15mm Fantasy (XII) - More Bad Guys

Some old and new stuff today, firstly the new which is a unit of Beastmen for my evil Dragon Rampant armies and as generic mooks in Frostgrave (minis from RPE):






and secondly some Magister Militum minis I picked up a couple of years back at Vapnartak in York which I have finally gotten round to painting:






Both units were lazily painted via a base coat, some dry brushing, and then picking out the details and weapons, followed by a wash and a quick highlight mainly on the metal work, still its effective and more importantly quick.


Blood Bowl, more 15mm Fantasy or my Bad Moons next!

Odds & Ends (19) - Keeping it in the Family


My son has been painting on and off since he was about 8(he's now 10) he started with a few Reaper Bones dragons and other beasties but as he has gotten older he is now interested in Fallout and Blood Bowl(amongst many other things!).

With his pocket money and birthday/Xmas he has acquired quite a few of Modiphius' Fallout range, so I thought I'd show of his painting, first up his Fallout collection:






As he was showing considerable interest in Blood Bowl and being very keen for him to get into it myself I gave him my spare Lizardman team which was well down my queue for painting and over the course of a couple of weeks he has painted and based his first team:









As for actual gaming, he has played a few half's of table top Bloodbowl and plenty on the Xbox,  I have also had him playing Dragon Rampant and Bolt Action both of which he picked up quickly and enjoyed and he has now picked up a 2nd hand Age of Sigmar Lizardman force and has been browsing 3rd party Kroxigors for his Bloodbowl team to replace the current one he's not keen on!

The start of his AoS army:


Hopefully it's not just a fad but so be it if it is!(though it would be awesome if he caught the Bloodbowl bug at least!)
