The plastic was very tough to get through with my craft saw. After what seems an age, the great heavy head fell off and the Orcs cheered. They soon stopped when they saw the angry head being wired into place.

I had to try a couple of different fur techniques, for this chunky, thick fur, I went for the classic GW wolf pelt look. This is the one where you cut lots of little triangles into the putty and push them up.

Beorn laughs at his new coat... Hopefully that's a good sign he likes it.

I did take the opportunity to bulk up his hump while applying the putty. I will also add some to his forelegs and make them a bit more shaggy.

It's all about patience with greenstuff, don't rush it and give the first stuff time to harden.

By the time he realized it was too late.

The funniest thing I've seen in weeks, this bought a tear to my eye.

Sorry, this never gets old.

The model I selected for Beorn looked great, he was big and furry, but didn't look fierce enough. I soon came up with a cunning plan to buy another toy I had seen and splice them together. Luckily the toys were the same scale and operation Beorn again was on.

Battle of the beasts.

Update: Beorn is now has thick fur to stop any orc blade. Hopefully when painted, he should look a bit more ragged and crazy.

He is now looking a look more the part...

Beorn picks up Thorin and takes him to safety.

Dwarven re-enforcements arrive just in the nick of time. It was so much fun to painting these guys again after a couple of years of history stuff.

Most of these are Asgard miniatures with a few Citadel figures sprinkled in.

The greenstuff came out again as I had a bit more to do on Beorn. While it was mixed up I sculpted a few more Dwarf packs.

Beorn gets some more shaggy patches, this should make him look a bit more rugged and wild.

A Dark age Irishman gets a new cloak from the spare putty laying around. This is a crude sculpt as the putty was almost dry. I did manage to get it into some kind of shape and gave it a rough material texture.

The new company was put straight to work keeping the wildlife in check.

A fallen warrior is moved to the rear.

This bear needs to be completed and move on, he is costing me a fortune in honey.

I'm enjoying making these simple packs. Nothing too taxing but very rewarding.

Lake Town and Beorn

I've been messing around adding to the bear to days and trying not to rush myself. I'm so desperate to get some paint on it that I almost started today. However, I stopped myself and just added a bit more fur. This time I also ad buyded some to the bears face and now I'm finally happy with it.

Cheeky!

Some more help turns up to bolster Lake town and just in the nick of time.

Two of these bases are really shoddy militia types. Pitch forks are a great short hand for 'rabble'. I can't imagine they will hold for long against the goblin horde.

Another hero base .

I think he looks angry, ragged and damn right mean now...let's get him painted up.

Dwarf King in the shield wall

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Sat, 05 Oct 2024 21:00:00 +0000

A Dwarf king and his elite guard take to the field.

Amongst the Eagle helms of the shield wall is the kings champion himself. Nothing must get to the king and the champions blue axe, will see that nothing does.

I could use this base for King Balin when he tries to retake Moria. A future project of mine.

The King points out floors in the enemies formation to the chief engineer.

The Dragon standard flies over head echoing the Kings mighty dragon helm.

This base has been created for the upcoming Hobbit battle, replacing Dain's base in the ranks. This allows Dain to roam freely as a character on the field.

The figures are beautiful old sculpts from Asgard and Citadel. There has been a bit of tweaking on a couple of them, like the axe and the standard.

Hobbit Production Line

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Tue, 08 Oct 2024 09:00:00 +0000

Here is Beorn in his full fury. He has been given a Matt varnish that really helped. This proved even more effective once his mouth, eyes and nose was given a coat of gloss varnish. This brought him to life and gave him a sparkle in his eye.

I ended up putting more and more greenstuff on him until he was completely covered. It's good to have him covered in thick, shaggy fur as he looks more wild and rugged.

The Eagles are coming! Eagles and White wolves get their various layers of flock.

A lovely new Reaper miniatures Dwarf joins the latest group of Dwarves. Reaper make great 'hero' figures to adorn any warband. They can be quite large sculpts so it can be a risky business ordering them, this one is perfect though.

Beorn's base has to be 24cm wide for the game I'm playing, so two side bases were made. These bring the base up to the right measurement and allow for more bear carnage.

Beorn with his slobbering maw but cute adorable shiny eyes.

