isn't it? ^^ is there something you cannot see on the WIPs in the converting section?

ehem, okay... what comes next? ahh....

BY HASHUT, run, run RUN AWAY, it's alive and it's... evil! with an evil club Hashut!

yay! ^^ Takes Hat off
by the way, if anyone missunderstand it, i didn't sculpt the mini, i kept it for years and now i wanted to paint it. it's an old GW Familar... love the mini ^^
Okay, what i've finished this week, you see here:

yay, these are my Bolt Throwers. i painted the hobbos in different shades of green. and... rust is cool ^^
i like this photo more, you see the colours better on it:
comments welcome ^^
hehe. with what? and how shall i do that, they are finished Happy

Is 2 enough for you? Seriously aren't there more coming?


no... i hate these f***in' BTs, i even wouldn't use one, but i like the minis so much, so i everytime chose two for my army ^^. i would prefer more Rockets, or some orcs or blorcs or... everything else, but not more BTs ^^

@cornixt: the puppet costs 3€ (don't know how much dollar) in the mail order, so a unit with 21 of them would be too expensive ^^. but is will put him into my planned scratchbuild ragdoll unit Takes Hat off

@Lord Darkash: .... i think, you should build your own "harpoons" ^^
dammed, why doesn't anyone copy me? Hashut!

pretty easy, just use high thinned brown for the effect (for my BTs: Scorched Brown, Bestail Brown and then Blazing orange) on a black basecoat... yep ^^
hey-ho, blessed ones of Hasuhut Takes Hat off

before you forget my beloved Dwarf Factory, i'll show you my new lil' fiends. here they are without paint



yes, you're right... puppets! ^^ these are my Nikkits, Hobbos without anything. i made them out of milliput and green stuff and it was quite quick to build them.
but even more quick was it to paint them:




i started on monday, yesterday i finished them. needless to say that i don't spend the whole day with painting ^^. you see the scarecrow is missing. i bought some dark age miniatures and want to paint 2 or three before i'll work on the "champ" of my puppets.

stay tuned for more Takes Hat off

ohhh why hashut can you not let me do things like that Angry


i sacrifices millions of slaves before hashut gave me the inspiration. he want me to inspire to do the same Takes Hat off

YEAH, disturbing is gooood ^^

i made the flames of the bigger puppet similar like the method which is told here http://us.games-workshop.com/games/warha.../putty.htm.
for the smaller puppet i made little spkey sausages of GS and added one by one. they are both quite effective and i cannot decide which technique i prefer.

EDIT: by the way, what you cannot see on the pic is the second burned puppet of the pase from the smaller one. it's painted like the ground, so you for you it's quite invisible ^^
the scarecrow is from RAFM, they produced some beautiful scarecrowminis. i have them for years, but no use for them and now my favorite one bacomes part of my army, what a honour Takes Hat off

this is sick, man... i love it! Takes Hat off

greetings, twisted servants of the father of darkness,

as you've seen, i'm pretty rare in this forum right now. the reason isn't that i've stopped serving Hashut, but i was very busy preparing myself for traveling around in central america for some months. i will return in april and i hope, that i'll have some time to make my BCs, the ES and some hobbos to have at least 1000 points, to finish a project.

but i know it is my duty to answer questions like

AIB234 Wrote:
I must know how you did your metals and the reddish/orange?


this is very easy, i started with very thinned scorched brown on black primer. after that, i washed it with vermin brown, also with a huge part of water in it. than blazing orange... and you are right, you have to give a lot of water into the paint ^^. now you have rusty BTs. now you can drybrush it with a metal colour, but i prefer to paint some mithril silver on the edges. if you paint is "manual" instead of drybrush it, it takes lot of time, but looks... clearer ^^

muahaha, thank you a lot guys, i'll give the best to return creative and productive ^^

All are 'EE' inspired....

this is, what you wish Tongue

okay, back again, since allmost 2 months. but i was pretty lazy at first with doing CDs, but i was so busy with getting drunk play playstation and go on parties. and i red lots of book. for you, everything of that is unimportant Takes Hat off. then i converted a lot and didn't paint at all.
well, it will take me a lot of time, since i paint the whole unit (especially because i need a lot of new colours, but don't have any money Big Grin), so i present to you, now, my converted hobbo-unit WIP! ^^.

the picture is bad, i know, but i don't care. i like it, when you can't see everything right now, be patient, servants of Hashut ^^
later more... much later, now i prefer to build a Gaoler Takes Hat off
but yeah, i'm back again to answer your questions for a donation of just one slave per question Happy

Anyone else want to putbtgeir brush down after looking at Snots stuff?


wait till you see them painted *muahahahaha*
i'm just kiddin', thanks for the nice feedback Takes Hat off

yep yep, there are Skaven parts in it, skaven, zombies and dwarfs are most used. i wanted to make something which look like gobbos, but which is no gobbo. the result is a group of hobbos where everyone looks unique (but still not much like a hobgoblin... maybe i shall call them Chaos Goblins ^^).
the Big Guy is the troll of the bfsp box, inspired by the blind killer-monsters in Resident Evil 4 (my favorite game ^^)
and i like the helmets, too ^^. they are kind of funny, unique, easy to make and give them a militairy look. i tried to give my Hobbos a new special style, but nobody wants to copy it Happy

Hashut's Blessing Wrote:
Curious as to which model the hangman is from...

you have to pay me one slave for this information!
but i trust you so i answer now Cheers!. this is simply a gobbo standard bearer from Gamezone. i gave him a mask ^^

i felt in love with him, too, after i saw him. i thought, this is exacly the standart i need ^^. the only whing i don't like are the materials my army don't use: wood and even more... hay... he will stand right on a lava base with a hay-puppet Happy
there are four bfsp-gobbos in it, i used the shaman, two have just handweapons instead of spears and helmets and one is made the "xander-way" (i wanted to test it, but xander is the master in this style Takes Hat off).
don't forget to pay me, i don't want to become a rich Dawi Zharr but Znoth the Infernal needs more slaves to send them to Zharr-Naggrund (you have to know, he has some problems with the traditional, conservative government Respect to the Hat!)
slave trade is fun Happy

I am always looking for movement trays and I really loathe buying up a ton of them just for easy storage!  Hope you don't mind me stealing that!  Cheers!


you can "steal" it, the idea is not even from me. a friend of mine had the idea as we started playing warhammer, many years ago. he don't play anymore, but his movement-trails-idea is still on the battlefields (i just increased the quality by using plasticard instead of paperboard for the ground Happy)

and nope, i don't think that i will paint them soon, i decided to convert a lot now, before i paint everthing... i still don't have 1000 points and i don't want to play with the stupid bfsp-cannon as a ES or beastmen as BCs and so on... then i would prefer to play with the complete converted minis... even if they are just black... i think, everyone of you can understand me ^^
but hey, i hope i can present you a painted Gaoler, soon Takes Hat off
