the Ice Warriors cometh...

a quick distraction to get my mojo back (oddly have found painting a real chore since I bought new glasses - prescription did change, but can't really see what that has to do with anything)...

BTD Ice Warriors (since Jon at BTD was able to track me down an Ice Lord for the normal price as opposed to the tenner eBay would demand)... not much to them really, a lot of green (must do Tre's gobbo's at some point), bit of red... the GW washes came in handy...

need to finish the bases and varnish, but I like these as is really... half toying with doing some snow on the bases, but that's a bit dressy for my bases... tried to do some wrinkles/scales on the Ice Lords skin, but you can barely see it in the pics... I did a hint of teeth as well which seems just enough...


one of these guys will double as Harma in full Dalek Killer mode...

the lenses were a bit of a pig as, when you really look at them, I don't think a single one matches another... reds have come out better than I thought though... all in all, I'm happy enough and feeling mojo'd...

December update

well, ok the Sontarans aren't technically part of the update a month thingy as they were done mid 2008, just needed rebasing... however, I've not got much else finished at the moment, I'm working on some stuff for the Frother's game for Salute 2010 - ruined tower and some warbands, but I need to contribute more ruins - and am doing my first painting commission which may be my only one as it's not nearly as much fun painting for someone else...

the Frotherheim stuff will get a showing on here in time...

the good news is I've finally tracked down an Ice Lord which means I can finally do my Ice Warrior unit, which means I then need to finish my Draconians so they can both donate models to Abslom Daak and the Star Tigers...
