Dragontooth Personalities - P2 Goblin Captains

 

Just a quick post to put up another of the P range finished (barring varnishing). Possibly sculpted by Michael Katok? Not the nicest of figures to paint and my mojo was sorely tested but, hey ho, at least they're done. 

Not the greatest of paint jobs I'm afraid... I'm determined to get the whole of the P range painted at some point!

Dragontooth Personalities - P11 Swordswoman

 

Another one down... I've been trying to paint her for a long time but she totally wiped my mojo until the other day when I changed the colour scheme. Still not the best sculpt (quite a few are like the proverbial Marmite ie love 'em or hate 'em) but she's done. Just need varnishing now.

That's it for now!

Dragontooth Personalities - P24 Rachir the Red Archer

 

Another one of Tom Loback's sculpts finished at last... I've managed to pick up examples of all the range now barring the P43 Celtic Wizard. If you have one please get in touch! The Rachir was another one based on the Elric books with a slight name change. A lovely flowing sculpt but not an easy one to paint although I'm happy with the final result. Just varnishing to go.

More later, keep yourselves safe.

Isolation painting... it's not all bad...

Well, I hope you're all keeping well and safe during these harrowing times... I get out once a day; in the morning to walk the hound for an hour or so but then it's staying in for the rest of the day. I shop about twice a week and keep in contact with my partner by phone... living on my own makes it quite stark although my two munchkins do visit (currently allowed) from their mum's nearby. I've been doing a evening live feed on Facebook, wittering on about painting and miniatures in general but haven't worked out how to export the videos to YouTube or here. There is a great hobby community out there and it keeps me sane... well, as sane as I could ever be of course. If you 'do' Facebook then the Old School Miniatures group is here. If you don't then join in, it's really therapeutic... 

Edit... found how to save the videos so they're now on my YouTube channel... lol, at this rate I'll become a vlogger.

On to the minis completed this week;

Dragontooth P18 Swordsman Roland

Roland has been half painted for 10 years or more... this has been great motivation for me to finally finish some WIPs...

 Ral Partha Halfling from the AD&D 3 Stage Character set...

Premier Productions 'Conquest' Saracens by Al Charles. This was a 40mm range of Saracens and Templar style knights. A nice range, I've a few more to do and a few more to find of course. Unfortunately I put them on different sized bases... oops...

Ral Partha Fantasy Collector Series 02-021 Deep Elf Firing Bow...

Edit; still available from Iron Wind Metals, now a Sea Elf.

Finally, an Old Glory Trojan from the command pack, available here.

That's it for now. Time to have a quick shower and take the hound out... she's getting a little bored although we do have a small back garden she can be let loose in at least. Keep safe everyone and keep isolating where you can.

Dragontooth, P27 Subotai the Mongol.

Well, I finally got another of the Personalities range painted... still needs varnishing but as I'm now using spray cans (Windsor & Newton) I need to wait till I've a few pieces to do... could be a while of course. A lovely figure to paint... full of Tom Loback's usual flair for the athletic posing. 

More of the range painted on previous posts here (scroll down to the older ones).

I'm still missing these;

P42 Elfin Thief or Adventurer

P43 Celtic Wizard

P48 Celtic Warrior Prince

P50 Dwarf Warrior in Chainmail

If you have any of them to trade or sell please let me know....

Dragontooth Personalites - P41 Halfling Magician

Well, in an effort to find my hobby mojo I decided to tackle this little guy. A Tom Loback sculpt from the P range of personalities - mostly supplied as a mounted and foot version, the exception being; 

P1 Wizard, Ranger & Dwarf King

P2 Goblin Captains

P3 Pegasi (Winged Horses)

P4 Hippogriff & Unicorn

P5 Saurian Capt. & Champions

P6 Superhero & Superheroine

P7 Dungeon Feast

P7 Dungeon Feast (an 'interesting' Mike Gilbert sculpt) was retired and replaced by the first of the duo sets, Adventurer or Thief.

There are 51 codes in the range so 45 of these duos to collect...I'm still missing P42 Elfin Thief or Adventurer, P43 Celtic Wizard, P48 Celtic Warrior Prince and P50 Dwarf Warrior in Chainmail so if you have any of them to trade or sell please let me know. The full range can be seen here.

Tom sculpting in wax using a paint brush which gives his characters of lot of ebb and flow in their movement. I am totally addicted to his work of course....

Still needs varnishing of course but it was a thoroughly enjoyable set to paint. 

As always; enquiries@deartonyblair.co.uk

Dragontooth, P22 Gladius, Roman Hero.

One more down, 47 codes to go.....hey, what else am I going to do? Another lovely sculpt by Tom Loback. Still needs varnishing of course......I seem to have a bit of a backlog in that area...... how unlike me....
