Island of Blood Skaven Warlock Engineer

Here are some pics of the Skaven Warlock Engineer from Island of Blood, not much to him just a few colors for the base coat and some washes, not too much highlighting, I am fairly pleased with how they turned out and all the little extra details,

This is it about half way done. 

The final product!!

Island of Blood Skaven Weapon Teams

Finally I have Finally painted some miniatures from Island of Blood. The skaven weapon teams were the first ones I chose to paint and I am pretty well pleased especially because it is my first painted miniature!!  (well not exactly, I have painted a small group of Night Goblins). They were fairly quick to paint up and mostly just a basecoat and some washes, with a tiny bit of highlighting on the skirt things.

The Perils of Paint

Paints are wonderful, even more so when you have enough of them. Over the last few weeks/days I have been building up my paint collection. I took a trip to A-1 Comics (the closest place that sells Games Workshop supplies) and got myself a fairly good group of paints, I was walking to the parking lot when I realized "I have no white!" After rushing back to the store to grab a pot of Skull White and thanking whatever made me remember such a crucial item I was ready to go, well not quite, Upon returning home I realized that I had no grays or yellows. In frustration I placed an order in with Games Workshop for the needed paints dashing all hopes of finally having all the things I need to get started. Ahh well, I suppose thats the life of a wargamer.

P.S. this is why it is taking me so long on the Island of Blood =) 

WARPSTONES!!

Here are some pics of some Warpstones I made, theirs not much to them, I just grabbed some rocks and glued them to a foam board base, I then dipped toilet paper in watered down white glue to build up the earth around the rocks, the paint job is simple just a black undercoat and several layers of browns and grays for the earth, the warpstones where just a light green similar to GW scorpion green( I use normal acrylics for my terrain) I then drybrushed them a very pale green, some flock finished up the job,
Enjoy!
