Sewing Circle - Widow Weaver and Bandersnatch

The Widow Weaver's one of my favorite Malifaux models, and I was glad that the plastic version was 90%+ just a materials update.

Wings of Shadow(?) - Nekima

The old metal Nekima is still a very impressive mini. She appropriately looks massive on the table with her huge wings and serious height, and I think just about every part of the old model fits a classic demon (or at least fantasy setting demon) look. She could have been a little beefier in demonstrating her complete lack of sublety, but Wyrd did give her some serious height and a fairly athletic build, so I can't complain much. (The horns are converted, but only because the kit was used and missing them, not because I felt they didn't fit.)

I went with a more natural/fleshy take on the equally-classic red & black demon color scheme, on some shiny black volcanic rock. As is often the case, my favorite bit of the model was getting to play around with the large surfaces of her wings, since it allowed me to get a bit more texture and personality into the model.

Posthumanism in the Bayou - Neverborn Swamp Elementals

The Mysterious Emissary is pretty darn cool- I wasn't really a fan initially, but having assembled and painted one, I'm quite happy with how it turned out (I just wish its changelings and the ones it created were consistent designs... preferring these ones hugely over the prep school kids).

Pulling Strings- Zoraida and Her Puppets

This is the second Zoraida crew I've gotten to paint, and I still think Wyrd hit the proverbial nail on the head with this iteration.

Lock, Stock, Barrel - Malifaux Ortega siblings

Been a while since I've posted anything for Malifaux, I burnt out a bit, I'm getting rolling again...

No. 26... No. 26... - Malifaux Dreamer model

So, I'd actually been thinking about this guy for more than a year now, when it came time to execute.

Sympathy for the Devil - Malifaux Lucius & co. update

So, it felt about time for Lucius to get a face (mask?)-lift.

Stop Copying Me! - Neverborn Mimics

So, I wasn't very satisfied with these ladies' first paint job after a while, so, as I am wont to do, I repainted them.

I Go Walking After Midnight - Malifaux Swamp crew

I think this has been some of my most ambitious work in some time.

Odd Couple - Mr. Tannen & Mr. Graves

So, a little bit of a delayed post, but finally posting Mr. Graves from Wyrd Miniatures's Frozen Moments competition.

Woe is Me - Neverborn Clear Sorrows, plus mini-tutorial on clear plastics

The limited edition clear plastic crews Wyrd released really gave me a reason to get Pandora, who I'd largely ignored in the past, since I didn't like her metal crew's aesthetic.

...And This is Your Drug on Brains - Malifaux Lynch crew

So, with my first and second set of these guys, I did something more traditional, but with this, I feel like I've had enough practice with the minis that I could do something more out there.

Bunmei Kaika - Asian-focused Lynch Crew

I think this is my favorite Lynch crew, having worked on three now.

Dance, puppet! - Collodi crew, continued

Starting with some of my favorites, the Effigies are some of Wyrd's coolest sculpts, and I always enjoy trying to link disparate elements through a continuing color scheme.

It's the Greatest Showtime! - Collodi crew

So, I wasn't really expecting it when I started, because Burlamacco was more silly than creepy, and Collodi was never my favorite Wyrd sculpt, but I think he's turned out to be one of the most sinister minis I've painted.

Tag Team - Mature Nephilim duo

The final evolution of these beasties were fun as something a bit different.

Red-handed - Neverborn Nephilim

It took a lot of trial & error, but now they're painted up.

Mother & Child - Malifaux Nephilim

An expansion of some earlier Neverborn.

Posers! Nephilim re-poses

So, for an upcoming painting commission, I ended up doubling up on poses and my client wanted to avoid duplicates.

The Shadow on the Moon at Night - Malifaux Nightmares

Somehow I forgot to post Coppellius after the Rotten Harvest.
