Mierce Miniatures

Grizzle

Thanks Rob, this isolation has done wonders for letting me focus on improving my painting.

Grizzle

Not updated on my progress for a while. What a fantastic, throbbing thing, and the penis ain't too bad either:

Grizzle

Nice use of zenithal highlighting, that Jotuun is looking awesome.

Grizzle

I'm going to have so many auger drune variants!

Grizzle

Bishuary looks well underway.

Cheers Bish and Lee.

I'm trying out a new style of painting. Might clash a bit with my other models though.

Grizzle

Well to kick things off here is my first set of painted models for 2020, 2 of my abhorrents with great weapons (featuring the resculpted Seza):

Grizzle

I have actually put in £30 today, in a vague hope.

I think the uncertainty is about accommodation and if it is going to go ahead and the booking prices + chance of getting money back, because it becomes more expensive nearer the date.

Grizzle

They look fantastic Gus.

Grizzle

Finally finished this ugly beast: https://i.ibb.co/dgQyHbd/20191202-111532.jpg https://i.ibb.co/RC6dV24/20191202-111448.jpg https://i.ibb.co/fMLhkkH/20191202-111440.jpg https://i.ibb.co/P14Thdd/20191202-111550.jpg https://i.ibb.co/LYSDRf8/20191202-111432.jpg

Yeah, was a very good game and I agree that those rolls were unlucky, would probably have swung the other way if they had been passed. My only bad luck was the Augur drune blowing up on a 70 temper shrive, but I'm notorious for that and it didn't matter much in the end, either. The mantichora was do...

Cheers
Rob

Yeah, that's a big vulnerability, playing this way.

Also, I'm down for popping up for some test games.

Grizzle

For Khthones I've also made some suggestions myself, like making use of stoskoular which have unseen and can emerge behind the lines to get at the sorcerers. Or maybe waiting till my casters are vulnerable and getting a low temper one with a spell like Fuse. My list was: War Drune (general) Host com...

Grizzle

I'm in.

Grizzle

And that's the last 5:

Grizzle

First 5 shadow drunes for my second unit of them, reversed the grey and rose-brown on their cloaks/wrappings:

The level of detail and fine workings without the aid of modern-machine precision is pretty astounding.

Was this befor ehte pen museum?

Same day!

Grizzle

A large portion of the hoard is currently on display at the Birmingham Art Museum; it's great for a look round. I went a few weeks back.

Grizzle

And that's a wrap on the 2nd brute unit...I need more storage boxes:

Grizzle

So me and Grizzle (aka Andy) are off to the Gotham and Samaria weekend Gaming event on Friday, hoping to introduce at least another 25 people into the Darklands Universe and have a fun time doing it.. If you don't know who they are, check out the Gotham & Samaria facebook group, they are a grou...

I wonder if they flew around in giant vivariums, a Khthone's worst nightmare?

Grizzle

Thanks Rob, I'm sticking to task on my Ysians, I really want to get every model I currently own painted, hopefully before around May-June next year, then start on my Albainn.

Grizzle

Next lot of brutes finally finished:

Grizzle

These look amazing.

Grizzle

More Ysians is always great, nice work!

Grizzle

Ah brutes, I love them so much I'm painting a second unit!

Grizzle

Finally finished the last 10 Ax drunes (with terrible freehand on the banner; not my strongest area): https://i.ibb.co/drYtG4G/Ax5.jpg https://i.ibb.co/WF6GSmC/Ax6.jpg https://i.ibb.co/gtvb7jq/Ax7.jpg https://i.ibb.co/9s9DjDw/Ax8.jpg

Grizzle

Just brilliant!

Grizzle

Finished another 10 ax drunes:

Grizzle

Finally finished my archers, perhaps a bit rushed at the end to get them done before I go back to work, but at least I now have 40 painted: https://i.ibb.co/nkrp6Z7/arch5.jpg Now I've just got to do my other 20 ax drunes... :cry: Some more lovely work Andy. How many minis does that put you on this ...

Grizzle

Considering you said you aren't that patient I think your freehand designs, like that banner, are on point. Nice work Jonathon!

Grizzle

Nice work on these, the tartan and tattoos look ace.

Grizzle

And here they are, 10 more archers, I've just got 10 more to do and thats 40 overall:

Grizzle

My Ysians are on a grasslands /heather and slate/rocks style. My Albainn are on grassy and heather, sort of plain, with a few rocks under a lightish snowfall effect. My Khthones I'm thinking barren, dusty rocklands, with some occasional muddy pools and maybe the odd bit of ruined temple sticking out...

Grizzle

You know I made a mistake in the 2018 one, when tallying up my painted I forgot to add in the manticore, which puts me at 128 for last year I think. (Your signature reminded me).

Grizzle

Thanks lads, well I've got some more infantry on the way next, I need to finish off my bowmen.

We live in a commune, and sit around camp fires and sing songs...

And sometimes I stand outside and knock at the window and pull faces.

Grizzle

Took me a while, but I finally finished my of my favourite (and I think many others) models in the range: https://i.ibb.co/WnNR7d8/chim1.jpg https://i.ibb.co/pw76DW2/chim2.jpg https://i.ibb.co/njGx0Jc/chim3.jpg https://i.ibb.co/dGmv14R/chim4.jpg

Oh yeah, Rob...what is an under-goblin? From the Vras banner text for Quick-Blade: Quick-blade is Blunt-Claw's favoured kin and thus assured of a much-vaunted place in his war-host, that of kin-caller, the one that calls the kin to battle and keeps them there. Few Warrior-vermin will break where Qui...

It’s such a gorgeous model but prefer the banebeast rat head over the goat Oh I like the goat, but I'd be tempted to get two for the alternate heads. I could magnetise, but I already own one.

Hey Rob, I've thought of a lore question that may well have been asked many times before, but it's concerning the Terror of Fortriu. Now here is the text from the website: " The cold mountains of Fortriu, in the far north where ice and snow hold sway, was the domain of a horror that none dare ...

Those Savrar look nice.

Great report!

They got deaded.

But will there be future conjuncts? There's plenty of numbers.

I know some will also be 'meldings' rather than stitched.

I love coming back to this blog, keep it up, you've given me lots of ideas for colour schemes.

Grizzle

More melusines, now I have a nice mainstay of 15: https://i.ibb.co/wdLt921/Melu3.jpg I really like the scheme you e gone with your army mate. Lovely colour palette and so cleanly done. Thanks Jonathon, truth is that being neat is pretty much the key to most good-looking schemes. It's also the part ...
