I painted up  few more minis for my Etsy store. An old vampire model pulled from my pile of shame. I have no idea how long this has lingered in my collection but it had the old style green card from Reaper so my guess is mid 90's. The other is a dwarf engineer that was 3D printed by Apache Studio. If you're interested check out my Etsy page.

A year or so ago I joined the Trench Crusade Kickstarter and am now just getting started on my own Trench Pilgrim force. I'm trying some new to me techniques with using oil paints as washes. It takes some restraint for me to do. Normally I paint the different parts of the model all the way then switch a different part. With the oils its best to block in all the main colors then add the wash and finish up the highlights afterwards. It feels wrong at first but trusting the process works out. I still have a good bit of learning to do but here is what I've done so far.

So 26 years ago I got a box of Chronopia Blackblood Orc Swordsmen from a hobby shop in New Jersey. It's taken me that long to break open that box and paint them! I don't really have an excuse other than I had other things to paint. They are some of my favorite orc sculpts and some of the best (in my opinion) of a rather lackluster range of the Chronopia game. If you would like to add these to your collection I have added them to my Etsy shop.