More goblin wreckage. Wargs too have not escaped the Bears fury and lie amongst the fallen. A few goblins still cling to life.

It was fun to sculpt great claw wounds in the orcs clothes and equipment. Everything has been torn and crushed to pieces.

Beorn's base with some Bodyguard of Bolg behind him. I'm not sure I'll have time to finish this big orcs before the weekend.

Bard of Lake town with his new fixed banner. This banner was a bit too tall for the storage box and the spearpoint snapped off, twice!. So using my flattened brush bristle technique, he's got a new much tougher one. The plastic used for brush bristles make them fantastic for super glue!

As Bard needs to be free to roam around, another replacement base was needed. Here is Bard with a fellow command stand. Bard is another Reaper Miniatures figure and is slightly bigger than most. This is fine as he is a hero and it suits his manly character.

More carnage, this poor Warg has been disemboweled. This is pretty grim but I did have fun sculpting it. Facing a giant werebear was never going to end well. Again, a coat of gloss helps bring it to life

Another shot of the basing production line.

Bard of Esgaroth.

The blue theme really helped to tie these militia type troops together. I tested the new banner tip and it comes below the storage box height, hopefully it won't get crushed again.

The Armies march to Partizan

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Fri, 11 Oct 2024 09:43:00 +0000

The last Dwarf base done just in time for the big weekend. It's the Other Partizan show this weekend and I'll be there with my armies. So if you fancy seeing a massive Hobbit battle...pop along.

The battle will be fought using the new Midguard rules by James Morris. It proves to be a great Sunday especially if you're a Tolkien fan.

Today I have collect everything together and pack it as best I can to stop any travel casualties. I have always painted my figures to play at home so have never magnetised them onto metal sheets.

I'm going to rely on nonslip matting and bubble wrap to get them there...I'm planned for a few accidents by hopefully, touch wood, all will be okay. It's been a lot of last minute painting but I'm looking forward to it.

Most of these Dwarves are old sculpts from Nick Lund.

That Reaper figure jumped the painting que and made the last company to leave the Iron Hills.

A couple of last minute Bolg bodyguard bases. I had planned to do more but time caught up with me. At least all the important stuff is done, like Beorn and the Eagles.

A coat of gloss on weapon edges and armour helps to catch the eye on the metal work. Dwarves are master smiths after all, their armour and weapons would be of high quality.

Come along on Sunday it would be nice to see you.

Finally the two meet, Bolg and bigger Beorn.

My old Beorn figure is dwarfed by the new addition. The new bear has a lot more presence to him and should look the part on Sunday.

The Battle of the Five Armies at Partizan.

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Sun, 13 Oct 2024 21:47:00 +0000

well...what a bloody marvellous couple of days I've just had. Taking all my figures to a show for the first time was a little nerve racking, but the effort really paid off. I had an excellent time and met some great new friends too in the process.

The board and mountain were excellent too, crafted by the talented James Morris. I had never deployed my whole army in one go before, so what better time to do it than on a set up like this. Everything seemed to come together perfectly.

I started my battle with the orcs at the bottom of the hill advancing across the mountain river. However, due to my terrible dice rolling and the luck of the Elves, I was cut and shot to pieces. It wasn't long before my tattered ranks were tumbling back through the freezing water. The Elves just had time to redress their lines before another dark wave of Goblin folk arrived.

I love the walled up gate that James made, the little gaps in the stonework were perfect. It really reminded me of one of Alan Lees illustrations. Also a very clever use of silver fabric for the river...very effective!

The Eagles arrived later in the game and swept the Goblins from the mountain sides. The game was masterfully run by David Hunter, who made sure the flo was just right.

My Eagles looked very realistic on the slopes of the mountain too, better than I had hoped for. The extra poses were well worth collecting over the last ten years. The flying ones on stands were a very recent purchase and they really stood out.

The game in full flo, it drew a big crowd and it was great to talk figures with people. A lot of people wanted to know where I got my Orcs from and of course the answer was...everywhere. Also the amount of plastic model kits used was very hard to calculate. Just about every Dark age and Fantasy box set all mashed up and mixed together.

I love my Wood elves after lovingly creating each one individually and got a huge buzz from seeing them in action. I didn't really care they were cutting my forces to ribbons, just seeing them used in anger was enough for me.

