My Circle Painting

My sculpting has been a bit distracted recently as I have been having fun painting my slowly expanding Circle of Orboros army for the Privateer Press game, Hordes (http://privateerpress.com/). It's been slow progress but I've got a few units that I am finally happy with.

Tharn Bloodtrackers:
These lovely models really inspired me to try and improve on my painting, and now tend to be included in most armies I field...



Tharn Ravagers:
Having painted the Bloodtrackers, I felt compulsed to revamp my rather poorly painted Ravagers. I've painted a full unit of six, but for some reason only included three in this photo...


Druids:
These are my most recent unit, and it was quite a challenge to offset the darkness of all those black robes.


Warlocks: Morvhanna and Kaya:
I do of course need a couple of Warlocks to lead my troops. I'm still working on Kromac, but these two girls are almost there. Morvhanna does admittedly need a bit more work to finally finish her.

Drakhun:

This is admittedly nothing to do with Circle, but I painted this guy a few months ago, and have finally got around to taking a photo...

Breaking the silence

As expected, I haven't been terribly regular with my blog posting... but I thought I would share some of the stuff I've been working on over the last four or five months.

The Travelling Court of the Brownie King:
On the sculpting front I put a lot of work into my entry for the Frothers 2007 sculpting competition. My entry got an honourable mention, which I'm proud of, especially given the general quality of the other entries. I'm currently hopeful that he'll be getting produced some time in the not-too-distant future.


Twilight: Fubarnii Derakeer
As for Twilight, progress has been sporadic. I've done a bit of work on the priest and a spearman, but did start a new character: Derakeer.
A Derak is a simple 'gun' carried by the Engineers who build them. The sculpt is far from finished and needs a lot of detailing, but I think he's coming along well so far. Sadly there is a little bit of scale creep with this guy, so he is obviously a slightly larger breed than his compatriots...

That'll do for the moment, although I did take a few photos of my painted Warmachine Khador and Hordes Circle units that might do for another post...
