Sn-Ogre!?

I had a handful of ogres left over from a previous army so I thought I might stick one together as a test piece for the barbarians.
















I'm pretty pleased with how he's turned out - I'll probably end up painting another two or three so its more a game-able unit.

More Barbarians

I've painted up a couple more figures for the barbarians.
First up is a Slaine figure from Wargames Foundry. He's a wonderful sculpt - I decided not to paint him as Slaine is depiected and went for a colour scheme to match the rest of my figures. In retrospect I should have done a headswap to depart him from 2000AD a bit more - oh well!

I'm fairly pleased with how his fur cloak has come out. Though the metallics aren't as good as the last lot. 

Next up we have the marauder champion. He was released at the same time as the marauders from the last post. He's a decent sculpt but the pose is a bit awkward (I wouldn't wanted to have had to rank him up!)

Here he is leading his merry band of plunderers and pillagers. 

Celtic Swordsmen (and Swordswomen!)

Some celts today for my Of Gods and Mortals celtic force. The figures themselves are from Brigade Games' Celtos line (who bought the line from I-Kore or Urban Mammoth - I forget which). They are lovely clean miniatures and very nicely cast. 

I had a bit of trouble painting the tartan on them - so three of them just have plain kilts and the other two are fairly basic. The shield designs aren't anything special, by the time I sorted out the tartan I just wanted them off the painting desk. 

These might also see some outings in a Song of Blades and Heroes as there seems to be a bit of interest down the club in trying the rules out (which is great news - I love the game!)
