Share your work in progress!

Here is what I'm working on right now (and some I've been working on for months and years because I never seem to be able to finish a miniature ). Please share all the stuff you're working on in one single photo

You've got quite a variety of cool pieces underway; they all share the common denominator of being or about to become VERY WELL DONE.

My latest piece is this Scarecrow Guy for my Spooky Woods Project:



There are a few more photos here:

Nice spooky forest you got going there DeafNala

I've got to ask - Where did the minotaur in your first pic come from??

And currently in progress we have :

Nice thread idea

COOL STUFF, ghostbear & qboid; & thanks, Jorisch!

fun idea for a thread I'm currently working on some savage orcs for the southlands and basing my necrarch warband

Hey, great idea for a thread! And great works I can see already being developed!

I'm not putting one photo, but three, as I'm currently working on 3 different factions for Vampire Hunters (a mix of West Wind Productions and GW models). Actually, this is only one small part of my current project. I'm working on a few hundreds of miniatures at the same time, which means I won't have all of this done in the next few years - that's the price I have to pay for being such a scattered brain!







The idea here is to apply a basecoat and then wash everything with devlan mud (an extremely stinky paint, as my girlfriend has been complaining) and then highlight the whole thing. This way, all the minis look gritty and dirty for more realism.

cool looking gang! I like the monks, are they slightly smaller than the GW models?

Hey, here's a comparative photo with some GW minis next to the monks - the monks are from WWP (West Wind Productions) and they come attached to small bases which I've kept. This gives them a slight extra height comparing to the other minis, but not a big deal really:

@ JoaoS: thanks for pointing me to those witch-hunters from WWP. I could finally identify some odd minis I stumbled upon.

@ Jorisch: the dog in the very first pic. Where is he from?

It's from Scibor Miniatures. Fantastic Model and they have a couple of different ones.

And thanks everyone for sharing!

Did I really write minotaur? I ment dog. The dog on the very right... where was my head?

The dog is from Warlord Games:

SO...rather than letting you think Pumpkin Head Jones (West Wind's name for the first photo I posted here) was traveling solo, here's the rest of his W.I.P. Gang thus far:







These are from West Wind's Gothic Horror range.

Excellent DeafNala! This thread seems to be quite populated with Gothic Horror stuff! I painted those scarecrows but was very disappointed with my work, so I might repaint them at some point.

Have you seen the Foundry scarecrows, though? They might interest you - although they're slightly smaller than the West Wind ones.

Joao

Thanks JoaoS; it's a bit too soon to say how well they'll turn out...just hope for the best. We work with a pretty forgiving medium; if it doesn't turn out as well as it should, just soak the sucker & try again....& again, etc.

I'm not sure if I've seen the Foundry ones; I'll check the War Store for them. This Reaper is one I definitely want:

Me too!!

As you can see The Ferret has been busy - the building and moveable terrain are coming along nicely as are the mercenaries.

OOH, MORE COOLNESS! GREAT looking stuff, Ferret, & some FINE painting ideas to shamelessly style with your West Wind stuff, JoaoS.
The popularity of the thread is a very pleasant surprise for moi. It's rather like hanging out for a painting session with some friends...minus the chips & dips.

Yes ... many thanks to Jorisch for starting this thread! Nala - do you have warband stats for the pumpkins?

Nothing definite...I had been using the War Bands Rules from the '04 W.D. with modifications for solo play. Now I'm thinking of switching to Chaos in Carpathia.

Great Idea for a thread. I took this with my phone so the quality is not great.

Hey Sarge! You've got some cool pieces in the works there...the Pistol Packing Dude is one of G.W.'s nicer new pieces. Have FUN with them all.

A couple updates
