Next project


Since the Impact kickstarter has been delayed, I've started with something else and that something is my underworld/skaven team.

I gave underworld a go on Cyanide and really like the team. I guess I've got a soft spot for stunty players. I also got my hands on a 2nd ed shaven team and to that I added a 2nd ed troll and some goblins from Neomics.

I was inspired by this team
Awesome team from G-Painting
but it didn't turn out as I wished. Here's some wip pictures

I'm not happy with the pink/purple combination and I'm therefore going to skip it. Right now I'm thinking about keeping the pink armour (although changing it a bit) and going for a turquoise contrast colour as well as some white. I'm also thinking about painting the skin on the goblins and troll in turquoise (and their clothes white). (thanks for the input @howlinggriffon)

I also made a misstake in starting with all the shaven players at once. I should have done as with the 'flings. Starting with just the one player to get the colours right. I'm now going to go forward with just the one rat and find the right blends of colours, before painting the rest.

If I'm happy with the team, I might take them to some tournaments next year, but I'm not sure yet. If the Impact elves turn up soon, I might switch to that team, since I'd really like to play dark elves at a tournament sometime soon.

As it is now, I think this is my pipeline:
1. Underworld/Skaven
2. Orcs
3. Nurgle
4. Undead/Necro (repaint with 3ed miniatures)
5. Humans
6. Chaos Pact

where the elves might come in at place 1 or 2, depending on when they show up.

Who am I kidding? The list will change a couple of times during next year anyway :)