Hordes of Goblins still plagued the mountainside, their numbers were too much even for the Eagles.

Thorin was cut down by Bolg's bodyguard as he tried to cut through their great shields. Bard of Laketown too, fell to the hacking Goblin blades. Dain of the Iron hills was holding his own but was badly wounded. At last it seemed like the Free people's luck had run out.

Then with a roar like a thunderclap Beorn burst onto the scene. He tore through the Goblin ranks and made his way to Bolg. Approaching the rear of Bolg's bodyguard he shattered their formation.

It was at this point the Orc's morale was lost and the game was called. The rules were James' new Midguard ones and were perfect for this Dark age epic clash of men and monsters.

I had a great couple of days and it was a real treat to get out and do something exciting like this. To my amazement I didn't suffer any spear snaps of breakages and everything survived intacted. I was expecting a few casualties and had even taken a little repair kit but didn't need it.

Dain's Iron hills Dwarves push the Goblins from the ridge, supported by a group of Lake men.

Bonnie Blue Flag Rules

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Wed, 16 Oct 2024 21:08:00 +0000

I couldn't believe my luck at the Other Partizan show last Sunday, I actually got to meet Kevin Calder, the creator of the Bonnie Blue Flag rules.

I first saw the Iron Brigade banner and followed it down to reveal an actual BBF game being played. I recognised Kevin instantly and shook his hand. I gushed about his rules and told him how much I like them. I also explained about play testing it a month ago and he said he had seen the post, which was nice. It was only a quick hello as I had to race back to my own game.

I would have liked to have talked for longer and ask him lots of nerdy questions, like how to adapt them for AWI etc. still, I'm sure I'll bump into him again.

Ancient Erin

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Sat, 19 Oct 2024 22:06:00 +0000

I saw these new ancient Irish scenary pieces from Alternative Armies last week. I thought they looked good so bought a few. These will be added to with more skulls and blades once the glue is dry.

It'll be nice to cover these in grass to give them an ancient look and feel.

This one will look great with some extra swords laying across the new rocks. Fantasy stuff really gets the creativity flowing and is so rewarding.

This is a pebble I found and thought it had an interesting shape. Taken back through the mists of time, it is now a huge fertility alter. I can't tell you what happens here, you have to use your imagination.

The great fertility stone looks very different in the moonlight. Some have said to see it move...and take on the shape of a giant woman.

A Fomorian checks out the smell of new resin on the table.

Update: I've added some greenstuff furs on some of the alters.

A few extra swords from the bits box help to finish off this weapon shrine.

Update: The next step is to dry brush them with three tones of grey. The last one is almost a white, to really bring out the details.

After the greys are dry I started playing around with watered down Contrast paint from GW. I leave the Contrast paint darker around the base of the rocks, this helps to weather them.

This is the fun part where you can add loads of subtle colours to the stones.

For this sort of scenery work I find a small make up brush is perfect. Just make sure you put it back when you're finished.

Stones, Shrines and Alters of Erin

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Thu, 24 Oct 2024 15:11:00 +0000

Here are the finished standing stones from Alternative Armies amongst others.

I've added a few extra skulls to the base once flocked.

A bear hide has been left as an offering too.

Battle shine, again extra weapons have been added to the base. The rocks form a sacred circle in which to knee and offer your items.

Paper ferns were added to this base. I'm not sure how they will last as they are fragile. Being hard up against the stone will help them.

This place must be strong in fey magic because flowers have sprung up around the stones. Flowers are a nice way to show the affinity of a place. Flowers equal a nice holy area, where dead and dying grass says the opposite.

The great fertility rock with it's comfy furs to lie on. I wanted to give this the impression of a giant lady in a fur cloak. The cloak is made from moss and ivy.

Ancient pillar, I added some ivy to this to weather it in. Also putting flock to act as moss up one side helped to age it. Moss normally grows on the north side of trees, so I added this trick to a lot of the stones.

This is a miniature from Reaper Bones, I think it's called 'Evil tower'. I thought it would make a good Fomorian piece or maybe something older and darker. What ever it is, it has been thrust up from the ground and killed the surrounding grass. It must be cursed...

Ivy again helps weather these small stones. This isn't a bad place as flowers grow around the mound, new life from old.

