Cold snap!

And now I have completed the Malifaux crew for my friend Thomas. I don't pretend to understand the game, but he told me the other night that all the models I had painted for him were those with the Cold Heart ability/special rule/connection, sounds suitably chilly for this cold snap we're having.

When we talked through the scheme at the start of the project we agreed on a palette composed primarily of pale blue, purple, and bone. It was a lot of fun to try and restrict everything to these colors, as well as taking cues where possible from the original "studio paintjobs". As a refresher, here are the first batch of beasties.

This Ice Golem (on the left) was interesting to paint, and by interesting I mean it took me four times as long to finish as I thought it would. lots of layers over the entire model, and even the there could have been more.

Here's the whole crew assembled. I hope you like them : )

The cool bases are from Dragon Forge Design. The clumps of snow on the bases are from Secret Weapon Miniatures crushed glass kit.

The list of paints I used for the project are as follows (in manufacturer groupings):

GW Seraphim Sepia

GW Thunderhawk Blue

GW Averland Sun

GW Boltgun Metal

GW Mithril Silver

GW Rhinox Hide

GW Nuln Oil

P3 Morrow White

SWM Amethyst

VGC Hammered Copper

VGC Glorious Gold

VGC Hexed Lichen

VGC Turquoise

VGC Tan 

VGC Dwarf Skin

VMC Pale Sand

Perhaps you'll seethem on the Malifaux tables at Adepticon : )

Cheers
