Bad's Undead

Hello everyone after some time away I've been working on my undead warband. Im trying out some nmm so its a bit pink but i've finished my vampire just need to paint his armour heres a few shots of him before i started painting.

And this little guy is his lucky charm and also holds his helmet.

and i've made "The Abominable" Duerr Schiffer Mark II. I made him quite a bit shorter i think its much better proportioned now and a new paint job and a book and a couple of skulls here he is.




Heres  a side by side.

And a little preview of my vampire lord

Let me know what you guys think.

SPLENDID in their own way! Both the shorter Schiffer & his Vampire Master look WONDERFULLY evil. ..TERRIFIC conversion & brushwork. GREAT WORK!  

great work on the conversion! inspiring me to get off my butt and start my own Undead warband.

awesome stuff

Thanks guys still haven't finished my vampire yet but i did finish my first dreg.
Let me introduce Eseld Strauss (beautiful bouquet) known throughout the empire as the most beautiful woman in Mordheim. She fell in love with vampy as a girl and has been following him around in a wedding dress ever since.




I painted her with a banner as a cloak thinking it would look awesome but I'm not happy with it thinking bout just painting her all white what do you guys think?

She is a BEAUTY alright...WONDERFUL brushwork & an interesting & equally wonderful choice of colors. VERY WELL DONE!    
If you are unhappy with the colors, then you should change them. You are the one who will be seeing the Girl every day.  

I dont think that painting all of the girl's robes in white would be a problem if you make sure that the model doesn't looks plain. I would make the white dress as it had been submerged in blood (so there's little white left on it from the splashes of blood coming from her master's slaugther).

Thanks guys ill change her into white i think ill go back to her soon anyway built this guy today time for greenstuffing

The new Guy(s) are COOL & IMAGINATIVE. He/they brought to mind Hellboy with his Undead Graveyard Guide from the first movie. Have FUN with the painting!  

Hey guys i finished my vampire!
May i present Erik Von Fleischer (All powerful butcher)




I painted his shoulder with a crackle effect trying to make it look like some ancient enamel look i don't know how well you can make it out with the quality of my pics. I'm not happy with my nmm i shoulda got better at it before painting these guys but i thought up a technique last night that'll be much better for me i thinks gonna test it soon and then probably go back and redo all my metals.
And heres a quick pic of my finished war band so far.

Lady dregs nearly done hopefully ill finish her today and Humberts nearly done too. I should start thinking bout what I'm going to do for bases but got the painting bug so ill keep painting for now as i seldom do (Old Humbert was made around 3 years ago and still not painted ><)

They are a NASTY LOOKING trio...BEAUTIFULLY painted however. GREAT WORK!  

Really like your models, all of them, the vampire looks very scary and weird, super original conversion!
The drunk's guy with skeleton also is fantastic as the lady dregs, couldn't never image an use like it for that bits from the corpse cart kit!

Thumbs up, great warband, hope to see new entry soon!!

Thanks guys i been busy, i repainted Eseld white, I finally finished humbert and i made my first zombie.
This is Humbert "The Magnificent" baer stunningly handsome and o so strong




I think i need to fade the ink some more.
I need to get some blood effect for wounds and such but here he is my first zombie

And now "The Abominable" Duerr Schiffer can take over the city of Mordheim with his unstoppable horde of zombie!!

Let me know what you guys think while i go finish my ghoul tester.

DEAD COOL STUFF! I like the variation in skin tons & Humbert's tattoo is TERRIFIC....GREAT WORK!  

Hey thanks guys I've done several more coats on my ghoul still not done though cause i been busy building and painting my dark soul zombie still need blood effect but here he is

I finally got around to making a base quick and easy which I'm quite happy with need to go back and do everyone else now. I need to make a drive to a GW store for some effects and washes a couple of models i wanna convert too but its a 6 hour round trip ><

The Deadite looks WONDERFUL...GREAT WORK!  
I've managed to be in the craft for more than half a century & never set foot in a G.W. store...aren't there any hobby or craft stores closer than the G.W. one? Vallejo makes a very nice blood effect.

Hey thanks Deaf unfortunately there only 1 and its more artsy the only thing I've gotten from there is a crackle effect. I'll make a shopping trip soon get everything i need probably sooner than later i wanna get these guys finished.

I don't suppose it will help, but I came to miniature painting from an art background. I have never understood the 'must use GW or whatever miniature company approved' paints thing. That art store is full of materials that will work as well or better than the crap game companies sell. These days I use craft paint from a Micheal's store. Its cheap, lasts forever and covers great.

Anyway, I would recommend going to the artsy store and REALLY looking around. Everything you want for this hobby is there somewhere and it will save you a trip.

Hey guys I just finished my first dire wolf




He stands up ok but a soft berth knocks him over does anybody have a good way of weighting bases?
Anyway let me know what you guys think.

I'd rather not think of what that bell between his rear legs is attached to. Other than that a GREAT conversion...the rider is a COOL little piece all by him self.  

Great wolf! I'll usually weigh down models with a coin glued to the underside of the base. Seems to work well with plastic miniatures!

I use lead. It works well with anything. You could just enlarge the base...GW Dire wolves came on a cavalry base...

As usual the wolf looks amazing (as long as you don't think about the bell).

Top notch mister, i LOVE the rider, best idea i have seen for months here, thumbs up!

That direwolf is excellent - it has so much dynamism. For weights, I'd what Chief Tugboat said about coins (in fact, I often base figures directly on coins).
