Can I have some more?

Well it seems I’ve gotten to the point where I need to order some more minis since all three of my crews are done.

First up, the crew that first made me want to start playing this game… the Red Chapel Gang

Next up, Nicodem’s crew.

And lastly is my Criid crew with some reinforcements

Malifaux – Rotten Belles and others

Still working on these fantastic minis… here are a few more updates

First up, is one of The Mad Hatter’s Belles… This was actually interesting to paint.

Next up, Sonnia Criid

Last but not least, The Executioner.

Malifaux – Slapping on paint

Slapped on more paint last night.

Primed Seamus, 2 Belles, Nico, 2 Zombie Punks, 1 Death Marshall.
Started painting one of the Belles, and have the dress and skin pretty much done.
The Death Marshall has his Coat and coffin painted up
I finished Sonnia, almost done Sam, and the Executioner.

Once this bunch is done, I’ll work on some more terrain… and then I’ll be ready to give a few demos to the gaming club.

I’ll try to get some pics taken and uploaded tonight

Malifaux – Assembly line

Here are a pics of 2 of my other crews:
RedChappel
Seamus’ Red Chapel Gang

Nico
Nicodem’s zombies

I’ll be priming these guys today and since I don’t have time to to slap paint, cause I have to go visit the brother-in-law for his bday.

Malifaux – Painting Progress

So I’ve been painting and assembling my Malifaux minis. They definitely are gorgeous minis, but tiny and fiddly…

Here are a few WIP shots

I also took a group shot of all the Malifaux minis I have

Malifaux – Ashes to ashes

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust… here lies the body of…

So Malifaux as a game, seems to use more tokens/counters then most games I’ve played. I don’t have an issue with this… Actually it gives me an excuse to model more stuff.

So Each master and henchman has spells… so as learned from Warmachine and Hordes, it’s easier to have nice little spell effect counters on the table than to have a dice or bead or other generic item.

So… I started work on counters for each spell and effect in the game which I will use plastic sheets called Shrinky Dink to make.

Different Masters also use different tokens(which conveniently need to be the size of a small base), such as corpse, blood and junk… The Resurrectionists which are one of the two factions I’m collecting use Corpse counters… so I started to make these tombstones.

CorpseCounters

They’re supper easy to make and look great, I’ve made about 6 so far but will probably make more. I’ve also taken a bunch of pictures in order to make a tutorial on how to make these.

Malifaux – Guests Checkin and they sure checkout!

An other weekend is over and an other building is approaching completion in my little mining town of Malifaux.
The Grand Central Hotel is mostly assembled and the denizens of Malifaux are gathering to see what the hoopla is.

I’ve added a balcony (which needs to be completed) to help with different levels for the games… windows from all sides.
As with all the buildings I’m making, you can remove the building from the base and use the floor plan.

I’ve also started work on some tents… made from a plasticard base, metal paper clip frame and canvas as the tarp.

Malifaux – oh that’s going to stain!

So the first three buildings are now stained (painted) and I have to say I love the look.
Here’s some shots taken from my phone… sorry… I was too lazy to set up the tripod and one of the good cameras (I’ve been cleaning all day cause the monster-in-law is coming over tonight)

Malifaux – First Arrivals in town

Criid I was pleasently surprised when I got home from work today and found a package from Meeplemart, which I had only ordered Saturday night (great service)

So now I have Sonnia Criid, Samael, their witchlings and death marshals… Figures the Guild shows up in my Malifaux first.

The packaging is ok, simple little box for the battle group, filled with foam, each miniature in an individual bag with it’s base (witchlings were all in the same bag), the cards are fold outs and small, but nice also in their own little bag. The minis are well sculpted but seem rather small for 32mm… until you actually place them next to other minis.

Only wish my RedChapple gang I ordered from The warstore would of arrive, so I could have my decks and my main army.

Needless to say I’ll be ordering from Meeplemart again… fast and cheap!

Malifaux – There’s a new Sheriff in town

So after getting home from work last night I started work on the next building for the board.
At first I was going to work on the Crazy Horse Saloon… but ended up making the Sheriff’s office… with bars so the prisoners can’t escape :)