I've rediscovered Celtos as a figure range that might be useful for this growing project.

It's time to dig out the old stones and compare them. A lot of these previous models had a greenstuff carving in them.

The two weapon shrines. One is a place of worship, the other, sacrifices.

The two stones of the dead. These could be used for any undead project.

Recently I thought about making more of an effort to photograph my miniatures. I have seen other people use backdrops and so thought I'd play around with the idea. By using a photo from a book as a background, the results can be quite different. Rather than a cluttered work table full of detail taking away from an image, the background actual enhances and compliments it. This simple book set up has really improved these stone pictures and it's something I'll do again for sure.

Dark age Irish

I have to say after the mad month of painting for the Partizan show, my painting mojo is well and truly fried. So I thought I would ease back into things with some gentle building and sculpting.

These figures are a One Hour Wargames Rules campaign set in the age of Arthur. I was picked for the Black shield Irish and so bought a couple of plastic boxes.

Skirmishers.

I thought a few Celtic blankets and cloaks wouldn't go a miss. The kits come with some cloaks, but I thought I'd have a go at making my own.

FIW using Bonnie Blue Flag Rules

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Wed, 30 Oct 2024 12:56:00 +0000

Here are the craziest scribblings of a madman. Having selected BBF for my black powder games, I'm now just trying to down scale it for a skirmish type game. Smaller units but still using multi bases for figures. Units of four seem to work as a base number.

Here are the unit sizes in Muskets and Tomahawks that are good to see as a guide. All just early days still just throwing ideas around to see if something sticks.

Drilled Vs irregular base.

Update: Right! I've bit the bullet and revised my Indians for the game.

I decided to go with 60x60mm bases to give a more spread out look. Also these Galloping Major figures are quite large for 28mm so it suits them better.

I imagine four bases of Indians to a unit with a base of skirmishers. I just want one rule set for my black powder games and I think BBF is the one, with a few tweaks of course.

My latest thinking is make Indians 'green', so they won't stick around long once the casualties start to mount up. A +10 melee modifier makes them dangerous close up so it's worth trying to get them into hand to hand. They are just too wise to stick around when things go bad. An experienced unit of warriors would be quite imposing with their combat bonus, something to be feared.

I had thought of giving Rangers the same combat bonus but as they will be veterans, a plus 10 would be too much. I think let's class them as Elites with a +5.

Fomorian Shields from Hobbycraft

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Thu, 31 Oct 2024 16:32:00 +0000

yesterday I popped to Hobbycraft to see if they had any pieces I could use for the new Midgard rules. I couldn't find any goblets but I did track down the beads needed for heroic deeds.

While I was travelling through the bead tray, I saw one that I thought would make a great Celtic shield.

It has a nice wrap around curve to it but more importantly, sports a nice Celtic swirly pattern.

Ancient Irish warriors fight with the sea devils.

It has a good level of detail to make it look well crafted and ornate. Once I sculpt a boss for the centre I think it will look just the ticket. Nice deep grooves that will catch ink and weathering very well. The swirl too is a very Celtic looking design.

This tub was £4 which is unbelievable for an armies worth of shields. I might end up using these beads as heroic deeds markers too as they won't roll unlike the rounder ones.

You can get a next size up in container to fill with your beads for £8, again for hundreds of shields this isn't bad. The small tub should be enough though.

Fomorian Coastal Scenery

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Sat, 02 Nov 2024 00:16:00 +0000

Here are some rock pools to add to a coastal game mat. I've added some kelp seaweed to make them a bit more North sea.

There are also a couple of other prints that I plan to use as Fomorian shrines. Places where they honour their dead and stack weapons and armour in tribute.

To save on the greenstuff, I switched to Milliput as it's cheaper for bigger pieces.

I'll add some more skulls and weapons etc to these bases.

Update: So the Fomorians crawled out of the icy North sea in the night and adorned the pools with their burial goods.

Fomorian skulls and weapons now litter the swallow pools, soon to be covered by the rising tide.

Barnacles were just grit stuck with PVA glue. After the glue was dry I gave the grit another wash of the glue. This should make it stand up to a good dry brushing.

One of the new swirly shields gets placed in the pool. I gave the water a coat of PVA glue just to get rid of the 3D printing texture.

