On the table now

Finished a couple of comission works and have some in the queue, but I took a brief interval to paint up some stuff for me. No more text, all pics from here down:

BEF Tanks - Comission was the markings - white/red/white and freehand yellow markings

Me262 Sturmvogel, still lacking varnish (waiting for a sunny day)

Flammhetzer (some detailing left to do)

Hs129B3 WIP

Humber Scout cars (Comission work)

I also finished some Khurasan Tibetans but have no photos of that. Will wait for the customer to take some proper photos so I can have a memento :)

Upcoming post will mainly focus on 15mm Panzergrenadiers (Lehr) done for me and 20mm SCW/10mm ACW/15mm Romans on comission.

Cheers,

Pedro

A quick review of the last month

Mainly focused on commission work for the last month and here is a quick review.

Numidian 15mm Elephants

Iberian 15mm command

Gaul 15mm command

Gaul 15mm Cavalry base

Gaul 15mm Cavalry base

15mm legion

WIP 15mm Tibetan Cataphracts

And that about sums it up. Next month will still feature commission work heavily, mainly the finished 15mm Tibetans from Khurasan and a new project - 20mm SCW :)

Cheers,

Current status of Late Republican Roman 15mm

Three additional elements finished and delivered on this comission.

One unit of Legionnaires (only two to go)

The Light Horse element of the army - Numidians

And a Gaul command (either auxiliary or to be used in different armies)

Not much left to go on this job. Everything should be done in 2 to 3 weeks.

Cheers,
Pedro

Viriathus & Stalins

Been busy on the workbench lately. Last work finished couldn´t be further apart in chronologically:

15mm IS2 tanks (Battlefront) done on comission:

Command IS2, with some stolen oil painting of a Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies splayed on the turret

One of the other tanks - the IS2 is a beast!

This one shows off nicely the pigment work I tried. Worked nicely, will use again

All 5 of the IS2 bumper to bumper

And a Lusitanian command stand with Crusader Miniatures:

Commander is Viriathus - his shield design is supposed to be Endovelicus, an Iron Age pre-Roman Lusitanian God

Next few days I´ll be finishing some Numidian Light Horse and a  Late Republican Roman Legion, both part of a FoG army comission.

Oh - I also managed to find time and dab some additional paint on my Seljuk Emir (right down the middle of the timeline between the previous 2 figures). Still some way to go, but he currently looks like this:

The Seljuk Emir, now with 100% more carpet

On the workbench - commission work

A pause from Seljuks and Crusades to do some Commission Work. I just started doing this type of work, having never previously sold a single painted miniature, and it´s going rather well. In fact - I have a massive pipeline of work already on order, so over the next month or so the comission work I´m doing will feature heavily here.

Last night I finished (all except basing) 6x Numidian Archers in 15mm (Corvus Belli is the manufacturer) for an ongoing Late Republican Roman FoG commission.

Numidian Archers 

Excellent miniatures and a pretty straight forward colour scheme, as the Numidians used plain unadorned and un-dyed  tunics.  Bases will now get a dark brown wash and then a khaki drybrush to make the miniatures "pop" and I´ll add some tufts to give it some contrast.

All my projected commission work are in this 15mm ancients area. Next up will be a unit which will be much (MUCH) more colourfull - Gaul Cavalry (as Cavalry auxiliaries for the same Late Republican Roman army).

Already done are a couple of units of legionnaires, Cretan archer support, a command base with a mounted praetor and a Fortified camp - all of which went without any photos, unfortunately.

Currently the commission queue is filled for 2012 :)
