Hamsters Cabinet of Horrors

So, got some new models and I thought I'd post pics of them here. Starting with my Merchant Caravan for Bordertown Burning:

My Merchant:


My Apprentice:


My Wizard:


My Knights Vanguard:


My Marksmen:


My Blackguards:


My Coach:



It strikes me how alike the coach and the horses are in collor. I might have to do something about that eventually.

Also, I've begun on some orcs:

Orc Chief:



Orc Shaman:

That's a merry looking Bad of Rogues. You've captured each mini's unique personality WONDERFULLY. VERY WELL DONE!

Well done, and i love the little bitey mushroom on the shamans base, thanks for sharing!

Those blackguard are awesome! I like the use of the Pit Fighter body and the others are just marauder and militia box set kitbashes? I have a few spare of each and that is rather inspiring! Maybe I'll go back some Hired Swords. What Barrel is that? Also what crossbows did you use? They seem a big heavier and bulkier than the ones from the Militia Box.

Hadn't seen the orcs yet, i see you reused your successful beard trick!

Cheers!

The other two blackguards are militia and catachan bashes (with greenstuff). The barrel is from the oger leadbelcher set (cut in half on the slant to make it half burried). The crossbows are from the empire handgunner box.

At last! Pics of the Greedy Bunch! Have you figured out a name for them yet? Everybody knows that it's easier to defend chaos artefacts if you have named the defenders... My favourite in the gang is the red haired blackguard, and of course the stubby merchant. BTW, whatever happened to the one-armed knight vanguard?

that wizard mini is awesome

The Blackguard with his foot on the barrel is my favorite. The pose and the sword make the familiar bitz unique. Nice looking warband overall.

Nice Warband, I like the Blackguard but the Apprentice is my favourite. What mini is it? And did you paint the eye or did you use Windows Paint or something on the pic? Not that it would downgrade the characterfulness of the bunch, just asking out of curiosity.

The one armed vanguard is not ready yet, I'm working on it =)

The apprentice mini is the mordheim vampire body with his head filled off and replaced with one from the state trooper box. The hand with the bottle comes from the empire wizard sprue with the smoke cut off.

I've painted all the eyes except for the bald blackguard, and that's just because I forgott. Also I need to buy a new pen (yes, I use a pen instead of a brush).

And ofcourse I've named them. They're called "which way to cathay".

AH, the pen explains how the pupils can be so round. I use this method too whenever possible. The Vampire-conversion is great, I knew I saw the torso before. Nice job over all!

Very nice models. It makes a great warband. Will you be adding baggage to your coach?

Thanks! I plan to if I ever manage to focus long enough to actually do something =) I got so many ideas that I want to put into action I lock up =)
