Painting - Le Meut and Frostgrave

So this week I got a decent bit of painting done. My stuff from the Frostgrave Nickstarter came in so I was excited to get going on that, and also eager to get Le Meut painted up.

Armand Le Meut:
Infinity

So first up I have the much sought after Le Meut painted up, available in the tournament winner pack. He is an alien mercenary that is willing to work for anyone. Pretty cool model with allot of details, I like the skull and Rest in Oblivion that is written on the back of his jacket. Pretty happy with how it turned out.




Paints Used:

GW: Black Spray, Dawnstone, Leadbelcher, Mordian Blue, Iron Breaker, Chaos Black, Baneblade Brown, Palid Witch Flesh

Vallejo: Black, Flat Red, Natural Grey, Dark Grey, Ivory, Flat Earth, Dark Sand, Brown Violet, White, Deck Tan

Warpaints: Soft Tone, electric blue


 Chronomancer & Apprentice:
Frostgrave

 I also got some guys done for Frostgrave, the set came with a set of wizards, 20 plastic guys, and a few metal guys and odds and ends. So I started off with the wizards. This picture didn't come out great for some reason but oh well. I like the apprentice on the left the most of the pair. They are not based yet as I have decided to order some fancy resin bases, so not quite done, but I thought worth having a look. The face on the lady in particular is not great.

Paints Used:

GW: Black Spray, Dawnstone, Leadbelcher, Mordian Blue, Iron Breaker, Chaos Black, Baneblade Brown, Gold

Vallejo: Black, Natural Grey, Dark Grey, Ivory, Flat Earth, Dark Sand, Brown Violet, White, Deck Tan, Wood Grean, Orange Brown, Gold, Japenese Uniform, Chocolate Brown

Warpaints: Soft Tone, electric blue

Foundry: Flesh Triad

 Crusader:
Frostgrave

 I also got my first of the 8 soldiers to support the wizards finish the Crusader, just a Knight with a big sword really. I decided to copy of Stan's scheme for his Knights since it seemed easy and looks good. The plastic set comes with lots of extra parts bags and all kinds of stuff so I glued a pouch from that on the front of his leg there so he can stash some treasure.

Paints Used:

GW: Black Spray, Leadbelcher,Iron Breaker, Chaos Black, Dark Red, Wazdaza Red

Vallejo: Flat Earth, Dark Sand, White, Wood Grain, Orange Brown, Gold, Japenese Uniform, Choclate Brown

Foundry: Flesh Triad

 So these are the guys I got painted this week let me know what you thing. I should be able to get another bunch of Frostgrave and another Infinity guy done for next week.

    Have you read the Frostgrave rules yet?

    Ya they seems pretty good if maybe a bit simple. But it is all the spells that give it the fun I guess. Basically you roll a d20 and add a modifier or 2, and they have a bit of a mordheim like system where you can level up the wizards and collect treasure ect.. Seems fun to me.

    I think I will download the rules for my iPad. I probably have some D&D wizards that are appropriate somewhere (or even some of the wizards from Descent)

    Yes all those options would work great I think, there is also the Necromancer type guy from that Saga revenanats box.

    We should give the game a try then! I am taking a couple days off this weekend to ahve a bit of a vacation so hoping to get the painting I want done then.

    Thanks;
