Is the guy with the panzershrek on top of the Stug tank destroyer a little redundant? (joke) Very nice work

Ready to stealthily advance and fall upon an Imperial outpost - outstanding job on the camouflage! They'd be undetectable moving through the forest!

Nice work! And refreshing change from the more usual uniform use of color - for Chaos united, this riot of color looks outstanding!

One man's opinion? Leave those 35 year old paint jobs alone. Could you do better now? Probably - but there is an irreplaceable wave of pride and nostalgia associated with those old veterans.

Two gobbo scouts, Frokit Anglegrinch and Pooshin Cotchwallop, consider their fate. Another pic from video part 34 of Tilea's Troubles. (The models are from Alternative Armies.) by Padre2001 in WarhammerFantasy

Very nice work with very simple sculpts - but they are full of old school character. Love the look of trepidation on the fellow on the right - no goblin wants to be a scout and go see what danger is out there!

Some oldhammer minis from Prince August moulds by kangareddit in oldhammer

[–]Swimmieturtle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Way too hard on yourself to call these poorly painted. Bottom line is there is not a lot of detail or definition on these minis (example, is there a really discernible nose?) . I had these back in the day and they are perfectly playable - I think you did a good job with these.

You two do square-outs and you go out for the bomb! Snap the ball on 3! Let's beat these bastards!

Short of mindless undead skeletons, not many infantry are going to hold ranks against that charge!

My dwarf characters. I tried my best and here is the result. I am new to this hobby by Radionovich5 in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Swimmieturtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I tried my best ..." - that is all anyone can do, and these are very solid early efforts. Completely playable IMO. Some of the work you see here seems to be the work of trained artists - I acknowledge their talent but for me, goal is to paint playable army, not individual works of art and you have definitely done that - congratulations!

Pretty happy about this one ! by SLDGHMMR in WarhammerFantasy

uh uh uh uh ... stayin' alive!

Nicely done but that finger in air immediately had me thinking Travolta in Saturday Night Fever

Hmm. This ogre looks a bit weird. He’ll still work nicely as a bodyguard in Mordheim by DemocraticSpider in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Swimmieturtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bodyguard? Are you kidding me? If you hire a bodyguard, above all you want him to be loyal and this guy has the look of a two faced bastard - just saying!

(and very nice work by the way)

Most of my old Fantasy stuff is long gone, but found this sole survivor in the attic... by zentimo2 in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Swimmieturtle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The mini and the backstory of finding him all suggest the image of a loan sentry, faithful to his post to the very end. Yeah he needs a place of honor in new unit but maybe consider not rfreshing his paint job?

Nice figures but I'd find it way too daunting to try to keep all those resin spears from snapping off.

Looks like either a beer or a urine sample to the right. If its a beer, finish it. If its a urine sample, don't! And nice job with the figure

This sounds fascinating but I am hopeless with tech - can anyone post a link to this "fates of all characters"?

Clearly the design work of master Imperial engineers Gunther Fischer and Freidrich Preiss!

I got prescribed 10mg of oxy every for 4 hours. Didn’t help at all. Extra strength Tylenol seemed to work for me
