Kingdom Death:Monster – What have I gotten myself into??!!!

urgghhh it’s been a horrible amount of time since I updated my projects – I suck I know. Things have been crazy busy with RL, streaming and commission work BUT still managing to get a little KDM loving in! The Death High series are one of my favourite sub sets of KD and was gifted the second mini in teh series a wee while ago by a really kind friend and finally managed to get some paint on her.

The Death High Ring Tail Vixen

Furthering the quest to get some finished minis actually photographed, today we have one of my absolute favourites – The Death High White Speaker. An absolute joy to work on from start to finish. The base is scratch built simpley enough from cork coasters, grit/gravel and greenstuff for the tentacle for a cheeky wee nod to certain genres 😉 Hope you like her as much as I – Jan

Finally finally getting around to getting some decent photos taken of some of the minis n projects I have finished recently. First up from the KD:M prologue, one of the most irritatingly bad sprue cut minis out there – The White Lion.

After the horror of building this guy and ALL the damn filling he needed, he was a really enjoyable paint and I got to try out a few new things and learnt a lot along the way. Very happy with the result 🙂

Hope you like him 🙂  More Kingdom Death coming in the next few days

Havent posted in a wee while but have been busy at it. Since moving back to Ireland from Korea, life has been a bit………. hectic! Finally got studio set up and managed…. kind of…… to get back to streaming. Internet in rural Ireland is …… hmmm…..let’s put it this way, I have been considering looking into carrier pigeons o.O

Annnnnnnnyway – paint has continued to flow! KD:M wise I’ve been working on trying to clear a few more on the ridiculous stockpile I seem to have accumulated. Slowly working on the weaponsmith but still kinda stumped on a base to make for him…

Weaponsmith has taken a wee bit of a back seat though to the Death High White Speaker. Love love this mini. She’s not finished yet but getting close. Just need to finish up her bag and bokun and then its to final touches.

The base was pretty simple to make but goes nicely with the mini I think.

Just two layers of cork beermat and then gravel and grit. The tentacle is simply made from greenstuff. The road was painted up in layers of differnt greys, washed back down, layered up, washed back down and then a final overbrush of highlight. Mini and base were done almost exclusively with S75 ScaleColour paints

Working on this bad boy all day.  Not leaving my desk till he is finished!!! KD:Ms White Lion.  Break out the coffee – one way or another – he’s getting finished today!!!!

Finished up the Forsaker yesterday and well happy with him. The sword was a bit of an arse to get right but got there in the end. The base is very simply a bit of bark from the garden (Lawson Cypress apparently) painted up with some anthracite grey, ardennes green, graphite grey from S75, Schminke titanium white and washed back with a mix of nuln oil, coelia greenshade and lahmium medium from GW.

The Forsaker himself was done with a very limited pallet – VMC dark sea blue mixed with S75 flat black and anthracite grey for the armour then highlighted up wiht Schminke titanium white added. Helmet and mask – Ardennes Green, tenere yellow and ……….yup schminke white!!!

Any C&C – please feel free 🙂

Prologue survivors finally finished and a crappy photo taken! Glad to have them done and dusted and ready for the meat pit 😉

as my glasses are Still being awaited on ( >< ) more building and prepping goes on.  The Cloak of the Butcher always bothered me as the skulls were kinda comical and looked more like they came from Tim Burton than Adam Poots so I fixed them. Gouged out the originals and sanded down the back of some skulls from the GW box of skulls as replacements.  Much much happier now 🙂