I will add a little more seaweed now the skulls are in.

Update: These models were sprayed black then dry brushed with grey and white. Contrast colours were then painted over the highlighted pools.

To make them look a bit more aquatic and fantasy, I included colours like blue and purple into the palette.

Here we can see a highlighted model before the Contrast paint washes.

Update: started to pick out the barnacles and shields etc.

Dark Age Irish

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Sun, 03 Nov 2024 17:09:00 +0000

Here is a small warband of Dark age Irishmen. They are meant to be the Black shield Irish from the Winter King books. I struggled with just painting black shields as I wanted to paint some designs. I got around this by painting some fancy shields, then painting them black then rubbing off the paint.

This represents the warband painting over their war shields with black. After some heavy campaigning and harsh weather, not to mention dips in the sea, some of the black paint has started to wear off.

There's enough Celtic design underneath to show through.

Not many more to do now, just the druid and four skirmishers.

These are a mix of Crusader, Gripping beast plastic and Wargames Atlantic plastics. They have been very enjoyable to paint too.

The new rock pools are a perfect setting for Raiding Black shields.

Halfords Mat Lacquer

I thought I'd give this a go as I had heard good things about it. I thought the scenic rock pools would be the perfect test subject, as if they dried glossy it wouldn't matter.

The results were good. I sprayed the models after I had added some flock, I thought the lacquer would help seal it.

After the scenic pieces I thought I'd try it on the new Irish figures. I consider this a tough, hard coat. Another layer of super mat varnish will be added with a brush when this first coat is dry.

The rock pools got a layer of flock really nail the realistic look.

The flock and paint work is all sprayed with the new lacquer, seems to be a winner.

The last stage was to gloss varnish the water in the pools. This really brought them to life and gave them a sparkle.

The kelp and some of the green rocks were also given a lick with the gloss brush too. Not too much, just enough to give them a damp look.

The bottom of the pools were painted with loads of people's of different colours. This was then given a green wash, then a brown one to add depth to the pool.

Canadian Basing

Here are my test bases for the French and Indian wars, using the Bonnie Blue Flag rules.

I quite like these bases, they have more character than the single ones for me. Hopefully, these few test bases will inspire me to do a few more and finish the unit.

Galloping Major figures are so nice that you want to do them justice.

These have just been flocked and need a bit of a dusting off.

Mixed herbs make great leaf litter that is a classic look for the ancient Canadian forests.

When painting these figures I used a few coloured fine tip pens to detail the belts and pouches. I also gave them a coat of Dark tone dip from the tin. I was trying to think of a way of speeding up the painting process.

I love the long muskets and rifles.

War of the Roses Basing

By iron-mitten.blogspot.com
Published On :: Mon, 11 Nov 2024 21:44:00 +0000

The men of Lord Hastings' Retinue struggle through the mud of Tewkesbury.

Vallejo thick mud was the perfect solution for the grim battle conditions of the war. Adding snow to this layer would look fantastic but would rather limit the battles. I think a generic muddy field is a good all rounder for this brutal conflict.

I broke my usual 69x60mm basing after seeing a friend's and decided to copy it. Partly because the cheapness of plastics allows for bigger units. I also have quite a few old Perry miniatures from the old days of Foundry. These old lead figures are great for sprinkling amongst the ranks to add character. The above photo shows the effect of these old sculpts. They have to be mounted on plastic bases etc to bring them up to the height of the newer plastics. The mud is great for covering these and making everyone level.

As the Vallejo mud was drying, I cut up some thin brush bristles and pushed them into the mixture. These make for great arrows and really helps to give the bases a War of the Roses look and feel.

The mud is also great for splashing up the legs and clothes of the soldiers. It's quite subtle but helps to set them in the scene.

The mud isn't quite dry yet and there are a couple more things to do before they are finished. Layers of 'Rutted field' from Luke's APS should look good over the mud, as well as patches of static grass. Also the arrows will need some white goose fletching on them.

These new bases are 80x60mm and give a more realistic look to a unit. I got a bit carried away with these bases and they grew to 10 men per base.

The figures In these units are a mix of old Foundry, Perry's plastics and Forlorn Hope metal figures. They all mix together well and make for characterful formations.
