finished a friend's dungeon spiders.
quick and easy.
after painting these i kinda wish i had collected a goblin army filled,
another crazy night with the lady and her boys. after having a successful game of Fistful of Lead figured this time Galactic Heroes with a touch of Heroquest using my Wizard of the Coast Star Wars figures. great game with all the usual element of a Star Wars story. heroism, adventure and betrayal. i always love Heroquest and since i don't play with my Space Hulk game as much as I like to, i do put the tiles in good use. recently i have been using them for floor plans of an underground bunker or facility with my Star Wars figures. which in my opinion are the perfect size and such. i don't count the squares or use a measuring tool for movement. and for weapon ranges pretty much is in range because we are in compact spaces, the most a weapon's range would be depending how long and straight a corridor would be...anywhere from few inches to maybe 12inches. the band of Republic agents has come across a fallen Jedi and some hired guns.. up to this point, ...
few weeks ago i saw on Miniature Market.com they had HATE on sale and this was a board game i was so interested in since its debut on Kickstarter. so i jumped at the chance and get the core box set and the three expansion tribes before they are gone. and when i got my package i was so eager to open it. i waited for my girlfriend to come over after work to check it out also. and the quality of the product is a 9.5/10. no lie. so after a weeks or so getting the basic game play rules down, i asked my girl, Rita if she wanted to try it. in all honesty i was afraid she wouldn't like it. so i set up a layout of plateau tokens, instead of using the tribe miniatures from the two huge boxes of figures you get..(107 in total), i used the two expansion tribes instead. the Um'Tull and the Sarrassa.

so eager to start playing Frostgrave, i took the spare Ghost Archipelago Snake Men plastics and put them together and painted them to they are kinda frost and icy. i guess a little more cold blooded than normal. my wizard wielding a spear with the spear head clipped off and glued on the top little aquarium pebbles to give it a more primitive feel. repeated the same process with my apprentice as i did with my wizard. with the staff and the glued pebbles. an angry snakemen thug waiting for his payment.. went with a light blue base color and then water downed darker blue wash. then used different shades of brown for leather armor and such. still have several more to complete this warband. will post pics once they are finished, then it will be off to the last of the Snake Men plastics and i created a generic group of snake men but haven't decided on a color scheme. more to come with that small project.
Man, I like those Ice Spiders, good job!
